Russell Westbrook Calls it a Career

Russell Westbrook shockingly retired from the NBA today. Let’s discuss.

To be honest, I thought he still had some seasons left in him. It always felt like his engine was never going to run out, and if a team was willing to take a chance on him, he'd give it his all. Hell, Sacramento is back to being a dumpster fire, but Westbrook still showed up every single game ready to go and played his ass off every night when he was put in the game. But it was also very aware that his skill set had been diminishing for the past couple of seasons.

I was one of the people who thought he would really help out the Nuggets last season. It seemed like he could bring a good change of pace off the bench and make the Nuggets second unit fast and fun. And while he had his moments, he was basically played out of the rotation in the playoffs. He just couldn't keep up with the youth of the Timberwolves.

His two previous seasons, with the Clippers, was a nice homecoming, but it didn't change much for that franchise. They still found ways to blow it in the playoffs, or every important player was injured when it came down to the important games. He also missed 2/3 of his first season with the Clippers. That was when the injuries really started to rear their head.

But it was the three seasons before that, all with the Lakers, that really showed me, a big fan of his, that he might have been washed up. LeBron wanted him in LA, on his team, and it was a total mess. Those Lakers teams never meshed, and Westbrook seemed like the common scapegoat for all of their issues. He did last three seasons with the team, but he only held them back. He never averaged more than 18 points, and his explosive athleticism was diminishing rapidly.

Before his time with the Lakers, Westbrook was one of my favorite players to watch. During his time with the Thunder he was easily one of my favorite players and, I don't think I'm speaking out of line here, was one of the 15 best players in the whole league. We are talking about a player who averaged a triple double over multiple seasons. I know some of the stat-obsessed nerds, the analytic guys, the Zach Lowe's of the world, all tried to downplay what he did, but what he did was incredible. I was all about him winning his MVP. He kept the Thunder as a playoff caliber team after Kevin Durant left them for the Warriors. That was when Westbrook was at his best. He wouldn't let that team crumble and become a joke. He played super hard every night, did whatever it took for that team to win enough games to be in the playoffs and more than earned his MVP. He kept me being a Thunder fan for a few years after KD left. It wasn't because they had Serge Ibaka or Andre Roberson. It was all about Westbrook. He took the necessary leap and proved that he was the type of player that could lead the team. But that didn't translate to much playoff success, unfortunately. Westbrook did all that he could and then some, but when you are surrounded by mid level exception players, first and second round exits are the norm. And even when Westbrook left and went to the Rockets, I held no ill will towards him. He had won an MVP, been an all NBA player, did something no player had done since Oscar Robertson, but he didn't have the championship that most pros crave. He probably also wanted to team up with James Harden again. That didn't work out, and that was when the journeyman part of his career began. I mentioned the Kings, Nuggets, Clipper and Lakers. He also had a top in Houston, as mentioned before, and he even spent a season with the Wizards, teaming up with Bradley Beal and making the Wizards a playoff caliber team. But it was those Thunder years that I will remember most. The way he would fly up and down the floor. His vicious attacks at the rim on a drive. The way he would snag rebounds and get a fastbreak started. His elbow jumper that felt like it was almost always going in. His deep breath before shooting a free throw. That is the Russell Westbrook I will think about when I look back on his career.

My biggest question though, the one I just debated with my son about, as much as I adore Westbrook, I do not think he will be a Hall of Fame player in the end. He has all the big awards, but he is incredibly polarizing, and he doesn't have that ring. I think that maybe, with some time away, more and more people will grow to respect what he did, and realize he had a great career, but I just don't think he is Hall of Fame caliber. I also wouldn't rule out a return. If some team needs a last season addition at point guard, or wants a veteran to help out a rookie, I'd call Westbrook before anyone else. Time will tell. But for now, enjoy retirement Russ. You have earned a much deserved rest from basketball.

Better Late Than Never on "Seven Samurai"

I sat down over the past three days and watched the entirety of "Seven Samurai". This movie has been on my list for sometime now. I have always heard about it. I have heard everyone say what an epic and triumphant movie it was when it came out. I have heard everyone sing the praises of director Akira Kirosawa. I know the lore but have never put away time to sit and watch. I knew with my son starting football practice that I would have some free time in the mornings to watch what I want to see, and "Seven Samurai" was my choice. It must be said, this is my first Kirosawa movie that I have watched. I figured I'd start with what most consider to be his best. I will definitely be watching more of his work after seeing this movie.

"Seven Samurai" is a classic, and it is a classic for a myriad of reasons. This is one of the best movies I have ever watched. Never for one moment did I feel bored or annoyed watching an almost three and a half hour long samurai epic from 1954. The movie's pacing might be one of its best attributes. This is probably the first movie that followed the whole "getting the band together" cliche. That is the crux of this movie.

For those that haven't seen it, "Seven Samurai" tells the story of a village of people afraid of being pillaged by bandits, asking one samurai to help, and he then recruits six more to fight the fight. From the first moment we saw our main samurai, I was hooked. I loved seeing him pretend to be a monk and help out the other village. I didn't mind seeing the villagers become scared by the bandits, then try to recruit other samurai before getting their first commitment. I thought the full storyline for one of the villagers, Rikichi I believe was his name, was incredible. We got to see him go from meek and weak willed, to fighting off bandits himself, to leading the whole village in song after they win. I thought the movie had great comedic moments. My favorite samurai, Kichuychi, was hilarious. He had jokes galore, but when it was time to fight, he was serious. He also had the most hero worthy death of all of the samurai. And I don't even care that he wasn't technically a "samurai". He wanted to fight, he gave his life, and he saved the three samurai that made it out of there with their lives. He ruled. I also liked the second samurai they got to join the crew. He was always smiling, always ready to laugh at a joke. But he also knew that he had a job to do, and death was one of the setbacks. He was willing to give his life to fight. The young kid who comes aboard as a student or sorts fascinated me. He wanted so hard to be a samurai, but he also had some fear and he was clearly in love with one of the villagers' daughters. The love story between the two of them fit perfectly within the story this movie tells.

What got me the most, what made me truly love this movie, was the battle scenes. I wrote yesterday about how wonderful all the fight scenes were in the most recent season of "House of the Dragon". None of that is possible without "Seven Samurai" doing it first. From what I read after I finished the movie yesterday, most call this movie the first action movie. I totally see that. This movie has fights and deaths everywhere. The sword work is masterful. The way they shoot bows and arrows is like nothing I have seen before. The hand to hand stuff is rad. There's an early scene where another villager challenges the best swordsman within the seven samurai, and while the fight is short, it is precise and perfect. We get a small glimpse of this samurai's talent and when he cuts down the villager who challenged him, he doesn't gloat or yell at anyone. He simply puts his sword back in its sheath and continues his mission. Growing up I used to watch a ton of Bruce Lee movies. I was obsessed with how they shot those movies and the fact that Lee did his own stunts. Those movies were made in the 70's, with nice cameras and more knowledge. The stuff that Kirosawa did in this movie, the edits, the choreography, the fight scenes, the tension, he did all of that in the early 50's. He was clearly a visionary and way, way ahead of his time. We don't get movies like this anymore. "Seven Samurai" builds and builds until that final scene, where it is an explosion of a battle scene. But I wanted to know everything about everyone in the movie. I appreciated the backstory and how they all ended up joining the fight. I like that each moment was given its space to breathe and to let the audience fully understand what was at stake.

I am ashamed that it took me so long to see this movie, but glad that I remedied that over the past three days. "Seven Samurai" is a masterpiece. I now see what other movies I love have taken from this as an ode when making newer movies. I loved this movie and I cannot wait to dig into more and more of Kirosawa's catalog. "Seven Samurai" rules.

Ty Watches "House of the Dragon" Season 3

Hello all. I'm back from my final vacation. Next week, and for the rest of the month for that matter, will be focused solely on football. But this week I have some pop culture stuff I wanted to catch up on before transitioning to football. Don't worry, football is fast approaching and I have some takes, and that will all begin next week.

To start my week back, I want to talk about the third season of "House of the Dragon". I will try my best to not spoil anything, but sorry if something slips. I was frustrated with season 2 of the show. It felt like a tease all season long. They kept talking about an incoming battle, they kept marching towards it, they would give us a little taste here and there, but the season ended with no real fighting or massive war scenes like "Game of Thrones" used to have. So, coming into season 3, I was kind of pessimistic that they would right the ship in my opinion. I should have been optimistic.

Season 3 of "House of the Dragon" was pretty damn great. It was epic and filled with battle scenes. I was actually talking to my dad about the season earlier today, and he was telling me he thought that two of the episodes dragged for him and he loved the rest. I disagreed with him. I thought all eight episodes had important and cool stuff that happened throughout the hour-long show.

The season started off with a total bang. They have battle scene after battle scene. The hour was unrelenting and kind of awesome. Everytime they would take a minor break in the premiere, they would button those scenes with some kind of kickass fight or epic battle. Daemon was all over the place. Alicient's people were trying to push forward. Rhaeneyra was preparing to take over, and it was all there and all on screen.

