CLASSIC.

But since the movie is ostensibly a documentary, basing it on lies, half-truths, staged scenarios, and speeches edited for effect is dishonest. There's precious little point in supporting a dishonest filmmaker who peddles his wares as the truth. This movie isn't supposed to be a presentation-of-facts documentary. It's a drama, it's a comedy, and it's a filmed editorial -- all wrapped up in one! One of the best movies of 2002. See, that's where I always got confused. See, I always thought that documentaries were supposed to be based on truth. Whereas documentaries that were based on nothing but lies and half-truths (which is what Moore does these days) were, at best, "mock" documentaries or just flat out PROPAGANDA. But I suppose I must be wrong.

I tend to agree. Here's what I have never liked about the entire religion vs. science argument: both sides act as if it's all or nothing. Either the universe is totally a fluke, or it's totally done by God. It can't be both? Science doesn't disprove God, God doesn't disprove science. Both can coexist HARMONIOUSLY.

Vyce, you were the one making fun of dead French people. So don't proceed to judge me. And if you could actually READ you would see I started this thread to DEFEND America. But you don't care. You just used this as a chance to harass me. Here's my thing with you. I'm not certain what you're more upset about - the WWE portraying the French as arrogant pricks or booking Conway to give a speech portraying Americans as evil "terrorists" worthy of contempt. Most of the rest of us just don't even fucking care about this angle nearly enough or at all to be outraged one way or the other. Oh, and even if it seems like I do, I'm not really personally judging you, so don't get your knickers in a twist. That would have worked. Then we all could have hated them guilt free.

I have a collection of dead baby jokes if you want me to toss some of them around.

Oh, I always sign those two teams to whatever promotion I'm running. They put together good matches with virtually everyone, and I've feuded them twice in two separate promotions and each feud has burnt the house down.

Sure about that, sport? True, but they do them so exceptionally well.

You haven't spent any time in the Current Events folder, have you. GOD FORBID the WWE poke a little fun at the French. Please, show me some Japanese porn that a) actually shows the genitals as opposed to pixelated or blacked out splotches or b) doesn't involve tentacles fucking someone in ever hole but the ear. Spare me this "Japan is so above it all" bullshit. And I actually LIKE Japan. Quiet, Frenchy.

You've never had one of their doughnuts right out of the oven, have you?

Of course it matters. But with France it seems everyone ignores the good stuff they do and focuses on the bad. Ironic, because that's what they do to US.

I just downloaded and installed the RaveX update. I'm going to stat a WWE game where Paul Heyman brings in a stable of Pride fighters to "invade" the company. I'm going to have one hell of a fun time booking Cro Crop to execute HHH and Silva to utterly demolish Taker.

Silly Protestants. As the Catholic Church has taught us, the only real way to get demons out of little boys is through their assholes.

And it's statements like that which make me question why anyone takes you seriously. The better question is why anybody takes FRANCE seriously. -=Mike ..."Why, Herr Hitler, can we give you some wine while we surrender? How about escargot?" I just don't think he likes my new sig, Mike. Well, I never did say I had taste, did I. I will spare you some of the delectable dead Frenchman jokes I just heard recently. As for WWI, France did fight valiantly for MOST of the war. They deserve our compassion in that conflict, as it was their country which became the Western Front, and they lost around a million men in the war, and an untold number of others on the homefront due to the disease and malnutrition which affected the populace once the nation mobilised. However, in 1917 the French army mutinied (rathe quietly), and although they were able to pull themselves together somewhat at the end of the war, after their "collapse" they were never the same again. Had it not been for the British, whose willingness to sacrifice thousands upon thousands of their own lives to finish the war, or us Americans, who literally turned the tide of the war with MILLIONS of troops added to the conflict, France would have fallen. But they were never the same after 1917, and it shows.

France should just get back to counting its heatstroked thousands of elderly corpses.

Religion will never be able to disprove science. However, science will never be able to disprove religion. And that pretty much sums it all up.

Well, I agree with his remarks that Kane's window of opportunity if rapidly diminishing and that HHH is not a professional.

Yea- She was doing so much better on the indy scene. I don't understand why you can't be happy that a young woman now has a guaranteed contract and is working for the top promotion for the world with a chance to one day wrestle in front of 20,000 people instead of the 50 she sees most nights. Don't you understand how much of an improvement this could be for her life? But no- That's not good enough for you is it? You still have to be unhappy because they won't push her to the moon and may job her to Trish. DON'T YOU FUCKING GET IT? She'll be wrestling in front of 15,000 if she gets to wrestle on RAW. She's lucky to wrestle in 500. Her pay will increase dramatically, her lifestyle will improve- this could open whole new gates of fame and fortune for her. Get over yourself and look at the bigger picture. Someone probably just had their dream come true but no- that just pisses you off. Think of someone else for a change. You really don't see it? Ultimately, each and every one of us, as fans of the wrestling business in general, must, on some level, possess a degree of SELFISHNESS about our interest. I'm an Alexis fan. Do I want her to have a happy life? Yes, of course I do. But.....what is it to me what salary she makes? If she's wrestling in front of 15k fans as opposed to just 500? I mean, I'll be happy for her - but ultimately, that's not going to affect ME at all. She's not a friend of mine. She's not a part of my family. I don't know her....at all. And never will. All any of us ever really have of any of these workers are what they give us in front of the camera or at a live event. So is it selfish that I'm upset that she's going to the WWE (where, statistically, she will likely be misused) over someplace like NWA or ROH, where her talents are put to better use, though it means a better life for her? Yes. But I don't think that selfishness is unreasonable.

How come we never hear about the snake handlers anymore? I miss the snake handlers, I really do. What, has that fad died out already? It will break my heart a bit if it has.

You'd have to pay me to go see any of those comics. Yes, even Izzard.

It's like this. HHH is always injured. He is not over. He is stale and stagnant, and is not drawing them money. Goldberg, on the other hand, is in relatively good health, if occasionally moody backstage. After initial bad booking, he IS becoming over - at the least, as over as one can be on RAW. Goldberg has not had time yet to get stale, and if booked correctly - as a monster - it is PROVEN that he is a draw, at least on a level that, right now, eclipses HHH. So, what's the better decision? Keep the title on HHH or bite the bullet and put it on Goldie? The answer is clear. If the Goldberg title run didn't work, they have a viable alternative RIGHT THERE in Kane. Continuing to keep the belt on HHH's waist is just foolhardy at this point.

All Arnold needs is for McClintock to step his ass out, and he should be good to go.

Good for her. I look forward to her having to slut for Vince on camera and / or jobbing to Trish every week on RAW. Excuse me, I must go sit in the corner and weep a little.

Meanwhile, "Pirates" is quietly making its way to the $300 million mark. And Jackie needs to pick better scripts. He should realize that from here on out, he should only make films where he's paired with a wise-cracking black guy or a culture-shocked white dude.

Johnny Cash getting nominated kicks all sorts of ass. He had better win. It's the least MTV can do for us.
