  8. The term SMW baby face somehow reminds me of when I met Cactus Jack at a SMW house show. He wasn't allowed to sign autographs unless people bought something. For folks that didn't look like they wanted to part with 20 bucks for one of his old WCW shirts, he suggested picking up the autographed Tammy Sytch 8 x 10s. I may not be exactly right in remembering what he said, but it was something to the effect of, "Only 5 bucks. Great ass shot." I didn't really have a point in sharing that, except to say I like sites where such stories can be shared. So, where were we? Oh yeah, Hogan. Seriously, I think by the time I hit the post button, he'll have already been offered to buy in to 3 promotions. Not so seriously? Him and Bushwhacker Luke vs ReDragon at ROH Final Battle 2016.

  9. Octagon, the Chuck Norris movie, had ninjas in it. Octagon was named after that movie, and his mask is supposed to be a ninja face (the white part is the skin showing around the eyes) Pentagon was created as his Black Tiger. He was supposed to be an enemy ninja that studied the five angle style instead of the eight angle style Octagon mastered. You may still think the name doesn't make sense but you just aren't used to the true lunacy that would come from Antonio Pena's ideas. This is mild shit. So there were a couple Pentagons, Pentagon Black, and a thousand Mini Pentagons, but only one Pentagon Junior, who isn't related to any of them.

  11. If only IWA Kokusai was still around, Grandpa could form a trios team with the Geezer & the Scalper and then feud with Goro Tsurumi. Failing that a Ganko Pro special might work too, they've run some tribute style shows with the likes of Goro Tsurumi and I believe Ryuma Go before his passing.

  13. Much Ado About Nothing is not only the very best movie Joss Whedon has ever made (by a HUGE margin), it's also for my money the best nontraditional Shakespeare adaptation ever made, with Kurosawa's Ran being the only other one that even comes close. It is a completely fucking brilliant work of cinema, perfect in almost every way ("almost" being that, like every modern version of Much Ado, it's got little idea of how to make the entire Claudio/Hero subplot not come off as the most disgustingly misogynistic thing ever, which is Shakespeare's fault in the first place). It's easily one of my favorite films of all time, period. Aw HELL no. X-Men 3 was garbage. Garbage script arc, garbage dialogue, garbage character derailment, garbage performances from most of the actors (I've never seen Patrick Stewart or Ian McKellen putting so little effort into any other film), and totally garbage fight scenes. Its combination of arbitrary retcons and shock-for-shock's-sake deaths for several main characters were actively insulting to the entire franchise; there's a good reason why the entire last scene of Days of Future Past was entirely devoted to the theme of "don't worry, THAT fucking movie never happened". In comparison, Age of Ultron was just mediocre and repetitive and not-as-good-as-the-last-one, with a few genuinely really entertaining sequences which I mentioned above (and I'd argue X-Men 3 had precisely zero really entertaining sequences, aside from the throwaway joke when they capture Multiple Man (but even THAT was illogical when you think about it; how'd Magneto convince him to willingly go back to prison?).

