Scarlett Johansson's tasty bits?! Eagle.

I'd be lying if I said that that didn't play at least a small role in my decision to rent it in the first place. :whistle:

Really? Maybe it's just me, but not much was shown. Yes, she was in her birthday suit, but if you're gonna watch this just for that, I think you might be disappointed, say compared to Helen Hunt in her last movie , 9 Songs. :-D

What did you think of the movie @nevets88?

I'd give it a tap-in birdie. It's not really sci fi or horror, but more social commentary. Very disturbing. That scene at the beach. I've seen Glazer's Sexy Beast, so I knew to expect something out of the ordinary. I liked movies like Holy Motors and Upstream Color, so take my rating with a grain of salt. Some of the scenes were shot with real people, not actors, they didn't know they were being filmed. I would think Lucy is more sci fi-ish and that has Scarjo in it.

Shucks. *Immediately crosses it off the "To-Watch" list*

There's plenty of nudity but not just of Scarjo. To me, it wasn't titillating. The movie is so disturbing though, it's like being served ice cream and rotted meat at the same time.

This is a Guinness commercial made by the director. Yes, a beer commercial, not a Calvin Klein ad.

UK version of Interstellar trailer. Some scenes not in US version. I am so pumped for this movie. Sci fi and Christopher Nolan and spaceships.

I give [b]Saving Mr.Banks[/b] a par. Although it's not a movie I'm sure I could watch again, I found this to be a very pleasant film. It's been a while since I've seen Emma Thompson in anything, and I must admit she still has great acting chops.

I watched "the double" with Jesse eisenberg last night, to describe with a golf shot it's 3 off the tee, straight into a bunker, 2 to get out, poor approach, skull across the green, a duff chip before picking the ball up and moving on! Awful! However, if you don't like me, it was brilliant! Be sure to watch it right till the end!

Watched Primal Fear (again) last night because nothing else was on.  It's just not the same the second time through.  (Don't want to give anything away so I won't expand on that)  Still a great movie though (Edward Norton's debut), and I'd give it a solid birdie.

I always liked that movie. Haven't seen it in a while but I have an uncanny ability to enoy the same movie time after time. My wife thinks I'm crazy (I wouldn't argue that point) and sometimes as she's walking through she'll say "How many times have you seen that movie?"

"Day of Siege" by Renzo Martinelli is a relatively well done movie. It seems to follow history pretty well.

Here is a quick synopsis of the History.

Watched "Blended" last night. Pretty decent movie for the family. Pretty funny chick flick, errrr romantic comedy, with some sad parts. I give it a lipped out birdie but worth a watch with the wife.

Watched "The Family" over the weekend. I give it a tap in par. Pretty typical action comedy that doesn't take it self to seriously. Just something to fun to watch, it was very enjoyable.

I convinced my wife to sit through The Worlds Fastest Indian the other night.  I've seen it numerous times, and I always seem to enjoy it, so I give it an easy par.

I watched Looper the other day.

It lipped out a birdie putt. Got a little too slow at times.

I also watched The Other Woman . Double bogey. Not even a little funny.

People have been telling me to see this and I finally did. Very intriguing. It's the $1 movie of the week on iTunes. Birdie. I wished it spent more time comparing the copy to the original though.

Probably mentioned before but looking back a few pages I didn't see it.

Watched Twelve Year a Slave tonight.

I would give it a birdie even though it was depressing. Some things humans can figure out a way to justify are disturbing.

    • I was on Golf Digest's Golf IQ podcast with Sam Weinman talking about being a "golf dad." https://www.golfdigest.com/story/5-golf-dads-advice I followed: Ian Poulter Mike Thomas Johnson Wagner Kevin Van Valkenburg Apparently the series was only five parts long, as they wrote up a summary article on it.   Golf Dad Part 5: Erik Barzeski on how to switch between father and instructor Podcast Episode · Golf IQ · March 2 · 35m Golf Dad Part 5: Erik Barzeski on how to switch between father and instructor — Golf IQ Erik Barzeski, Director of Instruction at Golf Evolution, is the father of a golf pro and an author, but also has the perspective of someone who works with juniors.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • 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.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
