  1. I wonder what the plan for Nick Wayne is to start. I know what I’d do. At Revolution, book him in a debut hot trios match opener for the Buy-In. Team Taz(Starks, Hobbs, & Hook) Vs. Martin, Moriarty, & Nick Wayne. Or, they could put him in the ladder match.

    I guess it was similar to people such as Elivra or Pee Wee Herman or Father Guido Sarducci playing other parts. I seem to recall it was sort of a big deal when Reubens was in the Buffy movie not as Pee Wee. 

    It was to me. That’s just something you don’t get anymore in the industry with actors sticking to one character. That might’ve been the most pro wrestling for Hollywood in the 80’s, and early 90’s.

    I wouldn't mind that one bit. There are other candidates, for sure, but if they'd go with her, she could have a Taz-like reign of terror enroute to the championship and beyond.

    Have her beat Jade by cheating, and break Jade’s daughters back like Zeus broke Randy Rip’s back, then Jade goes on the long comeback trail to take back what’s hers from the Neo Soviet.

  4. If they start killing characters again like it’s Poseidon Adventure, I think I’d enjoy this more. That’s why I liked the first Jurassic World. They introduced a whole new set of characters to either keep alive, or get killed. Once they confirm these actors are coming back for a follow up, it’s like they get kill shy.

  5. Boy that AI voice for Mark Hamill was depressing, and terrible. Shit had no acting range whatsoever, but to be fair that sort of fits the quality of acting on display. Outside of that, I did not like the episode whatsoever. If the previous episode reminded me of season one of Mando, this reminded me of season two, with all its back door pilot characters I don’t give a shit about. I’m not looking forward to this grand MCU style crossover finale.

    Kross and Scarlett could round out the House of Black nicely, but I'd rather see Julia Hart get that opportunity to see what she can really do in a non-jobber setting.

    HoB don’t need “known” guys right now. They need guys still trying to make a name for themselves. Either somebody from the indies that hasn’t appeared yet, or people like Alan Angels, and 10.

  7. Is Minoru Suzuki actually still independent? I was just thinking about guys that fit a “Forbidden Door” narrative, and are technically available to sign a full-time deal to another promotion.

    You can't really do Vice City before the 80s because IRL Miami Beach was a shithole before a development boom happened.  Until the mid/late 80s, it was mostly retirement homes.  Watch Scarface -- in the sequence where Tony and the gang go to South Beach for the deal gone wrong, it's not glamorous at all, it's kind of deserted, and it's all old people just hanging out.  It's not "Vice City" until later. 

    Sort of… It’s just a dumpy city for the most part, but while it hasn’t exploded yet, drugs, and crime were a thing back then. The infamous Mariel Boat Lift happened in 1980, as well as the Miami riots. Which is when Scarface takes place. Also the real estate market hadn’t boomed yet, I’d argue Miami didn’t really change much until the late 00’s. It’s not glamorous, but if you were to do a gritty 70’s inspired film. The late 70’s, early 80’s Miami is the best place to put it.

    There is definitely enough in the book for a full series. In fact with all the plot threads available I'd be disappointed if they falsified it. Truth is stranger than fiction in this case, and more interesting. 

    Goddamn HBO. I'm gonna have to wait for this to come out on DVD or else wait until the series is over with to sign up and steal everything for my DVR. 

    I know, but I wish it were just a Miami Vice reboot set in Japan, with a electronic music soundtrack, and scenes of characters brooding to the music of the time.

    Tokyo Vice will be premiere on HBO Max on April 7. Ansel Elgort, Ken Watanabe, Rachel Keller, Rinko Kikuchi, etc. Michael Mann is EP and will direct at least the first episode. 

    Can’t wait for that. 

    I know it’s based on a book, but I wonder how much it’ll be it’s own thing, and if they are just using it for the name.
