i feel like i remember seeing some sort of auto-racker when pool was on espn2 all the time in the 90's. i can picture it in my head but am having a hard time finding any images online

I think it's the werewolves of london scene when he's taking the one handed shot. they show him set up and its really severe angle and then they change cameras and it is a much more straight in shot

maybe if he loses a little bit of weight first

i'm sure continuity errors were a nightmare with balls on the table, there's probably a lot more through out. this scene should get a pass since Amos was my favorite hustler

so wait, this dress code suggestion should be the bare minimum to go into your local room and practice or shoot by yourself on any given day? Or is this a suggestion for tournaments? Tournaments sure, but if that is what you want for the average pool room visit, I'm sure that would only...

I just checked his wiki, queens gambit came out in 83 and TCOM 84, the same year he died. I'd recommend the book, it's a quick read and it's very different from the movie. There's no vincent or carmen while Eddie takes up a similar role as Bert. Fats is in the book with an early focus on...

i thought it was pretty good. original story was by the same guy who wrote the hustler and color of money.

Queen's Gambit did very well on netflix and it's about chess, which i would imagine is a topic most lay persons would find more boring than pool

This is true, I didn't necessarily mean Cruise would be a mistake, a story about the Vincent character wouldn't be as good is what I mean. It would have to be set current day I suppose and I'm just not sure it would be that interesting. The only thing The Color of Money film and Novel have in...

A lot of talk about bringing Cruise back as Vincent in this thread but I really think it would be a mistake. I want to see a limited series that is faithful to the novel by Walter Tevis. Fats is a huge part of the novel in helping Eddie find his game again. Netflix did Queens Gambit, also by...

I would like to see a prestige level streaming series. By prestige I mean like HBO, Netflix, Hulu etc. The Color of Money novel is so much different than the film, it's a similar redemption story to the film but there is no Vincent or Carmen...there's a love interest but she has a lot more depth...

Yup, it wasn’t too long ago. I’m u/nova2726 on there.

Thanks, I do actually see 7ft olhausen tables for sale more than others. I definitely plan on sticking to the major brands vs whatever random furniture brands are out there

Ohhh lol, we talked about it on Reddit the other day then.

Same, It would be interesting to discuss some concepts/themes and then just cut him loose and see what he comes up with.
