Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, birdie. Very cool visual effects, good cast… Just way, way better than I expected. Loved it. Not a movie you watch a few times (or even twice), but very cool once.

  This popped up in my Amazon Prime cue last night, and I'd never seen it, so I figured why not?

I'll give it an easy par.  Visually it's a birdie, but it loses a stroke for reminding what a dick i was in my twenties.

Ant-Man and the Wasp - birdie for me, but I like Superhero movies.  Lots of action and laughs.  Michael Pena knocked it out of the park in his role.

Duplicity, birdie.

A good bunch of twists with some reasonably good acting. An older movie (2009), but one I enjoyed re-watching. I don't remember much from the first watching (probably in 2009 or '10). I remembered a few parts. But it was almost new to me.

Hold The Dark.  Par

   Interesting Netflix movie about some messed up stuff in Alaska.  I liked it, although it was very dark, and kind of gory in spots.

Lol! Agree. However Pet Cemetery 2 was quite a disappointment for me. I give PC 1 a Birdie....PC2 a double bogey.

However....John Lithgow? Awesome. Gywnne a classic...but Lithgow top notch in my book.

Pet Sematary 2 was a horrible, horrible film.  So bad that it's one of those movies where when its over you're pissed because it's an hour and a half of your life you'll never get back.

A Star Is Born - Easy Birdie

Bradley Cooper was great as the trouble and addicted Jackson Mayne and Lady Gaga was also great as Ally.  If you take a lady to see it, bring tissues.

The Greatest Showman, which I didn't know was a musical… I give a bogey to. Partly because the singing was so clearly not legitimate (I'm not saying the actors didn't sing the songs… it was just so much worse than other musicals I've seen in terms of believing that they're actually singing in the action), and because… it was so badly misrepresentative of PT Barnum.

Meh.

‘Tusk’

Birdie. Nice bizarre film by Kevin Smith. Pretty much a rip from ‘The Human Centipede’. The dialogue from the character played by Bryan Cranston is quite entertaining. And the quirky detective played by a surprise appearance by Johnny Depp was a bonus.

Venom -tap in birdie

I did not think this would be very good...no spider man. Delivered in a big way. Venoms backstory was legitimate, scary, funny, sad, and real (as in believable for sci fi fiction). I never really missed spidey

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went up to Erie, PA. Shorten backswing and control the right elbow Way more wrist flexion from top of swing. Feels like I’m hitting the ball with the toe end of the club. Club still travels back and behind me. In the downswing, the right hip needs to travel down towards the ball as the left hip goes up. Right knee needs to gain more flex as the left loses it. Gain right side bend with hips not upper body.

      Day 29: played 9. Solid +3, with obvious improvements to come in tee shots. Iron play was much better, short game very good. Might be rounding into form. Also had a solid range season after the round. Started with driver, and then went to working on my priority piece after that. Videos looking decent, although still could use improvement.

      Who Else Hates Scrambles?

      Each year I participate in a two person scramble.  It's flighted after the first 18.  We play 54 hikes over 3 courses.  There is still opportunity for sand bagging.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      A fairly solid +7 round yesterday with a double/triple bogeys on 15th/17th for my two blow up holes. Still not up to full speed but there is sufficient distance to tackle a dry 6,000 yard course. Anyway, I often forget that the golf swing is sideways motion with a left side leading focus for majority of the BS and DS (for a right hander). That is the focus here dynamically active left side thigh, hip and upper torso with a low, below plane left hand to start the takeaway and a good left last stretch at P4 with hands. It is almost like my left side is shoving my right side out of the way and behind to start of the takeaway. I think if I were to get on a set of force plates now to compare against my motion a year ago (hypothetically since I didn't back then) I would show some good improvement. Hmm... I wonder who has a set that I can access..🤔😉
