IMDB says it was released in October of last year. No information about a streamer, either. I'm a sucker for that stuff, so I hope I can remember it's somewhere in limbo. Shit, I just noticed the Power Plant Legacy Films part of the poster. So...uh....what? The Power Plant isn't exactly as bad as some of these other places who produced below par wrestlers, and they had one strong success story even if he was extremely flawed. However, I don't think there was a legacy that was left. Was Hard Work Bobby Walker a gaffer or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike Bobby Walker, he would actually hit his spots. Also, he would wind up having some match of the year candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Has Skipper really not wrestled since 2008? That’s when his Wiki stops. That’s also right before his son was killed in 2009. edit: according to Cagematch, his last three matches were against Tyler Black, Dennis Condrey and Chic Donovan, 2 in 2008 amd one in 2009. jindrak worked until 2018, i think main evented some CMLL PPVs, appeared on a telenova and married an Edecane.

Elsalvajeloco Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Elix was one of those guys who looked younger than he actually was. He was in his early 30s when started wrestling so it's totally understandable if his actually career was abbreviated. That and I think it wasn't much for him to do after Triple X broke up originally. He just became another guy in TNA. A guy like Jindrak was eventually able to find his footing after his American prospects waned. Even then, physically, he probably would have gotten another chance if things fell the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 When i saw Elix's son that died was 22 in 2009, I had to look up his age and he was born in 1967. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would The Giant count? saw the trailer for Joker 2. Didn’t think the first film needed a sequel, tried to say something about mental illness, austerity and fascism but threw it away by saying “he’s just a nut” in the third act Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It'd be great to see Shaun again, maybe with an audience this time. I don't remember it being the laff riot I imagine it'll be this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 THE BEAST (dir. Bertrand Bonello) Also, this https://www.rogerebert.com/mzs/megalopolis-coppola-cannes In yet another of the money travails in the career of Francis Coppola (remember that even Dracula was done for profit), nobody wants to buy Megalopolis. The saying goes that "what's the point of having money if you can't spend it". Why can't any of these rich fucks get behind that? I guess they would just tell me "the point of making money is to make more money" instead and take a limo back to their yacht. (Don't see how A24 wouldn't pick it up though if they have the cash, so it'll probably be their loss.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast is one I'll try to find tickets to see - only one theater in Atlanta is showing it so I'll have to go to Plaza Theater to see it. I can see Apple or Netflix spending the money to have Megalopolis on their services instead of it playing in theaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was one of those rare moments where I nearly hated the movie and thought it was the most base horseshit, but also thought Phoenix’s performance was really good. I highly doubt I’ll give the sequel the time of day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