One of the two episodes my father said felt dragging was the second one of this season, but I don't know how they could have topped that premiere. And the second episode got us back to the mainland and kind of set everything that we would come to see throughout this season. From then on out we saw so much stuff happen. I felt like the people who created the show, the writers, directors and actors all heard the complaints, and they decided that they would put it all out there this season. And we, the viewers, were greatly rewarded. We see all the stuff Rhaeneyra and Daemon are planning. We get some closure on Aemond and Aegon's relationship after the harrowing end to their story last season. We get more from the creepy castle with the lady who resides there that may or may not be an undead maester or witch. We see some tremendous fallout from the biggest battle during the premiere. Dragons are abundant and everywhere during this season. We get to see the new dragon riders and how they are faring with some newfound wealth and fame. There is a rad battle involving Lord Corlys and his bastard kids that he just accepted into his family. This season was really, really good and gave us so much that the previous season promised but never really paid off.

This season started with a bang, ended with one of the wildest war scenes I've watched and I am so ready for the fourth season to come around in two years. And while the wait seems long now, we had to wait just as long, if not longer, for this season, and this season had it all. That is the one bummer about this show though. They have to do so much work to get these seasons out, and it takes a long, long time. I guess that is why waiting for shows like "Severance" and "Pluribus" doesn't really bother me. "House of the Dragon" has prepared me for long waits in between seasons. And if we get anything that is half as good as this recent season, the wait won't feel long at all.

"House of the Dragon" showed up and showed out this year. The show should, and most likely will, dominate the Emmy Awards. I haven't seen much on its level as of yet this year and don't imagine I will anytime soon. Obviously I love this show, mainly this season, and I highly recommend checking it out. I know there's a ton of content out right now, but "House of the Dragon" stands out as one of the best in the game.

Hadrian's Wall: The Oldest and Most Humbling Thing I Have Ever Touched

Picture by RDK

This summer, my family and I took a trip that had been a goal of ours the last few years: Britain.

We started in Edinburgh, Scotland, and made our way south by car toward London, taking our time to experience as much of the countryside and history as we could along the way. There were castles, ancient villages, winding roads through the hills, and more history than I could absorb in a single trip.

But there was one stop that affected me more than any other. Hadrian's Wall.

I've visited plenty of historic sites before. In fact, earlier in the trip, while touring the Scottish Highlands, our bus passed an old Roman gate. It was incredible to see, but we never got off the bus. I admired it through the window, snapped a picture, and we continued on our journey. Hadrian's Wall was different. I was able to stand beside it. I was able to place my hand on stones that Roman soldiers had once walked past nearly two thousand years ago. It remains the oldest thing I have ever touched.

That simple act was far more emotional than I expected.

The wall was ordered by the Roman Emperor Hadrian around A.D. 122. Stretching roughly 73 miles across northern England from coast to coast, it wasn't built simply to keep invaders out. It marked the northern frontier of the Roman Empire, controlled trade and travel, and demonstrated Rome's unmatched engineering and military power.

Imagine what it must have looked like nearly two thousand years ago. Thousands of soldiers stationed in forts along the wall. Watchtowers stretching across the hills. Roads connecting military outposts. Supply wagons moving back and forth. It wasn't just a wall. It was a declaration. Rome is here.

The section of Hadrian's Wall we visited also included the remains of a Roman temple. Today, only the stone foundations and portions of the walls remain. You have to use your imagination to picture the columns, roof, decorations, and people who once gathered there. It must have been magnificent in its day, a place where soldiers and travelers sought favor from the gods before continuing along the empire's frontier. Now it sits quietly beneath the English sky. No ceremonies. No armies. No emperors. Only ruins.

One of my favorite moments wasn't actually part of the history lesson. It was looking across the rolling green hills and realizing who truly owns Hadrian's Wall today.The sheep. They wander across the same landscape where Roman legions once marched. They graze beside stones that once represented one of the most powerful civilizations in human history. Visitors come and go. The sheep stay. There was something strangely peaceful about that. Nature doesn't care about empires. Eventually, it reclaims everything.

Picture by RDK

Standing there, I couldn't help but think of Percy Bysshe Shelley's famous poem Ozymandias.

"Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

The poem tells the story of a once-powerful king whose monuments have crumbled into the desert, leaving behind only fragments and the arrogance carved into stone. Hadrian's Wall isn't identical to Ozymandias, but it evokes many of the same feelings. Rome believed it was building something permanent. Its engineers probably assumed this wall would stand forever as proof of Roman greatness. Today, much of it has disappeared. Stones have been taken over the centuries to build homes, churches, and farms. Great forts have become archaeological sites. Magnificent buildings have been reduced to outlines in the grass.

Time has a way of humbling us all.

Touching Hadrian's Wall made me think about legacy. We often measure success by what we build—our careers, businesses, homes, achievements, or even monuments. History reminds us that none of those things are guaranteed to last forever. Even the Roman Empire eventually faded. Its greatest engineering projects fell into ruin. Its armies disappeared. Its emperors became names in history books.

Yet something did survive.

The ideas. The influence. The roads that shaped Europe. The legal systems. The engineering knowledge. The language. The stories.The people who made life better for those around them.

Maybe that's the real lesson.

Our buildings may crumble. Our names may eventually be forgotten. But the kindness we show, the people we help, the communities we strengthen, and the lives we change can echo far longer than stone walls ever could.

Of all the places we visited on our journey from Edinburgh to London, Hadrian's Wall left the deepest impression on me. Not because it was the grandest attraction. Not because it was the most beautiful. But because it reminded me just how small we are in the grand timeline of history—and how meaningful our actions can still be. For a brief moment, I rested my hand on stones laid by people who lived nearly twenty centuries before me. The wall may no longer mark the edge of an empire. The temple may stand in ruins. The sheep may now rule the hills. But the lessons of that place remain as solid as the stones themselves. History lives on. And while our greatest structures may one day fade into the landscape, the good we do for others has a chance to become something far more enduring.

That's a legacy worth building.

A Cincinnatian in a Primanti Bros Bar

Food has always been one of my favorite ways to get to know a city. I grew up in St. Louis and have spent my married life in Cincinnati, so I've developed some pretty strong opinions about regional favorites. Every city has that one iconic dish locals insist every visitor has to try. Sometimes the hype is deserved. Sometimes... well, that's part of the adventure.

Recently, my family was in Pittsburgh while touring colleges for my son. As we spend the next year visiting campuses around the country, I've decided to make it a mission to sample each city's signature food along the way. It seems like the perfect excuse to combine college visits with culinary exploration. Naturally, our Pittsburgh stop meant one thing: Primanti Bros. I ordered the pastrami sandwich, figuring you can't go wrong with a classic.

The first thing that stood out wasn't even the pastrami—it was the bread. The sliced Italian bread at Primanti Bros. is some of the best sandwich bread I've ever eaten. It was soft yet sturdy enough to hold everything together, with just the right amount of chew. Great bread can elevate an entire sandwich, and this bread absolutely did.

The pastrami was excellent—tender, flavorful, and generously stacked. The vinegar-based slaw was another highlight. Its bright, tangy bite cut through the richness of the meat and kept every bite balanced without weighing the sandwich down.

Then there were the fries.

On their own, they're really good. They reminded me of Five Guys fries—fresh-cut, hearty, and satisfying. That's definitely a compliment. But here's where I may lose my Pittsburgh credentials before I ever earn them. I don't think the fries belong on the sandwich.

With the pastrami, fresh bread, slaw, and tomatoes already working together so well, the large potato flavor overwhelmed everything else. Instead of complementing the sandwich, the fries became the dominant taste. I found myself missing the flavors of the meat and slaw that had impressed me so much in the first few bites. Maybe that's just the Cincinnati in me talking.

Every city has its traditions, and I respect that the fries-on-the-sandwich concept is part of Pittsburgh's identity. It simply isn't my preference. The good news? That's an easy fix.

Next time I'm ordering the exact same pastrami sandwich—just without the fries. I'll happily enjoy those on the side instead. After all, I'm from Cincinnati, not Pittsburgh.

Serpentor vs. Cobra Commander: Who Was the Better Leader?

Using only the Sunbow G.I.Joe: A Real American Hero cartoons from the 1980s, I decided to conduct a scientific study on who is the better leader, Serpentor or Cobra Commander.

At first glance, Cobra Commander seems like the obvious choice. After all, he founded Cobra, built it into a worldwide criminal empire, recruited some of the greatest villains in the world, and somehow managed to finance everything from hidden island fortresses to fleets of H.I.S.S. Tanks. Without Cobra Commander, there is no Cobra. But founding an organization and leading it are two very different things.

Cobra Commander deserves credit for creating one of the most recognizable villain organizations in television history. He had vision. Every week he was unveiling another elaborate plan to conquer the world, whether it involved weather control devices, mind-altering technology, or ancient artifacts with incredible power.

