By the way, has anyone here watched the original film?

Nah, Eddie mixed up two guys with similar names, which is harmless. Vince got two guys mixed up simply because both were black. Which is super fucked up.

I believe the idea is that Ford, the reclusive Arnold, and staff spent years building the park and then Arnold was killed and there was a park-wide incident shortly after the park opened. As you can see from the "Delores in the underground hallway" flashback, much of the staff (if not all?) were killed. The park was eventually bailed out and restarted and I'm assuming there was complete employee turnover except for Ford. Ford then built Bernard sometime after that. So the only people who would have known Arnold are dead or have moved on.

Not a knock on anyone here in particular, but every time I see a discussion like this, my first thought is, "maybe WWE is not for you." I mean, don't go there looking for logic, meritocracy, booking beyond 50/50, satisfying storylines, etc etc etc. Complaining about poor logic and uncaring part timers slumming for a paycheck being pushed to the moon in WWE is like complaining about the sky being blue or a cat being an asshole. It is in WWE's very nature to be these things and it won't change. If you want something that's not that, you need to watch a different promotion.

LOL #52 and 61 are clearly the same failed gymnast turned stuntman.

God damn. Hogan was balding and self conscious about it LONG before he even started wrestling. Dude was probably born with a skullet.

They just think it's a pic of young Ford and Bernard. Black don't crack.

LOL it takes all kinds I guess

Miami Vice is a fucking treasure trove of "hey it's that guy!" Michael Madsen. James Remar. Terry O'Quinn. Chris Rock. Giancarlo Esposito showing up 2-3 times as different characters. You know you're hitting the deep cuts when you find yourself saying, "is that the dad from Ugiy Betty? Shit, it is!"

Yeah, so Delores being gears and clockwork instead of synthetic organs seals the "3 timelines" theory (original park where the disaster happened, William and Logan sometime later, MiB & Wyatt now, sometime after that). @Raziel403 is spot-on with the whole "we're seeing a mashup of Delores' timelines" thing. Anyone else notice, when Logan pulls out the picture of his sister/Billy's fiancee, that it's the same pic that drove Papa Abernathy mad? Please ignore the fact that guests are supposed to be stripped of all personal belongings in order to avoid things like that, of course. Speaking of Mr. Abernathy, don't forget that the plotline of the Delos rep using him to smuggle out data is still in play and was not mentioned in this episode.

Conrad's alright; look at what he has to work with. Flair's a sad old dude telling the same old stories about his glory days 30 years ago. It's depressing to listen to a broken down old man who's probably near broke, divorced multiple times, don't get me started on the issues with his kids, and all he wants to do on his show is live in the past and talk about drinking, getting laid and partying. It's an embarrassment.

I just hope he tells them to protect the business and maybe snug up their submissions a bit.

So they dropped two different storylines because, fuck it, we have an indy dream match to book. Again, I have no idea what ROH is supposed to be anymore.

I heard them mention that on commentary and it just blew my mind. "Babyface decides he just doesn't give a shit" (henceforth known as: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ) is definitely a new one as far as blowing off an angle is concerned. I wish they'd done that in the old days. "Wahoo met a hot nurse at the hospital so he really doesn't much care about Valentine breaking his leg anymore." I don't even know what ROH is supposed to be. Delirious' six-year-plus reign of uninspired direction is a pretty damn good illustration of why companies used to rotate bookers frequently.

Assisted kip-ups are almost as bad as "hold my leg" enzugiris.

Anybody watch Falling Water yet? It's like a lesser Westworld in that it looks good, has some neat ideas and slick things happening, but overall I have no clue what's going on.

Funny thing about that line is, in the comic, he tells Rick as soon as he gets into town that he's going to do that ("I am going to..."). Saying it again as he leaves ("In case you didn't notice, I just...") is the payoff. Is there some rule AMC follows about that level of vulgarity around 9pm that they loosen up on by 10:30? Or is it some deal where the network would let them say it only once, not twice? Seriously. The post-prison episodes, where each focused on a different splintered group of survivors, taught the show runners a cheap and easy tactic to stretch the show out like turkey meat. They could hold off on the final confrontation with the Saviors for three seasons like this. I think Greg Nicotero's motto is, "fuck you, we know you're going to watch."

Pay people late or not at all. Move without leaving a forwarding address in order to duck out of bills. Panda conducts itself like a deadbeat dad. When things get really bad, Dixie will step out for a pack of smokes and never return.

Well Pentagon is an undead ninja. Did you consider maybe Eddy is Pentagon?

Whoah, ROH signed Zack Sabre, too?

True, but it's the next best thing: a depressing room at what looks to be a Ramada Inn, full of like-minded losers. Let me know when they're spewing this shit somewhere where they might be photographed or run into those "others" they despise so. Until then, it's just a support group for weak little blowhards, anxious that America looks less and less like them every year, who are a tad more emboldened because a sentient Cheeto was elected instead of a woman, a black or a Jew.

That's horrifying. But yeah, let's keep talking about how this election wasn't a whitelash. I take solace in the belief that these Neo Nazi "alt right" rallies are just circle jerks and that none of these ineffectual white boys will ever really do a god damn thing. They'll talk a big game and do their Nazi cosplay but then piss their pants and lock their car doors driving through "the wrong part of town." They'll head back to their worthless middle management jobs full of piss and vinegar, only to settle right the fuck down once their female CEO, minority CFO, whatever, says boo. Remember, kids: you hate most in others that which you hate in yourself. These guys all obsess over "betas" and "cucks" because they know, deep down, that they're spineless wimps and that they've already lost. In short, these are just "Remaining Men Together" meetings and maybe nothing to worry over?

it's funny how the manufacturer has to refer to it as a "Space Soldier" helmet.
