  1. I'm going to have to go with Kyle Secor's Tim Bayliss in "Homicide:Life On The Street". He starts out as a typical fresh, bumbling do-gooder rookie trying to prove himself. As the show progressed over the years, he transformed into a tortured, sleep deprived detective, a shaved head macho tough guy, broke down and admitted he was sexually molested as a child, an eastern religion spouting looney, a little bit of a man-whore, experiments with bisexuality and finally, a burnt out cop who takes a sabbatical.. Any others?
  2. Okay, I stopped watching pro wrestling somewhere around the big Rock/Hogan match at Wrestlemania a few years ago..I'll catch a match or two once a month now, and I'm amazed at what I see. BRADSHAW main eventing?!! Kurt Angle retiring (maybe?)? I'm glad to see that Benoit has had a title reign (or two?), but I've missed so much. Here are probably some stupid questions, but I'm curious to see what's become of the sport that I once loved so passionately.. 1.What happened to Chris "harvard" nowinski? Is he still wrestling? Is he good? 2.Seriously, BRADSHAW is a main eventer?? When did this happen? Does he have legit heat? Can he draw? 3. Who are the workhorses of the WWE brand now? Back then it was benoit/guerro/angle. They would completely outshine the rest of the roster, and benoit wasn't even a main eventer then. 4. Brock Lesnar quit, but is he back now? Thought I read something in a wrestling magazine... 5.Randy Orton- Face or Heel? AND Can he wrestle a match? 6. Batista- Face or Heel? And can he wrestle a match? 7. What became of the two Tough Enough winners? (they were both guys..) I think it was season 3? 8.Where is Vince Russo now? 9. Has Rob Van Dam done anything worthwhile in the past couple years? Or is he still doing 4 minute matches with Taijiri? 10. Gimme the top 4 wrestlers in each brand. "workrate"wise and "heat-wise". 11. Any new guys on the scene that have absolutely BLOWN you guys away? 12. What are some of the biggest news items that has rocked the wrestling world (backstage-wise) in the past 2 years? One of the last things I remember was the infamous "Flight from hell" situation where Brock Lesnar and Mr Perfect almost killed the entire flight crew... I know this is asking a lot, but I'd appreciate any answers. Thanks guys and girls.

    LOST

    I noticed on the recap show when they first crashed on the island, Jin was walking around trying to serve people food, a nice little nod to the fact that he used to be a waiter. Love these little things.

    Waitaminute...

    Is this true? Is he in a non-wrestling role? What's the story?

    Loved this episode. It reminded me of season one old school suspense. For a minute I forgot about the whole nuclear thing and was just transfixed into the classic cat and mouse, evade and hide sequence. Great suspense. Probably my vote for most entertaining hour of TV this year yet.

    I've Been Out Of The Loop For A Few Years...

    Awesome....Thanks for all the answers. I know I'll have more questions, so I'll probably post another thread later. Again, Thanks.

    Let me say that the whole "Driscolls retarded daughter" storyline reeks of the "chloe baby" story from last season..where is THIS one going?

    DAREDEVIL: The Director's Cut

    It would be awesome if the omitted that whole embarassing fight in the playground between affleck/garner. Also, the scene in the beginning where young matt murdock does this huge friggin somersault to get out of the bully's way....THAT was a tad bit ridiculous...What, was he a master gymnast at 8 years, too?

    Superman

    Has anyone read Kurt Busieks "Secret Identity". Amazing story. it just came out in graphic novel form, and i highly reccomend it. It's almost an "ultimization" of Superman, and the writing is pure poetry.

    LOST

    FYI, "LOST" is the cover story of the new Entertainment Weekly magazine, and it's a really favorable, well written article. There's a nice little sidebar that analyzes the different theories about the show; are they dead, is this a dream, etc. My favorite theory that I never thought about was this: What if the plane went down due to a mazzive battle or some catastrophe that broke out, so pretty much everyone on the planet is dead? If you think about it, they could stay on the island for another season or 2, somehow get off the island sail away to the nearest landmass and find everyone dead. They could still be "lost" but now they're all alone in the world.

