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

Idiotocracy - Been hearing good things about this for years but unfortunately it was too dumb to be funny.  Bogey

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter - Random death and destruction; waaaay too much jumpy camera nonsense.  Par

Rogue One - Solid.  Par

Why Him - Thought this was gonna be weak but it was actually pretty funny.  Par

Read that book.  Creeped me out big time.  The guy (Stephen King) is a freak. He has to be in order to come up with such scary books.

Big time creep out book.

I grew up about 5 houses away from where he lives in Bangor Maine, although he didn't buy the house until I had moved across the river to Brewer.  You would run into him and his family from time to time all over the city,.  Most times when you would see him, if you didn't know it was Stephen King, you'd think he was a homeless person.

I saw a picture of him.  Nothing like I have imagined him to be.  He looks like, to put it bluntly, a geeky nerd.  But one hell of a story teller.

I guess that is not surprising given his imagination.  He is a very good story teller, I must admit.  However, his movies have not done well - except may be one.

Good sir, I beg to differ.  The Green Mile, Stand By Me, and The Shawshank Redemption are very good films.

I almost fell asleep watching Ghost in the Shell, go watch the original, forget the whitewashing, it's just bland and boring, no matter who you put in.

The original anime was haunting. I've no interest in seeing the remake, i.e., big budget CGI-laced plebeian trash.

It's interesting the term "whitewashing" has become part of the cultural zeitgeist (and here I thought my teenage daughter came up with that on her own).

Americanized versions of foreign films are usually crap. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo comes to mind as on such example. However, America still has (arguably) the very best filmmakers in the world. I recently watched Nocturnal Animals and I enjoyed that very much.

I stand corrected.  Didn't realize some of those movies were from his books.

Colossal - tap in birdie. Great blend of quirky, treatise on addiction and bullying and freaking monsters.

Your Name, tap in birdie. Another cross genre movie, like Colossal, with a great ending.

Everything Is Sadder with The Leftovers Music...LOL.

I like that show a lot but it's too funny that when my wife asks me what I watched I always tell her I'm watching "the depressing, I almost want to kill myself show tonight."  I was a big Lost fan and give anything Lindelof is involved in a try.  

Fairways and Greens.

The Nice Guys - Par. Surprisingly good even though we never heard anything about it. Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling. Gosling did a great job as the comic relief.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
