About the world's oldest language...
ReplyDeleteI would think it would be the language of the people of North Sentinel Island. Although no westerners know the language, the tribe has been isolated for an estimated 60,000 years!

ReplyDeleteWhy do we need three 'Willie Wonkas'?
ReplyDeleteIt's not so much what we need, it's what the movie-makers keep making. And the only reason they keep making them is because we the movie-going public continue to buy tickets to see whatever hot name is in them, no matter how crappy some of these remakes/reboots are. Heck, Taylor Swift could make a two-hour movie of her doing nothing but reading aloud from back copies of "National Geographic", and it would still make millions because the Swifties would climb all over themselves to fork over their money.
