  1. I think movie channels are obsolete in the age of DVD and Netflix type services. HBO at least has some pretty interesting original shows, but I can't imagine paying that hefty of a price tag for them, considering how infrequently new epsisodes are made. Especially when I can just wait a few months and watch the whole season on rented DVDs.


  2. Inevitable question...

     

    Not counting people who won the WCW title after WCW was bought by WWF, which wrestlers besides Booker T have carried world titles in both WCW and WWE/F?

     

    Flair

    Hogan

    Randy Savage

    Kevin Nash

    Bret Hart

    Big Show

    Goldberg

    Benoit

     

    who else?

    EDIT- Oh, not counting after the buy out. Add Sid.

    Can't beleive I forgot Sid.

     

    Thanks.


  3. Is there a documentary section to the DVD or is it just a bunch of matches. As if there is a documentary, they might go over all the other title changes that have happened and other important matches for the title

    Well, if you had read the paragraph before the match listing...

     

    "The DVD set will include a comprehensive timeline with multimedia highlights from every title change."

     

    I'm really sure that answers the question, since I have no idea what a "a comprehensive timeline with multimedia highlights" is.


  4. Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs. Jamie Noble & Kid Kash open the show. Kendrick pinned Kash after a sunset flip off the top rope. Kash tried to block it but London dropkicked him. Good opener.

     

    In the surreal moment of the night, Teddy Long said that Bobby Lashley couldn't wrestle because of an elevated liver enzyme count. Lashley came out, all suited up, and said he wanted to wrestle and that there was nothing wrong with him. Long told him he'd like for him to wrestle but it's for everyone's best interests. Fans of course booed this.

     

    Finlay wanted to win by forfeit but Long ordered Finlay vs. Regal for the U.S. title which is up now.

     

    Sorry for the computer problems. Finlay won after the Mini stole Regal's boot, gave it to Finlay and he hit Regal for the pin. Crowd was chanting "boring" when they weren't quiet. Stiff hard hitting match but crowd wasn't into it at all. Too much comedy and midget interference so it wasn't nearly the match they could have had.

     

    Gregory Helms b Matt Hardy with a schoolboy holding the tights. Good match, although crowd wasn't into it until the finish with lots of good near falls.

     

    Big Show and Khali attacked Undertaker backstage. It was a weak attack. Long ordered Show to face Undertaker and booted Khali out. Weak.

     

    Undertaker vs. Show in the Punjabi cage is up now. It's two bamboo stick cages. Cool looking structure. There is a cage around the ring and a 20 foot cage around that one on the floor. You have to escape both cages to win. The inside cage has doors but the outside cage doesn't have doors. They went 20:00 of a horrible match with a weak finish. Undertaker did a cross body from the first cage, not high on it, but more middle rope level, into show and the second cage simply opened. I think the idea was the impact was so much it crashed through the door, but it was so weak and the cage opened up anyway. Both guys juiced and that was about it. The only thing I kept thinking as bad as this was, is how they possibly could have even tried this match with Khali. They both went through the cage and ruled Undertaker as the winner. JBL had to go on and on here saying that this proved Undertaker was back.

     

    Booker & Sharmell are kissing since Booker is attempting to become king of the world.

     

    Bra & panties match is up now. Rules were the first woman to get stripped to the bra & panties, the one who strips wins. Kristal got stripped as Jillian held her and Ashley pulled her small t-shirt off. Then Jillian & Ashley took the others' skirt off. Michelle McCool was wearing two skirts so nobody got to see her bra or panties. Crowd was probably less into this than any bra and panties match ever. Just seemed like nobody cared about the four personalities involved and it was just faceless strippers rolling around in mud.

     

    Batista vs. Kennedy is up now. Kennedy bled like a pig. The first time was from being run into the steps right away and if he bladed, he sure hid it well because it didn't look like it. Later he went at 100 miles per hour into the post, shoulder first, but came up just drenched in blood. Batista started choking him with his boot and was DQ'd. Post-match saw Batista use three spinebusters and a Batista bomb and Kennedy was left laying covered in blood.

     

    Mysterio vs. Booker for the title is up next. Good match, but nothing special. Nick Patrick was bumped and Rey did the frog splash but no ref. Booker went for a chair shot but Rey ducked and dropkicked the chair into his face. Chavo ran in and hit Rey with a chair and Booker covered Rey for the pin and the title. Good chair shot. So Booker is now the king of the world.

  5. Okay, I remember that Keegstra case from Law class.

     

    The whole thing stemmed from a very Anti-semitic teacher who tried to deny the holocaust to his students and other such nonsense. The Supreme Court's decision was essentially to make sure that students aren't taught by whackjobs and the like. You wanna say that shit in private? You will be *free* to use whatever *speech* you want.

     

    So you support his right to teach his kids why the Jews are bad? And YOU are a teacher too? Wonderful.

