The Scoop for May 29, 2020

Without a doubt, the John Wick movies have been a surprise hit and pretty awesome. But John Wick wasn’t the original name for that first movie. It was supposed to be called SCORN. But then this happened…
Keanu Reeves kept calling it John Wick because he couldn’t remember the real name of the movie. Which makes sense. I mean I’m pretty sure that’s how most of his movies were named. Speed? Yeah, that was supposed to be called Runaway Bus. Point Break? That was Surf Cops. So yeah. Let Keanu name his movies.


During the lockdown, we’ve missed a lot of things. Going out to eat, seeing movies, and seeing live shows, like comedy. And we’re not the only ones. Comedians like Chris Rock have missed performing.
Um, Chris. You’re talking to a microphone. Maybe one of the first trips after quarantine should be to a therapist. Just a thought.


If she gets her way, there will be wedding bells in Pamela Anderson’s future.
Now, I don’t think she’s currently dating anyone, but she’s ready to walk the aisle again, and this time she means it. She says, quote, “Just one more time. One more time only. Only!” Yeah. Good luck with that.
