That's the actual title? Oh well. I've heard the audio book version of Skipping Christmas, although I don't really see Tim Allen as Luther. He needs to be cantankerous and crabby. So while he takes plenty of abuse he's trying desperately to keep his dignity in it all. However, Tim's version seems to be just going with it. Plus there's clearly stuff in the movie added that wasn't in the book. Bah. Anyway, check out the book or audio book. It's really hilarious and probably will be far superior to the movie, which I expect will be just a load of stupid sight gags. The really funny moments were of course well set up with Luthor's own insights. As a movie...I don't think it will work. Spider-Man 2--great. Better than that last movie and develops the Harry/Spider-Man conflict well. Now how does Harry justify his quest for revenge if he now knows that his dad was the Goblin? We know he will, but it's kind of a shock to the system I'd imagine. Although clearly he's losing it already... Maybe I missed something, but what makes the tentacles not only have minds of their own, but evil minds? Why does merely possessing them turn Ock into a madman capable of doing anything to achieve his dreams? I can buy that Ock, after his entire life's work has been ruined, denies that it was *his* fault and wants to try to do it again, right this time. However, the tentacles were seemingly supposed to be the impetus for it, like they controlled him. That was kind of confusing for me. As for the Venom fans, *allegedly* Raimi has no interest in Venom or Carnage. Carnage I can see him not wanting to use since there's not much of a character to explore there. He's nuts and kills lots of people. That's about all there is to him. Venom I don' t know about. The comic peeps could probably tell me if there's enough of a character to carry a movie, but isn't Venom basically a *good* guy except that he hates Spidey? The 3rd movie is all set up well, though. Until the Harry/Spidey thing is wrapped up they can't really go too far beyond that.

This is exactly the way I feel, especially when Goodear keeps saying "so what...he's a developing worker." I don't want to see a "developing worker," especially when WWE gets to a point where they don't bother pushing talent to improve once they get on TV. As for Mordechai...my perfectly honest opinion is that I cannot get past his look. I think he's so freakin' ridiculous-looking that nothing else matters. Obviously his offense is limited although I guess he's supposed to be that way. However, why all white? Why a top that looks like an altered version of the Test logo top? Why the goofy white hair? Why the staff? The Undertaker character only once in a while has the cartooniness pop up. I don't see a use for it today. As for Kenzo: What's this "innovative" aspect to his character the original poster speaks of? His character is "I'm angry, and I'm Japanese." Even freakin' Cena pointed out how uninteresting that is. He's drawn heat based on the evil foreign heel thing...and I guess that's his only upside right now. The little bit of offense he can do looks like crap. His promos are a non-factor since he can't speak English. When they made Hiroko (who allegedly speaks English well) a geisha they pretty much killed the opportunity to make her his mouthpiece. What are his motivations, specific enemies he wishes to target, etc? Spike Dudley and other Cruiserweights? WHO CARES!!??! Basically, in summary Mord could be good but I hate the character, and it limits him as a worker. Plus as mentioned...he has no explanation behind his motivations, and even so what is he actually doing that goes with his character? Kenzo's just a lousy wrestler and the gimmick is the only thing keeping him going, but once that's worn off he's basically useless IMO. Agreed with Rudo, at least on that. He makes me laugh, not hate him.

Narc is my shit! Yeah, there's also a remake/sequel on the way, with something like a story mode or some such nonsense. I think that's 2005 though. The Treasures 2 compilation I have no idea about, since it shouldn't actually take long to program.

"Don't let the door hit you" and "I could care less" are two phrases I've NEVER understood. Shouldn't it be "I couldn't care less" and "I hope the door hits you...?"

*gasp* That cover alone rules. However, I'm not sure what a lot of these episodes are going by just the titles. Does anyone have a link to an episode guide with synopsi? One thing that annoyed me about the series, though--when Bats would be falling a great distance and use the Bathook to save himself. It would work and he wouldn't have his arm dislocated or ripped off. Is Soul of Silicon 2nd/3rd season? When's the release date?

ChrisM linked me with this site--good source for about any Mega Man info. http://www.mmhp.net. Oh, I think the numerical ratings for the games are waaay off, but the review for X6 is pretty spot on. It even reminded me of things I hated about the game that I had forgotten about, such as having to kill yourself over-and-over again sometimes if you missed something. http://www.mmhp.net/GameHints/MMX6.html#Review I think they were wrong about the graphics and animation--they looked worse here than they did in the past. "It is also possible to permanently destroy your chances of getting certain items in a split-second's moment. "However most of the stages in this game are downright ridiculously infuriating. Rather than being difficult, this game is just irritating." I simply have to play X7, if for no other reason than I don't believe it can be worse than X6. SIGMA IZ L33+ H@XX0R YO! Oh, close to beating Wily in 7, just ran out of lives. Thankfully the Ultimate Password will take me to the final leg of Wily's fortress. I almost hated this game at one time, but I've softened towards it since the Wily stages have actually been FUN even though they're kind of easy, and flying around in a Super Adapter vs. Super Adapter battle with Bass is just damn cool. I waited to transform after Bass just to kind of get a sentai show effect.

If they're unhappy in WWE, I hope they make the decision that is best for themselves...and I wish them luck in future endeavors. What? It's not like I even watch Smackdown anymore.

"Personally, I think they can and should push speed, strength, technical ability, and what not as equal attributes." Tough poopie--WWE doesn't even allow that in their video games anymore.

"QUOTE (Precious Roy @ Jun 30 2004, 08:48 PM) I will never vote for a ticket that includes Hillary Clinton, not because she's a woman, but because she's an evil bitch." Ditto.

Mr. Bill: OOOOOOH NOOOOOOO!! Oh, and Paul Heyman trying to find a point to this storyline.

Undertaker lays down for nobody!

"Thank you for the few of you who ordered the Bash...oh, Bearer got buried in concrete by the way."

....remember folks, Paul Bearer is *NOT* dead! WWE does *not* have murder in their storylines!

Barry Horowitz? Oh, wait, the guy BEFORE Barry. Yeah, the guy with the face painted all white. WOuld that be our current SD head booker? Good, Rey beat this loser.

Does anyone think this "kid" has a lot of potential and has a bright future?

Maybe they should have paired him with that guy who used to manage Hakushi in...1995 WWF, right?

Brought to you by "Anchorman." Really, what can you say about that? *laughs at this goofball with the white hair*

It's Smackdown. Who gives a damn either way? Also, it's not like I'm actually watching it.

GAAAHH *vomits* Let's just try to imagine Jackie there instead.

Torrie/Sable match finish "controversy?" WHO GIVES A **** ABOUT THIS HORSE****?!??!

Maybe so, but for us who don't really care about the CG cutscenes, they should try to really beef up the regular gameplay.

"Well, it's a game, so...not really any sex. She moans when she feeds, and makes some risque comments, but that's about all. Oh, and she dresses in a sexy-kinky S&Mish outfit." Well, that's what I mean: as in, sexual content. Games usually don't have game characters getting it on in full display...well, in America anyway. I'm always wary of games with the Majesco label on it. You have to be pretty gifted in sucking to screw up a PORT of EARTHWORM JIM!

JR's diplomatic way of saying things sucked is hilarious.

I meant as in "where are those characters in Legends," but sure thing.

Never played it... Is there anything to the first one besides pandering amounts of sex and violence? I'd heard it was rather mediocre so didn't concern myself with it.
