SuperBacon Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 @Cod Eye and all other Last Chance U fans. There's another decent thing that I've just blitzed through on Netflix called QB1: Beyond The Lights, which focuses on high school quarterbacks already committed to colleges. It's well worth a watch if you like that sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted August 22, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 22, 2018 Fancied watching this documentary about Blackadder I'd seen a while back and was pleased to see it was on YouTube. It's a feature length light hearted retrospective of the whole show with loads of the people involved chatting about it. Tim Mcinernny comes across as a bit of an arsehole though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted August 24, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 24, 2018 Documentaries are not my field of expertise at all, I watch way too few of them. So I was wondering if anybody knew if there were any good ones out there about ghost towns or lost cities, abandoned places, that sort of thing? Someone just recommended me City 40, anyone know of any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBO are tremendous between this and the Andre doc. Highly recommended. Caught the Andre doc finally the other day (its available on Sky Atlantic catchup). Its a great film but didnt really tell me anything i didnt already know. Id highly recommend for anyone who doesnt know the Andre story though. Wrestling fan or not. I really do need to start watching these inside sports teams documentary series though, them things will be right up my street. Edited August 25, 2018 by Egg Shen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Been watching all of the NFL All or Nothing series on Amazon and really enjoyed them considering I know little to nothing about American Football. Read somewhere else that the 30 for 30 docs are pretty good too? Are they available anywhere or do I need to subscribe to ESPN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I used to watch them on the ESPN channel and BT Sport. Â They're brilliant. I'm sure some of them are on YouTube and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted September 6, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 6, 2018 Watched the whole of OJ: Made in America yesterday and it's absolutely stunning, isn't it? I find documentaries frustrating a lot of the time because I just think it's a really flawed genre that often struggles to give the subjects it chooses enough depth. You couldn't accuse this of that, though. Its depth and field of research is astounding, an amazing achievement by all involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted September 6, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 6, 2018 Yeah. It's one of those I don't feel shy about recommending, despite it's length, because it's so gripping all the way through. About as good as it gets.

AnotherCrapUsername Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Anyone know where I cam watch the docu-drama about rockstar games that was on BBC 2 a few years back starring Daniel Radcliife? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted September 7, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 7, 2018 Ken Burn's Vietnam series on Netflix at the moment is well worth your time. It's mainly focused on the stories of soldiers and civilians (on both sides), but it's got some fascinating clips of various Presidents tearing their hair out about it. Cracking original soundtrack, as well as the usual Vietnam hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Dead Mike Posted September 7, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 7, 2018 I started the Ken Burns Vietnam doc after hearing so much about it. It's really good but I've found it quite hard going tbh. Something you've really got to be in the mood for. If you've even a passing interest in the 'Nightmare On Elm St' films I'd recommend 'Never Sleep Again' (available on youtube), another mammoth documentary that covers every film in the series in great detail with a surprising amount of honesty over what worked & what was dogshit.

The Friday the 13th one "Crystal Lake Memories" is great too, as it "You're So Cool Brewster" telling the story of the making of Fright Night and Fright Night II... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
