Mixed feelings on the new 30 for 30 on Bill McCartney and the Colorado Buffaloes. It was about 20 minutes too long and parts of it come across as a cheesy fluff piece about his "redemption". On the other hand, it offered some nice insights into their Orange Bowl seasons.

"Four Falls of Buffalo" was fucking excellent.

Watched "The Prince of Pennsylvania" last night. Found it pretty riveting. Made me want to watch "Foxcatcher."

The big documentary film festival here in town starts next weekend. It is usually quite a bit of fun.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

My personal faves:

Room 237
Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows
Ghosts of the West: The End of the Bonanza Trail (2012)
Soaked In Bleach
Paradise Lost (all of them)
The Central Park Five
Murder Rap-I thought it would suck since Biggie and Tupac was terrible but this is a very intriguing crime documentary

[epilogue]

Room 237 is so much fun. It's total batshit crazy, but I enjoyed it.