  24. Sorry Jingus, most of your complaints ignore the facts. OK I will try to do them all: -So, spilled blood stays bright red and fluidly liquid for multiple days in a row, huh? Especially in "hundred degree" heat? Do you mean Matt's wound? I don't think it was multiple days. -Vicious, ill-tempered trained attack dogs just instantly calm down and befriend some total stranger within seconds if he gives them a treat? They aren't attack dogs. The dog Punisher took in was an abused dog in a dog fighting ring. And maybe they are trained to be afraid of and submissive to humans. Not sure why this is such a big complaint. Maybe Daredevil's presence isn't scary or offensive to the dog especially when he gave it food. Also some dogs are very motivated by food as well. -How the hell did Matt's Magic Concussion work? His hearing veers wackily back and forth between "Superman with a hearing aid" and total fuckin' deafness? Uh, guys, that's not a symptom of post concussive brain damage. Keep in mind that Daredevil has enhanced senses that he got from exposure to chemicals. Not sure why it should work exactly like a post-concussion symptom. -I hope they don't try to claim that Castle shot Murdock in the mask specifically intending just to wound him. That's not how armor works in real life. No armored clothing is guaranteed to stop any particular bullet, and nobody's aim with a short-barreled pistol gives you enough pinpoint accuracy to put the bullet exactly between the eyes (instead of, more likely, in one of the eyes) from that distance. And even if all of the above aren't true, how would Castle know that the mask's armor was just thick enough to stop a bullet from killing Daredevil, but not thick enough to let him no-sell the gunshot and keep fighting? Meh, it's a fictional TV show. It was only a suggestion. And it was a suggestion by Melvin Potter. Maybe in the world of the MCU, Frank Castle can be that damn good where he aimed for what he thought was Daredevil's armored mask to be his "warning shot." Or maybe he didn't care either way. -The cops cleared the entire Hospital, but somehow never bothered to glance at the rooftop next door? And how the hell did Foggy get Matt down from there and all the way home, dead weight and in full devil costume the entire time? It might not have been the roof next door. The fight could've taken them some buildings away. -I literally groaned out loud when the pawn shop guy suddenly, apropos of nothing, tried to sell KIDDIE PORN to the Punisher. "Hey, this huge threatening guy who looks and acts like a cop just came in, bought a cop radio, and took the bullets out of my gun... I'd better try to offer him the most widely-loathed product which completely infuriates 99.99% of the population!" Fuck off with that contrived horseshit, this show is better than that. Did you not see the Swastika tattoo on his neck? The man is clearly a butter knife, not exactly the sharpest one in the drawer. Once Punisher walked in the shop, he was obviously a dead man. -We're going with "the evil careerist bitch in heels who sanctimoniously pretends to be a crusader for law and order while actually trampling over everyone in order to further her own career" cliche? Really? That was annoying enough when Dexter and Sons of Anarchy did it years ago, but LaGuerta and Stahl were at least portrayed with a lot more complexity and a little sympathy. DA Reyes is pretty cold blooded, but her character arc isn't over yet. You have to watch more to understand. There is more complexity to her later on. -And since when does the district attorney sit in on a SWAT team raid and give them direct orders on tactics during a firefight? Not sure if this is unrealistic are not. Are DA's not allowed to play roles in any type of police task forces or stings? -And why would someone who's portrayed as being such an image-obsessed careerist apparently not give a shit if her raid ends up killing Daredevil... who, at this point, is massively popular with the general public? There's a specific reason for this which I explained above. -How is she not breaking EVERY law by lying to the informant about what he's supposed to do and using him as live bait to entrap a mass-murderer? They try to hang a lampshade on this by having Foggy point it out, but that still doesn't change the blatant illegality of her actions. She's a corrupt DA and there's more explanation for this. -How did the Punisher even know they were going to be there? They never even tried to explain that. He had a stolen police radio with tactical bands. Daredevil found them because he found Punisher's hideout and heard the frequencies on the stolen radio. -And THEN, how did he somehow force that basically-unmanned semi to drive into the area... and then FUCKING TELEPORT to the top of some water tower on the other side of the lot, in the blink of an eye? This I don't know, but it doesn't really bother me. Because he's The Punisher, that's why. -And what the hell was Daredevil SWINGING FROM when he flew in like Spider-man and dropkicked Punisher off the water tower, when it was clearly the tallest thing in the whole place? He didn't swing in from anything. Watch the fight again. He climbs up ON THE WATER TOWER, jumps and just does a drop kick. That's it. No swinging or jumping from a higher place. -And finally, that last fight scene was pure bullshit. We've got an entire SWAT team with rifles all firing at Punisher and Daredevil and hitting nothing but thin air for what felt like five minutes straight. That was a fish-in-a-barrel situation if I've ever seen one, but somehow half-a-dozen marksmen with telescopic sights are unable to shoot two guys who are right in front of them and not even trying to dodge or take cover. Imperial fucking Stormtroopers have better aim than that. The only shot that lands is, of course, The Standard Upper-Arm Just A Flesh Wound which makes the recipient grunt in pain and is then promptly ignored forever after and doesn't seem to even slow Castle down for the rest of the fight. The cops were clearly trying to avoid shooting Daredevil and didn't want to shoot him. Plus it was raining and they were constantly moving targets. And one was able to hit Punisher. -And THEN, after being shot in his dominant arm and beat half to death and falling through a skylight (...a skylight on the ground?!) which should have shredded him to ribbons, how does Castle just pick himself up and pick Daredevil's unconscious body up and somehow carry them both to safety, while being surrounded by cops, without leaving a trail of blood and broken glass with every step? He clearly wasn't beaten half to death. This is Frank Castle. He's not a normal dude. There was some blood trail after the drop. Maybe Punisher knew the area and knew how to get out without being detected.

  25. Honestly, I'd go crazy for a heel food blogger gimmick. Just go from town to town and write horrible Yelp reviews for beloved mom and pop pizzerias on their way down the aisle while reading them out loud. "The... sauce.. was... horrendous." Don't know what that says about me or my life. and he'll spit Pho into the eyes of opponents to win matches

  26. When Hogan tells this story in five years, Andre the Giant will be the head of Gawker and Bubba the Love Sponge will be the Lindbergh baby all grown up. And he won the verdict in a battle royal vs. all 12 jury members. And maybe Kermit the Frog. 'Cause... why not.

  29. If you think $115 million is a lot, wait a few years until Hogan has some time to apply his HulkArithmetic to it. I can see the shoot interview now, "brother, the most important moment of my personal life was when I awarded $978 million for beating Gawker. We broke all the records with that one, dude."

  35. Pretty cut and dry case and the testimony of the former editor who basically said any sex tape was open for publication, including of kids above 4 years old was a killer. People understand privacy and they want privacy. Hulk went through a lot of shit, some of his own making and some that wasn't, so glad he came out and stuck it to them. That said, I love Deadspin so would hate if this causes Gawker to shutter itself.