The problem was execution.

Time and time again, Cobra Commander let his emotions get the better of him. When things started falling apart, he panicked. He blamed Destro. He blamed the Baroness. He blamed his troops. Basically, everyone but himself. His leadership style often created chaos inside Cobra. Instead of working together, Cobra's top officers spent as much time arguing with each other as they did fighting G.I. Joe.

Of course, that's also what made him such a memorable character. His dramatic speeches, over-the-top reactions, and constant frustration gave the cartoon much of its personality. Cobra Commander wasn't just the villain—he was the entertainment.

Everything changed when Dr. Mindbender created Serpentor from the DNA of history's greatest military conquerors.

From the moment he appeared, Serpentor carried himself like a ruler who believed victory was inevitable.

Unlike Cobra Commander, Serpentor wasn't content to bark orders from headquarters. He led attacks personally. He charged into battle alongside his troops and expected everyone to follow him. Whether his plans succeeded or failed, no one could accuse him of lacking courage. That confidence inspired Cobra's soldiers in a way Cobra Commander rarely did.

So Serpentor is the better leader? Not entirely.

For all of Serpentor's confidence, he suffered from many of the same flaws as the leaders whose DNA created him—especially arrogance. He believed he couldn't lose. That overconfidence often pushed Cobra into unnecessary battles and reckless decisions. Worse, he immediately alienated many of Cobra's experienced leaders. Destro openly questioned him. Cobra Commander plotted against him almost immediately. Even loyal officers like Tomax, Xamont, and even Dr. Mindbender struggled with his authoritarian style. Serpentor may have been a stronger battlefield commander, but he wasn't particularly skilled at keeping Cobra united.

Cobra Commander was the visionary entrepreneur. He built Cobra from nothing, recruited followers, found funding, and kept the organization alive despite countless setbacks. Serpentor was the military general. His strength wasn't creating an organization—it was leading one into battle. If Cobra had been a real corporation, Cobra Commander would have been the founder and CEO, while Serpentor would have been the aggressive new executive hired to improve performance. Unfortunately, instead of working together, they spent most of their time trying to undermine each other.

Sound familiar?

So Who Wins?

If we're talking about combat leadership, Serpentor gets the edge. He was fearless, decisive, and willing to fight alongside his troops. His soldiers had every reason to believe he would lead from the front.

If we're talking about building Cobra into a global threat, Cobra Commander wins without question. You can't ignore the fact that he created the organization everyone else inherited.

Ironically, the cartoon itself may have stumbled onto the perfect answer without ever intending to. The strongest version of Cobra would have combined Cobra Commander's vision with Serpentor's battlefield leadership. Instead, their rivalry became Cobra's greatest weakness, allowing G.I. Joe to exploit the constant infighting.

In the end, that's probably why G.I. Joe kept winning.

Yo Joe.

2026 Has Alredy Been an Amazing Year for Movies

Maybe it's just the movie fan in me, but I can't remember the last time I looked at a theater schedule and thought, "I want to see almost everything." For the first time since the pandemic turned Hollywood upside down, it feels like movies are back in a big way.

For years we've heard the same conversation. "Movie theaters are dying." "Streaming is the future." "Hollywood has run out of ideas." And while there have certainly been some great films over the past few years, 2026 feels different. It feels like there's real momentum again.

What's been most exciting isn't just that we've gotten a handful of good movies—it's that we've gotten great movies across almost every genre.

Early in the year, science fiction fans were treated to the incredible Project Hail Mary, a film that reminded audiences why big, intelligent sci-fi adventures belong on the biggest screen possible. It wasn't just another effects showcase. It had heart, humor, and one of the year's most satisfying stories.

Animation has been on a roll, too. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie continued Nintendo's winning streak, proving once again that video game movies can actually be...well...good. Better than good, actually. It captured the fun and imagination that fans hoped for while introducing a whole new generation to Mario's universe.

Then came Toy Story 5.

I'll admit it—I wasn't sure we needed another Toy Story. After Toy Story 3, I thought Pixar had wrapped things up pretty well, yet they still made Toy Story 4. But somehow they found another story worth telling. It reminded us why Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang have meant so much to audiences for nearly three decades.

And then there's The Odyssey.

Big, ambitious, epic filmmaking has felt increasingly rare over the last several years. Seeing a classic story brought to life on such a massive scale reminded me why theaters exist in the first place. Some movies just aren't meant to be watched while folding laundry at home. Chistopher Nolan swung for the fences with The Odyssey, and he hot the ball out of the stadium. Go see this movie on the big screen.

Over the weekend the biggest movie opening ever happened. Spider-Man: Brand New Day delivered exactly what fans wanted: heart, humor, exciting action, and a reminder that superhero movies still work when the focus stays on great characters instead of simply setting up the next dozen sequels. Great actors playing characters we love doing cool stuff will always bring box office gold.

But here's what I think has made 2026 really special. It hasn't just been about the giant franchises. Some of the year's biggest surprises have come from smaller films, especially in horror. Obsession and Backrooms became breakout successes not because they had enormous budgets, but because they had fresh ideas, memorable scares, and audiences eager to discover something new. People, twenty somethings in particular, wanted to have a shared moviegoing experience with these films made by people who are their age. The success of these films proves that you don't need a $250 million budget to make an impact—you just need a great concept and strong execution, and an audience that wants to be scared. That's encouraging not only for horror fans but for anyone who wants Hollywood to keep taking creative risks.

Honestly, the best part is that we're not even finished with 2026. The second half of the year still has plenty to look forward to. I'm already counting down the days until Digger, one of the more intriguing original films on the horizon with a must see performance from Tom Cruise. Then there's Avengers: Doomsday, which has the chance to be the biggest superhero event in years if it sticks the landing. And for science fiction fans, Dune 3 promises to continue one of the most visually stunning and ambitious franchises of the modern era. For the first time in a long time, it feels like every few weeks there's another movie worth getting excited about.

The pandemic didn't kill moviegoing, but it definitely changed it. Studios became more cautious, release schedules were constantly shifting, and streaming often overshadowed theatrical releases. For a while, it seemed like every discussion about movies centered on declining ticket sales instead of the films themselves. This year, the conversation has finally changed. People are recommending movies to each other again. They're avoiding spoilers, buying advance tickets, debating favorites online, and making plans to see films together. Going to the movies has started feeling like an event again rather than just another entertainment option.

Will every movie be a classic? Of course not. But that's never been the point.

The point is that 2026 has reminded us what it's like to be genuinely excited about going to the theater. Between smart science fiction, emotional animated films, massive historical epics, crowd-pleasing superhero adventures, and inventive low-budget horror hits, there's been something for just about everyone. After several uneven years, Hollywood finally seems to have found its rhythm again. And if the rest of the release calendar lives up to the promise of Digger, Avengers: Doomsday, and Dune 3, we may end up looking back on 2026 as not just the best movie year since the pandemic—but one of the best blockbuster years in a very long time.

I’m excited. As Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel used to say, “I’ll see you at the movies”.

As a Michigan Fan, I have No Problem with What Kyle Whittingham Said

I'm about to embark on my final summer vacation, but I want to leave you all with one more piece before I take a week off.

Big Ten media days are happening right now, and since I'm a Michigan fan, I get updates about it pretty frequently. With Kyle Whittingham being the new football head coach, of course I am interested in what he has to say about the upcoming season. Most of what he has said is pretty typical coach speak. That's usually the case at these events. But some fans are "upset" that he has extended an invitation to Urban Meyer to come to practice for any game except The Game, and that he isn't saying the typical Michigan football coach stuff, like "that school down south", or simply calling them "Ohio".

This doesn't bug me at all. To be quite honest, I was already over all the "do it, or die trying", "who's got it better than us" and "smash" talk that has permeated the football program for the past decade plus. What Jim Harbaugh did, returning the national title to the football program, will be forever remembered, and I will always be grateful for that. He restored this program and made them relevant again. His last three years as the head football coach were some of the best times I've had as a fan. But his schtick was wearing thin for me. I was kind of over it. I loved that he was outspoken for his players, he helped usher in NIL and he never stole focus from the team. But the way he spoke, the mantras he held onto and the whole vibe was kind of tiresome. I was fed up.

And then we had Sherrone Moore, who I highly advocated to get the job after Harbaugh left. Moore was all about the "smash" mentality. And when he would be asked what that meant, he would say some nonsense that always frustrated me. "Smash" meant running through walls, giving your all for the team, fighting until the last whistle, which is all well and good, but it just becomes kind of lame after a while. I get it, coaches at this level have to have this kind of mentality and fervor, but it can become gross and weird and, as my kids would say, cringe. The whole "smash" and "do it, or die trying" became similar to me when Dabo Swinney mentioned that Clemson already has NIL, in God's eyes. Or when the new Florida coach yelled at a reporter who's phone went off during a gathering. Or Curt Cignetti telling people to "google him". I'm over all of that shit.

