  1. What an awful ripoff. I really hope they change that up.
  2. Whatever the case, the crowd popped for it, so it did its job. Now we need the Kurt Angle / Big Show buddy cop movie.
  3. All the shows (or most) go on sale June 17 at 10 AM on Ticketmaster's site. These shows are such rush jobs that I'm sure TM doesn't even have them listed.
  4. Seeing ECW tour commercials is making me mark out with a huge smile on my face.

    ECW One Night Stand 2 Thread

    If it was still $34.95 I'd consider the webcast. But $40 is just ridiculous for three hours of entertainment. I'll avoid wrestling boards for two days, TiVo Raw, and then download ONS.

    VHS is dead

    From DVD Talk Shit. Now I've gotta go spend $200 tomorrow. Way too many quality direct-to-video films that will never get a DVD release.

    Comments which don't warrant a thread

    Jamal doesn't have the charisma to pull off much else. Yes, they "waste" five guys on a hugely succesful gimmick that is drawing heat and main eventing TV shows. Boogey Man got OVER and Burchill is perfect for the pirate gimmick. It's just a damn shame he has no ring presence to accompany his charisma.

    Minoriteam

    Perfect Hair Forever would probably be hilarious if, you know, I'd watched more than an hour of anime in my entire life.

    Minoriteam

    12 Oz. Mouse is awesome. Squidbillies can be great, but it can also be awful. Moral Orel is fantastic. lovecraft, are you aware that it's a twisted take Davey and Goliath and 50's sitcoms in general? I've always loved Tom Goes to the Mayor. Minoriteam, however, is AWFUL. I can't stand it. It's not funny, it's not topical, the animation doesn't work for TV, etc. I fast forwarded through this week's episode.

    Lame Franchises You'd Re-Invent...

    Bloodfist with Don Wilson and none of this set in the future bullshit. American Ninja with anyone Operation Delta Force, just because you can never get enough Todd Jensen and Frank Zagarino

    Box Office Report...

    Well, that is well below my 8 million prediction. Looks like they got no one but WWE fans. I think we all expected the movie to open up in at least 2,000 theaters. Although, adjusted for the 1,200 screens it played on, $4.3 million is still a pretty sad number.

    ECW gets a normal time slot

    BSG averaged a 2.0 for this past season apparently. To someone earlier in the thread ... Just because ECW won't be the highest rated show on the network doesn't mean Sci-Fi is going to regret putting it on the air. Sci-Fi is usually dead in the water on weekdays. This week they're premiering Komodo vs. Cobra in what will be ECW's timeslot, and as much as this Jim Wynorski effort is going to rock, it probably won't crack a 1 due to most Sci-Fi movie fans being accustomed to Saturday movie watching. Anyone who thinks ECW will have a difficult time hitting at least a 1.3 is nuts.

    See No Evil

    Yeah, and so are the men. Fucking idiot. I saw the movie last night in a relatively packed theater. I had a fun time, although the moments between Kane's opening scene and Kane's reintroduction are difficult to sit through at times. Gregory Dark is certainly a music video director. There is one ridiculously ill-conceived shot of one of the male cast members running down a hallway with the steadycam tilted upwards towards his face, all while eighteen different cuts play out on the screen. My friend asked me why they were doing that, and all I could reply with was, "Well, that's we in the biz call bad directing and editing."

    2006 Fall Line-Up Thread...

    Everybody Hates Chris' ratings have sagged, and I believe it's due to the older households who tuned in because of the critical hype having gradually left, leaving a lot of younger viewers and families. EHC is one of PTC's favorite family friendly shows. It's also the highest rated of the UPN sitcom fleet, which means you use it as a lead-in for the other shows.

Bones and Wedding Album get the Friday Night death slot starting in January, although that will probably change. FOX finally realized that having a live action show between four animated shows is silly. And the sitcoms certainly aren't going to have an easy time. As if their lead-out wasn't a sinking ship, they're up against My Name Is Earl and The Office and ABC's sitcom line-up.

    I downloaded all the episodes and burned them to a CD when I still had the chance. People in the year 2040 need to see this show.

    Favorite Aqua Teen Episode

    I usually have a hard time pinpointing specific episodes of a show, but The Cybernetic Ghost Of Christmas Past From The Future and Hypno Germ are both the best of the bunch.

    Day Break, which is Groundhog Day 2006, could be good. Taye Diggs + Adam Baldwin sounds like a good combo. The Nine and Traveler also sound cool. God only knows how the comedies are going to pan out.

    The Simpsons: Season 8 DVD Artwork, Specs, and Date!

    I remember WWF Magazine making it out like Bret was going to be featured in the entire episode, then he has a 10-second cameo and that was that. It barely sounded like him to boot. And the punchline to his joke was terrible.

    2006 Fall Line-Up Thread...

    Honestly, why would they pick it up for a second season? They put it on for what I believe was an entire season after one of the hottest shows in America and it bombed. Nothing's been confirmed on the VM front. It would be beautiful is ABC followed the cancelation of Freddie with George Lopez and According to Jim. As for NBC, I'm looking forward to the new comedies, Kidnapped, and Studio 60. Kidnapped being on Tuesday nights, on NBC, with a lead-in that is also new, however, doesn't exactly give me faith in its future success. Andy Barker, P.I. is surely going to rock, and the combo of Tambor and Lithgow will hopefully be enough to overcome the awful name. And Alec Baldwin was a fucking riot during his W&G appearances, so 30 Rock (what is it with these titles?) may be half decent. I'm already beginning to wonder what shows will be Head Cased and Just Legaled this coming Fall.

    Comments which don't warrant a thread

    Actually, the biggest star is Kane, who millions of American know by name and face. The movie will do at least $12 million domestic and even more internationally. Stay Alive of all movies made $22 million. It's not going to bomb.

    I'm going to see it Friday morning and I'm intentionally avoiding any reviews until then. I've always been a fan of low rent slashers, so this will probably work for me.
