Jiji Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Just adding more praise for Tower. I feel like I was hit by a brick to the guy after watching it. Tremendous. 1
RIPPA Posted April 20, 2017 Author Posted April 20, 2017 Abacus: Small Enough to Jail I am ready to flip a motherfucking table and all I have watched was the trailer 1
J.T. Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 First Tower and now Abacus. What is it with PBS making documentaries that will either send me running for Kleenex or make me want to punch some random person in the face? 1
WholeFnMachine Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I just watched Tower this morning, goddamn.

Curt McGirt Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 Those last two trailers give me absolutely no hope for the human race (not as if I already had any anyway) 2
Curt McGirt Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Adding to my last comment: Yeah, I need a table right now.

Curt McGirt Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 The LA '92 doc is playing on Nat Geo right now and I'm glad the storm outside is cutting the satellite feed because I need another table to flip EDIT: Finished it. Make that two... no, three... no, four tables. I'm glad one of my favorite albums ever came in the mail so I can just listen to that and my PMA will get some bars on it
RIPPA Posted May 2, 2017 Author Posted May 2, 2017 Hoo Boy - Oliver Stone interviews Putin I am sure this will go well
bazzil Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Hopefully it's not as awkward as when Putin shows up to talk to the top 3 drivers after the Russian Formula 1 race every year.
J.T. Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 At least Putin is wearing a shirt and didn't arrive on horseback.
Curt McGirt Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Stone: "He really can't just dump me in a river, right? Right? Somebody please tell me I'm right. There are cameras everywhere in here!" Vlad: "This will be fine propaganda. Then we can dump him in the river later."
Curt McGirt Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Obit. Looks like this will be a contender in the poll Also, and I know the clips were milliseconds, but I was shocked at how some of those people were typing.
Tabe Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 If you're in the mood to see a movie that makes you want to punch something, give Murder in the Park a try. It tells the story of a 1982 Chicago double murder for which Anthony Porter was convicted. Thanks to a crusading Northwestern professor and his class, who videotaped the confession of another man, Porter's conviction was overturned, and that overturn was the final nail in the coffin for the death penalty in Illinois. It makes for an incredible story. Except it's false. The confession was coerced, the professor and his students lied, the DA ignored evidence and more. The result is that an innocent man was framed and sent to prison, while a guilty man became the poster child for wrongful convictions. At least the innocent guy eventually also got cleared.
Curt McGirt Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 The real killer couldn't go back to prison because of double jeopardy, right?

Curt McGirt Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Putin has the patience of an elephant (and is as lethal as a hippo). Whenever Stone disappears, we'll know. And of course, Putin drives himself
Dolfan in NYC Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Damn. That made me very happy to see. This is the tournament I mentioned in the NFL thread. They're now up to 36 open division teams with another 12 women's teams and the tournament is going strong. The movie is about the 2010 tournament, which shows you how long my buddy Seth has been trying to get this documentary off the ground. 1
