I remember a prominent radio presenter (Gambaccini maybe? Or John Peel) saying the biggest musical stars over the course of the 20th Century were Al Jolson, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Elvis and The Beatles. This was in the 80s, so maybe Wacko Jacko would be added due to his popularity over the...
You can try pinhole glasses. When you wear them, your eyes are forced to focus in the correct way, and they are particularly effective in sunlight. I began using them for an hour a day after being prescribed glasses (which I hated) and after revisiting the optician a few months later, he found...
It was MMA throughout the 2000s and 2010s for me. But my interest has massively declined recently due to the dearth of stars and intriguing matchups. So football (soccer) is back at number 1, while I still enjoy combat sports, snooker and tennis.
For sure. I know the great Lawrence Taylor has said he thinks Montana's better than Brady, and I'm sure there are a huge amount of people who rate Montana the best ever quarterback (though most of them will be aged 40 and up perhaps). He was awesome in the 80s, an incredible clutch performer!

Olympic champion Tyrell Brigs was undefeated and very highly rated at the time he fought Tyson, and I remember thinking he had a chance with his silky skills to outbox Tyson. But Tyson brutalized him, as he would a few years later against the similarly talented Carl 'the Truth ' Williams.

Years later my tastes changed and I read the novel. It is absolutely tremendous.
Fedor vs Nog 1. Seeing that expressionless slightly chubby Russian guy transform into a frenzied beserker and smash the world champion in such a brutal and dominant fashion blew my mind.
I've always disliked Jones and rooted against him, but it'll be a sad day when he retires as he's genuinely brilliant and a star.
There are so few stars left now. Even ten years ago we still had so many legends and interesting characters, some particularly outstanding at a specific discipline...
For me, De Palma's Carrie is the best. It has an intriguing story, outstanding cast, great music and score, and memorable cinematography, plus one of the best jumpscares in movie history.
