"Dumb Money" - A Shockingly Hilarious Investment

Image
  Rating: ★★★★☆ (3.5/5) If you ever thought investing in a video game store during a financial frenzy was pure lunacy, you clearly haven't seen "Dumb Money." This film is like that one guy who decides to run through a lightning storm with his pants down – utterly ridiculous, oddly exhilarating, and you can't help but watch in awe. "Dumb Money" is the kind of movie that reminds us why cinema exists in the first place: to tell crazy, unpredictable, and outrageously true stories. Director Craig Gillespie and the brilliant writing duo, Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo, take the audience on a rollercoaster ride through the wild world of Wall Street's underbelly, with their pants on their heads (figuratively speaking, of course). At its core, "Dumb Money" is a modern David vs. Goliath tale for the meme generation. It's a story that unfolds when a bunch of ordinary folks decides to flip off the Wall Street elite and their big-time hedge fund...

2023 Mid-Season Heisman Rankings

Image
1. Caleb Williams (USC): Despite a close call against Arizona, Caleb Williams is still the golden boy of the USC Trojans. He's been the heart and soul of a team with a defense that's looser than a backpack on a rollercoaster. If he can avoid any more "almost lost" moments, he might just become the golden Heisman boy too. 2. Michael Penix (Washington): Michael Penix, the man with a name that sounds like it belongs on a private detective novel, has been chilling on the sidelines. But when he's on the field, he slings the pigskin like a seasoned barbecue chef flipping burgers. Watch out, Oregon; Penix is coming for you, and he's got that Heisman scent in his nostrils. 3. Jayden Daniels (LSU): Jayden Daniels is like a magician, making defenses disappear with his arm and his legs. Unfortunately, the LSU Tigers have seen their fair share of regular-season losses lately. But hey, Daniels might just pull a rabbit out of the hat and win the Heisman. 4. Drake Maye (Nort...
