It's the Year of the Tiger!
(He says, noticing, cripes, his own birth sign as another 12-year cycle has gone by :-D )
Led by that sports betting spot, there's a strong Ancient Rome vibe in a lot of the ads, which is kind of an odd flex for our late empire days.
How the hell did Bobsled happen? Like, skiing, there were hills, ice skating, there were frozen ponds. But somehow sledding, they started making these giant runs covered in ice?
It seems weird that so many movies aren't available for streaming, like even to rent or buy individually. After watching the Get Back documentary and hearing all the late era Beatles' referencing Hamburg, I want to rewatch this pretty decent movie "Backbeat" about their time there. (Great soundtrack; they had modern bands cover their songs with a kind of punk-ish vibe, trying to convey how the music was pretty raw for its time.) So it's either my DVD of it, or maybe I'll order the Blu-Ray, since now even my unfussy eyes note so much less than 1080p resolution.
