  1. The idea of Barrett basically having a Debbie Downer gimmick is awesome. Brie shows off her new engagement ring to the other divas and Barrett saunters by and proceeds to talk about the plights of African child labor miners.

  6. I'm pretty sure this belongs here. In these October threads, we've been over the big series so many times, that it's hard to come up with a new angle. But I still want to watch them and post about them...So, i'm turning to the music. There's something special about the 80s wave of pop-horror and I think a lot of it has to do with how fundamentally moody and creepy the synth./guitar heavy 80s sound was. Those screeching guitar solos in FRIGHT NIGHT are sort of the standard by which I judge modernized horror...just enough of the old gothic sound, mixed with a sleezy kind of 80s Brett Easton Ellis smarm. Reading all the stuff on Gawker about Sinead O'Connor this week, I was weirdly surprised to find myself watching the last few minutes of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4: THE DREAM MASTER and as the credits started rolling, First I was like, "YES...this is that sound!" and then I was like..."wait a second...that's not..." So I did some digging and while I know everyone remembers Dokken from Part 3...I just want to pay tribute to the bizarre sequence of musicians who show up in this fantastically "Holy Shit, it's still the 80s, but 1990 is just about to hit, isn't it?" soundtrack for Part 4..and some of the weird places this led me: To start with, the song playing over the opening credits is written and performed by the girl who plays Kristen in the movie. Her name is Tuesday Knight...Yeah...How fucking awesome is that. If you wrote a movie about a character named Tuesday Knight, people would be like "You know what, dummy? I'm not buyin' it! It's ridiculous. No one in real life has a name that cool. Change it." Well, you know what? You were wrong about that, assholes. Becuase Tuesday Knight is out there. Seriously..fantastic, and this song has all that sleezy, synthesizery, overdone drums sound that always makes me think of Patrick Bateman and/or Charlie Brewster...Fuck yeah, 80s! Before being killed by Freddie, she sang backup vocals for Quiet Riot. Yeah. Kevin Dubrow probably hit on her while trying to cover up his hair plugs. She also sang a cover of "every breathe you take" in one of the first episodes of PROFILER Boom. Just that would be enough for a human life. But she is currently keyboardist in a David Bowie tribute band. The closing credits? The aforementioned Sinead O'Connor with MC Lyte. Does anyone remember MC Lyte? Of course not. But she is here, quoting "In the Mood for Love" and sounding every bit like every other forgettable crossover rap artist of that horrible, horrible year of 1990 that was about to descend upon us with all of its Neneh Cherry-y and Gerardo-y and EMF-y hellscape. What a bizarre pairing. Next! The Vinnie Vincent Mother Fucking Invasion... Yeah. The guy who replaced Ace Frehley in the shitty unmasked version of KISS. When he was kicked out of that?...he started this. This song...is amazing. It is the kind of generic metal ballad that will somehow give you flashbacks even if you've never heard it before. So Vinnie Vincent...poor man's Ace Frehley and now poor man's Don Dokken. I'm not sure what that gesture is that he's doing in that picture. It's like he's pointing at me. But his hand is tilted the wrong direction. His hand is prepared to tell me to come toward him. So, it's like 1/3 pointing at me, 1/3 telling me to "come here" and maybe 1/3 flipping me off? You know what? I don't have time for your special gestural language Vinnie Vincent. No one understands what we are supposed to do with that, which is probably why your invasion failed. If you're not hooked already, then just try to resist this: From Billy Idol's disastrous follow-up album to Rebel Yell. It's not like it's not great...It's great. The world just kept moving and he kind of stayed the same. Now the gesture in this picture, I get. That's the Heisman trophy pose, if the Heisman trophy was won by a sassy cat. Guys, this is just the start. and I'm already out of Youtube links for one post...and I haven't even touched on the Fat Boys yet...so standby...

