That Tommy stuff is the kind of humor that I usually don't like (the kind of humor that only Vince finds funny), though somehow this works perfectly on this show. Tommy as the young girl almost had me in tears. Dzring the Okinawa scene while they went through the "oh, you speak Japanese" stuff, internally I was going for "please let him be called Kendo Nagasaki, please" and then they went their. So obvious yet (or maybe therefore) still great.

If it's 81 "Hart Brothers" has to include Bret, right? I thought that there were issues with the rights to Stampede stuff if Bret is involved in the footage.

I thought XIII-2 was a better game than XIII as it gives you much more freedom. Never having played XV (which I probably never will do) XII is my least-favorite FF game, the whole thing is so bland, no remarkable characters, a story that is both uninteresting and hard to follow at the same time. I am in the camp of IX being the best in the series, though I can also see people who did not like it as much. There are clear pluses (great presentation, charming characters, characters with completely different skillsets (the only PSX FF game to do so), addictive minigame (Chocobo hot-and-cold), nostalgic classic-fantasy setting, story that splits and joins in the early parts similar to VI) and minuses (no gameplay related innovations, story getting weird in the latter part of the games, no great bonus challenges like the weapons in VII, trance system is a bit random).

Does that story work out time-line wise? Amazon only has the paperback version of the book and dates that at October 2005. I doubt that the hardcover version was that long before to fall into the WCW era.

The highlight of the latest episode was Edge not knowing which Uso Naomi is married to. Stephen Amell's bit about how he began his Hollywood career as a fluffer was also great.

So far I have seen the first round matches (as part of my new-years-resolution to watch more Japanese wrestling) and it's mostly short comedy matches (including a match where at the end all four competitors wrestled bareass, I did not think I would ever see a full-moon Space Flying Tiger Drop).

The Orville is back for season 2. The first episode was a relative uneventful one, probably to reintroduce the characters after a one year hiatus.

I suppose this is a case of "if a product is free-to-use than the user itself (or rather his/her private data) is the product".

Has anyone here played either Ni No Kuni 2 and/or Dragon Quest 11? I am thinking of picking up one of the games for holiday playing and I am not sure which one to choose.

The life-sized wrestling buddies thing was great. Also amazing that they went for the "this is not the first time Edge introduded on your property" line.

Also Anderson (and to lesser degree Gallows) has great comedic timing. It's no coincidende that they were so great in the Southpaw Regional Wrestling thing. And that preview at the end with Scott Dawson talking to Bailey about fisting was certainly something.

Drake Younger saying "my key does not fit" was so stupid considering that Fish put the second lock there right in front of him (or at the very least directly on camera). The first thing you would expect the refs (or at least GM Regal, he is supposed to be watching this, right?) to go looking for a bolt cutter during the three minute period. Tables have to be my least favorite foreign objects in pro wrestling due to this whole Chekhov's Gun thing. Once a table is in or at the ring you know the match won't end until the table is broken. Gargano losing seems to be weird booking, for one it's his very first (televised) match after the turn and two the idea of this whole turn was a "decend into madness" as he kept losing as a face. The only possible reasons for him losing are either Black challenging for the title at the next TakeOver, Gargano being called up before Mania or that they did not want to have three heel wins in a row on the card.

Everytime I see that Blackadder ending, I have to think of Paths of Glory, an early Kubrick movie (starring Kirk Douglas) about a unit of French soldiers who ignored an order for such a suicide attack. WW1 might have been the most senseless war in history, and that is even considering "War, huh? What is it good for? Absolutely nothing!" A war that came to be by scheming for power, fighting for imperialism and a new thing called "nationalism", the senseless mass-killings in the western trenches, the alpine front and lots of other theaters, where basically nothing "happened" for years, countries not taking an out when they could have (e.g. Russia after the February Revolution or Austria-Hungary after the death of emperor Franz-Joseph) and a peace that laid the foundations for WW2 to some degree.

Now I am really pissed. As there was no reaction on my technical support request within a couple of days I registered at Twitter and sent a tweet to "Ask WWE Network" as this seems to be the best way to get help for technical problems with the network. My Twitter account got locked after 1 (in word one) tweet due to "suspicious activity", probably because someone else reported the same problem a couple of hours before me. Fuck Twitter, I won't give them my mobile phone number to unlock the account I don't even want to have. Let's just hope that this problem will be solved independently of me, if not, there are other ways to spend 10 bucks a month.

Does anyone here have problems with the "Continue Watching" feature? It stopped working for me on PS3 and PS4 a couple of days ago. I had problems with that in the past, though never longer than a day. It is still working via web-browser, but that does not really help much.

Maybe he wanted to be able to claim that it wasn't him under the mask if somehow this somehow blows up in his face. The picture of Shane posted here indicates that he is not part of the wellness policy either.

I am not that far into the game that the orientation of side quests has become a problem yet but I can see that this might become an issue. Dying by falling has not yet be a problem, probably because Skyrim trained me to be careful in that regards. Is there any way to grind? Killing enemies gives you barely any XP, the side quests don't give you much either (something in the 20-50 point range).

I have started playing The Witcher 3, which I had lying around for two years. Generally I really like it, but there is some stuff bothering me. Riding feels nowhere near as good as it does in Red Dead Redemption. If you don't follow roads, your horse gets stuck all the time. The AI when you try to call your horse is also not very good, usually you have to walk to it and get it halfway. The game also plays slower and heavier than for example Skyrim, though that might be a neutral point. The most annoying thing though is the tiny font. I have stopped trying to read the longer texts as this will lead to my eyes hurting. I have googled for it and apparently there are lots of people complaining about the font size since the very beginning. Funny, you would expect that to be an easy enough thing to fix (make configurable). Of course there is lot to like about the game. The world feels more real and alive than comparable games (e.g. the Dragon Age games or Skyrim), the graphics are absolutely astonishing and the side quests so far are deeper than the usual "get to A and fight monster B", many offering you choices how to close them. EDIT: Another negative I just thought of: for a PS4-generation game the camera is pretty spotty, sometimes much too close to the action.

After a slow start this season sure has been picking up steam. The highlight was obviously Chidi's drunk lecture. Though you could have summed it up in a couple of words:

For someone called "The Genius of the Sky" Io Shirai sure has problems hitting a moonsault. That's now 0 of 3, first round she hit too short hitting here opponent in with here knees in the stomach, second round she landed on the side and now she overshot. I assume she has problems with the bigger ring, but still.

Bruce Springsteen would be a more appropriate comparison of what they might want to claim:

Ten years ago I would have expected a response like the Rosie O'Donnell or the NBA thing and the response by John Oliver would have been glorious as he is the king of trolling, but in 2018 I doubt we will see any reaction to this at all.

Matthews having to readjust her top after every move to ensure her boobs not popping out was funny as hell.

Regarding that video above: does this place have no security at all? And if this does the whole lot of them should be fired. I mean you have an altercation that lasts more than two minutes without any security showing up and try to defuse the situation.

The timeline does not completely match, as IV came out on PSX in 97 while VIII came out in 99. Though probably that's a thing where one department was not aware of what the other one was doing (the PSX and GBA ports were outsourced to Tose after all).
