I feel young, old and dumb. Jordans were made before he went to the NBA?

Maybe they should go back to remakes and capeshit. This looks horrible.

The Mike Tyson show on Hulu was really well done. I recommend it.

I wonder if they'll cover all of the black on black crime back in the '90s of shooting joggers over their shoes? I guess Hollywood really is intellectually bankrupt at this point.

I don't know maybe they're ironically pointing out Nike and their slave labor, and it's horrible influence over jogger culture. Who cares I'll never watch this, pretty much like anything else nowadays.

I watched this tonight and I really liked it. Kinda like "The Big Short" for basketball shoes. Good story at least.

I will never understand while movies try and create dramatic tension out of shit like will Michael Jordan sign with Nike.... get better writers. I know Chewie and Han live through Solo so there is 0 tension in a scene with chewing dangling off a train

I did like the movie though as the how was unknown to me, but just stop hanging your hats on bs

Wait, are you saying that Nike Air Jordan's are an actual item and have been since the mid 80's? Color me confused.
