I don't know, if someone has managed to watch the Netflix documentary film about Michael Schumacher, but i HIGHLY recommend it. Even, if you are not a motorsports fan, you would very much enjoy a very heartfelt depiction of the struggles of one of the biggest sporting names of all time. 

 

A 2 hour movie would never be enough for such a prolific career, but i think they have done a brilliant job showing the best of his early life and then followed breakthrough in the 90s. The battles with Senna, Hill, Villeneuve and Hakkinen, making Ferrari a top contender after 20 years. And having Corrina there, narrating his personal life behind the screen, just pumped so much more emotion.

Very much looking forward to watching episode two.

I watched the entire season this weekend. I couldn’t really come up with the words to describe it.

A more colorful version of Saw is my description so far after one episode. More colorful and less gory.

 

Spoiler

Which is not to say less deadly, because damn.

Meanwhile I finished 6th season, the last one, of Lucifer and I can say that this season wasn't neccesary. The story could be closed in previous season, but despite this I was satisfated :p

I've already watched many japanese series/movies of this "death game" genre (which are quite a few) so I didn't fully experience the shock value or unpredictability (at some point you start to see the patterns in all these similar plots:p) but korean acting and characters are better than what you usually see in this type of thing.

I don’t want to say too much, but Dune is worth at least one viewing in my opinion.

Pretty good, but I didn't quite manage to lose the feeling that I should have read the book before.

I didn’t read the book either, though I do feel like I might pick it up at some point now. I’d definitely like to see more content in that universe.

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.  
    • Today : Jordan 3-0 Egypt  This team will surprise us                 
    • option no.2 for sure, as it's been all this shitstorm organized by the nhl owners through their embedded reporters   ps not that the north american audience looks really aware of the hockey rules and habits outside the nhl (and around their game, too, since they look not to know that just a couple of weeks ago they played 2 nhl matches on an ice sheet of the exact same size of Milan's olympic arena)
    • Are we supposed to take Daly's word for it or is this just public posturing to try and shame the Milan organizers (which they certainly deserve for all the delays) in order to threaten NHL participation?
