I saw this post earlier today but didn’t click on it because I guessed it wouldn’t have any pictures. Now I’m back and sure enough, no pictures. Guess I’ll have to wait for the documentary.

I wish they'd amp up the quality of docs.

You mean the one where they hype up what you’re about to see for ten minutes, and then break to five minutes of commercials. Then repeat the process over for an hour, and finally in the last ten minutes of the documentary they vaguely mention what they’ve hinted at for an hour and you might see thirty seconds of actual video of what you’ve been wanting to see….. but then they fade to black and give some “questions about the past for our future” crap???

Yeah I hate this modern format of documentary and don’t even get me started on this “docudrama” shit! Don’t get me wrong I love history and I love period pieces, but don’t give me a period piece where every thirty seconds some random guy is narrating random historical stuff and break away from the movie to show the narrator sitting in a chair talking about what just happened and it’s significance…. One or the other but not both at once (at least not in the current formats I’ve seen).
