Man, that was sure a vicious and venomous WWE rant there, wasn't it? But a Sable at the end of her contract, with plenty of enemies, and a fiance she doesn't get to spend much time with is a little different than one recently hired, secure in her job, with a love interest working with her. Basically, she probably doesn't care right now, I think.

Either that, or they don't really think of Lemmings as an SNES game. Probably most people played that on a PC.

No, we're on a pre-PPV Raw, the hard sell show, silly...with Diva Search junk.

Usually I would agree with you, but considering we were responsible for Hogan's return (and we're still sorry about that) and that Trish is pretty much leading this, it probably won't be booed out of the damn building. We should all be rooting for Team WWE because they want to pelt Team Diva Search in the face with their balls.. err..that didn't come out right.. Trish: These skanks represent odor, and THESE *points to rack of green balls* represent the POWER CAPS.

Not really. Rush CAN be good, but even then they haven't really produced anything I'd remotely connect with a wrestling event since their UnLedded Zeppelin days.

HHH playing the part of Taker, Eugene playing the part of Ric Flair, and Regal playing the part of David Flair.

Are you KIDDING? She must feel like Talia as Bats and Ra's battle on in the desert. I love comics. Yes I do. Who, by the way, better be in Begins, even if in a minor role.

"The President said that Acclaim is going out of business" SOMEBODY forgot to renew their deal with Lucifer...

Maybe Desiree Washington, Sandra Miller, and those Mariott autograph hounds would.

...been a voice actor/actress to voice a part for an animated TV series/movie, who afterwards ended up resuming that same role for a live action TV series or movie? The question came up when a friend and I were wondering about, when Joker enters the new Batman movie series, who would play him. I haven't seen the guy lately, but Mark Hamill's name came up, who mostly does voice acting these days. Of course, hiring him would be viewed as signing a has-been by a lot of people, regardless if he could actually pull off *looking* like him. I don't think he'd be able to even look the part, but it made me wonder if something like that has happened. Obviously, with him being older and the tendency of voice actors not being viewed with the same respect as Hollywood headliners, such a situation is rare, particularly in that order. Of course, it doesn't have to actually be a major Hollywood movie, just a case of a character's voice actor in an animated show playing the same character for live-action. Neither do "guest" voice overs for stuff like The Simpsons count, which usually have actors playing themselves anyway. Oh, if the voice actor is voicing the role for a live action character, but isn't actually physically playing that person, it doesn't count. How many can we name, folks?

Funny thing from 411... I'm still laughing at the part where she says WWE don't hire men on looks. Most of the rest sounds very disingenuous, considering the source. I agree with a lot of it, don't get me wrong, but she's just sounding like a hypocrite saying it.

I was at Niagara Falls and checking out Clifton Hill...but I didn't go into the WWE store. The two arcades there were vastly more interesting to me. They had Raiden Fighters Jet and Virtua Cop 3!!

Yes, Superman's fantasy was slightly different. For one thing, he didn't retire to a farm. There are a few other things that are different, but I don't want to spoil the story for those who haven't read it. As for Mongul's fantasy; yes, they did show what he was fantasizing about. Rockin'. I actually remembered that. Now I need to try to find a trade paperback with that one in it, since I lost the original.

Yeah, but this isn't DC, as was mentioned. And yes, sometimes a new director for a series isn't necessarily a bad thing. For example, Cameron and Aliens. Plus...uh...I can't think of any other.

...which is basically exactly what I said, but thanks for seconding it.

I actually remember checking out FTMWHE in one of the reprints. Loved it, and was totally marking out when I realized it was going to be the same. Two questions though: wasn't Supes' fantasy slightly different, and did they show what Mongul was fantasizing in the comic? It also reminds me of the very similar Batman: The Animated Series episode where Bruce found himself in a very similar situation--but rather than reliving when his parents were killed with a different result, he was zapped right back into his "ideal" life. (Ep name escapes me, don't have that episode guide link on this computer...but it seems it was inspired by that story)

Well, if it were Spike TV or something, Football Guy would go undefeated throughout the entire tournament. Didnt Gamefaqs just have a Character Battle in spring or something?

