  1. BBC Sport is currently streaming pool and badminton for the first time I ever remember. I haven't decided which to start following yet, think I might read a book instead. A... B-O-O-K.
  2. I can see this virus changing the way a lot of films are released permanently (more straight to streaming basically.)
  3. The UK is still in their "containment" phase, when they should already be in their "delay" phase (shutting schools, cancelling events etc.) We should have learned from Italy, whose healthcare system is now well overcapacity, that it is much more of a priority to get people to stop interacting before it is over the tipping point. There are not enough ventilators to go around for the people who will need them. The NHS already operates at 80-100% capacity, meaning if we get more than a few hundred cases, we will also not have enough ventilators left, meaning the doctors and nurses will have to choose which patients get priority treatment like it was a military hospital in wartime. And all countries will have this same situation. But our government, the same as most, is more interested in delaying the economy from crashing than people's grandparents from dying. I'm going to try to put my relatives in bubbles, but most people, including my relatives are still very much in the "it's not as bad as they say camp". And that's my mum who said that, a diabetic who spent most of 2018 in hospital with a kidney infection ?. /rant over.
  4. Ricochet didn't even get a dropkick before he got squashed. Undertaker beat AJ with a chokeslam he struggled to get on a guy who weighs less than me. The most overly-overpowered character of the last 20 years gets punked out by a 53 year old part timer in 5 minutes, just so they can build to a face vs face, spear vs spear match that no one wants to see. Bahahahaha! AEW Revolution on Saturday guys, come join the party. It's like they want AEW to succeed.
  5. Rick Moranis is returning to acting why not get him too? Or ya'know just don't remake a classic! ?
  6. Holy Shit! Jackie Chan fighting Arnold Schwarzenegger! I hope they're actually on the same set at the same time at least. None of that Arnie's stunt double fights Jackie, Jackie's stunt double fights Arnie on a totally different day thing. Rutger Hauer and Charles Dance are in it too. Jason Flemyng is always good in whatever I see him in. You can take your Tenets and such like, I know what I'll be enjoying!
  7. That Riho/Nyla match was amazing! Best women's match of the company so far, and one of the only matches I've wanted to re-watch for a long time. That's a good match to show someone who's never seen AEW before. Sammy is so good too, he delivered a 630 in street clothes and squatted with Dustin on his shoulders ass to grass on the same show. He's a long term prospect. Brilliant show. As soon as they announce a UK date, I don't care where it is in the country, I'm going, simple as that.
  8. I'm with you on that. It's a "hey look at how close Picard is with this person who you've never met before" play. Unsure of the new guy so far too, but- Enjoying it so far, I'm watching it on Amazon prime in the UK, are we all on episode 3 worldwide? I already spoiled some of it for myself by going to IMDb, so don't do that.
  9. Glad to see Sakazaki back, loved her in the fatal four way, way back whenever that was. Hope she becomes a permanent fixture.
  10. 9 Bodies confirmed as being found, not 5. His eldest daughter confirmed. In Sheriff's press conference.
  11. I just want to say I like Britt Baker. She's average enough in the ring sure, but compared to some of the Diva division we've been exposed to she's great. She has a vicious and over finisher, and I think she's going to be a really good heel. I hope she has a very Happy New Year.
  12. Can we take a moment to talk about how The Mandalorian's budget was 15 million per episode* while the new trilogy was 837 million?
  13. As time stood still in the cinema, I wondered whether it had been 4, 5 or 15 hours they had been trying to get to Exegal, and if indeed the dagger or C3PO subplot had indeed even been important or necessary. Then they opened the dagger and One Eyed WillyedĀ© their way to some place on an old death star that had some other Maguffin that could get them to Exegal. It has now been 48 hours since I last had food or water, the cinema is dark, I can't find my family, maybe they're on Exegal, I sure hope there's another skimmer so I can get across the water, oh there is, because of course there is. 0.5*/5
  14. I agree on the cartwheeling, but the boop? The boop is how her species communicates! That is why she is one of my top 3 femaliens of all time. If anyone from AEW reads this board, feel free to steal that portmanteau as I'm immensely proud of it, even though there was apparently a film of the same name in 1996.
  15. Also, the second after Jurassic Express' music hits he says "Marty". I thought oh he's going to say Jannetty, but in actuality, if you watch it again, you can see he concentrated on timing it as their music hits so that he would be interrupted before saying the surname. Obviously teasing Scurll. It was just fascinating to see that level of thought go in to a promo. You wouldn't get that intelligence in the other company.
  16. "8 million ways to die...She's one" - cue impending doom music. Is stuck in my head more so than Lucha Bros.
  17. Most people would look like shit compared to Ron Simmons. JBL was jackedĀ© back in the attitude era. So is the next AEW ppv in Cincinnati? Moxley vs Jericho would make sense as the main event?
  18. I must second the love for Nyla on commentary. Very punny. "Stupid dinosaur!" Had me rolling ?.
  19. Damnit that double frog splash double 619 should have been the finish! Just once let us have the babyface people actually like win the big one ?
  20. I wondered why the photo thread had the "hot" tag. I was not disappointed.
  21. The reason I think they go with Jericho for a while longer, is because this is the alternative to WWE, where they are going to build and then deliver on long term storylines. Not turn Kevin Owens heel then face again in like a week and hope we forget about it. (That could have been anyone's name really.)
  22. 1.) They shouldn't have asked/order Paige to do it in the first place. 2.) Asuka's green mist clearly doesn't have the power of Great Muta's, she has to manually regurgitate it from her venom glands with her hand for it to have its true strength.
  23. I've never heard in my life the kind of incredulous heat Jericho got with the "Who wears a scarf?" comment. The whole crowd looked liked they turned to him and gave him the Hogan YOU in disbelief, amazing ?
  24. Ortiz does look like the naughty ADHD kid from school, it's in the eyes ?
  25. Oh man MJF was so good in that. Snatching the kids hands out of his pockets, calling him a brat, chasing the ref ?
