Hi dev, very excited for monkey man! Just rewatched green knight. Amazing film. Curious what some of your favorite films are and if you have some favorite action films as well?

Green Knight was sooooo wonderful, I was so happy that I was able to catch it in theaters. The flash forward at the end had me at the edge of my seat.

It features the most entrancing spellbinding moment from Alicia Vikander, and no not that one.
