Curt McGirt Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Watching that trailer makes me want to punch the wall. Watching the Little Richard trailer makes me want to turn into the Hulk and drive through the wall. Shit, probably both of them do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted April 7, 2023 Author Share Posted April 7, 2023 So apparently Hulu is going to do a documentary on Freaknik which if anything knows even a little bit about it then maybe Hulu isn't a strong enough platform to show how crazy it was.

Had no idea what this event was so did a quick read on Wikipedia. This line in its article cracked me up: "Large numbers of Atlanta police made it difficult to party in Freaknik or commit crimes."

It is the HBCU version of Spring Break at Lauderdale. Hopefully this documentary will go into the whole Greekfest thing at Virginia Beach aka the night I slept in a bathtub at the Holiday Inn because the National Guard was out in the street beating the shit out of black kids for doing the same shit that white kids did on Spring Break at Lauderdale. Greekfest was essentially Freaknik for HBCU kids that did not have the money to travel all the way to Atlanta. To this day, I have never spent a dime in Virginia Beach, nor do I plan to. If they don't want my money, I'll spend it elsewhere. Edited April 10, 2023 by J.T. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Moonage Daydream (the David Bowie doc) is doing the rounds on HBO and it is one of the best things ever. Ever. And I'm not even a huge Bowie fan, don't actually own any of his records. It's a landmark presentation. Your jaw will drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that I read somewhere that it's good, but not really anything in there for you if you already know a lot about Bowie. As I said this, I realized that I don't actually know that much about Bowie. I know the big career bullet points, but that's about it. And I do have a bunch of his records! So, anyway, that's a long way of saying I'm glad to hear that you dug it. I'm going to try to get to it really soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I just segued from watching the Donna Summer documentary into the Tina Turner documentary, both on HBO, which was a wild coincidence. Saw most of Donna's and pretty much all of Tina's because I HAD to switch over. Donna wrote way more songs I'm familiar with than I knew; she came off as a really funny, cheeky, seriously talented person. Shame about her death. Tina's doc covers a reaaaaaally long life and some totally crazy shit, of course. Excellent work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I just remembered two of the crazier things in Tina. 1. She met her husband when he was 30 and she was 50... and they didn't officially marry for 23 YEARS. 2. She wound up getting a deal on Capitol Records, but then there was a management shakeup, they didn't want her, and dumped her. When her manager went pleading for them not to, the response was that they didn't want an, and I quote, "old (N-bomb) douchebag" (!!!). The manager dropped to his knees and said he wouldn't get up until they resigned her. They finally said they'd release an album but would not support it in any way whatsoever, and that was it. They went on to make Private Dancer which sold millions and millions of copies. She ended up playing to over 160,000 people in Rio. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

Casey Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 The Michael J. Fox documentary, Still, is incredibly moving and emotional. My grandpa had Parkinson’s and died last year, so this brought up all kinds of feelings. Also makes me want to watch Spin City because I loved that show.

hammerva Posted June 9, 2023 Author Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) If the documentary series about the Duggar's is not enough to piss you off, MAX right now has a 3 part series on Jared from Subway Okay apparently this is just from a TV show based on the edits on it. Like the R Kelly ones on Netflix. So it might not be new Edited June 9, 2023 by hammerva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
