villaajax Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 ESPN 30 on 30 series is brilliant, only saw a few of them but 2 Escobars is very good I did watch the Catching Hell: The Steve Bartman story, that was good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted July 1, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2013 Well you know me, I can't stand wrestling (it's fake, don't you know!?) but it's an interesting watch none the less. That it is. I had only just started looking in to backstage/shoot type things and was still pretty young when it came out and I was blown away when I watched it. Jake the Snake and Mick Foley's lives had/have a sadness I hadn't even contemplated/knew before I watched it. It was interesting the effect their actions had on their loved ones. In-ring for Mick Foley (And then how that carried in to his family life, his mobility etc) and out of the ring problems for Jake. Read "Have a Nice Day" if you haven't already. ESPN 30 on 30 series is brilliant, only saw a few of them but 2 Escobars is very good I did watch the Catching Hell: The Steve Bartman story, that was good. Yeah I've seen that too. Great stuff, poor guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_75 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Anyone seen Gasland? Yep, I've seen it. Frightening stuff. We shouldn't let Gas fracking anywhere near this country, oh wait.................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read it but never heard the audio book that you posted, so I'm going to to give that a listen. Thanks for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it bloody well would be, if people had a clue about it. Edited July 1, 2013 by CarewsEyebrowDesigner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I think the peasants have been offered 1% of profits from fracking. That'll be nice when the area they live in is ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I don't know his music but I heard he threw the keys out of a small plane his dad was piloting causing them to crash land. Yeah he's suffered from mental illness for most of his adult life. Which is all covered in the film, as is that incident. It's debatable if he's a genius or not, and I'd say his music would probably leave a lot of people scratching their heads, as to what the fuss is all about. I personally think he's brilliant, as is the documentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drat01 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Goal - 1966 film / doc about the World cup There was also one (I am struggling to remember the name) that was made by an Italian about Drunken Germans in Hamburg in the 60's / 70's - excellent stuff and insight on the world as it was then Edit: Found it - 'Mondo Cane" Edited July 3, 2013 by drat01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Exit Through The Gift Shop Can of worms. Because of the whole, is it fake or real thing? Having watched it before I realised there was a whole conspiracy thing going on with it, it did make me wonder if some of it was staged. Once I found out the controversy, I'm firmly on the side of saying it's a big hoax (very well made, and enjoyable, non the less). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I've mentioned it before, but Sound It Out, a documentary about my local independent record shop (and the last record shop on Teesside) is a really great watch. Sad, funny, nerdy, and inspiring. It also happens to be on BBC4 again, on Saturday night. Get it watched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
