I'm really excited about a few things coming out of NYCC. First and foremost is Yost's New Warriors which is the best sounding New Warriors launch since the 90s. PAD relaunching X-Factor with Quicksilver and Gambit should be a lot of fun. Avengers Undercover actually sounds great as Hopeless did a really good job with the characters and this will be a far less exploitative book. Plus lots of fleshing out of villains and lots of Zemo. Slott/Allred Silver Surfer is going to be a sick amount of fun. It LOOKS like we'll be getting Robinson/Kirk on Fantastic Four. I've been enjoying both X-Force books so a crossover should be worth reading. I don't really care about Iron Patriot/Ghost Rider/Elektra or Miracleman for that matter, but still a lot of stuff to look forward to.

Apparently the Live + 3 Days numbers for SHIELD gives an increase of something like 50% which is unheard of and puts it over the top for the night.

I Think the best thing about the streaming is that there are a lot of random old movies from the 40s/50s and not always the ones you see on TCM.

1980s AWA Viewing Deadline - UPDATED OCTOBER 13TH
Matt D replied to goodhelmet's topic in 1980S PROJECT
Your ballot is amazing. I don't even know where to begin. I want you to explain everything though, at detail, because it's amazing. -
I actually thought Rowan looked fine last night. I've seen enough of him in NXT too to realize the problem. The guy can't brawl at all and that was how he debuted on WWE TV. He's perfectly fine in long heat segments and has fairly interesting offensive that he executes well enough with perfectly acceptable timing. Put him in a brawl and he's the drizzling shits though.

I caught up to the Bo/Sami/Zeb promo. It's probably my favorite out-of-ring stuff in wrestling this year. Sami doesn't come off as a character at all. He's hugely genuine in his delivery. I really like the idea that he and Renee are the only sane people in this land of misfits. Bo's amazing too. One problem I think WWE might have is that the crowd will eventually turn anyone entertaining face. I haven't seen the Santino tag yet, but I enjoyed Emma so much more in her first few weeks when the fans were just warming to her but she was still totally oblivious to it. Enzo became super over too quickly. Some of these acts have to stat out as heels for a while to really sink in and now it's going to be weird when they move up to the main roster. I did love the Wyatt family farewell when the crowd was super into them though.

I'm with the people who are enjoying this season a lot, way more than the back half of S2. I kind of groan every time that Jessica is on the screen though. THAT said, I'm definitely ready for Brody to come back.
-
They need to merchandise the shit out of the show.
-
Then he told her that he was way more costa rican czech dominican Canadian? than she was.
-
It's not even the origin thing for Jessica Drew. It's her personality and basically everything about her. There's no overlap at all there. I could see Skye ending up as Jessica Jones/Jewel far more than I could see her ending up as Spider-Woman.
-
Never really referenced her turning back to Rita. Honestly, I'm not even sure when she DID turn back to Rita and I read mostly everything. Last time I remember seeing her was in the Sisterhood of Evil Mutants stuff with Fraction.
-
SHIELD can wipe all that stuff remotely, I'm sure.
-
Why would people think she was Jessica Drew? Drew's origin is super specific and led to unique character traits. I think she's just Skye. If anything maybe we'll find out she's a robot too to help set up the next Avengers movie or something.

I give you the DVDVR equivalent of GANG WARZ

When something derails the entire conversation, the ignore button simply isn't enough.

We could all band together and just make a pledge not to talk to Gonzalez.

I feel really good about the Performance Center to be honest. I feel really good about NXT and I feel really good about where things are going in the next few years when it comes to new talent. I think things are going to look pretty good in general in three years.

We live in strange times. I suppose people thought the same thing when they saw Captain Lou in a Cyndi Lauper video though.
-
I'm telling you. I want a month of Goldust in tv main events. That's all I want right now.

I said this over on PWO, but I could see them doing a holds-based, low impact match between Cena and ADR, have Cena win, have ADR snap and use a chair or something to work over the injury post match, have Sandow cash in, and then have Cena take a few more months. It'd pop a buyrate, set up a revenge feud for Cena for when he's really healed up, get heat on the heels, and be pretty much the best possible transition from Del Rio to Sandow possible.

I completely believe that WCW video is real. "THE WCW!" seems like the sort of thing WWF would do in spades.
-
I'm curious. How many people other than me are basically new to lucha coming into this? Do we have a headcount?
-
Natural, Thanks for posting the Voldo spider-walk. I'd read about it but I hadn't actually thought... well, it cracked me up.
-
One thing that made no sense to me was the changing of Big E's music when he got called up. Do you think that the FullSail people are working on the music for the NXT guys and then Jim Johnston takes over when they hit the main roster or something? I say this absolutely having Summer Rae's music stuck in my head right now. Edit: Non-related, but I love how Bo Dallas always sounds totally out of breath whenever he tries to talk.

Oh shit, he needs a tag partner fast. Can they put a pith helmet on Neville, and have him be a poacher? Most people can't tell the difference between an English accent and a South African accent. Best possible use of Neville imaginable.
