  1. I don't know what the PPV number would be, could possibly be a great number if they booked a solid feud against the right guy, but I can tell you for a fact that if they promoted a Flair title match here in my area, it would be a complete and total sell out. Especially if the feud was going in the direction of a Flair title win.

    Grindhouse

    If any of you can make it happen, try to see it with as many people as possible as well. I don't mean take a bunch of people, although that wouldn't hurt either. Just try to watch it with a big crowd if you can. I wish that I could've found a screening of it around here like I did with Hot Fuzz. Watching Grindhouse with 400+ rabid fans would be insane.

    Grindhouse

    Yeah, I thought all of that was pretty obvious. When I got online tonight and saw so many people bitching about it, I really didn't understand what all the fuss was about. It also helps to have some sort of knowledge of grindhouse films. Most of them were technically very bad, they didn't strive for being anything more than just hardcore fun. The same thing applies here, so in my opinion you need to be a tad bit more forgiving of certain things, even if they don't totally make sense once you start to think about it. It's all about camp, and cheese, and hardcore fun. If you ask me, Grindhouse really summed all of that up, and most critics understand that, thus all of the glowing positive reviews.

    Rob Zombie to direct next Halloween movie

    The more I see about the movie, including the trailer, the more it just seems to be a total remake just with the latest Hollywood touches. Why in the world even remake this in the first place? I'll check it out, it's still a Halloween flick, but that doesn't mean that I understand the point. The trailer is totally lacking as well, it just doesn't feel right to me. They should've just had Rob Zombie make a new Halloween movie instead of a remake of the original.

    Grindhouse

    I just remembered another moment that got a huge pop from the crowd I saw this with:

    Grindhouse

    I watched Grindhouse earlier tonight, and I had a blast. The crowd I was with wasn't as rowdy as I had hoped, but they were ok by the time it was said and done. When "The End" showed up on the screen at the end of Death Proof the crowed all bust open and actually started to clap. There were plenty of laughs from everyone from beginning to end though, so it was received very well by the crowd, even if not as rowdy as I had hoped for. I liked everything, both of the movies and the trailers. It was just a flat out awesome time for me. I can't believe some of the stuff that some people are actually complaining about, but eh, whatever. I highly recommend this, but I don't think I need to say that to most of you guys who are interested in it in the first place.

    The Office, Season 3

    Yep, a great episode all around! "So the big fella pulls out a sock full of nickels, and then Schrute grabs a can of hairspray and a lighter ..."
  8. That's exactly how I feel right now also. That could change by the time his contract ends, but for now I agree. If RVD sticks around, I could see them stretching out The New Breed vs. The Originals feud and play up a big injury angle for RVD. All the while I could see them also stretching out the CM Punk angle, and he only decides to finally join up with The Originals after RVD gets taken out at the end of his contract. RVD returns, and we could have a very hot feud waiting for him after his few months off.

    Bob Holly really has problems. It wasn't too long ago that he almost had to have his arm amputated, and even worse he was on the verge of just flat out dying. I hope the guy can get fixed up once and for all. It's pretty scummy that WWE led him to believe he'd have a role at WM and ended up just dicking him around. He only stuck around working instead of taking time off because he thought they were going to give him a role on the show.

    That .gif reminds me of something. Now don't get me wrong, the move through the table was awesome and just perfect, but my favorite part of it all was Elijah's selling of the move himself. That was some really, really good shit.
  11. Go check out some of the Cabana promos on YouTube, they're awesome.

    First Person Cameraman~

    Because it would've been totally impossible for them to just have the people talking to Vince as he was out of the shot off camera, right? I really do understand how that was impossible in every single sense of the word. Really, truly, I mother fucking do. In such a case you'd likely've complained that it doesn't make sense for a cameraman to not move around the corner to get the first shots of a bald Vince; which is (supposed to be, at least) a big deal - some amazingly hilarious thing. No, I wouldn't. And you know why? Because that would actually make sense to do on a wrestling program. It would make sense because they could simply have Vince demand that the camera man not show him on camera until he gets to the ring, or just have that be implied since it wouldn't take a genius to understand that. If some of you don't understand why a first person shot doesn't work in wrestling, then I really don't know what to say. I'm not picky at all, anyone here who knows me knows that. This is just crossing that line of "ok, I can deal with this stupid bit" and "ok, no, that's just fucking retarded" for me.

    Firefox 2 sucks

    Just stick with FireFox 1.5 and get the SessionSaver extension. It's always worked perfectly for me.

    Would people like more clutter on the show to waste time in that one hour (less than that after commercials, or would you like at least one or two well built up feuds? Right now the show is all about the champ, Lashley, Snitsky being pushed to eventually face Lashley, a very short segment with the women, and the rest is all about CM Punk and the feud with The New Breed vs. The Originals.

    ECW needs to give me more of that please. And yes, the finish still looked sick.

    Wow, this match here at the end. That was a sick head-first bump Sabu just took through the f'n table. EDIT: Ok, the replay made it look not as bad, but still.

    Snitsky's past? I bet he shot a baby in the back.

    I'll never understand Stevie's career in WWE. He's had his moments of exposure, but more often than not he's almost never used. All the while though, WWE seems to love the guy, and they use tapes of his matches as examples of how to work and sell in the ring. It just seems weird to me. Does he have another job behind the scenes?

    Ouch, that was a rough bump Stevie just took. Never seen someone get spiked with that I don't think. If I have it's been a long time.

    Well, all good points. I'd stretch out the CM Punk deal for weeks also. Stevie!!!

    Very nice, sounds like a plan to me. That said, we might never seen any of them together on WWE TV just because of the fact that they have history. That wasn't a totally horrible Lashley promo just now, but meh, still not great or imposing at all.

    oAo ECW on Sci-Fi -- 4/3/2007

    Yeah, there's no need to turn him right now. That would be a huge, huge mistake right now. They're on the verge of having the next great over face if they play their cards right. What's the history of CM and Colt? If they brought Colt to ECW, what could they do with that?