    Xbox Troubles...

    The light at the front of my console is blinking orange and green and not reading any games. I get a blank screen, too. I'm 100 percent sure this has something to do with the fact that I brought it (checked) on an airplane this holiday weekend. Could the metal detectors or x-rays have messed up the drive? I am technically inept at stuff like this, so ANY help would be appreciated, since I was SO close to beating Halo 2.

    Xbox Troubles...

    True, I logged into their tech support chat last night and "Valerie" cleared everything up. I just had to re-insert my a/v cord. Thanks for the input, all.

    SAW/Ray

    I saw Ray tonight. Jamie Foxx is amazing in it, but the movie is a tad too long, and it kinda wraps up pretty fast, but it's worth it to see Foxx acting his balls out. This movie reminded me why I love playing music so much.

    Favorite Horror Movie Moments

    One of the more disturbing things I've seen was in "Final Destination" when the kid is in the bathroom cutting his nose hair, and he trips and chokes himself on the shower curtain...crazy.
  17. Just picked up the new issue of Wizard, and there's a nice little article on this. It was mentioned that the first thing Bryan Singer he did was ditch the script, which would have revolved around some kind of Kryptonian bounty hunter hunting Superman, while he had do deal with Lex Luthor. (whew). He also repordedly is ditching the idea of having a "big name" star play Supes (Tom Welling, Jake Gyllenhal, Josh Hartnett, Brendan Fraser". (also a good call) Shooting will be in Australia with producer Jon Peters (Batman). Reportedly a $200 million budget. (sweet christmas!) There was talk that it would be POSSIBLE for him to direct X3, but not probable, since shooting for Supes would end right around the time X3 would be ready for production. The studio is looking for directors. Possible replacements include Richard Donner, David Goyer (Blade:Trinity), and Guillermo Del Toro (Hellboy). He's still set to write the 2005 arc of Ultimate Xmen. Comments? I would rather see X3 wait for him...He got better with X2, he's starting to develop a rhythm with the characters and their underlying stories...But he IS a good choice as any to direct Supes. He's proven himeself to please mainstream and "smart" fans with Xmen..sooooo...thoughts?
  18. whoops. Thanks for letting me know it had already been covered.
  19. Spoiler!!!! I was completey shocked to see Colossus return..and kick ass to boot! I love it. I'm intruiged more than ever now. Thoughts?

    Astonishing X-Men #4...DAAAYUMMM!

    I thought the whole "bitching about people coming back from the dead" stuff was over. Isn't it kind of to be expected nowadays anyway? I'm just hoping it can be explained decently. Anyhoo, I didn't see it coming, and I liked it.

    thirteen

    Was anybody else besides me aroused when the two 13 year olds started making out with the 20 year old guy, then made out with each other? Seriously, that was some hot shit.

    The Village

    I was surprised that such a powerhouse cast had so little screen time. Sigourney Weaver, Adrien Brody, and Joaquin Phoenix..I thought the movie would really center around them, but they seemed just like fancy window dressing compared to the amount of dialogue and screen time given to the main actress. I can't figure out how to do spoiler tags, so BEWARE, SPOILER COMING UP You gotta admit, Phoenix's death DID surprise. The marquee star bit it halfway through the movie. I was shocked.

    Rescue Me...

    I'm a firefighter, and this show was pretty realistic. Watching the station scenes was like being at work. I was a little hesitant about Dennis Leary, but, good Lord, he owned in his role. Even the little things, like the guys checking out the girls on the way to the fire, is so right on...This is my new summer show.

    Chuck Austen Leaves X-Men

    I'm glad. This current "day of the atom" storyline sucks scrotem. I have a subscription to Xmen right now, and each month I'm thoroughly dissapointed. The script was downright laughable...just read the last page of #159. The Collective Man? WTF is this crap? And I felt like I was reading a Jughead Double Digest comic while reading the dialogue between Juggernaut and Iceman. This storyline better wrap up fast.
