So film. Much learn. Wow.

plumtreeblossom and I have been watching a lot of really interesting stuff lately. ( This is kind of long, so click here to read a little more about The Imitation Game, the third Hobbit movie, Big Eyes, Crossing the Line, and the first episode of Ken Burns’ Baseball. )

Regarding the Baseball series. The subsequent episodes are definitely much more detailed. The original series was nine episodes, and the other two are updates. I also really enjoyed it, but I found the last two installments significantly lacking in comparison to the original nine. I'll be curious to hear your opinions.

Cool. I can’t imagine I won’t love them.

One thing I noticed was that the earliest photographs didn’t show gloves, but by the late 1800s they were using gloves. I hope that gets explained a little more. (I wonder if there was opposition to the introduction of gloves, and/or if baseballs themselves changed when gloves were introduced.)

The Imitation Game was a brilliant film. Best film i have seen for awhile!
