  1. Oops, wrong thread. Um You Suck (that's for anyone)
  2. On Saturday, January 31st the UFC has a PPV called "Supernatural" (UFC 46). This card looks AMAZING. If you want to start anywhere, with little effort applied, start here.
  3. Did you find the music catchy-as-fuck as well? RRR: Loves Flying Knees
  4. I like Peter Aerts HL on Sherdog over Hoosts'. K-1 highlight reels make you go "Ooooh SHEEET!" a lot more than the MMA ones...
  5. The highlights are down? Hmm, that's what you get when you haven't been there in a month (School has high speed internet, home has slug) I still wanna know where you got that Remy Gif from...
  6. A lot of the files are around 60 mbs. You'd be better off dl'ing some from Sherdog.com - they are of high quality, but the variety isn't nearly as good. Actually, yeah, go to www.sherdog.com and to their videos section.
  7. He used to host All-American Wrestling; I remember they aired a show right after WM 7 that actually talked about WM 7 - which was generally unheard of...
  8. Is that a good source for MMA info, or does it at least have some other good vids? It's the best MMA-oriented MB that I've been to (though that's not really saying much - been to about 10-or-so). The Highlight reels are the main attraction and if you have a fast internet connection you're in heaven.
  9. Well, that would make sense. ... I guess.
  10. Seriously, how hard is it to find booze and/or pizza? In any city worth it's salt, there'd be a dozen places to find both in a square mile.
  11. I'm still Alive. HA! Mindless zombies don't dance like that!! I think it's perfectly clear that they are being moved by the rhythm - slaves to the music, if you will - so really, their minds aren't being used at all, it's reactionary, instinctive...
  12. *sigh* They are zombies; if you can tell me of any time zombies weren't mindless and violent, I'd like to know.
  13. See! I actually read that just to find out what it said - I don't give a shit about it, but I still read it. It _w_o_r_k_s_
  14. I believe the official mistaken name for Bret Hart is "Bret 'Hitman' Clarke"
  15. Yes, yes I have a big problem with that. These zombie horses need to be stopped before they destroy us all. First it's your friend, then it's you, then it's me. *pulls out shotgun* ... and that ain't gonna happen. *Puts on demin jacket* *Generic pseudo-porn Rock Music Plays* *Walks outside, in slow motion, to see various horses stomping people to death.* *A young, greased-up, Emilio Estevez appears out of nowhere on the back of a large tractor trailer... a Comet appears hanging overhead in the earths atmosphere* *Yeardley Smith cries*
  16. Whether you liked the show or not, you can't exactly say that they 'gave' you 'nothing'. There's a TON of stuff here to grab ahold of. As for the main story, there isn't really much of one... and that's the way it's supposed to be. It's not like Angel or Buffy where there's this Big Bad there all the time and giving them an objective; the objective is just to keep the ship in the sky. The subplots are where the real action is: Mal and Inara's relationship, Simon and River, Jaynes inevitable betrayal, Wash and Zoe's marriage, Simon and Jaynes feud, the various interactions with the Alliance and Reavers, Simon and Kaylee, Jayne and Kaylee, Book and just about everyone, Mal and Zoe - there's a ton of stuff to get into. I think the main "hook", at least for me, is to find out what they did to River and why. In other news, I just watched "War Stories" - which is perhaps my favourite episode - with the Commentary on... *drools*... Nathan Fillion IS GOD. Alan Tudyk is VERY CLOSE. Best commentary yet (I still have 2 more to go, and that last one is the "Objects in Space".. *lighting* *thunder* duhduhduh!). Why was this show cancelled again?
  17. A dead horse is beating your friend?
  18. Canadians don't so much say "aboot" as they do "aboat". *"The more you know" flashes on screen again*
  19. Well, Chuck Palumbo has nice punches; Johnny the Bull is strong and agile; and Guido can mat it up pretty well... so liking the FBI isn't that wrong. But as a group, they haven't, like, done anything and they keep anchoring on to Benoit, so in a way, it is. So yeah, your opinion's worth fluctuates alot on the Opinion Market - kinda like Gasoline. One day it's 59.9, the next it's 72.5... Canadian.
