You don't understand how Ultimo "I-keep-getting-pops-despite-not-being-in-a-storyline-ever" Dragon doesn't have anything to do in the WWE?? ... Yeah, me either.

Let's just put it this way: If you carry a flag that is not American (or, if that American flag is upside down *burn!*), you are bad.

*Holds up sign* Colbert for God.

Hmm, I see your point. I have been silenced.

I didn't know football was xenophobia-in-action.. wait... *thinks about "football" and the rest of the world* You are SO right.

House Show attendance is crumbling. That's probably the biggest disadvantage of the split - people don't want to go out and pay to see half the stars; especially if they aren't going to be on camera.

Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Frodo going *that far* with the ring is heroic enough - NO ONE could have done it. They would have been possessed by the ring in like 5 minutes tops. This is all established in Fellowship where the ring corrupts Galadrial, Boromir, to-an-extent Gandalf (he turns away from it), Bilbo, Isildur, etc. Frodo never triumphed over the ring - in War there never are *Winners*, only losers. That's the message Tolkien was making. Jackson didn't want to take that _all_the_way_ to where the Shire got burned down; so he just had Frodo 'lose his innocence' while Sam & Co. were able to go back to their lives.

Hmm, do the people (person) who says Dragon going maskless is a good thing - did you think Dragon would have gotten a big push when he first debuted??? Putting your faith in Vince McMahon to do the right thing for Dragon - it's just stupid.

Who you callin a bimbo?!

Hey Rock, you hear what this guy is sayin? Yeah, is Austin really more popular than both of us? No way bruther, ain't no way that Texan is bigger and better and badder than HOLLYWOOD dude! Yeah, I don't recall Austin getting the press I do... And I don't see Austin making billions of dollars at the box office like us... YEAH, exactly. More recognizable than the Rock, HA, don't make me laugh... I could pop that crowd 10 times higher than old Baldy could, bruther.

"West is the best color guy in the biz. " 'Squeeze me? I don't watch TNA often, but I don't give a shit - Don West sucks and turns me off the product. They have Scott Hudson, right? The Hud is like a buhzillion times better.. (GOODNIGHT!) "OH MY GOD MIKE, DID YOU JUST *SEE* THAT!!" "Yes Don, it was an impressive armdrag takedown by AJ Styles" "THAT WAS SO AMAZING MIKE! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I HAVE NEVER SEEN A THING LIKE THAT BEFORE IN MY LIFE!"

Yeah, exactly, HELLO! Season 2!! *folds arms, smug grin and acts like he knew all along*

And if they do show Austin, they must be the dumbest company on the planet. Even if they don't, they still get the award...

Hello, Season Two! In the dark on that one... wuh??

"Normal Again" fucking sucked. Was there any bigger way of saying "Hey, you're watching a TV show" than that??? I don't need to be reminded of it; it totally kills suspension of disbelief.. PLUS THEY COPIED STAR TREK!

TheDames... that's who... DON'T YOU SEE?!?! DON'T YOU SEE IT?!?!?! IT'S 1984!!!! IT'S BIG BROTHER!! Bit by bit our liberties are being taken away and our freedoms are being limited by this authoritarian regime! Next they will be telling you where to post and how to post and eventually they will be telling your WHAT to post... *realizes that the first 2 things have already happened* NOOOOO! YOU BASTARDS! YOU BASTARDS! YOU DAMN DIRTY MODS! IT WAS EARTH ALL ALONG!

Pfft, they won't listen. Dames has gone mad with power - the guy's ego is getting WAY out of hand. He'll just laugh and stick more stuff at the top just to spite you. WHEN WILL THE MADNESS STOP! POOR MOLE!

Half the show will just be random soldiers giving shout-outs and the wrestlers mugging the camera to "show their support"... it's going to be torture... if they didn't have Eddie vs. Benoit, I'd avoid it like the plague... bastards.

Jobbing Benoit because he is Canadian... classy.

FUCK champion Cordy - sometimes some characters don't need that sort of development. FUCK Character Development. In other news, I watched a bit of that Buffy Season 6 eps. where she goes in and out of a mental instititution.... that episode sucks. I couldn't watch it all. I didn't like it when Ds9 did it, and it was actually done worse here.

Who was that Zach Gowen fellow, and what did he do with Mr. America?

...you loose all credibility to me in whatever you say from that moment on, I'm sorry to say. Ah yes, because I desperately want to have credibility in the eyes of someone who has compared the ending of ROTK to A.I. Say it with me now, your opinion _s_u_c_k_s_. It's the most childish way to go forth with any sort of conversation or discussion about anything, and it wont get you anywhere... Nah, I'd say the most childish is covering your ears (in this case 'eyes') and going 'lalalalalallalala I'm not listening! lalalalalala! I can't hear you! lalalalalalalala you're childish! lalalalalalla" and thus putting oneself in a lil bubble where ones precious opinion can't be harmed... kinda like what you're doing now. at least not with me. I'm not going to go down to your level and say that your opinion on anything is wrong, Which, in this case, it is. that you MUST believe like me, Never said that. and stoop to insults and basic bullshit. Which you have... or do you think "childish" is completely innocent because it doesn't start with an "f" or a "s" or in this case a big, giant "T". As for bullshit, c'mon, you take the cake here Dh. As said before, once you can grow up and stop acting like a child, then I'll continue whatever there is to discuss. Or you could, oh I dunno, buck up and a wipe your nose and actually validate your opinion rather than going off and, you know, "lalalalala". Seeing how it's all opinion though, there really isn't much more to say. Sure there is. I said most of it, but there still is stuff left to say. You still haven't even come close to explaining the similarity between A.I. and ROTK, or building a case against the "long" ending other than "it ruined the flow" which, btw, is a tad worthless considering the flow and pace from the beginning in the boat scene was established as being "slow" and the endings did nothing to take away from that... the whole movie was "slow", even in the "tense" battle scenes. You liked it, I didn't, big fucking deal. Grow up and learn to realize that not everyone gives a shit about whatever it is as you do. You know Downhome, I don't think I can take discussing the matter with someone who tells me what to do, calls me names, and can't handle the fact that someone holds a different opinion than they do... It's very distressing... I don't... I don't... I don't think I can handle it... I'm sorry guys, I tried... I just can't go through with it. He's swearing at me.... *looks for someone to hold him* RRR: Can "Deal" with someone having a different opinion than him. Has no problem with Dr. Tom not liking the opening... No problem in Downhome not liking the ending. However, when you don't like it because it "ruins the flow" "goes on and on and on" "should have been shorter" and "was a lot like A.I.", your reasons for not liking it - and therefore "opinion formed" - SUCK, and I'm going to tell you it. RRR: See's someone of an opinion based on irrational thought, feels the need to clearify - and to an extent - make fun of. DH: Despite saying he won't participate in a dicussion with me, still replies - and not to the actual discussion. RRR: Did not steal wench from LOTC...