We get it, you guys are highly successful at what you do and you have earned all the respect and accolades that have come your way. But the "coach speak" stuff has got to go. These are 18-22 year old kids you're dealing with now, and I bet they think that shit is wild too. So for Whittingham to invite his buddy and mentor, for him to not speak with some kind of fervor that makes it feel like he is foaming at the mouth, it is a nice and needed change of pace for me as a diehard Michigan fan.

I loathe the university of Ohio State and Michigan State as much as any fan, but I don't go to the lengths that others do. I don't sit and pine and gripe and moan after those games. I want Michigan to win every game every season, but that isn't always likely. And for the coach to not be so angry about his newly inherited rivals, to which he has zero feeling for, why should fans be up in arms at all? This is all new to Kyle Whittingham. Sure, Utah has BYU, and I'm sure he understood the stakes that rivalry held, but I never heard him say some foul shit about BYU. He coached his team for the week, had them prepared to play and, hopefully for him, he won more that game more often than not.

I was so happy that Michigan was able to get Whittingham after they had to let Moore go. This is a much needed change in direction from the past with this team. From Bo to Gary Moeller and Lloyd Carr, we had the quintessential Michigan Men. Then it was kind of rough with Rich Rod and Brady Hoke. Then we, the fans, struck gold when they got Harbaugh to come back. He restored this team, but it took time. We all know the fallout from Moore, which was tough. But now Michigan has a coach that is respected for how cleanly he runs a program. He made Utah a perennial 9 to 10 win team. He recruited players that fit his system. He hired coaches he trusted and knew he could get the best out of. I want all of that for Michigan. I'm sick of hearing about sign stealing, damaging phones, buying burgers for recruits, satellite camps and who the former coach was contacting on Instagram. I want my coach to be seen, not heard. I want to see the product on the field before I judge what he says off the field. This is, to quote Jim Harbaugh, "a nothing burger" from some sadistic and stupid fans. Who cares what he has to say about a friend and a school he has, I think so at least, never coached against before in his career.

Time will tell if Whittingham was the right choice to return Michigan to its place in college football, but for fans to get mad over some stuff he said in an interview, before he has even coached a real game as the Michigan head football coach is asinine to me. Don't gate keep stuff that you have zero involvement in just because you're a fan. Whittingham doesn't have to bash anyone or any program if he doesn't want to. That's not his job. His job is to be the head football coach at Michigan, and so far, it has been a nice, quiet offseason. That's the way I prefer it.

Better Late Than Never on "Bronson"

While looking for a movie to watch yesterday I came across a Tom Hardy movie called "Bronson". I was searching on Amazon, it was free and I like Tom Hardy. I watched the trailer and it intrigued me enough to press play.

I don't know, nor did I recognize, any other actor in the movie, but that doesn't really matter. This was a full on Tom Hardy movie. He was in every single scene. He was the focal point and they did not try to hide that while making this movie. Nicolas Winding Refn is the director, and while "Drive" is one of the best and coolest movies ever made, he has about a 50 percent hit rate with me. But he makes interesting and unique movies, so the fact that he was directing and Hardy was starring, that was all I needed.

What I proceeded to watch for the next 90 minutes was unlike anything I have seen in quite some time. This movie came out in 2008, so it was before Hardy was playing Bane, but you can see his star potential here. "Bronson" tells a somewhat true story of Michael Peterson, aka Charles Bronson, London's most notorious criminal. He went to jail in the 70's for robbing a post office, but due to his constant conflict, he has spent right around 34 years in prison, 30 of which have been done in solitary confinement. This movie tells us his story of how he ended up in prison, what led him to make bad choices and the why and how of him constantly ending up in solitary.

Hardy is incredible in this role. He embodies this prisoner. From the way he talks to how buff he got for the role to his constant fights involving prison guards, Hardy nails it. He also narrates the story and does something akin to a one man show. There were quick cuts and jumps back and forth from prison to telling his story in front of an audience. I thought this was a cool and different way to tell a story like this. I have never seen a prison story told in this manner. Hardy chews up the scenery like no other here too. That made this movie decent to me. I really liked the fight scenes. I enjoyed seeing him tell his story. I thought the prison stuff felt real. I liked how bi polar he was as this character. He would fly off the rails at any given moment, but this was always after he was, seemingly, calm. But you knew that there was almost always a storm brewing. I will say, there's a ton of full frontal nudity in this movie too. Apparently this prisoner likes to grease himself up before he gets into fights, and Hardy was more than game to do this. He would grease himself up, strip down to nothing but his shoes and socks and get himself ready to fight. This would lead to fight scenes where Hardy's manhood was just flopping around. I give Hardy credit for going to these lengths, but man do I really know what his genitals look like now. Anyway, the movie was still keeping my interest throughout all of that.

Where the movie would miss for me was, they had these long scenes where almost nothing was being said, and they just sat on a still of Hardy. This added nothing to the story for me. This felt about mastubatory for Hardy and Refn. It was like they were saying, look at all these muscles I gained to play this role. Or look at how menacing I can be. Or this manchild really is a violent criminal. We got all of that from previous scenes in the movie. I didn't need to see him brooding for what seemed like an eternity at times. I also liked the scenes where he would get ready to fight the guards, but the buildup seemed way too long. The final battle sees Hardy as Bronson painting his art teacher to look like a classic work. You think something bad may happen to the teacher, but as soon as the teacher starts crying, Hardy proclaims that he has had enough and he is ready to fight. All of that felt like a big buildup to just another fight between Bronson and the guards, where they beat his ass. But, that just seems like Refn's way. He seems like he may be a bit full of himself. I wouldn't be shocked if he calls himself an auteur as opposed to a director.

I will say, even with my little quibbles, "Bronson" held my attention, and it was all due to Hardy. He is magnetic to watch on screen. There are few actors that I can watch a movie solely focused on one character, but Hardy fits the bill for me. Not only did I kind of like "Bronson", I truly love another movie that he is the lone star in, "Locke". He just has a way of owning the screen like few others can.

Would I recommend "Bronson"? to certain people, yes. This movie is violent. This movie is grim. But it also has one of the wildest scores for a movie like this and Hardy's performance is worth your time. Make no mistake, this is what many would consider an "art" film, but it also takes chances other movies may not. Check it out if you have the time.

R.I.P. Glen Hansard

This morning I awoke to a notification on my phone from one of my brothers. I don't usually check my phone first thing in the morning, but something compelled me today. I do use my phone as my alarm, but I usually just turn that off, then start my day. Today was different. I think maybe it was due to the fact that he sent me a story on two different sites. I had to check. What I read really bummed me out today. My brother sent me a few stories to let me know that Glen Hansard had tragically died in a motorcycle accident.

For those that may not know, Hansard is a musician and actor of note. Growing up in my house we watched the movie "The Commitments" a ton. My parents have always liked old soul music and movies that are about bands making music. My brothers and I all have very eclectic taste in music. We cross paths a lot, but we also all have our own taste. And everyone in my family likes odd movies. Some of us, me specifically, like weirder movies than others, but we do enjoy independent movies. I have not gone back and watched "The Commitments" in years, I have heard it isn't as great as I thought. But I do remember Hansard very vividly in that movie. He was a guitar player in the band, he had long curly hair and it was bright red. He instantly grabbed my attention as a kid. I have never seen hair like that before. It didn't hurt that he was an outstanding guitar player as well. His character and performance always stuck with me, all the way to adulthood in fact.

Then, like most of the world, I fell in love with Hansard and Marketa Irglova all over again after seeing the movie "Once". "Once" is one of the best movies ever about forming a band and making music that means something to you. I saw the movie multiple times in theaters, bought it the moment it was released on DVD and still revisit it from time to time. I also wore that soundtrack out. I listened to it over and over again. I knew every nook and cranny of that soundtrack. Sure, "Falling Slowly" is an all time hit and Oscar winner, but I also loved tracks like "Broken Hearted Hoover Fixer Sucker Guy", "All The Way Down" and especially "Say It To Me Now". These songs became a part of my everyday life after watching the movie and buying the soundtrack. I was totally hooked. And his performance, along with Irglova as well, was beautiful. "Once" worked on every single level for me. I adore the movie to this day and I will be watching it again very soon in memory of Hansard.

After the movie became a hit, Irglova and Hansard went on a tour, and I was lucky enough to see them in Saint Louis. The show was spectacular. Those two really knew how to play together and they crushed it at The Pageant. I remember sitting in the venue with my dad and him telling me he could tell I was just in awe of their talent. That show has a special place in my heart because it was one of the best, yet most stripped down live concerts I've ever seen.

After watching that show I decided it was time to listen to Hansard's band, The Frames. I really dove deep into their stuff. They were like a rock band, but they had some heavy folk influences. It was wild to hear them play music with distortion, but whenever Hansard's powerful vocals would show up, I knew I was in very good hands. He had this amazing voice that would take over everything in the best way possible.

