I skipped high school to see the second one
That’s a long movie. Assume you got a GED?

Can’t remember if I’ve mentioned it on here but I’m watching Deadwood right now. I’m getting close to finishing it. You may have already seen it, but if not, definitely worth the watch. In fact, it’s worth the watch even if you have seen it but it’s been a while. Very very good western, IMO.Thought the Bruce Lee 30 for 30 was really good. Really enjoyed seeing the old TV interviews with Lee. Could not get into the Lance Armstrong 30 for 30 though.
Been watching a lot of old westerns lately. Rewatched Tombstone again and it is my second favorite western behind Josey Wales. Val Kilmer and Kurt Russell are both great in it. Strong ensemble cast and I dug watching Powers Booth as a bad guy. Worth a rewatch if you have not seen it in a while. However, Joe Kidd was mediocre. The original True Grit with the Duke is strong, too. It was better than the remake, even though I am huge fan of the Dude.

I’m on the beginning of episode 2 of the Lance documentary and am liking it so far. I did t realize what a prodigy he was. Makes sense, I just didn’t know.
when you get done with deadwood let us know as i have a question i want to ask, but will wait until you have finished
I’ve watched it, Eight, although it was when it was aired originally so I may not remember everything well enough to answer correctly...
the question isn't specifically about the deadwood ending, but instead a trend in show endings
Gotcha. Yeah, wasn’t really happy with the way the show ended but I hear the movie attempts to do it justice. Have it dvr’d and will probably get to it this weekend, finally.
I actually really enjoyed the GOT final season (with the exception of the very boring and frustrating final episode). I rewatched the entire series as my wife watched it for the first time, and on the 2nd watching the final season was much better than when I watched it originally.
Agree in all your movie takes. At the start of the COVID madness, I got bored and watched Maverick (with Mel Gibson) for the humor of it. Also to see the mule skinner stunt. Amazing that guy pulled that offThought the Bruce Lee 30 for 30 was really good. Really enjoyed seeing the old TV interviews with Lee. Could not get into the Lance Armstrong 30 for 30 though.

I just could not get over the battle with the night king. They built up that story line for the entire series, and for that battle to end the way it did was super frustrating. I always thought the battle against the night king should have been the at the end of the season and the kings landing stuff should have been first.
Jon Snow constantly talking about how none of the politics mattering, the night king being the real battle, etc proved to not be true at all with the way it all played out. They were able to defeat him in one night with a somewhat small army.
Just finished Deadwood. You can tell by the way it ended that it wasn’t supposed to be the end of the series, just the end of that season. I don’t know the backstory, but I’m guessing it got canceled or there was some sort of contract disputes that prevented it from continuing.when you get done with deadwood let us know as i have a question i want to ask, but will wait until you have finished

I’m hoping I have time to watch the movie today so I can get better closure.
Defending Jacob on the new Apple+TV is a good series that the wife and I just finished. I don’t want to give anything away so I will stop there, but based on your interest in series endings, I suggest watching.had a similar thought on how the show ended and i don't think it was left open for the viewers conjecture in the manner of the sopranos
read some things about the challenges of wrapping up a series and do you try to wrap everything up in nice neat bow, leave it for the audience, or just walk away which is how deadwood ended up to me
