    My general sense regarding IZ is one of frustration. My 'Friday Nightmare' angle (which I had hoped could have led to a long interbrand feud) went absolutely nowhere (except for ShooterJay's contribution to the show). Now, I'm focusing on college, and I'd hoped that an ASlam match where I could lose and get jobbed out of IZ would be a good way to end the story of Orion. Unfortunately, since nobody wrote the match (I couldn't because of goodbyes/packing for college), my 2+month storyline got dropped like a hot potato. Ironically, this past Thursday ME approached me about becoming the new GM of IZ but I refused because now I really don't have the time to write stuff every week. In short, I'm probably going to be MIA from IZ until sometime where I can return and get the Orion character killed off once and for all.

    18 months ago, you and some other guys discussed creating a Hasbro/Galoob wrestling figure league in this thread right here. I started booking for it, designing logos and everything. Then, out of the blue the whole idea was dropped.

     

    Drury37 and AM the Kid, you guys were the original founders and you still post on this board. Most importantly, you still have all the classic figures. Let's finally get the WWF (World of Wrestling Figures) on the road!

    It's a good idea, but shouldn't happen for a while. They have just started the split-brand PPV's and fans need to become adjusted to that so once they feel totally comfortable with it and accept the shows as totally separate, THEN you can bring up the notion of trades and contracts.

    How much longer would you give it before you try this idea, RRR?

    Actually, I'm pretty sure Paramount made him retarded, or at least deformed. I haven't seen 2, 3, or 4 in a long time, but I do remember in 8 when he takes the mask off, one eye was lower than the other.

    But if you also remember in 8 when the bio-hazard washed him away he turned back into a child, with no deformanties. The bad eye was a result of decompisition.

    Part VIII was, in short, an anomaly created by Paramount execs to kill off the Jason character (which they saw as a liability and an undesirable franchise) by basically burying him while also making some quick summer movie ca$h. The director wanted Part VIII to be 2 movies: one on the boat and one in NY (set back to back like III and IV). Paramount refused, so he had to condense them into 1 movie. The execs wanted Part VIII to end Jason and the F13 franchise, so that's why they insisted on the 'toxic waste' ending (figuring no character could recover from regressing to a childlike state).

     

    Jason was deformed as a boy...one of the 'flashback Jasons' in Part VIII is deformed and another is not (in part because nobody really gave a fuck about continuity on this movie...Crystal Lake connects to the OCEAN? It's a LAKE!).

    You have to back to Royal Rumble 1992 for a true UNCERTANITY.

     

    HBK/HART? I wasn't really on the IWC scene at the time so i knew NOTHING of the whole deal...

     

    WM2000 was little shakey with the Whole Foley deal and rock...and I even slightly thought TBS would win but oddly NEVER banked HHH would do the one thing no one ever did...Walk out the champion as a heel

    I was convinced Foley would win at WM2000 because on March 23's edition of SmackDown!, Linda McMahon explained what would happen in the event of a Foley victory:

     

    "Triple H, let me give you this bit of information - I think that in all

    likelihood, Mick Foley WILL win the match at WrestleMania. And he, then, would go out on top - the way he should go out - retire as the World Wrestling Federation champion. However, that night the title would be declared vacant, and the very next night a tournament would begin that would last for the next few weeks, all the way to Backlash in Washington, DC, where a new World Wrestling Federation champion WILL be crowned."

    Bad Blood - Goldberg / HHH = Original main event before it got changed.

    As a side note: do we know if that match was actually ever going to take place?

     

    I've been behind with WWE programming for a long time, and have only now just caught up. I was wondering if they were just teasing it for a later date, or if they had actually planned to have that match at SS.

    Houston area cable providers featured a 30-second spot that said that that was the match. It even had clips of Goldberg talking shit about HHH.

    Personally, I loved it!

     

    It was 2 hours of non-stop mark out moments for me. Taking the mythos of both characters, intertwining them well while still keeping them both strong AND giving us a great fight at the end and I'm VERY satisfied.

     

    This film surpassed my expectations by leaps and bounds and I couldn't help but mark out at all of the little inside jokes that were thrown out.

     

    I marked out for the random goat in the dream.

     

    I marked out for the intertwined Freddy & Jason theme RIGHT IN THE BEGINNING.

     

    I marked out for the homage they paid for the pool scene in NOES 2.

     

    I marked for the use of the NOES footage towards the beginning of the film.

     

    I marked for the mere MENTION of Hypnocil, much less the fact that it played an important part of the storyline.

     

    I marked out for the gratuitous nudity.

     

    I marked out for truly getting into Jason's pysche.

     

    I marked out for some of the very cool death scenes.

     

    Shit, I marked out when I saw Sean S. Cunningham and Robert Shaye's name side by side in the Producers credits.

     

    All in all, I'd say that this was absolutely incredible, I'm seeing it again and I highly recommend it for fans of either series.

     

    Dames

    I marked out for the bag being put over young Jason's head (shades of part 2) as well as KRGR being the TV station and what appeared to be "Part VII" on the TV in the psych ward before the news came on.