After Eddie Vedder made the soundtrack for "Into The Wild" I was fortunate enough, again, to see him play live at the Fox here in Saint Louis. I was already hyped for the show, and then I read that Glen Hansard was going to be the opener, and he was going to be playing solo, acoustic versions of his work. This made me even more hype. I made sure that the people I was going with knew that we had to see Hansard perform that night, and boy am I glad they obliged. He was magnetic. He was playing the guitar he used in "Once" and it was a glorious opening set. Hansard played for about 45 minutes and hit every song I wanted to hear him play with just his voice and an acoustic guitar. He even joined Vedder for some songs and they played very well together. I remember leaving that show and being in a wonderful mood. Vedder is a superstar, but getting to see Hansard in that way in such a prestigious venue, that is another show I will never forget.

I don't know all the details of what happened, or how the accident occured, but I do know that his passing has made me very sad this morning. He was so young, still in his 50's. I'm sure he was still making music. I am going to have to go out and find what he made before his untimely and tragic death. I am going to miss him very much, and I didn't know him at all. I was, and still am, just a big fan of his work.

Rest In Peace Glen Hansard. I know you are plucking your guitar wherever you may be right now.

Better Late Than Never On "The Prestige"

I am still trying to find a time that works for my wife and I to go see “The Odyssey”. We have two kids, one wants to see it, the other has zero interest. We also don’t necessarily have a babysitter, so we rely on grandparents. The problem there, they want to see it too. So, in lieu of going to see “The Odyssey”, we still plan on it, we decided to go back and watch the Christopher Nolan movies we have yet to see.

This week we watched “The Prestige”. This one has been on my list for a long while now. My wife knew of it, but she has never really brought up rather she wanted to see it or not. I know that RD really likes this movie. He’s told me this before. So, we had our date night on Friday, it was my pick and I chose “The Prestige”.

Right off the bat, this movie rules. I was in from moment one. I was telling my wife after watching that I never thought I’d care about magicians as much as I did while watching this movie. I thought the story, the way it unfolded and the twist were all pretty damn perfect. Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale, spoiler alert for a 20 year old movie, do excellent work playing dual roles. Jackman gets to be serious and funny in this movie. As The Great Danton, he is as much a workhorse as there is in the magic industry. He’s an obsessive who wants nothing more than to be the best. But as Root, he gets to play a drunken buffoon who used to be a viable actor. He was great. Christian Bale plays twin brothers, but we don’t find that out until the end. He gets to be himself, but two versions. And the way this all unfolds at the end is so gratifying. I would have gone nuts if I didn’t know what was coming. Bale pulls off the twin brothers wonderfully. He’s such a good actor. Michael Caine plays an advisor of sorts to both of the magicians. I can see why Nolan puts Caine in a bunch of his movies. He’s so reliable and so good at his job. He was wonderful, as per usual, in this movie. David Bowie plays Tesla, and Andy Serkis plays his assistant. Bowie is great, and kind of perfectly cast. He got to play a weirdo, which is fitting. I always forget than Serkis can play real people, but when he does he usually puts out some solid work. Rebecca Hall plays one of Bale’s twin brothers wife, and she does a bang up job. She gets to do a lot of dramatic stuff and she really nails it. I forgot how good of an actor she can be. Piper Perabo is barely in the movie, as Danton’s wife, not she’s memorable. She gives him his magician name and dies a tragic death that kind of sets the whole movie in motion. Scarlett Johansson gets the bulk of screen time as the assistant and love interest of both magicians. Johansson is a real talent and it was so easy to see she was going to be a big time star, even back then. She rules. And for Nolan, to adapt this work to the screen, he is a wizard. Again, this movie made me care about magicians. I found myself rooting for each at different moments. I loved the “montage” type stuff he put in the movie. He knows how to make a damn watchable movie. And to give one of the twin brothers the final line of, “abracadabra” was genius.

I adored this movie. I wish I’d seen it sooner without knowing the main twist. I highly recommend checking it out if you’ve never seen it, or going back and rewatching if you haven’t seen it in awhile. “The Prestige” rules. I’m stoked I can mark this one as seen on my list now.

Thoughts on LeBron Going to Philadelphia

LeBron James has made his decision on where he will play basketball this upcoming season. He chose, after some long deliberation, the Philadelphia 76ers. Let’s discuss.

The 76ers were always mentioned as a possible team, but it felt far fetched. It doesn't go along with his narrative, he has no ties to the city, he has never had to face them in any high pressure situations, it sounded like a pipe dream to me. I even wrote a few weeks back how I thought that Cleveland was the best option, and I would have put Miami next and then Golden State before I even ranked Philly. But here we are, and I have some thoughts.

First off, I love that he chose the 76ers. Of all the teams mentioned, this one seems like the easiest fit for him as a player. He can come in right away and be the point guard. Tyrese Maxey isn't a point guard, he's a legit 2 guard. VJ Edgecombe may eventually be the point guard, but he can now learn how to play it properly playing with James. Jaylen Brown is better off the ball, and Joel Embiid has never, ever wanted ball handling duties. This is a seamless fit for, what I believe to be, James' best option at this point in his career. Labaron Philon is a rookie, so we, much like Edgecombe, will get valuable time learning from one of the best to ever play. Anfernee Simons is a shooter. Dean Wade is too big to be a point guard, and they brought him in for defense anyway. Caleb Love is a 2, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, who they are about to sign, is a veteran 3 and D guy. The 76ers needed someone they could trust to bring the ball up the floor and run the offense.

Another advantage Philly has over a team like Cleveland, LeBron won't have to be superhuman on defense. I know that Embiid's health is, and always will be, a major issue. But when he is on the floor he is one of the best rim protectors in the NBA. I think Jaylen Brown is one of the better two way players in the league. He goes hard on both ends, and he has to guard the opponents best players a lot of nights. Edgecombe showed growth on that end last season, and Maxey is an ever improving defensive guy. Dean Wade, as mentioned before, is a solid defender. They brought in Andre Drummond for defense. Maybe they will turn Philon Jr into a defense first guard. The 76ers have way more, and way better, defensive options than the Cavs. If James' decision was solely based on defense, Miami may have been the better choice, but Philly is no slouch.

I also think he may have chosen the 76ers because it is all gravy for him at this point. He's done everything and then some than any NBA player could ever dream of doing. He has rings, MVP trophies, Finals MVP trophies, is a perenial all NBA guy and people seem to love him. If he can make Philly a legit title contender, or even win one with them in the next two seasons, his legend will only grow from there.

Now, as with everything, there look to be some downsides to this as well. Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe like to fly up and down the floor. That was when the 76ers were at their best last season. When they gave the keys to those guys and just let them run, the 76ers looked like a fun team. I fear, with James being the guy with the ball in his hands most of the time, those two won't get as many opportunities to run, and that could stifle their growth as the focal points of the team. And don't get it twisted, this is Tyrese Maxey's team now. He is the one they are trying to keep and build around. Adding Jaylen Brown was a big deal, but Maxey is the number one guy. Getting James to sign was awesome, but he has to know this is Maxey's team. I assume Embiid figured that out last season when he played and his post touches went way down. Maxey is the dude here, and Edgecombe is the clear number two guy. I don't think James will stifle them much, but any hindrance would be worrisome for me.

Joel Embiid and LeBron staying on the floor for long periods of time will be a problem as well. LeBron will be 42 in December. I will be 44 in December and getting older is tough on the body. LeBron James is a medical marvel, but time catches up to all of us at some point. And we all know Embiid's story way too well. He is such a supernova talent, but he is barely ever healthy. And he gets weird injuries too. It's not always your typical stuff.

I also worry that James may want to bring in "his guys". They have already done that with Caldwell-Pope. But what if he wants some of his other buddies to come to Philly? Russell Westbrook needs a new team, but that would not be so good for Philly. I know DeMar DeRozan is a free agent, but he is far too old to team him up with Edgecombe and Maxey in the backcourt. I heard that James may have wanted to team up with Kyrie Irving again, but if Philly were to trade for him, they would have to trade some good, young talent.

LeBron James comes with a host of great things, but there's also some issues too. I think Philly is done adding players. I fully believe they're all set now. They have one of the best starting fives in the NBA, if they can all stay on the floor. They are going to be a blast to watch. Again, I love that James chose this squad over all the other options. But I will be watching to see if anything looks funky or weird as we get deeper into the season. As of right now though, LeBron going to the 76ers makes them a legit title contender, and one of the top four teams in the East in my opinion.

The Grizzlies Need to Trade D'Angelo Russell Away

The Grizzlies finally got off of their former three top players, Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr and Desmond Bane, all within the past year. While I am bummed to see them go, this had to be done.

