  1. I just think it's a moot point, for the same reasons I said way back before the Punk/Ryback HIAC title match. There was no way in fuck Vince was going to put the belt on Ryback because Ryback couldn't work at the level Vince wants/needs his main event guys to hit. It was never going to happen.
  2. There isn't. American Hustle has acting noms in Actor - Comedy or Musical, Actress - Comedy of Musical (Adams) and Supporting Actress (Lawrence) The supporting categories aren't split into Drama and Comedy or Musical the way the lead ones are.
  3. Wolf of Wall Street looks like a dramedy to me, based on the tv spots and such. They probably submitted it as a comedy because they felt the field was easier. Of course, Disney inexplicably submitted Saving Mr. Banks as a drama, not a comedy/musical, and got no BP nom...
  4. And then some. JSA, various JLA members, Lois, Jimmy, Perry White, Doomsday, Zod, Bizarro... But it did give us Erica Durance dressed as Wonder Woman once, so it's not all bad. It just really should have been ended around the end of season 5, and then relaunched as Metropolis. And then dropped the no tights rule.
  5. The fact that I had had this discussion in my life before Big Bang Theory existed makes me scared that maybe I'm even a bigger geek than I realized.
  6. The Rangers used the Rule 5 draft to pluck a currently not playing prospect from the Rockies for 12 grand. His name: Russell Wilson.
  7. What they actually mean is that if Indy wasn't there, either the nazis never would have found the Ark, or ot would have killed them just like it did.
  8. But they already have Atlantis, could they tell it apart from Stargate?
  9. The same can be said, btw, for Inglorious Basterds.
  10. No, I meant two sequels. I have no clue what you are talking about, and I say good day to you, sir!
  11. As a side note, there was a kid, maybe 10 or 11 years old, just in front of me at WrestleMania, and god the dirty look he gave me for cheering when Henry won was hilarious.
  12. Ignoring the fact that I jumped out of my seat and marked out when it happened, the Ryback loss to Mark Henry at Mania was just fucking absurd. He got pinned, clean, at Wrestlemania, the day before starting a program with the WWE champion.
  13. POS/WDELH/MDS/RMX Full album stream on the youtubes.
  14. Raiders is, to me, right on that same level. The two sequels not so much (although I do like them.)
  15. That is a fair point: Raiders of the Lost Ark is a more or less perfect film.
  16. No argument. I own nearly all of those movies (just fucking waiting for The Abyss to get a fucking blu-ray release alfuckingready. And, well, I've never gotten around to buying Piranha 2) and I'm a big fan of his visual style. I didn't love Avatar, but I liked it. Ditto Titanic. But Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, T2, and True Lies... That's one hell of a run.
  17. Shannahan won 2 super bowls in Denver, and that probably still carries some weight, but he did it with John Elway and Terrell Davis, and his success without the two of them (Elway retired right after the second Super Bowl and Davis was hurt, iirc, 4 games into the next season and was never truly healthy again) has been limited, at best. The Texans are an interesting choice, given that their just fired coach, Gary Kubiak, was Shannahan's OC in Denver, and Kyle Shannahan used to coach on his staff in Houston, working with Schaub during his good years. If they were to bring Mike Shannahan in, they would have significantly less changes in their basic offensive system than you generally get with a new head coach, but, really, they might want some pretty major changes there, given how this season has gone. He might be better off just calling it a career, collecting the money Snyder will still owe him, and getting one of those cushy studio jobs, and waiting around to see how his HOF case plays out down the road.
  18. Yup. Cameron is at #2 with, what, 8 films? Piranha 2, Terminator, Aliens, Abyss, T2, True Lies, Titanic, Avatar... And, really, almost all of it is just those last 2.
  19. Joe Gibbs might be the best NFL coach ever, btw. Winning three Super Bowls without ever having anything that resembled a great QB...
  20. I don't think "needlessly" applies to the Red Wedding. But that's just me.
  21. For me personally, the Washington one, because I was young and innocent and that was more or less where I learned what being a Lions fan means. (Well, that, and the next year when Dallas won the Super Bowl and the Lions were terrible...) The home loss to Philly when Mitchell, coming off a legit MVP-caliber season, threw 978 interceptions before getting yanked for Dan Majowski who threw 312 more hurt a lot too.