Does anyone think we might see him return as Shane Helms and not the Hurricane? I'd say it would be more likely he'd return as the Mega Maniac or Fur Face/Run-In Man/etc. They'd be more likely to use him as Hurricane than a skinny jobber using his real(ish) name. Besides, Shane Helms? They might confuse him with Shane McMahon. Can't have that, can we? Agreed. If he's just following the rules WWE laid down, I can't really blame him. However, sounds like stone-age thinking since no one gives a damn about whether or not an OVW face and OVW heel are hanging out together. If anyone gives a damn about OVW period, they probably are wise enough to the business that such a thing isn't going to shatter their illusion of wrestling. This is SO screaming to be elaborated on by DEAN... However, I don't think WWE's main demographics have much interaction with women, at least not women unrelated to them. This is San Francisco--surely the men there do, too? Gotta love how the Observer covers anything even remotely related to wrestling. Or not. Translation: The writer here loves WWE Style, and Grisham, contrary to early reports, knows jack **** about the business and is another worthless "pretty young man" hired by that buck-toothed jack off Dunn. If Cole looks informed and well-composed next to you, you just suck.

Uh...where's the "irony?" However, I'm surprised he only paid 200 bucks for it (well, 100 between RD and Blade), but I'm still confounded anyone would pay that much for it. I eagerly await the follow up on it, though.

Is "LEZ" considered a slur, or does it merely have to do with it referring to homosexuality? Is it in the Scrabble dictionary? Yeah, I know it isn't Scrabble, but I wouldn't be surprised if they had a Boggle equivalent. I always through the proper spelling would be "LES" myself.

Too bad, since I figured it was merely going to be delayed. However, I don't actually believe that Superman is going to come out before X3 anyway... Geez, between Batman, Catwoman, and Superman, nearly every DC movie has been delayed to a ridiculous extent. However, unlike DC's recent properties (save Batman Begins), Marvel's done decent to great jobs on all theirs. While certainly there's some fear that they'll simply farm it to hack director, give him a tiny budget, and we'll see a terrible cheesefest or rehash, it seems Marvel cares more (plus they have far more control that DC does, because what DC movies are made and how they're done is almost completely up to WB). Heh--maybe they can hire Richard Donner to do X3 in an ironic twist. Heck, he was an Ex Producer on the first X-Men I heard.

"Former WWE Star"...and nobody seems to remember him being there or the name he used there. (Man Mountain Rock as part of the "New Generation" of 1995, if I recall correctly. ) I think the case was dismissed, because surely any sensible judge and jury would see there's absolutely no similarity in the characters, plus there's one less X in "Max"'s name. Surely Rockstar would rip off the name of a wrestler some one had actually heard of. Plus the name is so punny and cheesy it can hardly be deemed all that original. It sounds like an indie wrestler name, because it's little more than that.

The superior DKC2 doesn't have the 2 Player option? I remember it had some issues in the first one, namely you still only control one character at a time, although you can "steal" control back and forth as you wish. King of the Monsters Oh, Animaniacs is also a co-op action game--made by Konami! Damn fun too, although I haven't played it in a while since it's just not as fun without 2 players. Censorship aside, Samurai Shodown is still a pretty good game.

I'd agree. Hey, remember that WWE deal Rulon Gardner was supposedly going to get? Didn't think so.

Saturday Night Slam Masters (2 Player co-op, competitive--hell, up to four players on this one, actually) Wild Guns (Kind of like if Trigun had a game...but it came out on SNES) Sunset Riders (Rarer than the Genesis version, but IMO the better version). Mortal Kombat II (Best version of the game until...well, at least until Midway Arcade Treasures 2 comes out) Contra 3 (shoot, kill, blow **** up, kick ass, take names, enjoy the awesome effects...wish I hadn't sold this game. Argh!) Zombies Ate My Neighbors (Very cool game) Ghoul Patrol (Sequel to Zombies Ate My Neighbors, with better...everything; nuff said) Total Carnage (If you don't pick up Midway Arcade Treasures 2, this is worth snapping up). Secret of Mana (1-3 players!) Lost Vikings: Action/Puzzler. Fatal Fury Special: Rock-solid 16-bit translation, still worth checking out if you can't get ahold of, say, a Saturn to play any of the Real Bouts. I'd also like to take note that the SNES was totally screwed out of a good 2-Player Batman how many times. Batman Returns and Adventures of Batman and Robin really could have used a good 2-Player mode. Sure, stuff like that crappy Batman Forever game gets one but not those. Nooo! TMNT IV: Turtles in Time is a good choice. It's not as good as the arcade, but a fun beat 'em up. I've heard some say that X previous game was better, so others may wanna chime in on that since I'm not sure.