  20. I could have sworn 2003 was the year of the Goldfish. You know, completely useless things being put up for show just cause they're Goldfish... Kinda like the McMahons.
  21. Are you trying to say that Benoit must win the rumble? Cause I didn't quite get that... I enjoy your style of review; I generally just read the commercial-break-comments, and I enjoy those. Kudos.
  22. So how long does it take for a gimmick poster named "wit" to come along at the right time with a clever remark??
  23. kidman used a swinging neckbreaker xfactor thingie for a period of time.
  24. That whole highlight reel (found at ironlife.com) is fantastic.
  25. **spoilers within** Serenity "Serenity is a place that once you're in, you never leave" - Gina Torres, Firefly These are the words that Zoe says to Simon in a deleted scene found on the DVD. It's a shame that scene was taken out of the original episode since it sheds so much light into the name of the ship and the mindstate of Malcolm Reynolds. The episode begins in the midst of a battle - the Battle for Serenity valley, infact. Sgt. Malcolm Reynolds is giving his ever-shrinking numbers of troops orders as well as trying to inspire them to keep fighting, keep living, keep going on. He tells them that back-up is on its way, and that if they hold on that much longer, everything is going to be alright. He kisses his cross before he heads off from the bunker - that faith gets tested, and destroyed, when he finds out that no support will be given. In that deleted scene mentioned above, Zoe tells Simon that the Independents (her side) and the Alliance made a peace treaty and left both sides in that valley for a week before coming down to save them. What was once a squad of 2000 was widdled down to 150, all under the command of Sgt. Reynolds. (This is from memory, if I am wrong on a few numbers, correct them ). On will alone, Mal and Zoe made it. "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming" - Ellen Degeneres, Finding Nemo That is what Mal is doing. He keeps fighting, he keeps moving. He is a force. As long as his ship keeps flight, he is alive. His crew members are attracted to that strength, that force. They get power from it. I could write a novel on Mal, his character has that many complexities. He is good, he is bad, he is funny, he is tortured, he wants love, he doesn't want complications - and what is love but one, giant, complication? He is noble, he is a coward, he always does the right thing, he is a criminal. He is, what Kris Kristofferson would say, is a "walking contradiction". Why is it so important to know Mal? Well, he's the hero. If you can't like Mal, you can't like Firefly. If you don't get Mal, you don't get Firefly. Mal is lots of things, as is this show. And that's what "Serenity" is; lots of things. In 2 hours (ahem, 88 minutes), we are introduced to a whole new UNIVERSE. A universe where prostitution is not only the oldest profession, but a respected one as well. Where the last two superpowers left are the US and China; meaning people speak both languages and the Alliance flag is a merging of the Red and White stripes and the Yellow Stars. Where various planets and moons are terriformed and the Government leaves the colonists to their own devices - hence the Western Motif. This is most interestingly shown in the payment Shepard Book gives for passage on the ship; Strawberries (as well as other produce). Money is still exchanged, but bartering is just as popular. Why care about gold when you are starving? Wouldn't you rather have food (or in this case, a foodbar)? I think the biggest selling point was the humour. Wash playing with the dinosaurs was so much genius it was genious. "And I shall call this land... "THIS LAND". "She's dead" *slow motion running, Book sadly leaves room, Kaylee's hand falling, Kaylee waving* "He's psychotic" "I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man". Shooting the horse, shooting the cop, both so fucking practical. All these moments had me on the floor. This show is funnier than 99% of the comedies I've seen, legit. Whedon knows Funny, and Funny knows Whedon. Whedon also knows booking. In his commentary, he notes about the Reavers and Jaynes fear of them, "When the big tough bad guy is scared of them, then you should be". The Reavers scare me, but they scare me in the way that I want to be scared and I want to see more of them, and for me, that rarely ever happens. Review Continued later
