I guess we're supposed to forget Lita was in ECW.

Don't sell yourself short, there. The ejaculation alone would probably take a few seconds longer than that.

Speaking of the draft, I honestly can't think of anyone on Smackdown besides Kurt Angle I'd like to see on Raw.

Nice of Lawler to beat Jericho to the punchline.

Chyna's back? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And after I've been watching "Surreal Life" all day, no less!

Hopefully, that'll be the last shot at any title Grenier gets, ever.

If that wasn't a rhetorical question, I'm screwed.

Smart crowd.

In a related story, I hear they're finally making a big screen adaptation of the novel "Gone With the Wind," and there's a big search to see who's going to play Scarlett O'Hara! Seriously, dude, check the date on your news before you post it.

I always thought that Leia was talking about Bail Organa's wife, who she thought was her mother all that time. Luke specifically asks her if she remembered her REAL mother. Of course Leia's gonna know she's adopted. Her parents are Hispanic, and she's white. -
Guantanamo Bay “has become the gulag of our time"
SuperJerk replied to cbacon's topic in Current Events
Actually, I was expecting you to back up your ideas with actual legal precedents, as you have usually done in the past. Compared the conservative circle jekr it'd become until recently? Its not our fault most of your team went AWOL after the mods decided one of you finally crossed the line, and you guys no longer have free run of the place. -
I'd heard it was about $500 a week in OVW.

Alternate spelling of "Osama". If you're still confused, I can't help you.

10 minutes of Batman Begins footage
SuperJerk replied to AmericanDragon's topic in Television & Film
No. That's not it at all. That's pretty much the opposite of what every person on the production wanted. I thought if that's what they were trying to do they'd have used the Joker and just said "those other movies never happened". That is what they're doing. The Joker is going to be in the sequel with Two-Face in the third movie. I feel better now. -

No. That's not it at all. That's pretty much the opposite of what every person on the production wanted. I figured if that's what they really were trying to do, they'd have used the Joker and just said "those other movies never happened". Again, I still don't see what's wrong with Batman running around in a dark bodysuit with a kevlar cape to protect him. As it stands now, Daredevil has had a far more faithful portrayl on the big screen than Batman has. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I won't see the movie because of the body armor, but I'd feel better about seeing it if he didn't. Body armor has never been part of the Batman mythos, and for them to include it when the only other time we saw him wear it was in some movies this one's supposed to have no connection too...it just makes me wonder if the films are really not supposed to tie together at all. -

The "you are so beautiful" scene was a neccesary evil that was only to show them together in a happy moment before all the DRAMA~! about her dying went down. Considering how often married women try to trick their husbands into insulting them (i.e. "does this make me look fat" or "do you think my boobs are too small"), the scene was actually fairly realistic. -

I'm not concerned with his running speed, I'm talking about his total body movement. He runs fast, but he has to struggle to get over the ledge onto the rooftop. I can't imagine body armor would allow someone to be flexible and lightweight enough to do the kinds of fighting Batman's supposed to be able to do. -

SuperJerk replied to AmericanDragon's topic in Television & Film
I guess they wanted people to tie this in with the other Batman movies, even if it probably contradicts parts of the story from the 1989 film, but I STILL DON'T GET THE POINT OF PUTTING BATMAN IN BODY ARMOR. He's not Ironman, here. He's an acrobat and martial artist. If they're worried about bullets, they make lightweight kevlar that would give him protection. How the fuck is he even supposed to move in that thing, let alone do flips and swing around rooftops? -
One and Only Star Wars Geekiness Thread
SuperJerk replied to Black Lushus's topic in Television & Film
You're absolutely right. I've been watching parts of the original trilogy ever since I read the ROTSith novelization, and it gives the original trilogy a added depth. I rewatched the scene last night from ROTJedi when Luke tells Leia she's his sister. The acting in ROTSith was at about this level, but the acting in AOTC was much worse. Anytime someone blames the script on the bad acting in these movies, I point to Alec Guiness, Christopher Lee, Liam Neeson, Ian McDairmid, Harrison Ford, Peter Cushing, and Jame Earl Jones as people who still managed to give convincing performances given bad material. A good actor can make anything sound real. I think the cave was part of why he went there, I think the taint of the dark side made it easier for him to keep from being detected. I think all 3 of those things are factors. Since we never see Yoda land of Dagobah in ROTSith, perhaps there's a story about how he discovered the place we'll see at some point in the future (the upcoming TV show perhaps?). Given how Lucas left it intentionally open at the end of ROTSith that there might still be Jedi left alive, I can only imagine how many stories can still be told (Vader hunting down additional Jedi, Yoda looking for a place to hide, the formation of the Rebel Alliance, the possibilities are endless). -

Anakin did wear the more traditional Jedi robes at the end of "The Phantom Menace", though. -
Guantanamo Bay “has become the gulag of our time"
SuperJerk replied to cbacon's topic in Current Events
In 2004, the Supreme Court rejected the argument that people detained at Guantanamo were legally outside of the U.S. and did not have the Constitutional rights in the case Rasul vs. Bush, and ruled that prisoners in Guantanamo have access to American courts, citing the fact that the U.S. has exclusive control over Guantanamo Bay (thus making this example different than the rules established by the Johnson v. Eisentrager case about the treatment and rights of German war criminals after WWII). While the Constitution puts limits on what the American government is allowed to do, it never states that the rules are nullified if non-Americans are involved. In my opinion, the US government must treat everyone the same, regardless of where they were born. Imagine if the Declaration of Independence said "Only American are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights". That'd totally violate the spirit of the document, and yet that's what saying "Only Americans have Constitutional rights" argues for. Whether you believe in a devine power or not, it has been the official position of this nation since its founding that all men should have the same rights (failures to do follow this have led to historic struggles in which freedom has ultimately prevailed). Rights are naturally occurring things, not provisions provided to citizens by their government. (I'd be very interested in reading Justice's thoughts on this topic.) -
That rules.
