    That's the biggest Raw main event since Kevin Nash, Big Show, X-Pac, Chris Benoit & Eddie Guerrero vs. Booker T, Goldust, Bubba Ray Dudley, Spike Dudley & Rob Van Dam.  And we all know how well THAT turned out.

     

    I thought last year's 8 man tag match offering of Benjamin, Foley, Shawn and Benoit Vs Evolution was "bigger"...

     

    I'd also say the Benoit/HBK and Benoit/HHH Iron man matches were "bigger"

     

    Given the example of "big" I cited, I thought it was obvious I was using "big" as a euphemism for "shitty clusterfuck". The second sentence made the fact that I was joking a pretty dead givaway.

    Interesting movie.  It was the first film I recall that actually made an attempt to celebrate the 1970s, much the way "American Graphitti" celebrated the early 1960s.

     

    I wonder...has the quintessential 1980s nostalgia movie been made yet?  If so, what would it be?

     

     

    Fast Times at Ridgemont High, as far as Highschool 80's Life.

    No.

     

    That was actually made in the year in which it takes place.

(Twelve years later, of course, people are sick of hearing about the 70s; witness the total lack of interest in last summer's "Lords of Dogtown".)

    The archtype for 50% of all the current sitcoms (Will & Grace being the archtype for the other 50%)

     

    So which "archetype" does AD fit into?

     

    I dunno, what's archtype/archetype mean? And what's AD stand for?

    Archetype: An original model or type after which other similar things are patterned.

     

    AD: "Arrested Develpment", a Fox sitcom with a pretty vocal cult following.

     

    AD is probably best categorized as a prototype from which future shows will model themselves after.

     

    "Everybody Loves Raymond" is basically a more mature version of "Home Improvement", which itself was a rip-off of "the Cosby Show"; while "Will and Grace" is basically a homosexual version of "Friends," which itself was a Generation X rip-off of "Seinfeld."
