Finished A Man on the Inside on Netflix (Mike Schur was the man person behind this who also was the main person writing the good place and also wrote for the office)

Its a good solid show, not as strong for me as The Good Place but also tackles some interesting topics and if you enjoyed the office, good place or parks and rec then I would give the show a shot.

I saw it in 70mm at Loews State 2 back in the day and liked it. Watched it recently an d realized its really not that good after all

I like CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG (the Sherman Brothers' songs are very catchy, and it's got a nice sense of scale as a production), but:

1. We don't need a new/another adaptation.
2. MAKE A NEW JAMES BOND MOVIE PLEASE.

Has there been another take on the IP since the movie I missed? Because I'm in my 50s, was before my time, I only know it vaguely because my mom loved it. At a certain point, there's simply no nostalgia for an IP anymore. And if it's riddled with dated stereotypes, why not just start fresh?

It had a run as a theatrical production in the 2000s.
