Tiger King

Why does the guy who Scarface is based on, seem like the most sensible person in this doc?

This has everything, and I mean everything. Dangerous animals, murder, weird YouTube communities, cult leaders, drug dealers, glorious country music, gay marriage, reality TV, political campaigning, and on and on. The saying "truth is stranger than fiction" was basically invented for this. I genuinely can't recommend this enough.

Needs to be put on the fast track to being deemed culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant by the Library of Congress.

“Lmao Travis you beautiful idiot.”

You're telling me all I need to do to get a harem, is to have a couple tigers? WTF am I doing with my wasted life?

The documentarians really struck gold on this one. "Yeah, let's make a doc about that quirky tiger guy that John Oliver made fun of. Wait holy shit, he's got two husbands who are both straight, he's obsessed with a hypocritical cat lady who may have murdered her husband, and his mentor is a full-blown cult leader?!" The only major issue is that they try to introduce meth use as a plot twist... come on guys; you see one frame, you know meth is involved. Doc Antle should be in prison.

Absolutely livid that Joe Exotic's song about Carole Baskin murdering her husband isn't on Spotify.

Scored so high because U MUST see: Not saying film making not good, just my V strong recco based purely on outrageous, engrossing content: Psychos, drama & weirdos across the board + beautiful animals (however happy they may, or may not, be). Elements may disturb: Sociopathy, mental illness, murder, animal cruelty, culty manipulators (Vegas & Florida guys). Well made+ Doc, I think, on subject of a fascinating, disturbing, scummy group of misfits. Sorry, but laughed outloud too

It's as American a story as there can be. Lost children with no consciousness, living in redemption fantasies and power trips that end in selfish, criminal tragedies of exploitation and greed.

It's suitable that this has become THE entertainment during quarantine, because it makes your perception of mankind drop so low that you never want to leave your house again. Although I was not previously aware of the big cat community, it is predictable that those who are drawn to owning dangerous animals are often egomaniacal nut jobs. Religion, politics, ... any power will draw in crazy losers that feel like a king when they're Robin to any Batman.
