  1. Just because a movie turns a profit doesn't mean it's good. I'll go back to being a disgruntled film grad who seems to exclusively like commercial failures now.
  2. Man, that is a sad indictment of the world we live in now, people seem to have a very narrow view of what movies are or what they can be. Cannonball Run II, while I have not seen it in ages, was awesome. The casting alone was like some drunk guys with a ton of money were just sitting around saying "you know who we should get? Sinatra, that hot girl from Dukes of Hazzard and a monkey".
  3. Still not sure if I love or hate the idea of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. The trailer doesn't inspire a huge amount of confidence in me since I am not a big fan of CGI heavy 3D action movies (just not my thing most of the time) but if done right it could be a very fun, goofy action movie.
  4. Yeah, pretty sure it was Ghost in the Machine. Haven't seen that for ages. The skyscraper one has me drawing a blank though. Never heard of that one but I should look into it.
  5. You should be sorry for having opinions that differ from mine, or Hammer's. Hey, you like what you like. A lot of people like Denzel, personally he just never resonated with me. Plus my opinions on movies are pretty different from most, studying film gives you a different perspective on some things, which is both good and bad. Oh and I think I remember kind of liking Virtuosity actually. I miss how the 90s was all about the evils of virtual reality.
  6. Enough to encourage George Lucas to keep doing terrible terrible things.
  7. No, I just find Denzel annoyingly smug and overrated and think he has starred in too much self-important oscar bait. Ryan Reynolds starred in one movie I thought was a perfectly acceptable low brow college comedy and then banged Scarlet Johansson. Ryan wins.
  8. Teddy Long needs to remind people he isn't a peanut head. Or disappear forever. One or the other. That is all.
  9. Yeah, going from jobber to midcard was really smooth and made sense, Ryder was SUPER over during that period and got better reactions than just about anyone. But yeah, seems to have been brought down a tad recently.
  10. What the hell was that all about? I can see why they put his debut off for so long now, it was so he could learn all those flashy, complicated dance moves to complement his top notch wrestling.
  11. I've never seen HBK in person, but I've been up close to D Bry and TV does not do him justice. Dude was WAY more built when I saw him than you would think from watching him on TV. Neither has Mark Henry, I stand corrected on where his nickname comes from but winning a second rate strongman contest a decade ago against not particularly elite competition doesn't demonstrate being the strongest man in the world. Also, to be fair, I think D Bry has demonstrated himself to be the best vegan in the world if not the best straight up wrestler this side of Guerrero and Benoit's deaths. Yeah I'm being a fanboy but heck, if they can come up with these nicknames and backstories and ways of putting over mediocre workers the least they can do is acknowledge Daniel Bryan being awesome, which is a fact. I was being a little tongue in cheek calling him a "failed" weightlifter, but the fact remains he was never an elite top level strength athlete. USA didn't do well at the 1996 games in weightlifting, 14th with an injury isn't winning Gold in wrestling with a broken neck so Mark Henry can compare his achievements to Kurt Angle's, hang his turkey sized head in shame like the failure he is and sob into a buffet.
  12. Nobody trains their whole life to be number 14. To be fair, I do like Mark Henry and his latest run but psssssh, if WWE can get away with billing 1996's 14th best weight lifter as the world's strongest man then there is no reason for them to bill anyone else as anything less than super elite at what they do.
  13. Jericho's jacket. Also nobody should have to play underdog to Mark Henry. For a dude who is a failed weightlifter from like 15 years ago to still be billed as the strongest man in the world is a joke in and of itself. Why not bill Daniel Bryan as the fastest man in the world instead of an underdog? Makes about as much sense.
  14. Oh man, where did you hear that Kelly Kelly is the new Missy Hyatt?
  15. Random thing that is annoying me lately. Challengers are meant to come out first, champs second. WWE seems to be doing the babyfaces second thing whether they are champs or not ... but not even being that consistent with it. WTF??
  16. It is now that you gave them the idea. I really want a CM Punk anti-twitter tirade, not his babyface stuff ... his vicious heel ranting.
  17. They do, WWE has a boner for twitter like you would not believe. As someone who doesn't use twitter, I find it tedious too. Also I've come to the conclusion that I really dislike The Rock these days. Nothing he does is of the slightest interest to me.
  18. Yeah the Crowbar thing bothered me too with their comment about who would be scared to see him coming down the street or whatever. Come on, Crowbar had a hell of a look, good shape, crazy eyes, I wouldn't mess with him but I'd punch Kofi Kingston or Justin Gabriel in the face without a second thought.
  19. Random rant. Sorry to interupt the Eddie tributes, as he always will be the freaking man but this just got on my nerves. Not sure if anyone has seen or commented on this or even cares but I stumbled across some content on the WWE website while looking for something completely different, it was about forgettable WCW workers. Seriously, screw whoever compiled that. There is no way in hell Disco Inferno or 3 Count are somehow more forgettable than 90% of the current WWE roster. WWE has guys on TV now who I have seen within the last two weeks and cannot remember jack about but I can still remember stuff Disco and 3 Count did more than a decade ago. Just because someone isn't a main eventer doesn't mean they suck you freakin' bums. WWE should stop trying to be snarky, that's the fans job you blubbering a-holes and it's annoying when they do it. WrestleCrap style dissing is A. pretty damn outdated and B. much better when it mocks the people in charge, not the performers themselves. Okay .... I think that's out of my system now.
  20. I'm assuming 33% more cliches and stereotypes.
  21. I'm breaking away from the Dolph love I am afraid ... My five would be 1. CM Punk 2. Daniel Bryan 3. Alberto Del Rio 4. Beth Phoenix 5. Zach Ryder
