Watched Wind River last night. Not bad, passed the time enjoyably. Should really have been called 'massive Carhartt advert' really though.
Found new documentaries on Amazon prime to watch too. One on Mudhoney the other on the desert rock scene. Both look good.
-
Oooo, Mudhoney. I love how they’ve re-invented themselves over the last decade or so, starting with that Sabbath-esque record from the start of century, the name of which escapes me now….Because I’m old. So old...
I hear you. Mudhoney were so good live when I used to see them in the late 80s. Mark Arm is an Ian Mackaye of sorts to me. He is the true Cobain to the older generation.

COCO - stunning visually… Funny... Sweet story... I love a good Pixar flick...
Seconded. Love me some Coco. Great flick.

The absolute worst.
It seemed like they were going for a Titanic In Space vibe, except the ship didn't go down. I like Chris Pratt but man, this film was dreadful.

Finally watched Shotcaller, fantastic film.
This movie was really kind of kept off the radar it seems as I don't recall it being heavily advertised and I'm not even sure it was in the theaters?? I could be wrong. Fantastic performance by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Game of Thrones guy for those that don't know).
Prison movies can get old IMO but this is so much more than just a prison movie considering the story/theme. Plus the portions of the movie that do take place while he is locked are done very well and are extremely accurate. They really did their homework getting the details right and factually accurate. Supporting actors were great as well.
Great flick.

Last Days Here…a history of Bobby Liebling of the band Pentagram. If you love Sabbath and don't know these guys, you better know. If history played out differently it's them that would be forever labelled as the inventors of heavy metal.
Liebling is an f#!&ing loon too...Ozzy who?

Watched 'I Tonya' last night.
Liked it and it comes with a good soundtrack too.

@Stuart.T If I’m not mistaken, it was Blue Oyster Cult that first used the term heavy metal to describe their music. Their symbol is the symbol for the planet Pluto,which is the planet of Heavy Metal.
Steppenwolf…heavy metal thunder...quite a few bands 'referenced' the term heavy metal, but usually as a metaphor for motorcycles...as far as the sound of the music, guitar tunings, lyrical themes, iconography and image, Pentagram were there...they took Blue Cheer and added evil.
-
Wow Talk about bringing back memories. I loved Blue Cheer back in the day. Saw them twice. Loudest band ever.
I am in awe of that dude! That must have been something.
