  1. I didn't see the footage until years later, but Shawn was really pissed at the press conference following the show. He probably hadn't accepted that he was going to have to retire yet so it's possible he was just working for a rematch, but it's awkward. I popped huge for LOD 2000 and thought they were going to have a huge run based on their new gear, probably because I was ten. They were the first wrestler autographs I got too right around that time at a mall signing. My mom kept saying Sunny in her skimpy LOD gear "ruined" the 8x10 they signed.
  2. West, possibly hammered, cutting a promo on Superking Jerry Lawler.
  3. Loved his guest role on The New Zorro. And this random photo I just came across is glorious.
  4. Fuck. Batmania had gripped the country again with the 89 movie when I was very young, and the show was on constant rotation on the Family Channel. West was just as much my first Batman as Keaton was.
  5. The circa-2000 episode of 20/20 about backyard wrestling is pretty hilarious from what I recall. Now that I'm thinking of it, I wonder if any of Punk's backyard fed is on tape.
  6. It's strange, I felt like I hadn't seen her in anything for ages until The Night Of, where she was excellent and underutilized.
  7. I've never even been able to sit through the first Thor I was so bored, but I liked The Dark World quite a bit. I haven't revisited it since it was released, but I should.
  8. NSFW? Anyway...since they were going to do a Jump Street/MIB crossover at one point, Tatum and Hill Meet Frankenstein should be on the table.
  9. I'm not saying they're all winners, but people love the Fast movies (unseen by me) and I'll die on the hill of Central Intelligence being one of the best movies from last year.
  10. When I saw the thread I thought for a second he'd had the good sense to Hernandez himself.
  11. Dwayne's a great character actor. Not that he'll probably ever have to rely on that to make a living, but he's already had a lot of twists and turns in his career.
  12. As a massive fan of everything Phantom of the Opera, I'm actually hoping that gets made. At the very least it can't be as bad Argento's version, where Julian Sands is not disfigured at all and has sex with rats.
  13. Few have elbows as pretty as Savage, but he also had hip problems for years and ended up just crushing people's chests to avoid aggravating it by the end of his career.
  14. Miz is the best IC champ since it stopped meaning anything. No one can overcome what's been done to the title and really make it relevant again, but if there was someone that could on the roster it would be him.
  15. I'd be surprised if Heyman even knows who's going over until the day of the card, let alone have any booking input.
  16. The Moore movies set a wonderfully silly precedent of ending with Bond being caught having sex in inappropriate places by important diplomats/generals/royalty that I find sorely missing from the later films.
  17. I read the synopsis of A Serbian Film on Wikipedia once. Nope. I haven't read Ketchum and I've always avoided The Girl Next Door, but I watched the adaptation of The Woman a couple of years ago. It relies totally on the performances to suggest an abusive household for the first 2/3 and it's spellbinding. Once the shit hits the fan though, it's pretty disgusting and reprehensible to my recollection.
  18. Yeah, when a studio is gearing up to launch a brand new franchise, their best bet is casting a group of actors pushing 60 and having a gap of almost two years between the first and second picture.
  19. Me: This show isn't bad, but it's all normie humor and Dwayne's too four quadrant to really let loos...holy shit, Robochomo?!!!
  20. I'll never forget Kaientai coming into WWF as Club Kamikaze and announcing their name change like a week later with Yamaguchi-San screaming, "This is the 90s!" Immortal/Fortune was awful, except that at the heart of it was the Sting/Hogan storyline, which I still maintain was the best booking TNA ever did.
  21. They announced the original incarnation of the HoF two months after Andre died and he was the first and only inductee. Pillman was my first wrestler death after becoming a fan. I remember Raw opening with Vince onstage with the roster saying, "Brian Pillman..." and thinking he was about to apologize for some wild angle with Goldust/Marlene that had generated backlash. I was completely caught off guard with what followed.
  22. Sudden Death started as more of a Die Hard parody in the screenplay stage before becoming a more conventional action movie, but you can tell the people who made it are in on the joke with stuff like the fight with the mascot. It's really fun and Boothe is indispensable as always.