I wrote about them blowing that team up. Morant had become an off-court issue, Bane was traded out of nowhere, as was Jackson, and the team seemed to be running nowhere fast. They weren't playing all that well, and a change felt necessary. When Morant was finally traded, this included the Grizzlies acquiring D'Angelo Russell. I was not a fan of this move, but to get Morant out of the building, they had to take on Russell's contract.

My issue with Russell, he is a hollow scorer. His points mean nothing in the long run. He can fill up the stat sheet, but if you look at his team's success, it is not really there. He has never been the focal point of a team that has made deep playoff runs. And he is horrendous on the defensive end of the floor. I just didn't like the fit with what it looks like the Grizzlies are trying to do.

This version of the Grizz is going young and looks like they want to fly down the court. Drafting Cam Boozer was such a big deal and it was that decision that made me happiest with what the Grizzlies are trying to build now. Boozer is as NBA ready as any prospect in this past draft. He does need to improve defensively, but he is already there as an offensive player. He will score in bunches, can find open teammates, and I'd love to see the offense run through him in the very near future. Cedric Coward had an excellent rookie season, looked very good in Summer League and will be taking on even more of a lead role with this team now. He is a silent assassin, and I love that about him. He also looks like he has the chops to be a very solid defender in the NBA. Zach Edey has all the tools to dominate and be a great rim protector. He just has to stay healthy. That has been his biggest issue since he entered the league. But when he is on the floor, he is a monster. I'm super high on Karim Lopez. I feel like they got him much later than he should have been drafted, and he can fill Brandon Clarke's, RIP, role on this team. I think Jermari Grant and Isaiah Stewart can slide right into their roles as veteran leaders on this team. I'm excited to see what a healthy Ty Jerome, and what more minutes GG Jackson can provide this team. I think Walter Clayton Jr can be a solid backup point guard. I really like Scotty Pippen Jr, and even think he can start for them at point guard this season. I still believe in Jaylen Wells. Cam Spencer showed me a few things last season that intrigued me. And I want to see what O-Max Prosper and Quentin Post can bring to this squad.

So, looking up and down this roster, as I just did, Russell doesn't feel like a very good fit. I think he would take much needed touches and shots away from guys like Jackson, Pippen Jr, Jerome and Clayton Jr. He would try to run the offense on his own instead of letting it go through Boozer. I don't think he would ever have any consistency finding Edey on pick and roll lobs at the rim. Russell has his place in the NBA, but that should be with a team that doesn't really have any shot at winning meaningful games. He is an empty stats guy. He has never shown that he can get off the ball and run around screens. His defense, as mentioned before, is terrible. He may be a locker room menace. Basically, if the Grizzlies can get anything of note for him, they need to do that ASAP. The longer he stays on this roster, the more of a headache he will cause. And I fear he would stunt the growth of the younger guys they should be building around already. By all accounts the Grizzlies are looking to move him. I just hope it gets done soon, as in, today.

We shall see.

Better Never Than Late on "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot"

When I was younger I loved Kevin Smith's movies. That has never really changed for me. But as I have gotten older, his newer stuff has kind of fallen by the wayside. Growing up I adored "Clerks", "Dogma", "Chasing Amy" and "Mallrats". I would list those as some of my favorite movies. I never watched "Jersey Girl". I wanted to see "Cop Out", but it got awful reviews. I was always curious about his Superman movie that was possibly in the works in the late 90's/early 2000's. I even went to see "Clerks 2" when it came out in the theaters. But one movie that I unequivocally liked, and never deemed a "guilty pleasure", was "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back".

This movie was endlessly quotable for me. I used to watch it over and over again. I loved all the cameos and how funny I thought it  was at the time. Besides "Clerks" and "Dogma", "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" was third in line as my favorite Kevin Smith movie.

Kevin Smith grew up and started making different stuff. I get it, he wanted to try his hand at different things. I remember seeing "Tusk" and being grossed out, but interested. I never saw "Yoga Hosers", but some people I know who saw it said it was scary and funny. He had a role in the criminally underrated and bizarre "Southland Tales". He has tried to branch out, but it hasn't been the stuff I grew to like from him. And that is all well and good. People get older, have kids and want to try something else. I totally get it.

The other day I was searching for streaming movies and came upon the "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot". This definitely piqued my interest. As I said before, I adore the first movie about these two characters, I have always liked the Jay and Silent Bob dynamic, and I figured it would be a good nostalgia trip for me to watch this movie that came out in 2019.

Boy was I wrong.

This movie is bad. I hate to dump on stuff on the site here. I feel like that is all the internet is becoming now, but man oh man was this movie not good at all. It was retread joke after retread. It moved slowly and it was boring. Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith are much too old to be playing these characters anymore. I yell at my podcasts that I listen to when a 50 year old says stuff like, "LET'S GO", or they call someone "unc". That was all this movie was for me. It felt like two dudes just trying to capture what worked over 25 years ago, but they just got old and this makes them look silly.

I read that Smith wanted to make something with Jay and Silent Bob because the first movie was when Mewes was at his worst with his addictions. That is all well and good and makes sense, but this was the wrong movie to make together. They did the whole thing of, "we are going to get the band back together", but it just felt hollow and like the worst kind of nostalgia grab.

Jason Lee returned, but he was playing his character from "Mallrats". Lee is far too old and far too good of an actor to act like he still lives in his mom's basement and is pining to go to the mall. Joey Lauren Adams and Ben Affleck return as Amy and Holden, which should have worked. But it was just a reason for Smith and Affleck to bury the hatchet, and talk on screen as their characters as to what makes being a parent so awesome, all the while adding dick and fart jokes. Shannon Elizabeth and Rosario Dawson return, but it is for one scene and it is all just to set up Smith's daughter, Harley Quinn, and her character. Fred Armisen and Molly Shannon are wasted in their one scene. Hell, this movie even has Johnny Bananas, who is most known for being on reality tv competition shows, just so he can say, I kid you not, "this is bananas".

I loathed this movie. It made me visibly upset. My son saw me watching the movie and he asked me why I was even watching it. I didn't have an answer for him. I understand that Smith has reached a level where he can make what he wants, and he wanted to do this movie after his heart attack. I understand that he wanted to make amends with some people close to him. This movie was well intentioned on paper, but man was it really, really bad on screen. They tried to tell a story of growing older and becoming a parent, but Jay and Silent Bob never actually grew up. They were still telling the same tired jokes and it frustrated me.

Smith's prime is past him and it bums me out to say that. I think maybe he should continue to make low budget horror movies. If this was his attempt to return to the top and make these characters important again, he badly missed the mark. I watched this movie so now you don't have to. Skip this one. Save yourself the time.

Better Late Than Never on "Heathers"

As a kid I used to hear a ton about the movie "Heathers". I'm pretty sure it is/was one of my brothers favorite movies. But I used to hear all three of my older brothers talk about it incessantly. They would go on and on, quote it a ton and rewatch it constantly. But I never got around to it. I don't know if I was too young or deemed myself too cool at the time, but I never saw the movie until last night.

One of my brother's, the one who lives in town, kept telling me that I had to see it. He told me how much he thought I would like it. He gives me recommendations all the time, and for the most part, he is right on the money. But "Heathers" never found its way to my tv. But with my wife being out of town on a work trip, and my kids being too cool to hang out with me at night now, I decided that last night was a perfect time to watch.

From what I knew about the movie, as mentioned above, I figured I was in for your typical late 80's comedy. I thought it would be goofy and I would have some fun with the movie. But what I saw was the exact opposite, and I am here to say, "Heathers" is a classic for a reason. This movie more than lived up to the hype for me.

What blew me away the most was how absolutely dark the movie ended up being. I did not expect this to be a story of suicide and murder and friendship and cliques all wrapped up in a movie that clocks in under two hours. Sure, "Heathers" has some high school movie trademarks, but it goes so much further beyond all of that. For instance, the opening scene to the movie centers around the lunchroom. The popular girls are all ther, the "Heathers", and they decide to play a prank on another girl. They give her a fake love note to entice her to talk to the star QB. All the while, Veronica, played by Winona Ryder, keeps checking in on JD, played by Christian Slater. I don't think they know one another, but they keep making eyes at each other. When the other girl approaches the QB, he laughs in her face and she storms out of the lunchroom. But then the football players head over to JD's table to mess with him. Sure, this may all seem like typical high school movie drama, but here is where it veers into a whole different direction. When the football players begin to bully JD, he makes some quips back at them, and then pulls out a humongous gun. I was shocked when I saw it. He fires the gun, but we quickly learn it was filled with blanks and JD gets suspended. Everyone is okay on the surface. But the movie just ramps it up from there. This is the lightest take they have on suicide, murder and death in this whole movie.

One of the Heather's bullies Veronica to go to a party, where a college guy tries to prey on Veronica. When she deflects his advances, Heather makes fun of her and makes her leave the party. She confides this to JD, and they decide to prank Heather, only JD is not in the mood for pranks anymore. They accidentally kill Heather by making her drink poison. And instead of confessing, they make it look like suicide. They do a similar thing to the football players. But during all of this, Veronica thinks no one will actually get hurt. JD, on the other hand, wants to, as he puts it, "cleanse" the school of cliques and bullies. He clearly takes it way too far. And this is the theme of the entire movie. I couldn't believe a movie from the 80's went to these lengths. It shocked me that they did, but shocked me in a good way.

