I watched the Charlie Sheen Documentary 'aka Charlie Sheen' and I'd highly recommend it.

I'm generally inherently disinclined to take Charlie Sheen's word for just about everything but man did that guy have an incredible support system and the fact that they didn't give up on him is almost unbelievable.

I never thought a documentary about Charlie Sheen on Netflix would be inspirational and that emotion invoking.

Denise Richards is a serious champ, Jon Cryer is amazingly well-spoken, I'd love to have a beer or two with that guy and honestly? Tony Todd seems like an amazingly stand-up guy, I cant imagine how he fit in with that crowd.

Watched the John Candy doc yesterday. Very heart warming and he is clearly missed even to this day by those who loved him. This is a great doc to watch if you want a nice pick me up during these trying times.

The new docu-series on Scorsese is outstanding. 5 episodes, each clocking in around 50-60 minutes, so it's a lot to get through. But if you're a fan of this guy's work, it's easily the most comprehensive doc ever done on the man. So good.

Can confirm this documentary is crazy. Makes me want to be as far from volcanoes as possible regardless of their activity. Some harrowing stuff in there. As soon as the guide goes "well, it's never done that before." I'm running.

Watched this a few nights ago and holy ####, I now know what is without question the worst way to die (or survive). The people speaking about the injuries they suffered as a volcano erupted literally beside them...god damn. They purposely didn't show the victims in the footage immediately after it happened and for good reason, as even years and surgeries later you can see the scarring on their bodies and it's heart wrenching. Absolutely wild watch.

Did a re-watch of Dear Zachary last night. Also obviously heart wrenching, but didn't hit me the same way it did my first watch years ago. Probably because I knew the twist that was coming, but mostly due that the film style was hard to follow. So many scene chops, inserted voice samples and rapid clips that jump all over the place. Honestly, it felt like watching an hour and a half long tik tok video where the narrator was one giant long sentence, my brain could barely keep up. That style was ahead of it's time when the doc first came out, but now days it's annoying to me. Still a crazy story and worth watching.

Whatever you do, don't look up the PT extinction event.

The scene where they interview Brochu in his living room and he's laughing his head off? "Chef's Kiss"

Jeeeezus!

I'm about ~40mins in...whoever was in charge of the music for this documentary is a sadistic bastard.

You know its going to erupt...thats the premise of the show...but the music just builds and builds and builds...

So far its been great though.
