A semi fascinating (to me) footnote to Elbert’s famous “North” review: the “I hated this movie” passage is in the third to last graph. He spends the final two graphs listing Reiner’s previous triumphs and searching for a way to absolve him of blame as to why the film was so awful.

If they wanted Cena to “elevate” someone on the way out, have him lose to Dom or LA Knight or Obii or someone else on the rise. Gunther doesn’t require that kind of “elevation.” He’s in a great spot already. And could have easily sustained the loss.

The pearl-clutching afterwards was so disingenuous.

But awesome match that started an all time great run. And that was an awesome Berserker reference by Riccaboni

Was it at least a satsuma?

It was called what he called it when I first played it in elementary school. I remember telling my folks about the game and the name and my mom turned white. She apparently wasn’t the only one, as the school banned it shortly afterwards.

Worked at a movie theater that showed this during the Summer of ‘94. So I saw it (or parts of it) more times than I’d like to admit.

I have not, but I was waiting to finish with work today to watch it. And now I will. Thanks.

I think many politicians fall into this category. I remember there was footage of George HW Bush being fascinated and perplexed by the barcode scanner in a grocery store in the early 1990s, after that tech had been around for years.

I watched the first episode and it was fine. Further establishes that he was always a sociopath. Also get some good vintage footage and photos; was not expecting to see Audio Two.

However, I’ve heard the second episode is a rehash of the same Biggie/Pac doc that we’ve seen countless times by now.

Thanks. I’ll likely stream it later. Probably better (and a quicker watch) than the Diddy doc that I’m fighting temptation to watch.

Who TF marked this comment as “rude”?

Is the movie any good?
