    Let's Talk Movies #36 - 2020 - Yep it is a new decade

    I watched A Real Pain. It makes me want to visit Poland, and do a tour. The clumsy use of classical music annoyed. But…. I hate Kieran Culkin’s Character so much!!! And found his performance revolting. Beyond winning for such a dreadfully boring performance, how in the world is deemed a...

    Fall 2024-Summer 2025 New/Returning/Streaming/TV Shows

    Also, Dylan Moskovitch is in the show as a male singles skater. Killing it with a single axel! Just noticed him as I rewatch the series tonight. Episode 5 is brilliant but episode 3 is the one I rewatch the most. I love Kip’s friend group so much. I hope to see more of Scott and Kip next...

    How many skaters next season will skate to Moonlight Sonata with lines of Ilya’s Russian monologue interspersed?

    Skate Canada won’t host Alberta events due to sports gender law

    And what about novice competitions or adult competitions? It’s not just about elites.

    Skate Canada won’t host Alberta events due to sports gender law

    Skate Canada or Canadians has to be in BC, right? They already had one in SK, so we are now the only Western option. Western Alienation, what?

    Fall 2024-Summer 2025 New/Returning/Streaming/TV Shows

    Looking is kinda typical serialized TV drama about people in a coastal city with relationship dramas. I prefer the condensed, hyper-focused storytelling of Heated Rivalry.

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    The French is not the exemption but the last. We had teams like B&A, Shibs, V&M, D&W, move up quite rapidly. This past quad has had very little movement at the top (I guess it changes with the new French team, but please) and I doubt many people would think the current top 3 teams compare to any...

    Canadian Champion curler and broadcaster Colleen Jones has died

    Such a TV presence in my life as a youth, like Barb and Paul, Rod Black, Tracey Wilson, Dick and Peggy. Also, her athletic record is astonishing. A great personality.

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    Interesting, as I always thought that Weaver and Poje also benefited from that male female chemistry thing, especially with Je Suis Malade. Contrast that to a team like Gilles and Poirier that have never benefited from that. But this discussion takes me back to that Virtue Moir docuseries where...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    The Shibs are the literally the only team that actually keep up with their music. In some ways, the music is catching up to them. So much kinetic energy in their midline sequence, twizzles and whatever that stupid boards element is called. No other rd takes me back to my high school days like...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    Human musicians can't make much money regardless of AI, what with streaming. So, they make money via touring. Will people buy tickets for a concert "featuring" AI artists? I know there are events like that ABBA thing, but how viable is that? I didn't even know about AI music until the FD...

    Chinese GP Ice Dancers have missile stuffie in K&C - ISU investigating

    I am assuming this team trains in Canada? If this becomes more of a story, Canada will be caught in the middle if we are motivated to have this affect their work visa, kinda like the extradition case of Meng Wenzhou? And what if there is a 4CC or some other event in the US? This can affect the...

    Let's Talk Movies #36 - 2020 - Yep it is a new decade

    I was the same. I kinda hate the first few scenes (I hate scenes of skinny hot people eating a lot of food, but at least here I can rationalize that they burn a lot of calories doing dance choreography and killing demons) and the first song is my least favourite. But by Golden, I was into it...

    No one is gonna convince me that V&M’s RD is inferior to whatever D&W were doing. FD may be another matter but it showed the coaching team had different ideas for each of them. C&B have it in them to out better a friggin Vogue RD and an ode to Brendan Fraser in a fat suit.

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    Just watching it right. She says Adrian Diaz announced his retirement right after 22 Worlds, which completely shocked her. Was it that surprising? I guess I was expecting it, because that’s what skaters do and Adrian and Madison are together (right?) so I just assumed they would retire together.