Winona Ryder and Christian Slater are at the absolute top of their game. I was telling my brother about the movie this morning, and how awesome I thought it was, and he asked me about the chemistry with Ryder and Slater. It was off the charts. You could tell they enjoyed acting with one another. I read afterward that they supposedly were dating while on set, and that makes total sense to me.

I also finally got some context for some of the stuff my brothers used to say. My oldest brother always used to say, "F>$k me gently with a chainsaw" when I was younger. That's from this movie. When one of the football players dies, his dad exclaims, "I love my dead gay son". I have heard that used over and over again in movies and tv shows. I finally got some of the quotes. I wish that Big Fun was a real band, because the song that plays throughout the movie is cool as hell. The adults in this movie were so aloof and disinterested in their kids' lives, as I'm sure they were directed to be, and it worked.

I really liked "Heathers" quite a bit. I get why my brothers have been on me for so long to watch it. It was so good and I am so happy that I finally watched it. I definitely recommend checking it out if you've never seen it.

Thoughts on Michigan AD Warde Manuel Leaving

It was announced earlier today that University of Michigan Athletic Director Warde Manuel will be stepping down at the end of the calendar year.

This feels like it has been a long time coming. I was happy when they hired Manuel because it seemed like he really cared. He wanted Michigan to be back on top. He was sick of them being simply mediocre. He was going to make changes, and the changes sounded pretty damn good to me as a fan. I had high hopes.

And boy did he deliver.

Michigan won a football and men's basketball championship under his watch. The sports program grew and got much, much better. The university became so much more than just a football school. They had the two titles, but the other programs were thriving as well. Men's gymnastics has an Olympian on the team. The women's basketball team is a constant in the tournament, and they even made a push to the Sweet Sixteen last year. The hockey team made the Frozen Four, and they have a great roster coming back for next season. The baseball team and softball team are always competitive. The men's and women's soccer teams are solid. The sports at Michigan are thriving, and a lot of that has to do with Manuel.

But he screwed up a lot as well.

Both coaches from the title teams left immediately after they won. Jim Harbaugh couldn't wait to get out of there. He claimed it was due to other extenuating circumstances, but it was also reported that he and Manuel did not have a good relationship. You could see as much at the parade. They wouldn't even look at one another during the speeches. Manuel said he was going to do whatever he could to keep Harbaugh, but we the fans saw the writing on the wall. Harbaugh was fed up with Manuel, Manuel was fed up with him, and they seperated loudly and angry with one another.

Manuel and Harbaugh were both on board with the Sherrone Moore hire, as was I, and we all saw how they unfolded. I have to believe that Manuel knows so much more about that situation than he is letting on, and now that he is on the way out, maybe he will do some kind of tell all. But all of that happened under Manuel. Maybe he tried to cover some stuff up, maybe he tried to keep some people silent, whatever it was, Manuel did a shady thing and let a very shady thing happen while he was the AD.

I was hopeful that the men's basketball team would have Dusty May for a long, long time. He turned that team around so fast. They went from 8-24 to the Sweet Sixteen to the national title. It ruled. May knew how to work the portal while still recruiting highly rated freshmen. He understood the ins and outs of NIL. He had it all. But he got up and left. He signed to be the next head coach of the Dallas Mavericks. He didn't leave the cupboard bare, but he just bounced as soon as he got a better offer. May would rather coach pros making way more money than him than stick around and become a college basketball coaching legend. He said that it was due to the current climate of college sports, which may be true. But I have to believe that there was something going on behind the scenes with him and Manuel.

Manuel claimed he had given May a humongous brand new contract, and that it was all but a done deal that he was going to be the coach at Michigan for a long, long time. But when that contract stayed unsigned by May, I got nervous. Then he left. I have to think Manuel played a hand in this. Both national title coaches were gone not even a month after winning the championship.

This is all a bummer, but don't forget some of the other stuff that has happened as of late on Manuel's time. The baseball coach that brought them to the CWS left after that season to coach at Clemson. The longtime softball coach decided to retire out of the blue. There is an ongoing investigation dealing with the whole blowout from the Moore situation. And I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff behind the scenes that I'm not privy to. Warde Manuel delivered on some of the biggest promises he made when he was announced as the AD, and for that I will be forever grateful. But he also leaves with a mess for the new AD to clean up. I do feel like this is the final semblance of the Harbaugh regime. Manuel stepping down feels like the last thing Michigan needed to fully get off all of the stuff that came with Harbaugh, May and Manuel.

I hope the new AD is as ambitious as Manuel, but goes about it the correct and honorable way. Time will tell, but at least Manuel and Michigan are finally moving on from one another.

Physical Media Lives Again

Earlier today I took my 14 year old to sell some of my dad's old CDs. He had no use for them, I don't own a CD player and my son strictly listens to Spotify. I got rid of my CDs almost a decade ago. I do own and buy vinyl now, but that is simply because I want to be as cool as my brothers and my friends. My son is all about digital media. That is what he likes, that is what this generation likes and I have to assume my daughter will be the same when she gets her phone next year.

So, going to V Stock, a local store that buys and sells old media, I figured there wouldn't be much of an inventory. I was very, very wrong. First off, my dad had a bunch of CDs to sell. There was a Rubbermaid full of CDs. I didn't think we'd sell that many, but there was only 1/10 of that bin left after we were done. That should have been my first clue that physical media is having a moment. But it wasn't until I walked around the store did I truly realize how much people still buy and collect older things.

V Stock was full of CDs, DVDs, Blu Rays, old collectible toys, older gaming systems, vinyl and they even had VHS', among other random nonsense. I immediately went to check out the vinyl. They had a solid selection, but it was a little too pricey for my blood. They did have some older, used records for a solid price, but there was no gold to be found. But it was the CD and DVD/Blu Ray selection that really blew my mind. They had so much. They had shelves stocked with them. They had Criterion Collection Blu Rays. They had a whole DVD section that was strictly classic movies. They had Marvel and DC movies on their own end caps. They had a whole section of TV series on DVD. I remember buying those up when it was the only option.

The CD section was, possibly, the biggest section in the store. And they had old, new, used and special CDs in the store. They had rare stuff. They had a bunch of live CDs for sale. They had stuff in alphabetical order, but much like the DVDs, they also had certain CDs in their own special section of the store. I saw a bunch of Black Keys CDs, both new and old, and I have, at one time in my life, owned every single one of them. I even thought that maybe they had some of my old ones there for sale.

The VHS section had me floored too. First off, I remember when VHS went the way of the dodo. I remember getting rid of them and not even being all that sad. But V Stock had a bunch of them for sale today. They even had the old puffy Disney VHS boxes. I have not seen those in years. I know some people collect those, so if you're reading this, go check out V Stock now to get the puffy box VHS. I also really enjoyed the collectible toy section. They had them all sealed in bags, but you could still see what they were.

I saw a bunch of old He-Man toys that one of my brothers had. They had a bunch of "Thundercat" toys there. They were up to their ears in collectible Funko Pop toys. They had some from series or comic books that I have never even heard of before. Funko Pop toys are cool and all, but this place made them feel super special. It kind of blew me away to be honest with you all today.

I know that some people are really into physical media, but this really opened my eyes. I like that physical media is having a comeback. I hope it sticks around for a long time. I have really been happy to be collecting vinyl again. I love the artwork and all the added stuff records provide for the buyer. I've heard people talk about Blu Rays and Criterion discs, but it didn't really hit me how important this stuff is to collectors today. They had a Super Nintendo for sale today, and I kind of wanted to buy it just to play the games I used to play growing up.

While the trip to the mall and to V Stock today went on way longer than I expected, I was very happy with what I saw and witnessed this afternoon. Physical media has always had a place for a bunch of people, and right now it is having a moment. That makes me smile and I want to see it go on for a long, long time.

Better Late Than Never on "They Will Kill You"

Yesterday I watched the movie "They Will Kill You". Let’s discuss.

I remember seeing a trailer for this movie sometime ago, and it intrigued me. I like these stylized, hyper violent movies that throw in some comedy. These movies are supposed to be "horror" movies, but even HBOMax called it a "horror/comedy". That made me even more interested. I had planned on going to see it in the theaters, but it came and it went pretty quickly. I thought maybe it was due to poor reviews, but the movie has a 65% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is on the good side of fresh, according to their website.

So, after waiting a few days, I finally pressed play, and I found myself having a damn good time with this movie. "They Will Kill You" is fun, goofy, gory, bloody, over the top and hilarious. Everything I had heard about the movie was true. The people who wrote and directed this movie knew exactly what they were doing. The cast was all in as well. That was my biggest takeaway. When you have everyone buy into such a ridiculous premise, that is always a good sign to me. That means everyone seemed to be having a good time making the movie, and that definitely showed on screen.

