  1. What's there to re-watch in Iron Man? Him flying around and then crashing into the house?
  2. I don't see how anyone can call WarGames overrated, when not booked by retards, it's fantastic. WarGames 94 is awesome, really an underrated match if anything. Yes, the lack of blood sucks, but you have 8 guys in there who know how to fight. WarGames 96 tells a great story. AA and Flair beating the shit out of Hogan is awesome and I love the Sting stuff. 1998 is terrible, it has no redeeming qualities. 2000 isn't even a WarGames, it's just a trainwreck. The Cat's run-in is gold
  3. The big problem is that the ads didn't say what the movie was even about, which made it impossible to attract non-fans
  4. 11) People here think Big Bossman was WCW 4 life. JN News is one of those posters who just seem oblivious to everything
  5. 9) At TSM, Chris Masters is dead.
  6. Some of King's one-liners are really funny on this PPV. Ahmed Johnson looked like he was killing Bulldog and Owen with his sloppiness
  7. That youtube vid was also in the TDK thread- I'm embarassed to admit I loved Batman and Robin when I was 12. I also had a thing for Alicia Silverstone, I even saw Excess Baggage.
  8. Saw it opening night. I'll see any movie involving the Leafs
  9. I would never walk out of a movie. I considered walking out of The Love Guru, but you gotta stay till the end. That's the only recent movie I'd walk out of horrible, the other reasons would just me being anal about audience behaviour and technical problems
  10. Warner Bros is predicting in its 18th day of release
  11. It was Lionel Tate
  12. He probably edited his post. Coach was fine as buffoon heel, but him and Cole were impossible to listen to on SD!
  13. I know, it's just as an Observer subscriber who realises how much Dave puts into that newsletter, he deserves some credit
  14. wrestlezone poached that from the Observer
  15. That nWo Hoeseman spoof was awesome. It was evil, but hilarious.
  16. answer. it's really bothering me that you bitch at everyone for this but don't even use caps in your own name. This was already discussed a few pages back
  17. He isn't completely healed and is currently mired in a contract dispute as well. I haven't heard anything about a contract dispute, where did you hear this?
  18. Thank you guys for clarifying.
  19. I feel I should complain about this on general principles, but I really have nothing to complain about
  20. Choken One calling out anyone for being stupid is funny in itself. I totally forget most of Batman Begins- what happened to the Scarecrow at the end of the movie, that would cause him to be part of the fake Batman in TDK
  21. I just don't think it's a good idea to re-cast such an iconic role, it never ends well, and the comparisons between the two Jokers will just overshadow the movie. Plus, who even knows Johnny Depp wants to do this movie? The guy who played the Joker sadly passed on, so it's time to come up with new villains and scenarios.
  22. Good to see cabbageboy's brother made it back to the boards. You're the one who has made the dumbest posts in the thread. Recasting the Joker is just asking for backlash and for people to find a reason to shit on the movie. I think Bane would be a cool villain, though.
  23. The Dark Knight raced past the $200M mark on Tuesday after only five days becoming the fastest film in Hollywood history to reach that milestone. The old record was eight days and was held by three films - 2006's Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, 2004's Spider-Man 2, and 2005's Star Wars Episode III. The latest Batman saga grossed a stellar $20.9M on Tuesday, off 15% from Monday, to raise its total to $203.8M. It was also the second biggest Tuesday gross in history after the opening day of Transformers last July which brought in $27.9M. The Christian Bale starrer has also broken the opening week record even though it still has two days left in the period. That benchmark was set in July 2006 by Chest which grabbed $196M in its first seven days. Dark Knight is on course to finish its debut week with a jaw-dropping $235-240M. That means that if the superhero sequel can post a second weekend decline of 60% or lower, it will crack the $300M threshold on Sunday after a mere ten days smashing yet another record. Chest currently holds that record as well doing the deed in 16 days. Warner Bros. got off to a 17% larger opening weekend with Knight compared to Disney's Chest. Now after five days, Batman is running 20% ahead of Captain Jack's pace. Knight's midweek total from Monday to Thursday now seems on course to reach roughly $80M which is an amount most other summer blockbusters never even reach on opening weekend. For 2008, The Joker and pals already have the fourth biggest grosser trailing Paramount's trio of Iron Man, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and Kung Fu Panda. At its current pace, Dark Knight will surpass Panda on Wednesday in its sixth day, and will soar past the other two next week becoming 2008's highest grossing blockbuster in less than 14 days of release. A final tally north of $400M now seems all but guaranteed given the continued box office muscle being displayed. Be sure to check back on Thursday for continued coverage of The Dark Knight's record-shattering opening week. http://www.boxofficeguru.com/072308b.htm
