If that's true, then those are some pretty crappy creditors, cuz he's had the same phone number for like five years now, we still talk every rare once in a while.

Personally, I'd be more upset that some dude was spewing any random liquid all over me than be upset that the liquid was alcoholic.

Jarrett, Brian Lee, Ricky & Robert, and an NWA belt. Man, that's more Southern than a plate of meatloaf and fried okra. Also, weird to look back on these old shows and remember when guys like Daniels, Modest, Morgan, Crash, Scotty, etc. were all standard jobbers.
-
Also, I find it incredibly ironic that people looked at Sandman, a guy who holds a weapon in one hand and a beer in the other, and thought the beer was the more offensive of the two.

...and these people never complained during Stone Cold's heyday, why? 1.This requires either extreme ignorance or apathy. And since I can't believe that a successful self-made millionaire like McMahon doesn't know, I'm forced to conclude that he just doesn't care. 2.Masters doesn't have the Unbroken Superhold anymore (that would be Cena's sloppy STF), he can neither talk nor wrestle, and managed to get himself hooked on both pain pills and hormones at a startlingly young age, so exactly how/why would they push him?

Bam's injury was supposedly legit. But I don't blame them for any of this. In fact, let's turn it around: let's say the WWE was supposed to send, say, Cena, Lashley, Khali, Shawn Michaels, and HHH to make some kind of special appearance on Jackass. Well, HHH rips a quad, and Michaels suddenly decides he ain't going either. Then out of nowhere Chris Pontius up and murders some people and then kills himself, just a few weeks prior to the scheduled appearance. If you were Cena, Lashley, or Khali, would there be any chance in hell you'd want to be on that show?

They're not gonna make a 3+ hour movie for the last book, the studio's won't allow it. This ain't LOTR with a mostly adult fanbase, they're movies mostly aimed towards children. A lot will be cut out, no matter what, just like it was with the GoP movie.

Did you guys completely forget Dobby being all over the Chamber of Secrets movie?
-
He's obviously got the skills and ability, they don't just hand out those awards for nothing. Personally, I think it's a cross between WWE's insistence on the Main Event Heavyweight Style and the fact that he's put on at least fifty pounds of muscle since his amateur days.

Considering they had no money whatsoever to spend on special effects, what could they have done to show the witch? Dress up some old woman in cheap makeup? They would've been laughed out of town. Although, thinking back, does anyone else remember the rumors that the filmmakers had supposedly filmed alternate endings to BWP? I don't remember the DVD commentary saying anything about it, but, IMDB: And looking this up reminded me of the movie's early promotional campaign, like how the three actors were listed as "missing, presumed dead" on imdb. Fuckin' brilliant, and ended up in the most profitable movie of all time. In fact, that reminds me of something on-topic. I didn't particularly like Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows, but every single scene with that dumbass redneck sherriff just killed the movie past the point of no return for me.
-
Lots of people hate that movie. I can understand why, even though I completely disagree with them. But, why like most of it and just hate the ending? I thought it was appropriate to what they were trying to do. The only bad bit was that you had to remember that one random line of dialogue about the killer forcing the kids to stand turned around in the corner.

Chris Benoit Dead - Toxicology results released
Jingus replied to Human Fly's topic in The WWE Folder
...why? In the words of Patton Oswald, "What the fuck, it's a roast!" They're supposed to be as mean and offensive as humanly possible. They didn't edit out Gilbert Gottfried making a 9/11 joke just before his infamous aristocrats spiel at the Hefner roast. -
None of the above. I'd rather watch X-Play, read EGM, or just download the Angry Nintendo Nerd.

Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are making a movie together
Jingus replied to UZI Suicide's topic in Television & Film
Well, let's check IMDB: Pacino: does his share of repetitive crap (The Recruit) but still tries to star in different types of roles and movies (Insomnia, Angels in America, The Merchant of Venice). De Niro: hasn't had a great role since 1997. Constantly takes stupid comedies, forgettable thrillers, children's movies, and no-name foreign films. Has been killing his own reputation for years now. But, considering that this is their first "real" movie together (the three minutes of combined footage in Heat doesn't really count), it's still got a little attraction. -
Me? Anyone else who doesn't like to watch people in pain?

Global warming is like Some Puerto Rican Guy for weather. Here in Texas, we've been getting amazing amounts of rainfall, it's been storming every other day. Meanwhile, in my old home of Tennessee, they've been undergoing a horrible drought. Which one did global warming cause? Or can it magically do both?

So everyone was surprised that Adonis doing an over-the-top stereotypical flaming faggot evil heel gimmick didn't get over in SAN FRANCISCO?

I Put My Finger on Why WCW Seemed So Intolerable At Times
Jingus replied to zappafrank's topic in General Wrestling
Oh yeah, incompetnet/apathetic announcers are the fucking worst. I get more upset about this than most people cuz I spent five years doing play-by-play in the indies. Come on, guys, announcing isn't THAT hard. You just gotta remember to get over your checklist of things: 1. Tell the audience WHY a babyface is good and a heel is bad 2. Remind people when/where the live events are 3. Call the moves so people know what they are 4. Help tell the story of the psychology of the match; remind us of prior history between these wrestlers and such 5. Try to cover up or explain blown spots or fuckups 6. Do NOT, under any circumstances, spend the entire time talking about the main event or how cool your company is. (ROH was real bad about that when Sapolsky was the lead announcer.) -
I dunno, every time a large amount of money is mentioned in a wrestling storyline it completely kills my sense of disbelief. Like, every fan in the audience knows that none of those guys are actually gonna be paid ten grand. It's a false and arbitrary way to drum up excitement for a match, since it's based on something you'll never actually see the results of. Someone who wins this match isn't gonna get a title shot down the road, or get beaten down by the heels, or whatever; they're just gonna go apeshit over getting handed a big briefcase full of "money" and it'll never be mentioned in storylines again.

It's $20 in the USA I think, so isn't an exchange rate of $25 Canadian approximately correct?
-
Just out of curiosity, why the hell would they rig the raffle? To make a few more dollars. The winner is usually someone the promoter knows, who'll give them the prize back after the show. They also raffle off stupid & degrading shit like a chance to whip the heel manager. Anytime you're at a show and they do a raffle, just know that it's an automatic sign that this promotion cares more about taking your money than they do about putting on a good show.

Because he's rich, gets to do whatever he wants, including physically attacking his own parents, and gets put on TV because of it. That's like the world's greatest fantasy for your average skateboard punk.

When should John Cena Drop the Belt?
Jingus replied to JaMarcus Russell's #1 Caucasian Fan's topic in The WWE Folder
This year? What about that carry job at the Rumble? Unlike Cena, Kennedy didn't have an incredibly strong and agile Samoan who seems to feel no pain as his opponent; instead, he was stuck with the giant crash test dummy known as Batista. And STILL put on a performance so strong, he actually had the crowd cheering for him. Kennedy is an infinitely better bumper than Cena, uses a lot more moves and executes them crisper, and I'd even argue that he's a better talker (I always thought Cena was overrated on the mike, and Kennedy's whole gimmick just makes me crack up). And you used the word "awesome" describing Cena's wrestling, you DID say it, don't accuse me of putting words in your mouth that're already there. -
When should John Cena Drop the Belt?
Jingus replied to JaMarcus Russell's #1 Caucasian Fan's topic in The WWE Folder
Are you kidding? Cena is an "awesome" worker, I disagree enough with that, but to actually say that Kennedy sucks? Wow. -
Seriously? Jesus. That's like a combination of those car insurance commercials that have wrecks happen out of nowhere, and WCW the entire month after Sid broke his leg. Yet another reason not to watch MTV.
