    Just got back from Late Night with the Devil.  Absolute masterpiece.  Still thinking about it, can't wait to watch it again and show the rest of the family.  Totally immersive and the tension is phenomenal.  Brilliant.

    I've been looking forward to this ever since someone said it was Rosemary's Baby crossed with Network, but it actually exceeded my expectations. It feels like a spiritual successor to The Exorcist. I watch a lot of horror and consider a film making me jump or have a guttural reaction a great compliment to the filmmakers but when... SPOILERS...

    Spoiler

    When they were going through the footage frame by frame and his dead wife's ghost appeared with her hand on his shoulder

    I swear I had goosebumps run all the way from my toes to my scalp. Haven't reacted like that to a movie in over a decade. I'll see how I feel in a few days but this could be the best movie I've seen since Uncut Gems.

    Hope this is a big success love to see what Shudder(?) could make next with a bigger budget.

  2. Standing on the same desk I thought the Archer/Danielson match was motn. Did you see that running leg kick BD did at one point? He legit sprinted at him and kicked his hamstring as hard as he could. It looked... real. Which is why we're here after all. Love for Archer to get some gold as a thank you for heating up his opponents for the last five years.

  3. Could the Rock's Bloodline steal Priest's case and cash it in on a newly crowned Cody so we leave WM with the Final Boss as champ? Not that I'm putting that out into the ether or anything, I just wondered if that's a thing that could plausibly happen? I'm not an avid WWE watcher so don't know.

    Did you actually type this or do we have a framistan for 'power twink'

    I think the word you're looking for is 'twunk'. I recently learned the definition myself and they qualify.

    As for Mone, that's really on AEW, she isn't the best talker and isn't going to know how to improvise well yet being institutionalised by WWE, so why put her on commentary? Just walking out on the ramp for a staredown would've had the same effect. Was nice she's been scouting some talent though.

    I like the idea of Copeland working the Callis family next. He can get through Hobbs and Fletcher, barely survive Takeshita then lose cleanly to Ospreay furthering that storyline of Ospreay being part of the family but also 'the best' member of it also.

  5. You know how HBK was roided out of his gourd in the 90s but was still an amazing worker? Then he came back after losing his smile, was born again, had gotten clean and was significantly smaller but he was still HBK so you could still buy him against guys like Taker etc.

    Well, Adam Cole is like the reformed clean HBK, just without having done the 90s era to give him enough history to be that believable. He shouldn't be going move for move with anyone over 200lbs. In his matches, he needs to play the Jerry to the Tom a bit more.
