UFC 89 only had six. There have been plenty of shows with six decisions since they've went to a 12 fight card format.

They may as well let Barao headline a show in Brazil. He hasn't fought there in four years, and it would be good for the market.

Denzel has saved too many shitty movies to count.
I saw people talk about how vanilla Chris Pine is in another thread (btw I have no real problem with him), but Unstoppable is a good example of why you need Denzel around. Rosario Dawson, Kevin Corrigan, TJ Miller, and Ethan Suplee were solid in supporting roles, but Pine next to Denzel is a charisma vacuum.

I dunno about 200 minute thing with Boardwalk Empire. Maybe it's because I just binge watched but there are points in every season (ESPECIALLY season 2) where you can't go 20 minutes without a significant death. I think that was probably one main problem after season 1. They just start killing off character-after-character. It's actually refreshing to see characters actually survive past two episodes.
Ah, okay, I gave up somewhere in the first season when it seemed like nothing was happening and based by comment on the first half of that season and whenever I happened to tune in at various points in other seasons.
Once Gyp Rosseti shows up at the start of season 3, Boardwalk Empire essentially turns into a Frank Miller graphic novel. Only much smarter and without the women-hating.

It was a horribly cliched bad action movie with a tired, predictable plot that just fucking died whenever the camera wasn't on Denzel.
You didn't have to bring Man on Fire into this.

Safe House was terrible? Fuck off!
Agreed
If we're going to go Denzel trying his best to stop actors from imploding a movie recently, you got to go with Book of Eli and the Pelham remake. Kunis and Travolta were single-handedly dragging those movies down. I think Mila Kunis is a pretty lady, but Meg Griffin doesn't belong in a post-apocalyptic movie. She was just...dreadful.

lol do we go change the predictions points for last year to?
Nope. The Mendez/Barthelemy result in Minnesota from this year was overturned as well. It'll stay as it.

Nothing is bad about Platoon. Nothing.
EAZY BARNS! EASY MAN DON'T DEW IT!

Does Adama have a chance?
Not unless Golovkin vaporizes in the middle of round one.

Jessica Eye's win over Sarah Kaufman at UFC 166 was overturned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. No reason given yet.

As much as love Platoon, Anthony Quinn's son (who played Rhah in the movie) is just so bad and over-the-top. He also said Barnes in a weird way everytime (BURNZ AIN'T MEANT TO DIE! THE ONLY THANG CAN KILL BURNESAH IZ BURNES!). For some reason, it works because of how crazy and evil the Sgt. Barnes character is.

Tombstone had Val Kilmer. Tombstone wins.
The Huckleberry line is cool and all, but he said it 29 times.
I didn't think Tarantino was bad in Pulp Fiction, actually. But his attempt an Australian accent in Django was awful.
I was going to bring that up since I did it in the other Movie Comment thread when the film came out, but I figured people would say he was being bad on purpose.

I saw that we have the inverse of this topic, and it immediately made me think of...
Bill Paxton, Aliens. Holy fuck. Is it even acting? Goddamn. Such a great movie, such a dreadful performance. Almost ruins it. Almost.
Whatcha'll got?
Repeat this entire post but replace the word Aliens with Tombstone, and it would still be 100% true.
I love me some Tombstone, but 80% of that movie is terrible acting.
The whole rain scene in Tombstone makes my skin crawl. That alone puts Wyatt Earp over Tombstone.

From Michael Chiesa:
Pena was never "attacked" by some guy. She was training with a 135er that she trains with on a regular basis. He wasn't talking shit to her for wearing a TUF shirt, and if he was, it was light-hearted gym humor. They were rolling and he went for a move that he's hit on her a thousand times before and it just happened. Nobody is to blame, it was a training accident. Just like Dominick Cruz. Everyone knows how hard she is to train with cause she's so damn tough. She only has one female partner that can somewhat challenge her. Even on the show, she was training with guys on her team and, correct me if I'm wrong, they made a point to say how tough she is. She's Cyborg-esque, I guess you could say, minus the PEDs.
What kind of move could you hit on someone where you destroy their entire leg? Was this motherfucker doing a convoluted indie pro wrestling finisher?

The fuck?
One of Chalky's guys got lynched, Margaret's husband got killed, a prostitute got her faced slashed up, and a Klansman got his finger sliced cleaned off by Chalky. Plus, Jimmy Darmody shot up some people. That was in the first four episodes. Plus, Paz de la Huerta's ENTIRE vagina was featured prominently in the first three episodes. That itself is SOMETHING. Probably deserved an EP credit (along with Patricia Arquette's chest in season 4).

Katie Holmes in Batman Begins may very well have been the least convincing assistant DA in movie history.
Yet still somehow better than Maggie Gyllenhaal.

I was so glad when she got blown up.

The WWE Network is really going to be interesting when it launches. It could arguably end up being some of the best radio they ever do.
I swear I'm not concern trolling here, but I wonder if Dave will take a hit from the WWE network. Like if you are a big fan and you have $10/month you can justify blowing on a wrestling site but $20 is a stretch...and you are going to choose between the Observer and the WWE network...it seems he might lose that fight a bunch of times over.
Um, they're paying more than $10 bucks now. If anything, the number of subscribers would go up because they don't have to pay full price for shitty PPVs.-

Mickey Rooney - BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S
Wait till someone starts a Most Offensive Acting in Great Movie thread.

The Place Beyond the Pines was really good as I expected, just not in the ways I expected. It might be the last year, big time sleeper crime film. There were points at the start where I was going to give up on it but if you stay with it... damn.
It was in my top five for 2013. Slow start but picked up something fierce towards the middle.

Kim Couture got MULTIPLE fights on television. This shouldn't even be a discussion.

I've grown so impressed with Matthew McConaughey in recent years I've actually learned to spell his name. Back when he was in those terrible comedies with Kate Hudson he was simply Matthew McConaheyyyyyy to me.
His role in Reign of Fire did lead to a great rifftrax line ("Why are whispering?").
There should be a rule. If you do a movie or television show even remotely close to southern gothic, you have to cast Matthew McConaughey in at least a major supporting role. He can play a serious guy like in True Detective, but also have the demeanor of a middle age man from Alabama who has to go pick up his underaged girlfriend from school so she can cash her Krystal's check at a Piggly Wiggly.
