I loved the whole atmosphere around the WM4 tournament. Survivor Series 98 would go on to sour me to tournaments.

good point!

well, by that I mean Hogan was in Giant Killer mode at that point in his career and probably felt a match with the much smaller DiBiase wouldn't draw well. Who knows?

I actually liked Hostage to, but super killer was just too much for me...I mean, he was taking guys out Navy SEAL style!

Savage was beyond Honky and the IC title at that point. He was ready for the world championship run...and this way, Hogan doesn't have to do the job. Also, I would imagine Hogan felt he was too far above DiBiase to do a PPV level match with him. SNME? Sure. Not a PPV, though.

SOMETHING U'LL NEVA TOUCH AMIRITE DOODS??? LOLZ

The pages weren't sticky, so I wouldn't really know. It was the first and only time I've bought porn magazines.

horrible news!

Matt, I would assume you're looking for titles like Super Mario World, Super Metroid, Zelda 3, etc.? I know those are all ESA protected. I'll try to remember to hook you up when I get home today...shoot me a PM if I aven't done it by tomorrow. Tell me what you need and I'll see if I have it.

I don't HATE Marlon Wayans, but that casting is REALLY bugging me right now. I don't know why, it just does. Ah well, what am I expecting? Saving Private Ryan? This will be on par with movies like Armageddon. Lots of explosions and special effects, plenty of overly-macho cliched one liners and horrible overacting.

maybe they felt Steamboat/Savage would overshadow anything else they do and decided they better not go with it? Also, it would be face/face and you know how gunshy they were about doing that sorta thing back then.

As Hawk explained, Rey was very over prior to the whole Eddie deal...are we not watching the same programming?

Somehow the fraud will come to light and reporter guy will get burned, reputation smashed to hell...but McNulty may sneak by, like he always does.

I read the majority of them, stopped rigth after the war in Trucial Abysma. One memorable moment was when Dusty carried his friend all the way back to camp only to find it he had died along the way.

I watched it today, this is going to end up being bad bad bad for either McNulty or the reporter.

I haven't seen it, I'll take your word for it.

That's too bad, Ripley's theme is some of the best video game music I've ever heard.

it saysLevitt is playing a guy named "Rex"...now I've heard Duke has a buddy in the film named Rex. What are the chances "Rex" ends up being exposed as CC?

I agree...it's time to give the Japs what for. They could start the game with you as a naval officer during the Pearl Harbor attack...tell me that wouldn't be super-intense. If they can make D-Day intense on COD2, imagine what Pearl Harbor could be like.

when i think of that description for CC, I keep picturing Mr. Big from Police Academy 6.

I don't know, personally I enjoyed the bombing mission in COD4...I was thinking somemthing along those lines. There's no WAY they make a game where we can play as Charlie.

Hollywood is all about not putting the USA above all else, so the change doesn't surprise me at all. Can't have the US looking all big and bad, now...still doesn't make it any less annoying.

The problem is that once Hardy wins the belt, it'll be Rey Mysterio reign 2.0...however, just like Rey, they can no longer deny his overness and have to pull the trigger sooner or later.

Well, they're going for the "team made up of international operatives" approach as opposed to "Real American Hero", so casting Adewale makes sense. Since Heavy Duty is a little known Joe, other than knowing he's black, I can see why they went with that role instead. Casting him as Roadblock would have been absolutely unacceptable and I think the producers realized it.

Triple H vs. Big Show (working for Regal) Ric Flair vs. HBK as rumored Hardy vs. Orton vs. Cena with Hardy getting the Benoit WM20 treatment.
