Caught a few late night movies last night. The Kingdom-Par. I thought it was a bit sleepy and slow, solid ending though End of Watch-Birdie. Really enjoyable cop movie Shutter Island-Birdie. Not Scorsese's best, but enjoyable story and good ending(?) Juice-Birdie. Pretty good crime/hood movie. Tupac was a pretty decent actor

End of watch birdie? I can't see how the cartoon character bad guys could get that movie anything more than a bogey. Worst acting ever unless they were told they were supposed to be a parody.

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

Sharknado 2: The Second One .  I give this a solid par.  It was so bad it was good!  They definitely had the tongue & cheek aspect going with Robert Hayes from Airplane as the pilot in the opening scene and Judd Hirsch as the taxi driver.  Worth a watch.

I saw Guardians Of The Galaxy Friday. I'm easily giving it an eagle. It's not a perfect movie by any means, but manoman what an awesome time myself and the rest of the theatre I watched it with had. Tons (just about too much) of great humor, incredible effects ( and that was the 2D version I watched), and some suprising performances. W I might even miss a round of golf this week to go see it again in 3D.

Nice! I'm trying to go see it today. Marvel took a gamble with these characters and it's paying off.

I was surprised that Bautista did such a plausible job with the amount of dialogue he had.  His deadpanning was spot on.

Some dude mentioned Reservoir Dogs in the worst movie thread, so I decided to watch it(again). Upon further review, it still kicks ass. Eagle yo!

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned 22 Jump Street... I found it to be pretty freaking hilarious, of course it's in a very juvenile way, but that's the draw of the movie. Birdie for me. Depends on your sense of humor though.

When I saw the first trailer for Interstellar, I was meh, then the second, intrigued. With the third, so looking forward to this. Here's a fan made trailer that combines the three. Hope it doesn't turn out to be a Man of Steel.

Saw two movies over the past week..

Spiderman 2 - I don't like how it had nothing to do with the other spidermans and they basically rewrote the whole story from the start almost.. it had some interesting things, and a strange twist to the story line.. but I wouldn't give it more than a bogey.. really on the verge of a double bogey!

Non Stop - another airline / terrorist movie..  It didn't turn out like I thought it would.. other than the good guy finally getting his name cleared.. I just think I hate airline movies, but thought this one might be different.  double bogey, but if it wasn't for the main actor it would be a triple for sure!

Save the time and don't watch either!

Alright, here's a weird one. I watched "Under the Skin"

While watching it, I was thoroughly annoyed with the pace, overly dramatic music and the fact that they never bother to explain to viewer ANYTHING THAT'S GOING ON. If I had of posted this right after watching the movie I'd have given it a triple bogey, but here's the thing, I haven't been able to get the images and themes of this movie out of my head for going on three days now. The more I reflect on it, the more I like it...

Eagle. A very, very strange Eagle, but I'll be damned if it wasn't in fact an Eagle nonetheless.

Oh, and despite starring Johansson, it's a Scottish movie and very, very un-American in style.

Bonus Points were awarded for getting see Scarlette Johansson's tasty bits.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.

      Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
