  1. Shane Williams Awesome Kong King Kong Bundy King Kong King Kong Bundy?
  2. I couldn't think of another Ian on short notice. This is hard, ok?
  3. RUSH. Ian Rotten. Frightmare! The RushIan Frightmare.
  4. I wish that what you just said existed and teamed with Jason and Leatherface in Japan.
  5. I like the Clara theory on a "crazy plot" level, but I think it's too messy. Of those, the least messy and the one with the least amount of cost in introducing or reintroducing things to new readers is the Master. I think I'd probably put "brand new character" up there as a huge possibility too though.
  6. The "The Doctor Is not your Boyfriend" thing was absolutely a shot at the female fanbase. That they harped on it so much hurt the episode. I actually expected it to blow up more than it did.
  7. I have a good friend, an old friend, who just started watching Who two or three years ago. Pretty much all she cares about is constantly revisiting the Rose/Doctor relationship. That's how she was introduced to the property. That's what related to her and appealed to her and I think she would have been much happier if that was the tone of the show permanently. She's liked episodes since but to a far lesser extent, and my impression is that she's a lot happier doing artwork of that specific topic for like-minded people who commission her than to watch and get invested in the current episodes. She also reads a lot of quasi-feminist interpretations of this stuff, but that's kind of beside the point. It's the former that i think of when I think of the tumblr crowd.
  8. They need the network to be a hit in the long run, but their money is so god damn steady that it's hard to find the corporate reasons to ever have a light put under their ass. Frankly, the network is perfect for them, because what it does is take out the middle man. What we learned with the round of TV negotiation is that they're always going to be seen as sub duck dynasty shite. Wrestling will be low-brow, low-sponsor, appealing to idiots TV forever. This is how it will be looked at. This is how it will be paid for. Maybe WWE thinks otherwise, maybe not, but they've set up a system where their fanbase can basically just give them their money, no matter what anyone in a suit thinks, and it's up to them to make that pay off.
  9. It wasn't. Mach GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO or whatever was a manga first. There's just some need to limit the Japanese stuff because there could be a million billion obscure things then. I'd just be amused by Brian's reaction, mainly.
  10. I've turned NoC into a no lose situation. If Brock wins like I want, I win. If Cena wins, I win.
  11. Wasn't it mainly a reaction to Brock leaving?
  12. That row of black and white pictures is great. Every time I see Steen I think that they just have to do a Hart Foundation style team with him and Sami. He could be the next Jim Heidhart.
  13. All I want out of the Dust Brothers heel turn is for Cody to run further with this whole cosmic key thing like the geek he is and to totally and absolutely ape Frank Langella's Skeletor delivery for all of his promos from now on.
  14. Look, all I care about is that someone (Lazlo, I'm looking at you, brah) gets the animated gif of Luke Harper's mustache as he was blowing it up slightly after a two count.
  15. HA HA HA HA HA Moffat just won an emmy. God the man's ego is going to get even worse. I can't even imagine.
  16. Look, when TNA goes down, I know you're going to be looking for a new team to support. I think we could work something out here on team Matt D. I could use a man as insanely and unhesitatingly loyal as you. It's rare to find in this day and age.
  17. But he was worse than his own announcing a year earlier.
  18. They've got to do something with Rollins. HHH/Rollins/Orton vs Reigns/?/? could be fun. Batista + Show? I don't know. If they want to heat the card up they probably think they should get HHH on it, no?
  19. Savage on commentary in 94 is hilarious. He tries so hard to put himself over on a weekly basis.