Smackdown actually has adequate announcing, so why would you ship all the good talent off to Raw for JR to butcher and King to ignore?

Yeah, but when anyone thinks of Tara Reid do they really think, "OH! The female from that great Van Wilder movie!" YES... then it's "that chick from the Pie fucker movie." then it's "the chick from the Josie and the Pussycats movie".

Kinda funny how you contrasted "childish" with that lil spiel there; not to mention your inability to have a discussion without calling someone 'childish' - you fucking tool. Me, I won't bother sticking my nose up in the air and give a pretense that I'm better than that when I'm clearly doing it too (OMG I'M TALKINGABOUTYOU!BiggestHYPOCRITE!ontheboardLOLERZ!~). The ending(s) in ROTK were necessary and integral to the story Tolkein (and Jackson) were telling. Tolkein was a WWI vet who knew the high cost of war - one of the major cost of war is the loss of innocence. That you can "never go home" again. In the book, this was symbolized by the destruction of the shire - in the film, this was symbolized by Frodo leaving on the ships (also in the books; I can understandibly see why Jackson left the shire untouched in the film). The multiple endings were to give this closure to all the characters - and ultimately to the viewer - but not to Frodo (who couldn't go home). The first ending had Frodo in bed while the fellowship came together after having been broken in the first film. "Has it really been that long?". The crowning of the king and the acceptance and appreciation of the Hobbits by man - the 4 stood there as heros. In the bar with just the 4 heros and Sam - the true hero - making his move on Rosey and being able to return to the life he left never having carried the burden. This is where we begin to realize that Frodo may not be the same as the others - that while they have "gotten over it" Frodo hasn't. In the next "ending" with Frodo writing his story we come to fully understand this and it also says that Sam is the Mayor and transitions into Bilbo and going to the ships. The ships and the long good bye, the significance of which I've explained, very important to the story crafted. This is probably where, in formulaic hollywood terms, the "ending" would have been - right after the triumphant destruction of the ring and maybe a quickie in the shire. No need to actually do the crowning of the king or Sam working the courage to ask out Rosie - cause those are just stupid lil things that no one needs to see cause really, the whole series is just about a ring - ya know? And the actual ending being Sam and family moving back into their home? FORGET ABOUT IT! We should have seen Gollum come back! YEAH! GOLLUM! And, and and, maybe he could come back with ALIENS FROM THE FUTURE WHO WANT TO STUDY HOBBITS! YEAH! And then they CLONE Frodo and the RING! but the Ring and Frodo can only last a day and Gollum gets sad but he's still happy seeing the ring again, if only for a day. That's really what should have happened. It would have flowed better... ... no wait, that would be stupid and hmm... actually like A.I. rather than, you know, not being anything like A.I. - which the actual ending to ROTK was... nothing like A.I., that is. The ending with David getting one day with his mommy and that moment of happiness he searched for - which was poignant and heartfelt - because of Aliens and their futuristic technology - which was needless and completely stupid - in A.I. was because Speilberg had no idea how to effectively end it. "Well, we have to have him get his mother back, but how can we do it without him actually getting his mother back... hmm... ah yes, FUTURISTIC ALIENS!". Jackson knew how to effectively end it, and THANK GOD it wasn't with a character ephiphany followed by a kiss. That wouldn't have done the story and characters justice. "You know what Sam?" "What is it Mr. Frodo" "I don't think I could ever go back to the shire again" "Oh, well that sucks. I going to marry my sweethart and become mayor" "That's grand Sam, but I -again- cannot. The ring, it will forever be with me, even after it's gone" "That's a true shame it is Mr Frodo." "Yep, isn't that right Merry?" "Oh yeah, it is Pippen... wanna go steal some pumpkins?" "You betcha! Bye Frodo!" "Bye Frodo" "Bye guys" *Aragon shows up as King* "Hey, look at me. I'm the, you know, king" "Wow, you are." "Yeah, and here's my elfish wench" "Hey guys" "Hey" "Hey" ... Nah, this is just TOO LONG - it needs to be cut down some more... "I can't believe it's over" "It's not over, not for me, it will never be over... I must go on the boats out to the sea with the elfs and never come back because I can't come back - that life is not for me..." "No Mr Frodo, please don't go" *Aragon with a crown and Arwen and Merry, Pippen, and Rosie w/ child look on in tears* "I have to, good bye" *kiss* (together) "Good bye" *Sails away* "The end" ... that's better. That really is satisfying - nothing left unsaid there. I feel that after watching 9 hours of this story unfold, that this 30 second ending is a fitting conclusion to this epic tale. Yep, I really got the effect the journey had on the characters...
