Brian Fowler Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Vince is such a fascinating set of contradictions. The evil bastard that screwed so many people over, but also the guy that flew Percy Pringle first class to New York, comped everything at the hotel, and gave him a job interview just because Rick Rude asked him too and Percy twas struggling deeply (broke, car just repoed, etc) The guy who crushed the territories with evil underhanded moves (paying Hogan a bonus to not work out his last few dates) but also who so many people seem to have so much respect for. The movie could potentially be fascinating. Pandemonium is a terrible title though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I hope the movie covers the "dead leaves" story. That was a glimpse into a sick mind. I also hoe the extensively cover the part of Vince's life where he wore a doo rag a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Are we certain those are real luchadores? That's some sad white boy dancing right there. I kinda think one of those guys is Vin Gerard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Lord Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I'm interested to see what the source material on the Vince biopic is. Usually these things are based on a book or hell even an article or something. There's nothing to indicate the people that wrote this script and who want to make this movie did any of that. That means the WWE will have a lot of control over the source material especially if they have a huge hand in producing this. I can't imagine there will be one negative thing about Vince in this movie. It's gonna be like that John Gotti movie with John Travolta that's coming out that John Jr Gotti is making. You better believe his dad is gonna look good in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 It's possible. Duggan in interviews seems like a sweet guy but no great marks upstairs and Brain is, well, the Brain -- the best comedian in professional wrestling. I can see him having a mocking attitude to most if not all in the locker room for his own smarts alone, which was probably kept completely to himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 A quote from his Playboy interview in 2001: Quote "At around the same time there was a girl my age who was, in essence, my cousin. Later in life she actually wound up marrying that asshole Leo Lupton, my stepfather! Boy, this sounds like Tobacco Road. Anyway, I remember the two of us being so curious about each other’s bodies but not knowing what the hell to do. We would go into the woods and get naked together. It felt good. And for some reason I wanted to put crushed leaves into her. Don’t know why, but I remember that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Seriously though, that's pretty bizarre behavior. If Vince were the type of kid to also kill small animals, I would say that for sure he would have turned out to be some kind of mass murderer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you can't believe any of the weird shit that comes out of Vince's carny mouth, really this film should be structured like The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victator Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Has anyone here seen the TNT episode shortly after Vince.Sr died and Vince inducted him into the MSG hall of fame. Vince began crying and it really humanized him. I would use that as a central part of the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buy Me a Burrito Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Have any of you guys seen The Founder with Michael Keaton as Ray Krock, the guy who took McDonald's nationwide? For me that's EXACTLY how you should do a Vince biopic. Start him out as the ernest kid who's just buying his dad's business to keep it going and then slowly he puts everyone around him out of business, comes across as a shark and succeeds in the end. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 19 hours ago, caley said: Mike Enos was amazing on WCWSN around this time when he was just a singles wrestler, and busted out all kinds of crazy power moves on jobbers and just dominated them. I remember at the time i was tracking Wins/Losses on WWF/WCW TV shows and then making a Top 10 based off of those Wins-Losses (I long ago lost the records but it was fun at the time) and Enos would always win in dominating fashion so I kept moving him up my Top 10 list and had him right near the top and thought "They must have big plans for him" and was waiting for the big Mike Enos moment, then he'd get squashed by some low level NWO guy (Like Brian Adams) and I'd have to move him down off the list. This happened a few times and I got fooled every time ("This. This is the Enos' time to shine!"). Just watched this and he pulls some wild shit out. His bumps and immediate selling are really nice, but he doesn't sell long term. Everytime he makes a comeback he looks like he just got in the ring. But still the 180 powerslam off the top and the weird ass fisherman shoulderbreaker thing are fucking aces. Might go on an Enos binge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
