    better point, why would the school hire the real akinner as principal, with no degree or experience.

     

    "If a man pretending to be me could do the job, then logically the real me can do it even better" or something similar.

     

    I know a lot of people hate "Grandpa Simpson in: Kidney Trouble" (and Homer really does come off as an ass at the end after they do a fake-out "Homer redeems himself" bit) but there are some awesome lines.

     

    "Oooooh! This is everyone's fault but mine"

     

    "You've done a wonderful thing! You've greatly reduced your life expectancy to slighty increase someone elses!" (paraphrased - Marge talking to Homer).

     

    The whole Taffy Shop thing. "Well, if you look closely, you'll this is actually a Taffy Shop and not a boat", which leads to "Yar. What other ships ye work on?" / "Uhhh... that one. The taffy shop!" / "Yar. Good enough!".

    Actually I like that episode. a lot of great lines and sight gags (the world's largest toilet still gives me a chuckle). A great Homer-centric episode, where Homer does look kinda bad, but it' smostly that he's scared, not that he doesn't want to help his dad.

    The Survivor Series '98 thread got me thinking of this.....

     

    They just mentioned this on something during 24/7 this month, I wanna say Valentine's Day Massacre; Something about "Well, he's not wrestling with shadows, JR."

     

    Story? I can kind of piece it together, but was here any arm-twisting into saying it? By whom, in particular, was Bret's documentary not well-received?

    It was Valentines Massacre, during the tag title match- Owen Hart/Jef Jarrett vs Dlo/Mark Henry. Owen was in the ring and king said "That's cuz he's not wrestling with shadows"

     

    and he didn't say it to JR cuz It was Cole calling the ppv with hime (this being the time where JR got Bells Pallsy again)

     

    I'm sure the WWF was not pleased with the Bret documentary ( I can imagine Vince's reaction to how he was portrayed). SO maybe they fed King the line.

    The Tunney/Dibiase magazine angle ended like a month or so later, when Tunney explained what was going on-Dibiase was paying a fine that Tunney had levied against him for his Corporation's misdeeds. And then he went on to say that the reason he was wearing shades was that he had a case of pinkeye or something.

     

    I have the mags in my room somewhere, I'' try and find them for you.

    I loved the PCS skits. "Adrenaline Rush" musical chairs was the shit.

    lol agreed. Along with Nash singing "Amazing Grace" to piss off Lethal.

     

     

    anyhow sounds like it was a good show in NYC, wish I had gone. I wish they could run a show closer to me, but I know only WWE books The WC County Center.

    It's pretty obviously Daniels. The week on Impact they did the backstage promo with shark boy and curry, you can see it's Daniels' eyes through the mask, plus look at the hands, they have the same wrinkles (I don't know what else to call them) that Daniels has.

    According to Ken Keeler the episode is some master plan to show how small minded the internet (at the time a "small community of fans", much like Springfield is a small community) can be in regards to a slight change in someone you've known for years, and it worked. That's what I took out of his DVD commentary, anyway.

     

    Wikipedia says...

     

    This episode is about a community of people who like things just the way they are. Skinner's not really close to these people - he's a minor character - but they get upset when someone comes in and says 'this is not really the way things are' and they run the messenger out of town on the rail. And when the episode aired, lo and behold, a community of people who like things just the way they are got mad. It never seems to have occurred to anyone that this episode is about the people who hate it.

     

    The DVD commentary brings up a few good points actually. My opinion was pretty much summed up on the DVD commentary too (yes, I'm a nerd, shock horror) by either Josh Weinstein or Bill Oakley. As an actual stand alone episode of The Simpsons, it's perfectly good and the story itself is interesting. But it is a pretty 'out there' idea compared to most episodes. Most of the episodes that are a little different, you can usually tell before they come on. Shows like the Spinoff Showcase or Behind The Laughter, you know it's something different coming up. This one, it kinda sneaks up on you, just a normal episode and then suddenly 'what the hell, Skinner's an imposter, where did that come from!?' I think that's why most people who hate it do hate it. Which I guess proves Keeler's point.

