Name a Comfier Documentary

You can't

Did he shart?

Very good. Felt like it talked about black baseball way too much though

The Great Bambino can do whatever he wants

The Negro Leagues were filled with phenomenal players that never got a chance in the Bigs. I think it's good they covered them.

Watching on MLB Network right now. Love it.

black baseball was a critical part of american sports history, though. white bitch bois were scared of the big scary black man so they refused to test their skills against them

The 85 Bears

false

I might watch this since "When it was a game" barely touched on those leagues at all. I'm especially curious about the perception of white players who played pro ball with the blacks.

haHAha what FAT ASS

I can't really remember anything about that. The entire documentary follows the same set up of using an inning to represent a decade in baseball history. Each chapter within each inning is about either a star of that decade, a specific important game, or a story that effected the sport, like the rigged World Series.
They just treat the Negroe League players, games and stories with equal regard so they are interwoven into the same narrative of a given decade.

Comfy as fuck and free on Amazon prime

You're right.

Nah, typical Sup Forums hot take, but they didn't. Negro Leagues were legit and can't be forgotten.

It did however spend too much time on muh New York and muh east coast. Needed more midwest.

9001) Jazz

Switch out National Parks for The West and you got a winner.

This. The West is amazing. Does the Emperor of All Maladies count since he only produced it? It's also a lot shorter than his other projects.

>he doesn't like Jazz or jazz

>Emperor of All Maladies
I haven't seen it but I have been interested in the history of cancer. I've always wondered when it was that it was properly indentified as an illness.

The Egyptians have medical texts on breast cancer from thousands of years ago. They didn't conceptualize it as "cancer" but they recognized the signs and symptoms.

>9001) Jazz

That's amazing.

It's a really informative documentary but soul crushingly depressing

>no prohibition
D R O P P E D

it advertised itself as a comprehensive history of jazz and then it gives short shrift to the 50s/60s and some of the genre's biggest icons, with that same time frame being the last time jazz was relevant in mainstream American culture, arguably its second peak after the 20s

Here's THE List:

1.) Civil War
2.) The West
3.) Prohibition
4.) Baseball
5.) The War
6.)The Dust Bowl
7.)Lewis & Clark: The Journey of the Corps of Discovery
8.) The Roosevelt's: An Intimate History\
9.)The National Parks: America's Best Idea
10.) The Vietnam War

Everything Else

Nope.) Jazz

>muh miles, coltrane, the list goes on....

No you're just a shit breed of human lol that's what segregation was about, you're wholly incapable of living a first world lifestyle without restrictions. Show me an example in human history where I'm wrong

Abhorrent list user after the first two. Baseball is a solid third, The War wasn't that good, 6, 7, 8 are meme picks. Vietnam needs to be upped about three positions.

>show me an example in the hundreds of thousands of years of human history where my dichotomy (which hasn't even existed for a century yet) doesn't apply!

>Ken burns
>Anything
No fucking thanks Jeff

>9.)The National Parks: America's Best Idea
should at least be 5th on your list, if only as proof that the United States has the most beautiful landscape of any nation on Earth

The War wasn't broad enough imo, didn't really get into the political and military machinations of WW2, instead focusing on the experiences and hardships of individuals (so what? I like a little more than just emotions from a documentary), and The Dust Bowl was just plain dull

Yeah nice example

>this is me proving my superiority by typing like a retard on the internet!

National parks was one of the first examples of national overreach, it was one of America's worst ideas. Terrible emotional-laden documentary

>t. Justin

Rex, get back to foreign relations and stop jewing over the national parks and muh oil land. They were literally the best idea our country has ever had.

lmao stay mad while i fuck your wives. enjoy raising my children!

>government tries to save lands from exploitation, development into housing/businesses, oil drilling, wildlife murder
>national overreach, worst idea ever

makes sense a conservacuck would hate something with emotion in it

>t. dude that larps about his dick being big because a half dozen porno actors with his skin color have one
lol positively pathetic

I think Crumb is basically Sup Forums - the documentary

when you're right, you're right

nigga actually go to Yosemite once in your life and then read about what happened to Hetch Hetchy only 30 miles away. And put down the Ayn Rand
