sidcow Posted December 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 2, 2021 Flicking trough channels whilst finishing my wine before bed, I've stumbled across Caddyshack. I mean such a diobolical film is unlikely to cheer me up but I'm praying the "Well... We're waiting" scene will crop up in my 20 minute window. I must have seen it 30 odd years ago because nobody watches that film twice but I would have zero conception (as would anyone) of it's cultural significance decades later. As I write the villain of the piece is on screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the gretest film involving golf ever and will never be surpassed. I've watched it many more times than I've actually played golf The second greatest film involving golf is Happy Gilmore and its not even close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 2, 2021 There are some brilliant continuity errors with scene after scene clearly fluctuating from mid day to late afternoon to evening to mid day and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 2, 2021 And there it is, finally I can go to bed. Ironically I'd alway thought from the GIF it was a night time scene, but it's actually one of those mid day scenes cut to a late evening shoot with trees in the background Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve obviously got some ropey old computer program translating the commentary into text and it’s hilariously bad. yeah. They came up (God knows how or why) on when I was watching it, too. But what cheered me up was I said "Hey Siri, turn off subtitles" and they went away, like magic. Newfanglement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is fair enough as I usually dismiss her with a shut the **** up. Edited December 3, 2021 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The speaking to Siri thing is all well and good when it works, but reminds me of one for TTTPYO thread. Some absolute scrotum called Luis Masters has launched about a dozen albums, on Spotify, all called "Daily Mix 1", "Daily Mix 2", etc. They've all been launched in the last year, and I'm absolutely certain he's done it purely to earn money from accidental plays when Google/Siri/Alexa plays those shitty albums instead of the Spotify playlists. I honestly wish eternal pain and misery on Luis Masters for the series of brief inconveniences he's added to my life. word removed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
