Do yourself a favor and check out the documentary, “Tyson.”
He’s a complex and intelligent man.
I hope our next President has a public speaking problem so liberals can actually find fault with them again.
@2
Wait, so liberals find exactly 0 fault with the Obama presidency? Maybe you’ve missed out on constant complaints about a willingness to negotiate from the middle, or for Obama’s “fierce advocacy” for inaction on gay rights?
“Rarely is the question asked is our filmmakers adapting?” doesn’t make any sense.
Dear Tacomagirl,
You are so cute.
Love,
The Entire Fucking World
@3 Oh I’ve noticed them, noticed them consistently shouted down, derided, or utterly ignored by the far more numerous Obama apologists who seem happy to accept that this utter centrist is the best we can dare hope for.
@7: Obama a “centrist”? Surely you jest! You and your ilk will not be happy until life, liberty, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS has been ripped to shreds — and if you think for even one moment that our lives as sexual misfits will be BETTER under the sort of totalitarian socialist regime Obama is doing his best to create, just look at what happened to gays under both Hitler and Mao. No scholarly history exists (that I am aware of) of systematic persecution of other sexual minorities (e.g. BDSM, my own cross to bear) under the past century’s various Big Brothers, but I’d bet my next year’s income that there’s a doctoral thesis in there somewhere…
I love that Tyson was painting a (an?) unicorn on a star field when the guy comes to speak with him.
So lovely. Thank you!
@1 I think he is finally becoming self-aware, after years of people trying to help him be so. There is a little parallel to Mr. Spartacus on the Oscars the other night. Life is different for him now, he accepts it and tries to give performances appropriate to his reality.
Tyson may indeed know more about the “sweet science” of pugilism than most boxing trainers do. He had access to Bill Cayton’s immense library of old fight films & recordings, and studied them intensely. His fighting style looked wild, but it was all about maximum exploitation of an opponent’s weakness. If the boxing world hadn’t been so toxic for him, Tyson might be a master trainer & fight consultant, devising fight plans for guys like football coaches design blitzes.
Good old-fashioned family satire.
And huh, Jimmy’s lost a good amount of weight. He’s poppin’ fresh!
“Jimmy Kimmel Live” is the most underrated show on late night TV. On the same post-Oscar episode, there was also a hilarious parody of “Toddlers and Tiaras” starring Tom Hanks. Go find it on YouTube.
Thank you @6. I’m so sick of people giving him work. He’s a fucking CONVICTED RAPIST. Not to mention alleged wife beater and I’m inclined to believe he did beat Robin Given since he’s a convicted rapist.
Say what you will about Mel Gibson or Charlie Sheen but as far as I know, they’ve never raped anyone.
Did I mention he was convicted of rape?
