(BP) Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Dice is a land of contradictions. He didn’t have the foresight or the courage to get out from under his gimmick, but he could be transgressive within his lane with stuff like The Day the Laughter Died. But he’s 100x more interesting as an actor, both in his recent dramatic work and even his Diceman movies like Ford Fairlane or Brain Smasher.

HarryArchieGus Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Curious of this new McEnroe doc, but also reminded me of the underrated 2017 documentary 'John McEnroe: In the Realm of Perfection'... https://www.criterionchannel.com/videos/john-mcenroe-in-the-realm-of-perfection-trailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister TV Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 The Netflix Untold doc on the 1983 America's Cup is really good, I'm not into sailing but I found it extremely interesting mainly due to the competitive drive of everyone involved, if it was a 30 for 30 it'd be one of the best ones. I'm hoping they do a follow up doc on the 1987 America's Cup when Dennis Connor won it back, along with all the bs the following year when a New Zealand banker sued to challenge for the Cup and the hysterical race that followed. The Untold doc on Tim Donaghy was good but everyone involved/interviewed are lying scumbags so everything said has to be taken with a grain of salt.

Curt McGirt Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) Riotsville, USA So apparently the military made their own fake town and enacted fake riots to "train" police officers how to deal with them. The footage of these riots is all theirs. And there was also a PBS before PBS that was shut down for being too incendiary.

I am going to watch the shit out of that Sidney Poitier documentary. Rodney Ascher, director of the badass documentary, Room 237, about the phenomenon that was film analysis of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining, also directed a documentary entitle The Nightmare in 2015. It was inspired by his struggle with night terrors and sleep paralysis. This shit is far scarier than some of the legit horror movies I've seen. Now you know what I watch while I am on graveyard shift during the US Army training exercises I help to facilitate.

RIPPA Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Into The Deep Quote Filmmaker Emma Sullivan was looking to profile eccentric inventor Peter Madsen and his homemade rocket for a documentary. Instead, she captures incriminating footage that helped convict him of the murder of journalist Kim Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister TV Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 HBO's Hostages a 4 part doc on the Iran Hostage Crisis and the lead up to it was really good, this could have easily been 10+ hours long and with it being only 4 they blew past some major behind the scenes things.

Curt McGirt Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I probably wouldn't support this considering Wino's recent bat-shit-ness about Covid but they're honest enough to show him whacking out lines of either coke or more likely meth right there on camera. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 I haven't watched it yet but if you watched the HBO The Vow documentary series last year we are now getting the Part 2 version. Supposedly from the leaders and still followers of the cult right now. Based on the trailer it does seem to be a mix of people of still drinking the kool aid and people who realize how fucked up this ended up being 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) To continue the Dark Side of Comedy conversation, Greg Giraldo one was pretty crushing, I forgot all about him and didn't know he OD'd. Brett Butler's was a smidgen happier. She's a total badass. Any of the shit that happened to her could have made her a casualty too but she keeps trucking. She squandered something like $12 million dollars, that's when you take a header off a bridge, not accept a Gofundme. Tough. The last one coming up is on Maria Bamford.

hammerva Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 The Artie Lange one changed what I thought of him. I always thought he was just some fuck up who did what he did for fun. But knowing the incredible guilt he has for not being there when his father died at work. To the point he has the hose from that day hanging in his house. That will mess you up big time. Granted it doesn't explain all of his cocaine issues. Also realize that being on Stern was the best and worst thing that ever happened to him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
