  1. For what its worth I believe the point RD Reynolds was making in the Wrestlecrap was that an undead zombie gimmick SHOULDN"T have worked but did. Most people think that the difference between Undertaker and other sp00ky gimmicks like Damien Demento and Papa Shango is Mark Calloway.
  2. That team tryout sketch goes on so long I half expected piper to demand someone put on the glasses
  3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hm-M8GvgYws Jack Black Mr Crowley
  4. Wasn't planning on watching this but Jerry Bruickmeir and the Director where on Apple News in Conversation podcast and sold me on it. Glad I did. They really did a lot of cool stuff with technology (the racing scenes where partially filmed on iPhone) and access that really shows up on screen (actual racing footage is in the film as well). Your mention of the Paul Brothers is interesting as you have an interesting contrast between JP and his manager being about marketing, and Sonny saying that's stuff's just noise. Thirty years ago it was enough to be good at "the thing" nowadays its not enough to be good at "the thing" (music, acting, racing, sports, what ever) but you have to be good at social media. Be a Brand. Also to your second paragraph , seeing Brad Pitt with his blonde hair and blues eyes had me thinking "Brad Pitt plays Paul Newman as Sonny Hayes" The jogging scenes reminded me of Paul Newman walking the track in Winning. (If I'm correctly remembering a film I haven't seen in thirty years). Also some interesting sub-plots with women in a very masculine world of racing (I have no idea how many women actually work in F1) , and I saw some criticism about Sonny talking about "mansplaining car design" but I think that gets it wrong. He didn't just role off the couch he's an experienced driver with decades of experience under his belt (and he's shown winning a major race to start the film), he correctly knows his stuff. Yes see this film while its still in IMAX
  5. Yes I believe they used meters instead of feet (American's and brits) making it too big instead of inches instead of feet making it too small Also Chris Jericho did a "which way to the stage" bit in WCW one time leading to him ending up outside the venue
  6. Do they go dark and gritty or live action cartoon?
  7. There was a house show clip recently of CM Punk coming out wearing a towel and a shower cap
  8. The Stonehedge thing actually happened to Black Sabbath
  9. I believe the second one was due to them being told not to due the brutal ladder spots due to WWF getting heat for promoting violence towards children
  10. It really shouldn't be a surprise that Bret could have a solid match with Glen Jacobs, Kane had a very solid body of work. I think they had a cage match at some point that was fun
  11. Bobby Jenks of the 2000 WS winning White Sox had passed away at 44 due to stomach cancer
  12. Is that Daniel Bryan?
  13. ERNEST
  14. I recall it takes a minute for Lucha Underground to really find its footing. Also I'm totally "what a maneuver!" Vince Macmahon with the actual names of moves these days myself
