curious what you didn't enjoy about the Knuckleball doc? I loved it. {nm} lobogotti May 06, 07:29

I'm not a baseball guy. I was happy to have enjoyed it as much as I did. While watching, I was thinking edzep - Port Monkey! May 06, 07:40

Also, it failed to deliver one thing I really wanted to see... edzep - Port Monkey! May 06, 07:44

All pitches have smooth trajectories; there is no such thing as a "breaking ball". Knuckleballs work because the direction and magnitude are forlorne May 06, 08:32

Maybe... edzep - Port Monkey! May 06, 08:56

Random & unpredictable refers only to direction and angle of trajectory. Each individual one still looks like every other "curve" ball. {nm} forlorne May 06, 10:29

As noted in the film, that unpredicatbility comes largely from lack of spin, and lack of speed, with the air itself affecting the trajectory {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! May 06, 08:59

Iron Man 3 (A-).....after credits scene is funny but doesn't reveal anything about future movies...the minus was for (spoilers) tealfan May 06, 10:58

I liked that twist since the comic supernatural fantasy version wouldn't make sense. The inconsistent Extremis villains' bother me more. {nm} Antibody May 06, 11:33