  7. Not quite the same thing but there was a thing that popped up that said "Simeon is looking for a special Coquette" and a green car icon popped up not far away. I was busy trying to break into Fort Zancudo at the time, so didn't do anything with it at the time, but later, running from cops, I saw the Coquette with a player in it, and he pulled into an alleyway to hide from cops.Just to be a dick, I led the cops right to him, and he drove off to the nearest LS Customs, in Paleto Bay. I followed He tried to go in but it wouldn't work because cops were after him. So I shot him, drove off and evaded the cops, went back and resprayed it, evaded a couple people trying to jack the ride on the drive across the map from Paleto Bay to the LS docks, and made $11,835 on the deal.

  9. I enjoyed the CWF IPPV even though the feed screwed up during the title match and the Rumble. The Tag title match was real good. Stuttsy sure loves his JR calls. I would have been drunk if I played a drinking game every time he said "Oh my god".

  10. I need to stop going on wrestling fan groups on Facebook. Too many people on there think Davey Richards is anything other than terrible. Being in charge of the kiddo made it impossible to hop in on that CWF iPPV on time, and I'm sure it's just about over, but I wish them and especially RA and Stuttsy the best with it. Any chance of it going on replay?

  20. "worst Raw main event of all time"? that's some superb hyperbole there. It wasn't a great match or anything, but it was perfectly serviceable. after a quick rewatch, face Booker T gets pretty much no reaction at all, no matter what he does. heel Bagwell at least gets some boos when he does heelish stuff. i think the biggest problem is that WWF had put so much time in saying WCW was inferior, then they give the main event spot to a face who had recently attacked Steve Austin and a debuting Buff Bagwell. there was no audience connection.

  22. Bad News Barrett should just be Wade Barrett walking around delivering actual bad news to people. For example, they can have R-Truth challenge someone to a match for a future date in Canada, and then Bad News Barrett can appear out of nowhere, and deliver the bad news that R-Truth isn't allowed in Canada due to his criminal record.

  24. Those Barrett videos rule. Wade Barrett: Is it true that no one knows who Johnny Curtis is? Johnny Curtis: I won NXT Season 4... Wade Barrett: No you didn't, Johnny Curtis won NXT Season 4! Johnny Curtis: I am Johnny Curtis... Wade Barrett: Huh, I guess it is true then. His new gimmick should be HHH's corporate interviewer/tv shill. Wade Barrett, investigative journalist!

  27. I'm a little late on this because I've been back for a couple weeks now but I'd like to give a big Fuck You shout out to the city of Philadelphia. I've been all over the U.S. from coast to coast and Philly is overall the shittiest place I've been to outside of Arkansas. To be fair, I haven't actually been to Detroit outside of the airport. But Philly is pathetic. I go there multiple times a year and people live in absolute filth. It doesn't have anything to do with money either. You don't have to have money to not throw trash on the ground. For real, everywhere you look is garbage. I'm driving by a bustop, dude opens a package like a DVD or CD and just chucks the plastic garbage wrapper on the ground. Two minutes later the person in front of me chucks a McDonalds bag out their window onto the street. Stop at a light and look right and left and trash everywhere.

  29. I hate how non-developed the character of Alberto Del Rio is. How about a bunch of vignettes for Alberto Del Rio, "The Most Interesting Man in ... Sports Entertainment!" "He once fought an MMA match in Japan ... while wearing a mask!" "He has two faces... literally." "He once started a fight in a bar ... the night before a title defense at Summerslam!"

  33. I am so happy to see this match, in large part due to this show being Glacier's debut and that also being the same day I got my cat Gracie. Despite being super-old now, she's still kicking.

  34. Man, I want Bob Armstrong to drag Scott into the ring by his ear and make him tell the WWE Universe the truth about the fast count. Then I want him to punch Brad Maddox in the head and put on a clip-on tie and an airbrushed baseball cap that says "General Manager" on it.

  36. Until someone mentioned Wade Barrett, I honestly had not even noticed he wasn't on TV. Is there another current wrestler who so consistently fails to meet the sum of his parts? The guys is a good promo, has good presence, and works a believable style that fits his look and shows his personality/character well. Despite all of those things, he has almost never been interesting.

  43. I haven't watched any new puro in a long ass minute, thanks. Quality schmality. Seems like yesterday I was watching best of Benoit in Japan on a 7th or 8th generation VHS and really getting into that classic match, "sort of Owen-like white blob vs. sort of Benoit-like blobby shape".
