  1. ECW also had action figures. That's all I had to contribute.
  2. I don't know if this along the lines of the topic, but I really like the "Return of the Living Dead" BTS on the first release of that film. Dan O'Bannon is very interesting to hear talk about his work. Along those lines, the BTS off the first Collector's ed of "American Werewolf in London" is also quite good.
  3. Are there any movie nerd sites that have tried to do a power ranking of every Tarantino film character ever? I'd be keen to look at such a thing, even though I like the time, effort and motivation to watch Jamie Foxx "act" in "Django Unchained" to do one myself.
  4. As opposed to the shitty WCW we get from TNA. Deezamn!
  5. Thst or have someone else force Rowan to give himself the claw. In other news, Chikara is allegedly returning in February.
  6. Counterpoint: The dick claw is the ultimate move in a kayfabeless world. It's way more believably painful then some half assed faux mma moves. You, sir. YOU. I concede.
  7. I can't imagine a dick claw working in our kayfabe-less world, because no matter how well it's sold, it's still one dude holding another dude's dick in public. That being said, they'd probably give it to Darren Young to use.
  8. What exactly is going on w/ Nigel? I remember his TNA run got cut short, but I never saw anything that suggested why. Heard some rumbling, nothing certain, about possible hep. Then I saw some stuff to suggested concussion issues, but again, nothing clear. And everything else has been "poor Nigel," "a cautionary tale," suggestions of poor in-ring decisions (those stupid face bumps into the ringposts!), but still nothing clear. If it's not sleaze, can somebody help me out?
  9. Dale's weird "Hheugh!" grunt is second only to his "Sha-SHA!" verbal tics, in my book. Okay, back to the wrestling...
  10. Where does "Diggstown" rate? Not bad ... dunno how popular it is ... unknown-ish?
  11. God, if it's Lesnar, and they both get to 'Mania and the crowd starts chanting "YOU BOTH SUCK!" that will be a great time to be alive.
  12. Most fights are over in like 30 seconds so cardio doesn't mean anything. Maybe those bar fights where people just wrestle each other to the ground. but I've seen plenty of fights that have gone over 30 seconds. Perhaps but I highly doubt cardio is the deciding factor in most fights unless you're in a controlled environment. I dunno, I was attacked by a guy who was floridly psychotic, but in such shape that a couple of whiff punches had him winded and incapable of carrying on.
  13. I'm glad that someone has noticed that as my favorite adjective these days. Not sure this warrants a "buttcheeks" use though lol My current circle of pals would like your name, number and physical address, because something about the past two days being personally & professionally horrible* have made them sick of me and they're looking for someone to blame. *Admire my restraint.
  14. I am almost out of likes, and I haven't even been awake that long. If RandomAct bemoans something as being "buttcheeks," I'm all out.
  15. And Road Warrior Animal shows up the next night on Raw to induct Miz as the next member of the Legion of Doom. All DVDVRMB members look at you in solemn disgust. "Gift of the Magi" or "Monkey's Paw" lesson LEARNED!
  16. Clones of Barry Windham? Must watch... Inside a steel Barry Windham, godDAMN I'm such a scamp!
  17. Weren't these taped before that Raw ep? Original post about the spoilers went up Dec 3 ...
  18. I had to go from "Havana Pitbulls" then "American Wolves" to wake me up to it.
  19. I just don't understand. I state a reasonable opinion of dislike for something that David Richards did in a match, an act that I found offensive. You called me a hypocrite and "full of shit" (before the edit) and tell me that I should dislike El Generico because, in your reasoning, he's just as offensive - yet in a far more longitudinal manner - as Davey's one-off behavior. I agree with you, in the spirit of what you're saying, and yet now you take a mocking tone with me. I don't believe I wish to engage you in discourse on this matter anymore, as this exchange has become most dissatisfying. My life was much more enriched before you came along this day.
  20. I'm actually curious about this matter, myself. So, all this time, I've been assuming that El Generico The Character was obviously supposed to be a Canadian (read: white) guy who happened to get wrestling training in Mexico, and so enmeshed himself in the culture that he adopted behaviorisms indicative of the indigenous people of Latin and Central America. Instead, I have been understanding that character all wrong. He's aping the worst behaviors of standard Mexican and Latino stereotypes, not as parody or lampoon, but as a crass, demeaning commentary *against* Mexicans. So, El Generico is like, say, Daniel Tosh, in that being racist in an ironic fashion could be just be justifying in a backhanded way one's own permissibility to be a racist. Wow. Mind ... blown. I defer to your wisdom; you do not get nearly enough credit on this forum, smart mother fucker you are, man,
  21. That's not anywhere close to the point I was originally making... So wait, you're telling me that what ended up making you dislike Davey wasn't his derogatory comment made to a early 00's white urban hip-hop culture character? Because that's what you wrote... Okay, okay, I'll admit it; I feel like I'm missing somthing. Are you: 1. ... trying to get me to *appreciate* Davey Richards, even though he uses a derogatory term that I happen to find offensive, in the middle of a match, where said term has no bearing, stake or context; 2. ... get me to *dislike* El Generico, based on diametrically opposed principles, i.e. because Davey calls Jack a "whigger" and I didn't appreciate it, I'm supposed to dislike a Canadian who plays a goofy luchadore gimmick; or, 3. ... trying to say I'm an idiot for having any opinion on the matter, an opinion that appears to be somewhat obtuse for you? Please, if you'll help me figure this out, I promise I'll respond accordingly.
