Monaco is always a parade, but this year seems to be hitting an enough is enough level. I don't have any idea where they are going to find more room unless you do dangerous stuff like taking out the chicane and letting them get over 200mph next to the harbor again. You're racing inside a city...
Much more balanced in Hockey than in Soccer, the goalies cover much more of the net just standing there. In a 5 round shootout it usually ends with the goalie stopping more than they let in.
Saw it today. It did a really great job of building on the mythology of the Wasteland and was pretty beautifully shot throughout. Hemsworth was the standout, Anya Taylor-Joy and the actress who played young Furiosa were really good, but all the main character actors did a solid job.
Having said...
I've seen thousands of hits in the 40+ years I have watched and played hockey. That may be the most dangerous I've ever seen for the one initiating the hit. Fucking madness.
This is true. I was born in the US but lived in Germany for most of my formative years and I still eat without switching hands. It strikes me as weird when I see people doing it quite a lot.
Entire season has been really good but episode 13 was excellent. The entire Omega part of the ep was pure Andor quality and the Batch part of the ep was so tense. This show is overdelivering this season.
This playoffs is going to be nuts. It feels like its been playoff tempo and importance for the last month already especially in the Eastern Conference.
Go Kings Go!!
Great to see Ventress back, and definitely continuing to develop as a character. Wouldn't be surprised to see her in this series as the backdoor pilot for the next animated show.
this looks like its going to be multiple seasons from the press that's come out the last two days. Would be cool to see this become a direct prequel to Palpatine getting into the system with Plagueis being a main character.
I seem to recall Fury Road cleaning up things a lot in the last few months between its trailers and the release. Either way, George Miller has my money until he proves me wrong.
It certainly does look like he is getting increasingly more stylized with each movie though. Cartoony isn't that far off.
This really bums me out. I was an absolutely rabid hockey follower at the time, a bit moreso than I am today, and it was still the fighting era. Big Chief was a monster whenever he was on the ice. RIP.

holy shit the swagger on Rempe as he went into that fight. With his huge size advantage that could have been a slaughter, well done on Deslauriers to keep that close. That looked like Stu Grimson sizing up a fight there. Classic old school slobberknocker.
Anyone seen any updates on Oshie's injury last night? I'm assuming it has to be a knee or achilles issue being non-contact but it was pretty uncomfortable to watch. You don't see players crawl off the ice everyday.
Really good start. Tone is really serious in ep 1 and 3, you can see where this is going to tie everything we've seen so far in the entire franchise together a lot. Ep 1 felt like it was in the same vein as an Andor episode. Really tight and very serious tonally

Summer release, really excited for this series. Bad Batch until May 1, this sometime between June and September, and then we still have Tales of the Jedi and Skeleton Crew, which will be holiday 2024

Really interested to see how Ventress is still around. They say they are sticking to the Dark Disciple story so she should be dead. Probably going to dive a little more into Nightsister rez magic here like they did in Ahsoka.
Looks like it’s going to be a fun season.
