    HUNTERS on Amazon Prime video

    Watched the first two episodes last night. Pretty dark, although involving and creative. It's 1977 and a small (8 or 9) group of people have banded together to find and kill ex-Nazis living in the US. Al Pacino is the leader of the group. His voice keeps getting hoarser, and the eastern...

    New Clint Eastwood film

    Just watched the trailer....it's about Richard Jewell, the guy who discovered the bomb in Atlanta at the Olympics. Eastwood's viewpoint on the whole thing is abundantly clear, but he has become pretty good at telling a story. I know I'll go see it.

    *OFFICIAL 2019 GREEN BAY PACKERS THREAD*

    Last night's game was mostly good....players who made marks included Ty Summers, Darrius Shepherd, and Ka'Dar Hollman. I thought Kizer and Boyle both played OK, Kizer is just too inconsistent from one play to the next. J'Mon Moore missed his chance to solidify a roster spot....seems like he...
