I don’t care much for basketball but fck me the Last Dance is pretty exhilirating
Netflix
Jules72 Yeah, same. I’m actually saving the last episode til tomorrow night once work’s out of the way. I’m amazed at what an ordinary bloke he is off the court.
The sum total of my basketball viewing was in the early 90s when bbc1 showed it for a while, think it was on a friday night. Always remembered the bulls from then because of jordan. After some of your reviews about this i started watching it last week, what a fucking tremendous documentary. Really enjoying it. 3 left to watch now.
For every yin there is a yang!
White lines is fucking ballix! Apart from the filthy, milfy, spanish ma wanking off the priest. She is a tremendous piece of kit.
It is fucking awful. There has never been a clubbing related film, or series that has been worth watching.
What’s Millsy’s take on The Last Dance?
The Epstein doc is on Netflix today. I bet Zack is binge watching.
Da 5 Bloods, the new movie by Spike Lee, is now in Netflix. Includes the Finnish actor Jasper Pääkkönen, who played the psycho so well in Blackkkklansman. 90 % fresh in RT now.
Homegrove Hopefully gonna watch it tonight.

Holy fuck. What a shit film that was.
Dubman speaks the truth. Fucking woeful. I can’t believe that Spike Lee was behind it. It was like a piss-take of Tropic Thunder.
There should be criminal charges for positive reviews in the media.

I can barely think of a worse film.
Dead to me me is pretty good, well written and good central relationship

Best show on Netflix by a mile.
On reflection i’ve decided to upgrade my vote for Da 5 Bloods to 2/10 as i tried watching an even worse film last night called The Last Days of American Crime. It’s so bad i had to bin it after 20 mins. ⅒
I didn’t even bother watching the end of Da 5 Bloods.
Even Mark Kermode gave it a very mixed review…. guess the quality of the film is why Spike Lee didn’t wait for lockdowns to be fully exited and cinemas to open (if you have a sure-thing on your hands you are going to wait)
Jules72 Peter Bradshaw needs shooting.

I see he gave it a 5* review. He must’ve dozed of at the start then woke up at the end.
Watching a Bourdain programme, Parts Unknown.
Hold tight for feedback!
Didn’t have time for tv before lockdown Dave.
Too busy absolutely ledging it in the world’s finest discothecas.

Bourdain is the only celeb death that I can think of that actually bothered me. Seemed like he had figured it out after many years of personal turmoil. But I guess he hadn’t. Shame. I guess Kobe Bryant’s death, too. Just ’cause I’ve been a basketball nut since I was a kid and I don’t remember a time as a sports fan where Kobe wasn’t a part of it.

Seems like a troubled man.
Can see it on the show.
jonattonyeah bourdain seemed like a genuinely good guy too, just couldn’t get passed his demons.
He visited a couple of spots some friends worked at in San Francisco (Comstock and Alembic being two off the top of my head). When the cameras weren’t on, they said he was more interested in shooting the shit with the bartenders, the back of the house line cooks, the food runners, over owners or investor-types. Had a genuine appreciation for the grind of the work more-so than the fancy outcome. Said he came across as just a genuine, curious dude who had a way with words.
