    The darts was great! The football was often underwhelming but occasionally they would get it spot on. I’m still convinced I assisted a Ward Prowse goal at Stamford bridge once.

    The main problem with 3d is focus, in a 2d film you concentrate on the person or thing in sharp focus, not the background which would be blurred. In 3d anything not in sharp focus in the foreground looks odd. I remember watching Avatar in 3d at the cinema and when the main character does his video diary, he was in focus but the video camera wasn't and it was distracting.
    3d really only works with animated films.

    Johnny Cash's version of Hurt is terrible.





    People only rate it because it was an unexpected choice for an old country crooner and some of the lyrics seemed a bit bang on given Cash's impending mortality.

    Cash can't sing and he killed loads of endangered condors.

    I didn't know this. https://www.thevintagenews.com/2016...cres-killed-49-refuges-53-endangered-condors/
    "Cash was unrepentant and claimed, “I don’t care about your damn yellow buzzards.”
    To then taunt the species by releasing "Ring of Fire" is just unacceptable. What kind of monster was he ?
    I have deleted this song from my phone song library. May the 49 condors RIP.

    Wasn't it the last song that he released before his death? I think that coupled with a good video provide it's legacy. Almost a bit like Heath Ledger and The Joker without the killing of endangered birds.

    That doesn’t say he killed them, only that the fire, carelessly, but not maliciously started, drove them off. Being birds they could simply fly away and when they returned there would be plenty of barbecued carrion for them to feast on.

    I don’t doubt he was a bit of a twunt though and a complete **** when intoxicated.
