What happened to the forum for...?

Red Sparrow (podcast) cancelled

Hey everybody, 

My grandpa had a stroke last night and is in rough shape, and has been in increasingly declining health for the past week. Cecily and I left early this morning to be with my family in Indianapolis at the hospital. Unfortunately with Jim out of town we don't have a lot of options to keep our movie schedule for tonight.

I may be able to do Lunch and the other stuff tomorrow, we'll see. I know a lot of people might be tempted to tell me not to worry about it, and I want to assure everyone I'm not worried about anything. If I'm recording or in front of the camera or whatever it's because I like to work and it's what I want to be doing to keep me in a good place.

As for my grandpa, he's two weeks shy of 90 and has had a long and happy life, and he's surrounded by his six kids, thirteen grandkids, and god knows how many great grand kids at this point. We all hope he rallies, but if not he's peaceful and not in any pain. My mom is here and actively shunning my sister and me, which is super fun, but everybody else is giving us lots of love and support so it's fine. 

Thanks in advance for your understanding and support.

    I'm sorry for you grandpa, and I'm sorry for the added awkward family dynamics.

    I'm glad you've found a career that can potentially be a part of your self-care (and which has brought a lot of fun, entertainment, and insight to us all). Best wishes to you and yours.

    When I saw the thread title I thought the movie itself was cancelled and was really curious how that came about  :)

    You and your family will all be in our thoughts and prayers through this difficult time. We appreciate the update, and please know you have the love and support of so many people! And if we can do anything, just give us a shout on the forums!

    PS-

    Well, your family here definitely won’t be shunning you!

    You are in my prayers, I’m glad your grandfather gets to be surrounded by so much love, he is a lucky man. 

    Take care of Cecily too (I know she’s probably already taking care of you), It’s so good that she is with you for this.

    That's a good point, my first thought was "Don't worry about it, you have more important matters to worry about", but  you're right, it's not for us to judge how you de-stress or relax or whatever.

    All the best to you and yours.

    Cecily "Russia is backwards". Which is the entire point of movies like these. Because it's one step closer to "Maybe... maybe we should bomb them?" 
    Going back for 50yr old tropes is the only thing backwards.
