I like RTZ a lot. A great speaker he isn't, but he seems like a good guy.

I like the part where he talks about how dumb new players are when you give them a chance. Hopefully some up and coming player see that.

I don't know, I wouldn't call someone who basically said "Fuck friends, everything concerning myself is most important" a good guy. He's certainly no perfect flower like Notail.

RTZ is the bad boy of the DOTA scene, but I've always appreciated how real he is. I have nothing but respect for that young man, he's way more mature than most of the kids I encounter on a daily basis.

I don't think he was saying "fuck friends" for real life. Pro-dota is a business and he was referencing friendship between him and his co-worker(players and managers). And he is 100% right. You don't need to be a dick, but friendship doesn't pay the bills or get you where you need to be.

I haven't even heard of most of the nominated movies.

Only went to see Guardians of the Galaxy, Fury and Interstellar this year anyway. Quite enjoyed all of them, Fury might have been pretty average if I watched it at home but it was pretty good cinematic experience.

And yeah can't say I ever expected to see Steve Carell in the race for Oscar. Dude was barely recognizable in the trailer for Foxcatcher having seen him last in The Office and Anchorman.

I enjoyed reading RTZ's thoughts but became confused once he started referencing Grey's Anatomy everywhere.
