Nothing has made me feel more confident about the wolves chances this season than Kirk Goldsberry saying he wasn't a believer in the Lamelo trade on the Zach Lowe show

its so embarrassing for our federal government to be this intertwined with a fake college like Hillsdale. They refused federal funding rather than comply with the Civil Rights Act

The wolves currently have no players on their roster who are older than me. They started the season this way in 2022 but eventually traded for mike conley. I don't think the cavalry is coming this year

Heaven's Gate (1980): Ok this movie is way too long. But in my opinion they should have taken out all of the gun fights and made the entire movie out of roller-skating fiddlers. The movie isn't called "The Johnson County War." Its called Heaven's Gate because that is where they go roller-skating

Out of Sight (1998): My first time seeing it on the big screen. Its crazy that we got this and Jackie Brown (1997) in back-to-back years. Two nearly perfect movies imo. I really don't know which one I like better.

Zodiac (2007): Saw this on the big screen during Regal's "Month of Movies" repertory showings. I'm pretty sure that I saw this in the theatre during its original run after it got a glowing notice in the St. Paul Pioneer Press. I've also seen it a few times since, I find it so deeply rewatchable

A couple years ago when i was teaching at ODU more than one student in one of my courses described themselves as a "Helen Keller conspiracy theorist" and i had to say "are you fucking stupid" as politely as possible

Buffalo '66 (1998): I loved the movie when its just Gallo & Ricci but whenever anybody else (especially Huston & Gazzara) gets involved I found it a bit too broad. Gallo clearly has style, the split-screen stuff & the cross-cutting as Gallo/Ricci get closer & closer in bed are sublime.

2015 Gorgui Dieng would honestly be so good as a third big who could play backup center or play 5 minutes a game with Rudy (in 2026 he extends his range from 18 feet to the 3pt line)

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

ok here's the situation: a mini-series isn't TV. There is a reason that they have their own Emmy category. I love Chernobyl (2019) as much as the next guy but it isn't a TV show

Shallow Grave (1994): One of those movies basically designed in a lab to appeal to me. I love when bumbling criminals get in over their head after coming into more money than they know what do with. Plus a director in their feature debut trying really hard...that's the Blood Simple (1984) formula!

Red Road (2006): Its often hard for me to really assess movies that are ugly on purpose. Andrea Arnold is aping the aesthetics of cheap digital security cameras and much of the film is focused on urban squalor and it certainly DOES look ugly in a very well-composed way.

The Right Stuff (1983): About 90 minutes in, the screen abruptly cut to black after the astronauts convince Von Braun to add a window to the capsule. I thought it was a pretty avant garde way to end the movie but it turns out that I just had to flip the DVD over & there was another 90 minutes left

reminded of something I stumbled on during covid
a side by side comparison of two essentially identical shots in John Ford's The Searchers and the Bugs Bunny cartoon Robot Rabbit, which came out three years BEFORE Ford's film. on the left is the famous shot of John Wayne as Ethan Edwards returning to the wilderness as seen from his reunited family's porch, on the right is Bugs Bunny in the exact same position. as far as I know this indication that John Ford plagiarized Bugs Bunny was discovered by myself.
