I watched Some Like it Hot for the umpteenth time last night.  Still and eagle or maybe even a hole in one on a par 4!  One of the best comedies ever.

The Grandmaster Saw this earlier in the year, but it's available on iTunes now and will watch it again tonight. This movie defies categorization. It looks like an action movie, but it's more an

Recently rewatched Heist - Hackman, DeVito. What a great old fashioned heist movie.

Pardie. :D Actually I would give it a birdie. I just realized it now, but kind of a kids version of the Matrix. I think like a turtle. [VIDEO] [/VIDEO]

Rush also gets a solid birdie. I don't care about racing, but it's a good character study, and based on real life. It's pretty incredible, the lives of both men, and made for a good two hours. I wasn't bored by any portions.

I watched Rush yesterday. I too don't care for racing in any way, but was entertained from start to finish ( slight pun intended). Easily a birdie, and arguably an eagle in my opinion. This is a movie I'll enjoy watching a few times. I give The Short Game an even par. Some of the kids were adorable. Some of the parents, not so much.

$125 dollars later, my household went to see The Lego Movie tonight. We all enjoyed it, so I'm giving it a par. Also watched Frailty for the first time in years on Netflix. Loved the overall feel of the film, even if it seemed a bit clunky in spots. Definitely a par.

Is that the movie with Otis the Axe? If so, yeah, great movie.

Watched Ender's Game the other day and found it to be pretty entertaining.  Solid par.

I'm very curious, it was a great book that became a pretty far out series of books later on. @Golfingdad , have you read the book?

You needn't worry. ;)  I have not read the book.  I actually wasn't even that interested in seeing the movie ... but the wife read the books and was a big fan, which is why we watched the movie.  Turns out I liked it more than her, I think, probably because I didn't have any expectations going in.

She gave me a little background afterwards - such that I know what Matt is referring to - but she wasn't sure if they were planning on continuing to make the movies or not.

Hmm, from the previews it looks like the finished the primary story, but then it branches off into a lot of different things. I seriously should pick up those books again.

His Homecoming Saga was pretty cool too. Very good author but some of his social and political views are pretty reprehensible IMO.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.

      Of course there's not a simple or knowable answer here. But the whole Caitlin Clark phenomenon is a nice example IMO. Suddenly there was wall to wall media coverage and national attention and... the women's tournament got similar ratings to the men's and much higher ratings than the men in the final four. With every indication that there will be some portion of the uptick that remains going forward. And there's the whole element that Sue Bird brought up. That basketball needed a pretty enough white superstar guard. One who looks like the "cute little white girls" that describes most of the soccer USWNT that's been able to achieve much higher popularity than any version of women's basketball, which is dominated by black players and none of any race who could be described as little... I do think women's sports are in a good place to start taking off more though. It's really only in the coming 5-10 years that the majority of girls will start to come of age with post Title IX grandmothers (as in their grandmothers were allowed to be serious athletes). I don't follow men's or women's basketball much, but in golf for sure the women's tour has gotten much deeper over the past 20 years and only looks to keep going in that direction. I've heard the same about women's basketball. And the patriarchal attitudes that socialized girls out of sports and everyone out of women's sports fandom aren't gone but have def diminished.
