Lovely.
Just on Sully, I was genuinely shocked to find out how much of Sully they made up. You accept movies are exaggerated for storytelling but in Sully it's ridiculous. Their answer to stretching out a 6 minute flight into a 2 hour film was to turn the NTSB (who were very supportive of Sully in real life) into the bad guy based on nothing.
