Full Swing: The Game Has Changed Part 1 (2024)
Season 2, Episode 1
3/10
Not a great start
6 March 2024
Not very entertaining and presented a straw man argument and false narrative. Nobody thought the LIV tour guys were gonna drop off right away. Just dumb. If any drop off, it would be from them not caring (unlikely for most), or long term effects of the different format, money, and less overall competition. Again, nobody thought these guys were gonna suck all of the sudden just because they took the bag. Koepka has always been great when healthy. Some real no-value-added commentators too. Hope they can reclaim last season's form or I'm out. This episode seemed like it was written by the Saudis just to pump up the LIV tour.

Still gives me chills

Great little documentary. One of the most amazing stories in all of sports history. Some good early stuff and footage beyond they titular game. Also some interesting stuff after the win, even from the Russian side. Tretiak is one of the best goalies of all time but he did have a down game. US probably loses that game 9 out of 10 times but that's why they play the games. Makes me wish they still had amateurs in the Olympics but that's neither here nor there. Herb Brooks was the man for that place and time. Highly recommended if you can watch it. Bought the dvd on Amazon for a pretty reasonable price.

Barry: 710N (2022)
Season 3, Episode 6
4/10
Surprisingly bad episode in an increasingly down season
3 June 2022
Maybe the next episode will paint this all as a dream or something, but until that happens this is kind of a joke. So far, s3 has taken a weird turn for the worse after 1 and 2 were so great. Gene just forgiving ? Barry screaming at sally ? These are pretty silly plot points. Hopefully they can turn it around but this season is not looking good.

Unhinged (I) (2020)
5/10
Protagonist so terrible, you root for Russell
19 May 2021
Pretty awful movie. The lead woman is a terrible person. She doesn't have solid work and is constantly late taking her kid to school (which is maybe 20 Mike's away?) because she oversleeps. As an adult. Yea. She's poor, so she buys lottery tickets. She's a terrible driver. Multiple times in the movie she makes simple driving errors that are super dangerous. It almost seemed like the director was doing this on purpose, but then the rest of the movie is cliche and stupid that doubt it. Watch for Fatimus Maximus but that's about it.
