What about the #ThinMan sequels?
Poster for It's A Wonderful World (1939)
Fans of the recent #TCM #ThinMan marathon might want to set their DVRs tonight to record #ItsAWonderfulWorld, a screwball delight also directed by "One-Take Woody" Van Dyke, featuring a Ben Hecht script, peak Claudette Colbert, and James Stewart as he was just becoming a star. #TCMParty
With #ThinMan movies all day long on TCM, it has been a parade of guest stars on Murder She Wrote. Several of the actors in these movies were in one or more episodes of the series. #TCMParty

Have a year where they show them in reverse order? That will do wonders for people’s hangovers. 🤭 #TCMParty #ThinMan

A big reason that the first four #ThinMan films are the best was the assured and stylish direction of the legendary Woodbridge Strong "One-Take Woody" Van Dyke (and now you know why he went by "W.S.") He could also rock a straw boater.

I will add (because the caffeine hasn’t kicked in yet) that nobody drinks Cosmos in the #ThinMan films; it’s always martinis or champagne cocktails… #TCMParty
There’s just nothing to change that would make #ThinMan better (though the erection joke from the novel wouldn’t be amiss). #TCMParty
We went with a sort of modified Scotch sidecar for #ThinMan; haven’t quite made a decision on After but the nuts haven’t been served yet. #TCMParty
And I wonder if there were a lot of nouns like “susPECTS” still being pronounced like their verb counterparts ca. 1934. #ThinMan #TCMParty
The delight this movie takes in The Business—Asta’s out-of-frame hydrant stop, drinks getting switcherooed while you’re listening to a conversation, myriad squinches of nose—gives me such joy. #ThinMan #TCMParty
I did not finish a book last year sold as “Nick & Nora but [insert genre]” because among the cocktails and mild horniness they seemingly forgot to include banter which was…unfortunate considering. #ThinMan #TCMParty
I missed the recent #ThinMan watch party, but it looks like this starts right where the first one ends? #cryptstatic
Had a fancy holidee meal on Boxing Day at which I ate a lovely roasted branzino, not remembering it would a precursor to the annual #ThinMan marathon. For branzino is but Italian for…sea bass. #TCMParty
I fell nasty 😈 in the shower this morning... when it's cold outside... heat is inside.

If #RobertDowneyJr wants to make more movies playing the kind of banter-rich chemistry he had with Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts in the #IronMan films, he should seriously consider reviving The #ThinMan franchise.
A #ThinMan marathon and my favorite #ShrimpFriedRice.
Mellow, as far as birthdays go but enjoyable nonetheless.
I hope my “New 52” is less sucky than DC comics’ was.
No dumb unnecessary costume upgrades, grittiness, OOC actions or reality reboots (bad ones, anyway).
Here’s to another solar rotation.
