With Adam Deexan here and presumably drunk, and the shitstorm of the Rio Olympics in the news, it's time to talk about Eddie the fucking Eagle.
I finally saw it recently and it's - awesome. I'm a young American so I don't know jackshit about Eddie the Eagle beyond what the movie tells me. He's a Forest Gump type who uses the help of Wolverine to be... mediocre at the Winter Olympics? Like Cool Runnings, a childhood favorite of mine, and Rudy, a classic among men, it's the story of people trying their best. You don't HAVE to be great. Just be passionate and work hard and have fun. In a time when Donald Trump could be President and Brexit happened, this is a nice feel-good movie to watch.
Also, Matthew Vaughn > Christopher Nolan