The plot of the movie is pretty simple. A pair of sisters get separated, go their own ways and reunite so one sister can save the other. It's a story of family and violence. Zazie Beetz plays our lead, Asia Reaves. She is so awesome in this role. She knew the assignment and took it to the best possible level. I also read that she put in the work. She trained super hard, did a bunch of her own stunts and even learned how to properly wield an axe. There's a scene in which Beetz lights an axe on fire and goes on to decimate some of the people that live within the hotel that is our main set for the entirety of the movie. It was one of the raddest things I've ever seen. I also liked her quick backstory of how she learned to fight so well. She simply tells the person asking her how she learned to fight, and she simply says, "jail". I loved every second Beetz was on screen, and that was the entire movie. Myha'la plays her sister, Maria. She doesn't have as big a role, but she gets some solid jokes in there, and her final scene, where she wants some breakfast, is pretty perfect for a movie like this. Patricia Arquette plays the head maid in the hotel. She is an Irish lady who clearly has some kind of secret she's hiding. She may or may not have made a deal with Satan. That will be for you all to find out when you watch the movie. Arquette is having a moment right now, and she is doing some very cool, very different stuff that I am a big time fan of. Tom Felton, Heather Graham, David Viviers, Gabe Gabriel and Willie Ludok all play Arquette's minions in the movie. It was pretty rad to see Felton and Graham on screen again. I haven't seen them in anything in awhile, and they were more than up to task in this movie. They seemed to have a real good time making this. Paterson Joseph plays Arquette's husband, and he is tired and just wants out. I thought he did a really fantastic job in this movie. Overall, what I enjoyed a ton with this movie, they really went for it. They knew the premise was wild. They knew the gore was over the top. They knew that the fight scenes were going to be epic. And they absolutely ran with it.

I'm so glad that I turned this movie on and watched it yesterday. I had a total blast during the 90 minute runtime. I highly recommend this movie, especially to people who like horror/gore mixed with comedy. Beetz was so much fun to watch as well. I was already a fan of hers, but after seeing this, she is quickly becoming one of my favorites in the business. Check this movie out.

Ty Watches "The Bear" Final Season

After five wonderful seasons, "The Bear" has come to an end.

I really enjoyed this show. I liked every season. Each season had an episode or two or three that really stuck with me. I, like a bunch of other people, truly love "Forks" and "Fishes". But there are some other gems in there. The one shot in season one during a super rush is great. I appreciate the whole back and forth with Carmy and Claire. The wedding episode where Richie's ex gets remarried is pretty solid. I even like the third and fourth seasons, which some people were lukewarm on. When the final season was released, I tried to put it off as long as I could. I didn't want the show to end. This has been one of my favorite shows since the pandemic.

I do want to say, "The Bear" has won a ton of awards, but it is not a comedy. There are comedic elements, but this show is a drama. Full stop. Anyway, my family had a four hour flight to Seattle a few weeks back, so I decided this was the best time for me to start this final season. I know that the creators never intended for people to watch their show on an iphone while flying to another city, but here we are. I ripped through the first four episodes on the flight out there.

I truly loved that they had the final season focus on one dinner service. As with most shows, things happened that were outrageous. From burst pipes to people falling through the roof, shit really hits the fan. Throughout the final season there are many ups and downs. But this service is also going to make or break the restaurant. They believe a big time reviewer is coming in that night. The storm has not stopped people from making reservations. They are overbooked, but Richie wants to see it all through. Oliver Platt and The Computer are trying to find ways to keep the store afloat. Ebra has his idea to franchise the sandwich portion of the restaurant, he is just biding his time before pitching his idea to Carmy. It is revealed that not only Carmy is leaving, but the other dessert chef, played by Will Poulter, is heading back to Copenhagen. Lionel Boyce's dad is coming in to have a meal. Sydney is stressed and feels overworked. The wait staff is unprepared. It is all the typical sitcom type stuff, but "The Bear" finds a way to make it great and incredibly watchable. I know people always seem to have some kind of gripe about finales, and while I'm sure there are people out there that are complaining right now, I thought they wrapped it up kind of perfectly. I watched the final four episodes the week after we got back, and I was very pleased with what they did. We didn't get any "Five years later" stuff. I'm growing weary of that simply because it always works out for the people on the show. The finale took place the day after the hectic service, and we got a look at how everyone felt going into work the next day. We did get a mild time jump, but it was just to see Carmy give a monologue, and to watch Richie throw a surprise party for his daughter. There was no, so and so went on to do this, or Sydney ended up as the world's greatest chef, or Richie and his new girlfriend got married. We are left to make our own conclusions, and I appreciate that. We don't need to be force fed happy endings all the time.

While "The Bear" ended on a high note, we don't know where they all ended up a month after this service. I like to imagine that Sydney is running a successful, but nerve wracking restaurant. I imagine Carmy is trying to be an architect. I believe Richie has found his way as a host and GM of the restaurant, and has his staff humming along. I, as boring as it may sound, like the fact that, in my mind, they are all just living regular, normal lives. That is what I took away most from this show.

"The Bear" had one hell of a run. It came and went and never really overstayed its welcome. I believe that it will be remembered as one of the better shows of the 2020's. And while it may win some more Emmys for comedy, I still fully believe it is a drama. But that is a topic for another day.

Go watch and rewatch this final season. "The Bear" went out on a very good, very high note. Thank you for five great seasons of television.

Ty Watches "Obsession"

My wife and I sat down last weekend and finally saw "Obsession". I figured it was time when RD told me how much he liked the movie. I'm going to do a review today, but it will be as spoiler free as possible. Please read ahead if you're thinking about seeing this movie because nothing will be exposed today.

I first heard about the movie right after I saw "Backrooms". I saw some posters for it at the theater I went to, but I never gave it much thought. It wasn't until I was looking for other movies to watch similar to "Backrooms" did "Obsession" really pop on my radar. I do think that the only true comparison for both of these movies is, they're in the horror genre, and both are directed by young kids who got their start on YouTube. Other than that, these are two different, and very good movies. That’s the first thing I want to say about "Obsession", this is a very scary and very well made movie. I do think it is scarier than "Backrooms". Where "Backrooms" is more creepy, "Obsession" is way more gory and has many more jump scares, which I have found that I have begun to like in certain horror movies. But you can tell with both movies that these young kids have a deft hand and should be making movies for a very long time. They have both proved that they belong and they will be around for as long as they want to make movies. The follow ups will tell a lot, but they have come out of the gate swinging.

What I liked about "Obsession" so much was how quickly they get into it. There's a little backstory just so we know the characters and why they are on the paths they're on. But when the male lead makes the wish, about 15-20 minutes into the movie, we are off and running. That was another thing I found I really enjoyed about this movie, the casting. I hadn't heard of anyone who was in the movie, except for Andy Richter, and he has a very minor part. The four main leads are young, working actors, but I wouldn't have been able to pick them out of a lineup before seeing this movie. Megan Lawless plays Sarah, and Cooper Tomlinson plays Ian. They're friends with our two main characters, Bear, played by Michael Johnston, and Nikki, played by Inde Navarrette. Sarah and Ian are co stars, but they do a ton with the time they have on screen. Ian is the life of the party and just wants to have a good time. He never takes anything too seriously, but when he does it may be a little too late. Sarah wants to be an artist and she has a crush on the male lead, which feels like it is not reciprocated. She has a wonderful scene with Nikki at a party that is at times funny and terrifying. Bear is a total pushover. He is meek and cowardly and stays that way pretty much throughout the movie. I grew to despise his actions, which I believe is the point, as the movie went on. And Nikki, she is thrust into a world that she wants nothing to do with, but it is out of her control. Navarrette gives a star turning performance. She should be considered for every award. The stuff she is able to do with facial expressions alone is haunting and so well done. She absolutely owned this movie and I'm certain she is going to get so much more work from this. The way she slips back and forth between two characters is mesmerizing. She has all the talent in the world and  she showed that in this performance. It is one for the ages. I was blown away by her work.

And the story, oh man does it get pretty crazy. The way the movie escalates all the way to the conclusion was a sight to behold. The movie heightens at a fast pace, but it is still able to tell the story that it wants to. I couldn't believe the stuff I was watching and I was on the edge of my couch for the entirety of the movie. I also appreciated that they put jokes in there from time to time just to cut the tension and ease up just a hair before scaring the hell out of me in the very next scene. The scene between Bear and Nikki at the nice restaurant is a masterful play of just how creepy vibes can get when something feels off.

"Obsession" is totally worth the hype. There's so much more I want to say, but I also want people to see it for themselves and draw their own conclusions. I want to hear what others think about the movie, and mainly, about the final scene and the stuff going on over the end credits. I highly recommend watching this movie. It is a good, scary and quality time wherever you may watch it.
