EVA Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I'm gonna go to med school and get my MD, just so I can open up a combination Taco Bell/urgent care clinic called Dr. Taco Bell. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 That's just asking for an injunction. Now I want a wrestler calling himself DR TACO BELL and dressing in purple and yellow, except it would of course end up being a white dude working in CHIKARA or Hoodslam or fucking IWA-MS and that would be horribly racist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 DR TACO BELL should just dress up like the real DR TACO BELL and get his ass whooped every show in an indie forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I think Dan Ryckert gets dibs on the Dr Taco Bell gimmick. It's only fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Miguel Sano of the Minnesota Twins and Avery Bradley of the Detroit Pistons have both been accused of sexual assault. In Bradley's case he paid his accuser up to $400k to sign a confidentiality agreement. Both have denied the allegations. I have a feeling there are a lot of pro athletes getting real nervous this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contentious C Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 This stuff continues to make me wonder what might have happened to Steeler Boy if all this particular worm had started turning back then, without the need for things like Ray Rice & Weinstein to have helped push things to where they are now. Then again, it was handled by Goodell, who's never found something he couldn't fuck up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 https://www.rogerebert.com/far-flung-correspondents/why-i-stopped-watching-woody-allen-movies The last line cracked me up. I don't know if she was directly referring to Hitler or not, but that's immediately where my mind went, probably because I just read "Hitler Painted Roses" by Harlan Ellison. And of course, she's right: you don't have to watch this shit anymore. I'm reminded of the Larry Bishop character in Kill Bill Vol. 2 saying "fuckin' with your cash is the only thing you kids seem to understand". You don't pay to see it, you don't view it, maybe... just maybe... they'll learn a lesson. But probably not, unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I've literally seen only one Woody Allen movie, and that was a rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 To be fair, it's not like modern Woody Allen movies are massive cash cows. I feel like most of his films this decade have only been seen by film critics and like 25 die hard* Allen fans. *Insert John McLane joke here.

odessasteps Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 And most of them have been maybe B/B+ pictures at best. The best for me may have been Vicky Cristina Barcelona and before that .. maybe Sweet and Lowdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Execproducer Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Sweet and Lowdown was pretty good. Haven’t seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona yet but I will get around to it because Penelope Cruz. At this point, Woody Allen films are more about the cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Generally, I prefer his early career comedies (bananas, sleeper, etc) to mid career (manhattan, Annie hall) or later stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Oh I'm not saying boycott them... I'm saying normal people don't give a fuck about Woody Allen films made in the 21st century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's also the only reason Woody makes movies. Personally I got tired of seeing Woody's first drafts on screen, him being a creep was just icing.

Execproducer Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Match Point is the only Woody Allen film I have seen this century. Before that, Sweet and Lowdown and Crimes and Misdemeanors, so I am far from a die-hard. The whole Soon-Yi thing is pretty damn creepy but they have been married a long time so that is their business. The child abuse allegations are murky as hell and aren't going to stop me from watching a Penelope Cruz film. The only thing that is going to stop me from watching a Penelope Cruz film is if Tom Cruise is in it, 'acting'. Tom Cruise is 10x creepier than Woody Allen.

EVA Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 MIDNIGHT IN PARIS was made this century (2011) and was the highest grossing movie of his career. It was also pretty good! Corey Stoll as Ernest Hemingway was magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
