  1. We should all pay attention to the wisdom of Smith Hart, the man who named his daughter Satanic Ecstasy and was using Hart House as a makeshift homeless shelter before they evicted him.
  2. Gotcha, Trocar. I thought New Japan had bribed Google to remove all death match images but someone made a screencap and got it through the blockade. EDIT: This is Honma's face after that happened, I imagine.
  3. Switch those two around for your own benefit
  4. The Yakuza is pretty awesome. Bob Mitchum doing film noir in Japan? A completely amazing soundtrack? An epic sword-and-gunfight where you could drop a pin and hear it the whole time? Yeah I liked that. Not quite The Friends of Eddie Coyle, but close enough.

    G1 Climax 25

    I'm reminded of Peter Takahashi kicking the ropes when someone went for a rope break.
  6. Thank you! I always thought he said "sucking bizims", like some phrase for sucking on titties.
  7. I've seen the animated Lord of the Rings, and I know about Fritz the Cat (though have never watched it, sadly). Now I'm watching Wizards, looked him up, and didn't realize how much of a national treasure Ralph Bakshi is. Bless the man for breaking so many boundaries in all manner of ways artistically.
  8. This is only slightly on-topic, but off of 2 Live Crew's Banned In the USA, what was the song with Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo Child" sampled on it? That was one of the first albums me and my friends listened to as a kid, off of an older brother's tape.
  9. Fuck all that, I want a Rorschach movie. Which would make Alan Moore's head explode, and would probably be horrible, but you never know...
  10. I highly doubt it is (still haven't seen all of 1984... hey El Rey, get on that!) but it's entertaining trash.
  11. Ewwwwwww. I'd rather have dick tuck Marty than incestuous Melissa. She's so nice and put upon all the time... remember us wanting Pentagon's head on a stick? I must've been pouring a shot or writing because I totally missed Aerostar turning into a fuckin' spaceship. This truly was a 'blink-and-you-miss-it' show. Vamp dressing up as Ghost was actually perfect, in that it's a good look that matches his character and the band: something faux dark that is actually really horrible.
  12. Chiller is totally not like that anymore. It's gore city and the only thing they cut is swears. They even just blur nudity instead of cutting the scene out! Class of 1999 was pretty badass. I had no idea the kid from Near Dark, Pam Grier, and Stacy Keach were in it. Or freakin' Malcolm McDowall. The Terminator-ed out finale with each cyborg revealing a different arm weapon was boss and they got wrecked in some pretty gnarly ways.
  13. You know that shit isn't gonna last though. Those kids are gonna ignore each other as soon as Monday starts and she'll be back looking scruffy and stealing from her parents' liquor cabinet. The point of the movie to me has always been these people realize their inherent similarities based on a temporary situation, but in a larger social setting it'll be back to normal... but like anyone who's shared some serious shit, they'll run off to go smoke some weed together behind the scenes. Or fuck.
  14. Well, Wyatt showed. Which they even played off of, Jon eating some deserved humble pie in their coded way I suppose. But speaking aside from that, I thought it was great. His Camera 3 segment was about as close to Carlin as we're gonna get these days, seeing everybody that's been on there was great, and the politicians alone showing up to diss him in that bit was perfect. Good luck Jon... we'll see you on a podcast. Trevor, you got some big shoes to fill.
  15. I knew there was a reason the other match reminded me of this besides a motor vehicle: poor bemasked man is Kamui. MASADA is MASADA, he is Crom-like when faced with... well, anybody.
  16. Oh lord, I can't believe they did that. That's awesome. I had no idea that was the reference when they did it.
  17. I'm watching Class of 1999 on Chiller and Joshua John Miller showed up; you might remember him as the kid vampire in Near Dark and the kid brother in River's Edge. I looked him up to find out what he's been up to all these years later and apparently he did some stage work, writing and directing and is writing the USA Network version of Telemundo's La Reina del Sur, entitled Queen of the South: http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/usa-network-gives-series-order-to-queen-of-the-south-1201492999/ It really is good to hear of a child actor that didn't end up ODing or being extremely fucked up, though apparently his semi-autobiographical The Mao Story says a little otherwise...
  18. Rusev/Reigns was a whole lotta meat smacking against each other (not in the way some of you may have treated the Divas match). Rusev sells great and Reigns has developed some really good punches. They always have a mean slap like Taker and Kane's. That leg lariat looked more like Rusev just did a reverse cannonball into Reigns and his frustration faces were perfect. WWE is getting good at putting "stars" as hosts on Raw that I've never heard of. Oh and what I saw of the Divas match was good, of course.
  19. His complaints about Hughes are pretty solid but I still love that damn movie. Read Koplinski's review of The Gift and it's pretty similar to the Fango one but he gives it the four snowflakes. I have to admit, I'm intrigued, but I can wait for DVD.
  20. He doesn't mean wrestling terms we use in real life, but your personal terms for different things in wrestling and its own lexicon. I mean I think most of us have used "mark" or "no-sell" or whatever in conversation before just because we are fucking weirdos.
  21. Him not liking The Shining or The Breakfast Club (I read the mini reviews too) were kind of the final nail in the coffin for me. Can't pick out anything off the top of my head that he loved that was horrible but me and my (admittedly snobby) friend that works at Rentertainment had a conversation once about his opinions sucking and I guess I'm reflecting that.
  22. Well since Sister Abigail was a chair...maybe Marty's sister will be an end table. No, she'll be a lamp. Duh.
  23. I didn't mind the logic behind Vamp being the Master. He wanted to bring out the utmost violence in Pentagon Jr., so he used himself as a tool to demonstrate just how insane Jr. could get, fashioning a false feud to bushwhack the audience. At least, that's how I look at it.
  24. I know the feeling; my household just dropped the HBO/Showtime/Cinemax package entirely. I don't even get to finish True Detective now. Luckily we still get El Rey and AXS TV. I put my foot down on those not being dropped and thankfully the reduced package still had 'em. Man Vampire's Kiss is fucking weird.