     

    I mean I like the episode fine, I like the story fine, but I'm still not keen on the general idea that Skinner isn't Skinner, but I don't know why exactly.

    better point, why would the school hire the real akinner as principal, with no degree or experience.

     

     

    "lets meet our new Principal Skinner, Principal Seymour Skinner (Silence) Um, him (polite applause)"

     

    I still quote the simpsons way too much. Infact anytime I'm at a birthday party I will sing "you're the birthday boy or girl!"

     

    and I overuse "Oh no, the corn, awwww Paul Newman's gonna have my legs broke"

    Only if they give him the gimmick of a middle school dance DJ since that is what he reminds me of. I don't even see him as Samoan, I see him as a guy who plays "The Electric Slide" to try and get the kids grooving.

    That would be awesome. LICENSE TO PRINT MONEY!!!!!!! (TM RD REYNOLDS)

     

    Good for Joe, I'll always wish the best for him and follow him, because I saw him as a rookie, and am proud to see him rise to the top.

    3 days later, we indeed have sold a TON of copies. Funny how alot of people are just asking for "the new denzel movie".

     

    The best part is having to explain the difference between the regular and collector's edition to customers, when even I can't figure out the big deal :P

    Well I guess it's not really the last movie, as they are pretty much set to make the fifth installment. He's also doing a remake of Death Wish, directing a movie about the life of Edgar Allen Poe, possibly a movie about the murders of Biggie/2-Pac, and might be involved with the new Tarantino movie. I was reading a random article off of google that he's signed on for three more movies.

    I shouldn't be shocked, but it WOULD have been a fitting end.

    that had to be the worst top 24 week ever. The only one who even stands out was Ramiele.

     

    I think they should have picked a different theme, considering all the youngsters this year, they don't understand or know what the 60s music was all about. Maybe if they had got a guest mentor for the weekm it could have helped.

     

    heres hoping to a better week 2

    There was a short time during his tenure as Raw G.M. that Eric Bishoff was playing a tweener type of authority figure, and I thought it was working really well until they basically dropped it without explanation.

     

    Yeah. I liked how his stated goal was just to make the show the best as possible, and didn't really favor faces or heels. Then I guess the writers fell into their crutch "The GM has to try to screw the top babyface constantly" thing and it fell apart.

    Yea that all ended when Cena came to RAW and they felt the need to redo the Autin/Mcmahon feud with them.

     

     

    Foley was by far the most hilarious and entertaning Commish. But Mr. Mcmahon in 98 will always be the top standard.

    The song didnt bother me too much. Their 3rd theme was much better. The stable wasn't around long enough to make an impact and as said before Justin and Albert had no heat. Only highlights of this time, was the Tajiri/Pac feud (and summerslam match), the famed Albert/Kane Match (it was really good SERIOUSLY), and the Edge promo where he insulted him.

    Vince:As a matter of fact he did, he dedicated one of them to him.

    Jerry: I would suggest you'll see that in a pawn shop in Tiajuana by the morning"

    Anyone else annoyed by the new theme songs being doled out? The worst part is that it's only so they can sell a new cd. Did we really need Kennedy's song to be butchered like that? Or did Jeff Hardy really need something besides the instrumental song he has used for years and is most identifiable with him?

     

    Come on, Shawns still using "Sexy Boy" and Booker T had the Harlem Heat theme for like 13 years or so. And Flair of course has used has song since the late 70's/early 80s

     

    and how is this Burchill angle supposed to get him over? I did laugh on RAW when some fans yelled "you were a pirate" at Paul.

    I got the austin set, if only cuz it had the 2/3 falls match vs HHH on it, plus the bret Survivor series match I have never seen. But the Steamboat match on disc 1 is pretty awesome. Notable for being the match where Steamboat injured his back (trying to skin the cat back in) which caused his immediate retirement. Great technical match with Austin playing the arrogant heel well and Steamboat building the crowd into a frenzy with his comebacks. I havent watched anything else yet.
