  1. To be honest I was slightly disappointed.  The third act is incredible but there were a lot of slow parts that sort of lulled the audience away for a bit.  I was happy that Wiig was not featured too much.  Rudd, Koechner, and Carell seem to disappear for a while in the second half of the movie.  The blind scenes were hilarious

     

     

    Also the social commentary was a little heavy handed and this is coming from someone who loves South Park more than anything.  Not saying I didn't agree with the message but they were really laying it on thick

  2. I really enjoyed the last segment.  It woke up a crowd that was lukewarm at best all night.  Cena returning so quickly is insane but it's clear they panicked.

     

     

    Stephanie is starting to enter into Joan Crawford territory.  Or Faye Dunaway portraying Joan Crawford.  She's doing a good job but it's so...uncomfortbale to watch

  3. I actually started watching SNL in 1991-1992 IIRC (either then or the very next season), but I didn't started liking it until the late, late 90s. Maybe it's because I realized Adam Sandler is only tolerable in small doses at an early age.

    91-92 is my probably my favorite season of all time. ;) Among SNL freaks 86-93 is generally considered the best years of the show.  Even beating out 75-80. Sandler was only a featured player in 91.  93/94 and especially 94/95 is where he started to hog air time

  4. according to PWI Hunter, Stephanie, and Vince aren't booked for any TV following the Hell in a Cell PPV.  Looks like the feud will be blown off at that show if they are right.

     

    Remember Meltz said that after Summerslam Steph would leave TV and it would be Vince and Hunter running things until they eventually turned on each other.  Must have changed plans.  I'm wondering if Vince is sick or something.  he has looked terrible recently

  5. The one person I have done the biggest 180 since this angle started has been Stephanie. She has been so, so great. Everything down to just cadence in which she speaks has been perfect. I enjoyed the show for the most part, but it definitely would have benefited from being cut in length a bit. "The Rhodes brothers are here!" was a damn fap-worthy line.

     

    she has improved ten fold since her initial run.  She's still not a great actress by any means but she has definitely improved

  6.  

    When someone does the Jericho thing to her again, they'll be over huge

     

     

    I was thinking the same thing.  Whoever gets to insult her first is going to get a huge pop.  It might be tough in a PG era though.  Bryan couldn't even outright call her a bitch a few weeks ago

  7.  

    AJ's promo was a certain portion of the writing crew and roster venting through her

     

     

    I was thinking that.  It's the backstage expressing their hatred for the show.

     

     

    I think this is all leading to Show and Ziggler finally interfering next week.  Hope they can still get a pop with that

  8. I just watched the 3/22/99 and they not only had Austin vs. Big Show for the first time ever (with 0 hype) on the go-home show for WrestleMania, Austin pinned Show relatively cleanly (it was a few chair shots and a stunner but the chair shots almost felt normal considering how the match was progressing). That was so much potential money flushed away in a show where the big takeaway was Austin vs. Rock and not really to do with Show.

     

    I remember reading that Vince was surprised at how poorly WCW used Big Show and how Vince just knew he'd use Show so much more effectively. He didn't.

     

    Apparently Austin requested this match and demanded that finish because he saw Show as a threat to his spot.  Even though he was the hottest thing in the business he was still paranoid

  9. I would agree that everyone came off poorly here but it's freaking reality TV so...if the WWE's goal was to make their performers as irritating as possible they really hit a homerun. 

     

    Yup as I mentioned earlier Eva Marie is out of this world hot. But she might be wasted in a PG environment

  10. from the previews looks like the storyline relationships for the new girls will be Jo Jo/Justin Gabriel and Eva Marie/Fandango.Eva Marie is almost 29.  Kind of suprised they signed someone that close to 30.  She's incredibly hot but don't know if she can get over in a PG environment