     

    I don't normally side with Jerk, but you really are an idiot.


  6. That was the worst joke I think I've ever read. What the hell's wrong with you?

     

    I was ignored by my parents as a child, and basically use the internet to make up for it by getting attention for myself (negative or positive) from complete strangers.

    He's not kidding, is he?


  7. I just picked up the Season 2 JL DVD set.

     

    Wow...

     

    Not just the eps, which are very good from what I've seen. But "wow" in that I somehow managed to miss damn near the entire 2nd season of this show. I mean, out of the eps listed I can remember seeing Starcrossed, and that's about it.

     

    It's clear to me why the crew isn't so proud of Season 1--this clearly blows it away.

     

    And I still haven't seen some eps of Season 1. I think this is all due to CN's changing of its time plus my college classes then.

    Boomerang is now showing S1 and S2 episodes every night at 11pm eastern.


  8. POTC had a better taste for the fans, Superman was yanked around forever and casual movie goers just didn't find Superman all that interesting because of that and it just plain looked boring and the reviews have cemented those sentiments.

     

    I doubt that since the movie has made $141 million in 10 days, and has had mostly favorable reviews. The fact that its less popular than "Pirates of the Caribean" doesn't mean that casual movie goers didn't want to see "Superman Returns," it just means that more casual movie goers wanted to see "Pirates of the Caribean". I'm sure a lot of people saw both movies.


  9. Anyway, I'm really hoping for Mark Warner to run for President, he's what the party needs now. I wouldn't mind seeing John Edwards run again either, he shouldn't have run in 2004 and instead spent all of the time building his Senate resume. I get a real Kennedy vibe from John Edwards.

    God, you really jack it to handsome Democrats! Their sunny optimism and high rankings from People magazine are gonna TAKE BACK OUR WHITE HOUSE!

     

    What do Kennedy and Edwards have in common beyond party affiliation and a killer smile? Edwards built himself up from practically nothing to become a successful litigator and Senator, whose political views have been shaped by his own experiences. JFK was born into his dad's bootlegging fortune, and is a liberal because that's what you do when you're a paternalistic New Englander.

    And Edwards was never almost killed when the Japanese sunk his PT boat and he had to swim for miles to safety with an injured crewman on his back.

    Just saying.


  10. Damn after reading that it makes me wonder how they were able to return to regular Superman and make everything normal again(well more normal than that)?

    And was that idiot Peters still attached?

    I finally got my copy of "Look Up in the Sky" from amazon.com today. It was interesting to watch Jon Peters admit he didn't know what he was doing through most of the 1990s trying to get a new Superman movie made.


  11. And as for a third party candidate, no, not really. The only time there's a really significant third party is when there's a split within one of the existing parties (i.e. Perot leaving the Republicans, TR leaving the... Republicans, etc.)

    John Anderson in 1980 would be a better example than Mr. Perot. Ross Perot didn't leave the Republican Party, because you can't leave something you were never a part of.

     

    Some people, I think, assumed Perot was a Republican because he was (a) a rich business man, and (b) was from the south. Look at his platform, though. He was for radical tax increases, heavy protectionism, increased government involvement in economy, and he was pro-choice. Many of Perot's supporters fit a stereotypical demographic profile of typical Republican voters, but that's pretty much where the similarities begin and end. Polling done during the 1992 presidential campaign show that he drew almost equally from both parties.


  12. I forget where I read it, but I heard Scarlett wanted to be topless in the love scene in the Island and Michael Bay talked her out of it. If that doesn't make him "the suck", I don't know what does.

     

    From what I remember she was bitching about the bra she had to wear being really uncomfortable and she'd rather do the scene nude but Bay told her it's PG-13 so she couldn't.

    :angry:


  13. I thought of some good for

    Superman's son

    if the next movie were to have Brainiac in it.

     

    Ala Star Trek III, Brainiac kills him. Thus enraging Superman and bringing him to get revenge.

     

    But that's just my view on the whole thing.

     

    "You cyborg bastard, you killed my son!"


  14. How does Hugh Laurie not get a nomination, but House gets Best Drama. I mean...the guy is House!

     

    Yeah, they nominate goddamn Martin Sheen but not Hugh Laurie?

     

    Fuck this list. Fuck with an AIDS-infested cock.

    I'm kind of scratching my head about that myself. Sheen was barely even on the West Wing this year. If there's actually even a leading actor on that show, its Bradley Whitford. The show has always revolved around the Josh Lyman character as much as it did Pres. Bartlet.

     

    And this season, it revolved more around Jimmy Smitts character than anybody else, esept for maybe Josh.

     

    But you can't nominate Jimmy Smits for best actor because he sucks. In fairness, Alan Alda was nominated for West Wing, and he does deserve the nomination.

     

    I've read the plan was originally for Alda's character to win the election, but between John Spencer dying and the show geting cancelled, they thought the fans would want to see Smits's character win. Meh, says I.
