  1. Oh shit, one of my favorite matches! http://dai.ly/xz8hcc Hope I did that right, never posted a daily motion vid here before.
  2. Our old friend JDW once called Barry "God of Work" and god damn was he ever right. Oh, and here are the Hollywood Blondes and The Lone Wolf together: And this really isn't about Barry, but he's in it, and it's great, and the template for a few years later when a similar event that was even greater happened: This I've never seen, but lord do I hope it's a good as I'm expecting it to be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyAkc97rRAA
  3. Yeah, I really wish I could afford the Born Again one, but it's a bit too pricey for my blood.
  4. Wait, the extended cut of Sucker Punch still isn't his vision? Want. (Yeah, I actually liked Sucker Punch. A lot.) Edit: Jesus, could the interviewer been any less objective? And I'm a pretty big fan of Snyder, but Christ, dude, objectivity?
  5. Clearly they were putting together a Journey To WrestleMania doc on Warrior.
  6. Vince crying is... I don't even know.
  7. Apparently I completely missed that review.
  8. Yeah, Detroit's pick is top 8 protected, so precarious.
  9. Yeah, looked it up. Kid's name is Alex Burton, and that's literally his only credit on imdb. There are a lot of hits on google with allegations about how he got the job, but nothing that looks concrete. I also learned that Singer was at least threatened with lawsuits from some of the extras in Apt Pupil for "bullying" them into stripping naked for the shower scene, and allegedly having private screenings of the footage from said scene in his house.
  10. I don't even remember the character being in the first movie, honestly. But this is losing the point, I guess... "Casting couch" is immoral, and if the actor/actress under the legal age of consent, an obvious crime. But it's still a major jump from that to "forcibly sodomized" a kid. And... Ugh. Just...
  11. You know, Jesse was completely right about Hogan losing him composure and how it was going to hurt him at Wrestlemania. Something bugging me: In my memory, the Honkey/Macho match had a segment where the Hart Foundation and Honky worked together to beat down Savage, with Liz begging them to stop... Was that a different show? Am I totally imagining that this ever happened?
  12. Giving away the finish to a match where the odds were -3000, +900 on the opposite finish seems, frankly, impossible to me.
  13. I absolutely agree. It was bold and inventive and tried to do things. Some stuff failed (god the CGI on Hulk is terrible, and the end is confusing) but the ambition of the movie is so far above almost every other superhero movie. I never understood all the hatred it gets. The Incredible Hulk, on the other hand, is still the worst of the MCU films.
  14. As far as living stand ups go, for me, the line still forms behind Lewis Black.
  15. As a related note, for a match I didn't think much of when it happened, rewatching Brock/Taker and it's a lot better than I realized. It was just so different than I expected it to be, that I think I judged it unfairly at the time. Plus, you know, the "time froze" moment at the end when nothing in the world made sense anymore.
  16. Forever and always, this:
  17. You know, the Cole/JBL/JR booth from when Lawler was out recovering was really good. JBL is wildly uneven these days. You can tell whether or not he gives a damn about a match by his commentary though. Because when he truly cares, he's incredible. And when he doesn't... Oh boy. Rewatch Brock/Taker. JBL is absolutely perfect calling it. Heelish in that he knows Brock is going to win, but he doesn't want the streak to end. Purely respectful to the match, and makes every bit of it seem like a big deal. (He also had easily the best line of the night with the line about the end of the attitude era after The Shield ran through the NAO.)
  18. Hulk is 0-2 at the box office as a solo character. Hard to blame marvel for not committing to a third shot.
  19. He also went on an anti vaccination rant on Twitter a couple weeks ago, so fuck him.
  20. Holy fuck, Heyman's promo/press conference at the end of the fallout episode tonight. The man is a god of some sort.
  21. Maybe because Warrior was using Andre's singlet to choke him?
  22. Didn't Joe Perry threaten to do an Aerosmith tour without Steven Tyler a few years ago?
