Not only that, but in reference to Noam Dar being a fan of them. Noam Dar is 23 years old. He was born in 1993. Rollerball Rocco retired in 1991. How many wrestlers who retired before you were born do you idolise?

That's kind of the exception in the big dollar entertainment business though, isn't it? Hollywood superstars get screwed out of their millions by Bernie Madoff or something and they just sign on to make a few bad movies for the paycheck (except Kev Bacon, who makes terrible mobile phone adverts for years instead). Big Rock stars find that the revenue split with their manager or accountant was the 80/20 they thought, but they were getting the 20% all along, and they release a new record and go back on the road.

With Ricky Steamboat, they noticed he looked a bit Japanese and gave him a Bruce Lee gimmick. With Ultimo Dragon, same thing. Most Dragons since are because the wrestler is a fan/ protege of Steamboat or Ultimo.

12 months from the test failure, so he's back in July 2017. And he got the PED from a 'sexual performance' pill? He doesn't seem the type of guy to be insecure about his shagging abilities. Unless he's done loads of steroids for years and they've made his nuts shrivel up and dry.

No PS3 games require DLC for Platinums. But the DLCs are really good, and it's not really the full story without them. The prices of them vary over time on the PSN store though, so if you time it right, you can get them next to nothing (except the Cerberus pack from ME2, which is exclusive to people who bought the game first hand).

So, looking at the final bit where they show the bracket, I guess Thumbs is Kendrick and The Ced is Cedric Alexander. But in the SDLive bracket, there is (along with Miller and Oklahomie who we know). Welling, Hasty and Pop. Any guesses as to they are? Also, the UUDD Superbowl won't be the same this year without the Sizzle halftime show.

FTFY

Remember when people were criticising Robin Van Persie for not performing well in the big games, and then he 'silenced his critics' by scoring a hat trick over a bottom three team? Wasn't a big game. Critics not silenced. If you're the poster boy for why the MLS sucks, scoring a hat trick in a big MLS game doesn't really prove anything. Not when you've been a total dongle every time you've visited at the top table.

http://www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=32329 Sayama was in the six man, with Mascaras & Sasuke vs Dynamite, Dos Caras Sr. & Kuniaki Kobayashi. The ten man was Togo, Teioh, Shiryu, TAKA & Funaki vs Hamada, Naniwa, Delfin, Yakushiji & TMIV.

Shouldn't that be in the spoiler thread? We now know that all of those characters will be somewhere that is being played by Spain. And there's not many Spanish locations in the show, unless they go back to Slaver's Bay for some reason.

The other thing about Solomon Kane is... I hate movies with crucifixion (could have sworn that was spelt crucifiction, but there's a red line under it spelled that way) scenes where they put the nails into the palms of the hands instead of into the forearms where they're supposed to. As soon as you asked those nails to bear the weight, they'd tear through and the guy would fall off. Although in this movie, and (I'm not spoiler tagging it because the movie isn't good enough to deserve spoiler tagging) they used headless nails in the crucifixion just so they could have a Falling off the Cross scene. And if you're crucifying a bloke, you wouldn't use headless nails, would you? If you were looking to crucify a guy, and the only nails you could find were all shaft and no head, why go to the trouble of even nailing him up there at all? Just use chains or ropes or something. Or just hit him with your hammers for a few hours, that'd be the same kind of lingering painful death you were prescribing, without the inescapable fact that he'd escape as soon as you turned your back. And I've now spent more time thinking about that scene that the guy who wrote it did... and if you read the whole post, so have you!

No... but there were loads of awesome games from that era. Now I know most Americans haven't heard of things like Manic Miner/ Jet Set Willy and the Llamasoft stuff that was big over here, but Space Invaders, Galaxians, Pac Man and Asteroid were international. And also awesome.

Two weeks in the UK. It came out on the Monday (not the Friday) because it was half term and all the kids were off school.

I stole this from someone: I did actually love that even after everything, he insists on being addressed as Doctor, and behaving as a Doctor. Even though he's no longer practicing medicine in any way, he still considers himself to be bound by the Hippocratic Oath.

Yeah, I heard on the Andromenerds podcast that DA:2 had a much shorter development time than it should have had (hence the initial bugginess). But I decided to jump into it first anyway. So far it's way better than Origins was - it's like the jump between ME1 gameplay and ME2 gameplay, only without actually changing genre or anything. Also, I thought this was the catch-all thread, not upcoming. Sorry.

Tony Chimel,bloody hell. Odd that all of the 'guys who don't play videogames' guys want to play Frogger. Was it bigger than Space Invaders over there or something?

Finally finished Dragon Age Origins. Should I go straight on to DA:2, or should I do Walking Dead season one or SR: Gat Out of Hell as a palate cleanser first?

What I've watched recently: Laid in America (2016) is a movie starring a couple of youtubers that I had to get because my son likes them. It's like Superbad, if it didn't have the parts with McLovin and the two cops. So basically, it's a bad version of Superbad, only with more social media cachet. Not worth bothering with unless you're obsessed with youtubers. Solomon Kane (2009) is basically the same movie as Season of the Witch (2011) and Black Death (2010), and none of them are much cop. Black Death is probably the best of the three, because it had the lowest budget so there's no shitty CGI demons all over the place. And it has the best cast. Really, if you're looking to get someone from the cast of Rome to play your unstoppable medieval warrior, you'd go for Stevenson or McKidd (or Hinds) well before you'd go for Purefoy. I mean, he got himself in shape for it and everything, but he has a politician's face. Point Break (1991) is one of those movies where you overlook it's flaws. The opening scene is an awful lot like that footage of Keanu's weapons training for John Wick 2 that @J.T. posted in the upcoming movies thread. And Keanu... in a way, he's perfect for the part, because he looks so right for it. But in a way, he's terrible, because he can't (or at least, couldn't at the time) act hidden emotion. The best actors can show you that their character is feeling regret, or sadness, or desire, or anger or frustration or anything, while putting a brave face on it. Keanu just shows the brave face, so you can't tell if he's feeling anything or not. And the plot hinges on his character making emotional decisions rather than rational ones... so in a way, his performance detracts from the logic of the storyline. A more subtly emotive actor in the same role might have been a better fit. I'd totally forgotten Antony Chilli Pepper was in this movie. And Swayze's psycho torturer friend was played by Beecher from Oz, who can apparently play anything convincingly. Whatever happened to Bojesse Christopher? And why did Lori Petty's career stall so badly?

Are Maize maze's not a thing in America? They're a thing over here. http://www.maize-maze.com/

See, what you've done there is,you've used the word "She" and the word"Logic" in the same sentence.

Waltman beat up Chyna when he was dating her.

Depends on whether the promotion bothers to ask for it back or not (usually they've gone out of business, so they don't). Often whoever physically possesses the strap when it's abandoned keeps it, or sells it to another wrestler/ promotion. None of the three belts that comprise the AJPW Triple Crown originated in AJPW, did they? The old WWF Light Heavyweight title ended up being defended in Japan, becoming incorporated into the J Crown, and defended on WCW Nitro. I think everyone who was holding a belt when WCW died got hired by WWE afterwards, so they could get those for the eventual HoF building. But Pillman's Light Heavy belt from before the Cruiserweight era is probably... being hidden by someone. Of course, the other issue is, which belt is the belt? When Warrior was changing the colour of the strap on his IC title every few weeks, how many of those belts are officially the Intercontinental Championship, and how many are copies? Because the champ had the belt on telly... but there's only one championship, so how can there be multiple belts representing the Championship?

This one is mainly for @RIPPA
