  1. And almost all of the good Olive Films releases are on backorder.
  2. Gee, I wonder what Cornette will talk about in next week's Drive-Thru?
  3. Did Logan Wilson seriously have a life-size cardboard stand-up of himself in his living room?
  4. Regardless of if any of this is true, am I the only one who thinks that as soon as Dream got called up, Vince would take one look at him and make him a jobber geek? [Triple H pulls up photos of Velveteen Dream on Vince's computer.] Triple H: Next week, one of my very special projects, Velveteen Dream will be making his main roster debut. Vince: Motown doo wop singer. Triple H: What!!???!! Vince: Yeah, like a black Honky Tonk Man. Tell him to start slicking his hair back, and he can come out wearing a 1950's tuxedo, and he can sing doo wop to the ring, like The Platters or the Four Tops. Triple H: Vince, I don't think you understand the amount of time and effort- Vince:. Yeah! And we can have him feud with R-Truth in a 'rap vs. doo wop' feud! We'll make millions!
  5. Somebody needs to tell Mike D that he needs to lay off the tanning beds. He looks like an emaciated Robert Evans as he promotes the new Beastie Boys documentary.
  6. Well, the guidelines may be extended, but I doubt you'll find many people still following them. I'm working retail right now and lots and lots of people I meet every day are flippant or simply don't give a fuck about the shelter in place guidelines, and a lot of them just want it to end already so they can go back to normal. And these aren't Confederate flag waving, MAGA hat wearing rednecks. These are people of all skin colors and all financial backgrounds.
  7. On the one hand, Vince is a horrible human being and if there is an afterlife, I hope that Vince spends all of eternity in Hell chained to a rock while the ghost of Owen Hart flays him with a barbed wire whip. But at the same time, the sleazy, amoral side of me has to admire Vince for being such a genius asshole.
  8. The six man tag with the Rougeaus against the Hart Foundation and Jim Duggan from the '89 Rumble.
  9. MVD Entertainment is doing a "Midnight Movie" sale. Looks like lots of Grade-Z crap like Santa Claus: Serial Rapist, Shark Exorcist, ....and Kevin Smith's Yoga Hosers. https://mvdshop.com/collections/midnight-movie-society-spring-2020-sale
  10. I'm getting tired of governors constantly whining about a lack of testing. It should be painfully obvious at this point that the President isn't going to increase testing. Instead of constantly complaining, the governors should SOLVE THEIR OWN GODDAMNED PROBLEMS AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO INCREASE TESTING IN YOUR STATE YOUR FUCKING SELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Twilight Time is doing a major sale, half-off on most titles. From reading the blu-ray.com message boards, this is apparently an unofficial liquidation sale, as the company has been struggling since their original owner died over a year ago, and the guy currently running the company says they have no new releases planned going forward.
  12. So what's the story behind Chris Hero wearing trash bags for pants? I wasn't really following the indy scene back then and in my hazy memories, I always thought that was Larry Sweeney who wore the trash bags due to his bipolar disorder.
  13. I can see why they haven't had Kamille talk before today: her voice has this weird quiver to it, and you can tell she's trying to keep her southern twang under control. She definitely needs to keep working on her promo skills for longterm success.
  14. So.... is American Splendor not considered a "comic book movie," or did all of you just not like it?
  15. Two questions related to the death of Joe Pedicino: I remember Entertainment Tonight doing a story on the 1991 NATPE Convention, and the GWF was there with Bill Eadie calling himself "Axis The Demolisher." Did Eadie ever actually work for GWF or did Vince's lawyers shut that down before they started taping matches? Also, I remember in 1993 WCW had a backstage interviewer who was either autistic or had Down's Syndrome on a couple PPVs. Anyone remember his name and whatever happened to him?
  16. Venom 2 pushed back to July 2021. https://deadline.com/2020/04/venom-2-new-release-date-june-2021-1202913952/
  17. In the film Talk Radio, the guy who kills Eric Bogosian at the end is played by Michael "Rockets Redglare" Morra, a New York 'performance artist' and drug addict who also worked as a roadie for The Sex Pistols and admitted to supplying Sid Viscious with drugs the night Nancy Spungen died. He also claimed to have murdered Nancy, though most of his friends dismissed this as him trying to shock people.
  18. The episode of Mannix that Cliff Booth is shown watching in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood... features a young Yaphet Kotto as a jazz player on the run from a redneck sheriff...and in a subversion, the end of the episode reveals that the redneck sheriff was actually the good guy.
  19. With news of Becton getting flagged for a drug test at the combine, I have to admit that this new drug policy where they just fine your ass is brilliant on Goodell's part. Guys like Josh Gordon, who have literally no self control and are completely addicted, are going to end up owing the NFL money and will basically be playing for free because they'll have such severe fines. I wonder if Vegas will set odds on which player will be the first to file for bankruptcy because they owe so many fines.
  20. Lethal Weapon- In this reboot of the failed Damon Wayans vehicle, the producers will be instructed to stick closely to the source material. rather than make the TV series a loose adaptation where Murtaugh is a Felix Unger expy and Riggs is a Texas good ole boy with a giant mustache. Characters will include: Det. Sergeant Roger Murtaugh: a veteran black detective assigned to the LAPD'S Major Crimes, Robbery/Homicide division. A stable family man and veteran of the first Iraq War. An old school cop, he favors the Smith and Wesson 4566. Det. Sergeant Martin Riggs: A former Marine sniper who performed "black ops" assignments for the CIA's Special Activities Group during second Iraq/Afghanistan. Suffers from extreme PTSD, which was severely exacerbated following the death of his wife, Victoria Lynn, two years earlier. Now a suicidal wreck, he has been transferred to Robbery/Homicide after a botched drug raid left three suspects dead. He carries the state of the art Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 as his sidearm. Capt. Ed Murphy: leader of the Robbery/Homicide division. He always has his men's backs, regardless of how much property damage they cause. Amanda Hunsacker: a 20-year old drug addict and porn actress, her suicide in the pilot episode triggers the first season's main story arc. Gen. Peter McAllister: the big bad of season one, the leader of Shadow Company, a CIA-backed mercenary company that is now one of the largest heroin smuggling operations on the West Coast. "Mr. Joshua:" McAllister's right hand man, a cold, ruthless assassin who develops a personal grudge against Riggs. Michael Hunsacker: Amanda's father and old Army buddy of Murtaugh's he uses his position as a bank president to help Shadow Company launder their drug money. Dr. Stephanie Woods: LAPD psychiatrist, her efforts to treat Riggs lead to constant embarrassment for her. Trish Murtaugh: Roger's wife; the author of a hugely successful series of BDSM e-novels, her financial success allows her to buy a giant house in the suburbs for her family. Rianne Murtaugh: Roger's college age daughter. She sets her sights on seducing Riggs, which, because of the age lift and Riggs being clouded by grief, she succeeds in doing. Lt. Lorna Cole: Head of Internal Affairs, she makes it her holy mission to bring down Riggs and Murtaugh. Season two will introduce Morgan Freeman as the murderous South African ambassador, while season three sees Riggs and Murtaugh trying to stop a renegade LAPD detective from flooding the streets with armor piercing "cop killer" bullets, and season four will deal with Uncle Benny and the Triads.
  21. Like most people, I wasn't even aware Freeform existed. EDIT: Ah, it's the newest name for The Family Channel, my bad. But still, this reboot barely got any coverage beyond the initial announcement and according to the Hollywood Reporter, it was barely registering 250,000 viewers per episode.
