I'm going to see "Straight Outta Compton". That movie is going to be bananas. Although most of older folk (i'm talking to you @gusto) lived it through the news media.

Heath was always a stupid character in the comics. He never had a leg to stand on...

He'll be dead within a few episodes, considering he's black.
