      Honestly, yes. Would love to hear his assessment of Gary Busey's "stinky cheese" on the HR pitch, and then the kid yeeting it back, as well as a few of his other pitches. Plus, Randy Johnson was in that movie, wasn't he?

    My brother-in-law and I made a short film. In one scene he had to throw a cup of coffee onto a car. But, his character was supposed to be a bit of a nerd. The issue was that he was actually a really good college-level catcher. It took 10 takes to get him to throw that cup as if he wasn't throwing out a runner at second. You know when you know.

    I know the comment section of RUclips is not the place for me to air out my grievances, but you hit a nerve and I will absolutely, even proudly, die on this hill- Jack CHOSE not to get on the door because he gave it a try and quickly realized that it wasn't an issue of surface area, of course the door has plenty of space. It was an issue of buoyancy. It's amazing that the door was able to stay afloat at all, considering that it was already loaded down with hardware and gilding and all of the useless ornate crap they put on it because it was a luxury liner. Even the act of climbing aboard might have allowed too much water over the top to allow the door to remain floating at all, even if it were somehow miraculously able to stay buoyant with the additional weight of a Hollywood heartthrob on it. I'm sick of this narrative that Rose didn't let Jack on the door... he was a brave king who understood the delicate balance of material density and he sacrificed himself so that his lover would live.
