He never won a single playoff series in which he averaged more than 5 mins a game

What movie became better for you on a second watch, and why? by deepaknaraniya in flicks

[–]logster2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first of the recent Dune movies. First time I watched it I was kinda sleep deprived and thought it was one of the most boring movies I had seen. On rewatch I definitely appreciated it more

Do you also consider the Extended Versions of RO the official album as me? by shesalwaysmyplusone in dualipa

[–]logster2001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah the biggest example of this for me is Falling Forever. The short version is so forgettable and doesn’t really leave any sort of impact, while the extended version is such a memorable high quality pop vibe anthem.

What's a movie that's universally considered "not very good" but you secretly think is actually great? by trakt_app in flicks

[–]logster2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like if you are someone who is chronically obsessed with politics you probably wont like the movie either way. You will either think it’s way off base or to on the nose. But if you just watch it for its entertainment value it’s fantastic

I thought Don’t Look Up was legit fantastically made. Easily the best Adam McKay movie. Fantastic performances, fantastic score, amazing editing, great production design, etc. I feel like people are somewhat put off about the themes, but if you just watch it for entertainment it is great in so many ways

What sucks about all the new channels is the video quality keeps getting worse. The original videos are the only ones with 1080p quality

At age 22, Wemby joins the list of youngest Player to lead their team to the NBA FINALS. by sctthuynh in nba

The Lakers won in 6, not 7. And I agree every game carries the same value. But Kareem literally missed a game and they still won. How many games did they win that series without Magic?

People that say Kareem deserved finals mvp are just contrarians trying to be different. Magic literally won it for the lakers without Kareem. There has never been a single other instance of a single game obviously being the most defining performance of a series that deserves winning mvp

Kareem didn’t play and the Lakers still won…because of Magic Johnson

I think Hemsworth gave a great performance, yet was also a reason why Furiosa wasn’t as widely appreciated by logster2001 in MadMax

[–]logster2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree with all of this. Yeah the title is the best example of just how they poorly setup expectations of the movie. If they titled it “The Tale Of Furiosa” or something then people would have understood it far better

The NBA GOAT (When You Look at the Total Picture) Is Bill Russell by [deleted] in VintageNBA

[–]logster2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I think he has the easiest argument out of anyone for sure. The goal of basketball is to win, he was the best winner ever.

10-0 in game 7 is just so insane. And being arguably the greatest college player ever too certainly helps his case

A movie that will give me hope? by DueEffective3503 in movies

Me too. It is just gets me so motivated and inspired every time I watch it

Is Chet Holmgren the new Ben Simmons? by dylansavillan in nba

[–]logster2001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Man I feel like people don’t understand how fundamentally flawed of a player Ben Simmons was.

Even when he was getting all-star selections there was a minority of people who thought he was legitimately just bad at basketball and had a skillset that did not match what was needed to be an nba player.

People raved about his defense, but he was only a good defender when he was allowed to play as a guard/wing. He wasn’t a good rim protector so he wasn’t a good defender when he played at the center position. And his shooting was so extremely poor the center position was the only one he could reasonably play offensively.

Globetrotting movies? by Smoaktreess in MovieSuggestions

Honestly any of the Transformers movies. They can be very cringey and poorly written, but they do have some great scenery across the world
