    I'm pretty sure they've all been debunked. They havn't been debunked, as such. The problem is the poster (who called himself "A friend") only made that one post on the fuselage and hasn't been back since, which, of course, makes him suspect. As far as the spoilers go: they corraborate with all the existing spoilers out there. And, to me anyway, they simply sound too believable to be false. I can't say I'm 100% but in the last couple of days I've heard stuff from Ausellio and buddytv that gels with what this guy is saying.

    The belief in WWE is that RVD is done. His contract is up later this year and apparently negotiations are no longer ongoing. Personally, I don't believe anything is finalized until it's finalized, but people were under the impression it was pretty much finalized this week. RVD basically wanted to take some time off after his current deal expires, but still be paid a downside guarantee by WWE. They were not down with this idea, and so he said well, I'm not interested in staying. To me, this whole thing sounds like a game of hardball negotiations, largely on the part of RVD, but it may also be a case where they've determined that he doesn't want to go to TNA and is playing a game, and they're done playing. Either way, he's not gone until he's gone. Bryan Alvarez in this weeks f4w newsletter

    Movies you like...

    Jawbreaker: everyone said it was just a bad Heathers rip off, but I really liked it. speed 2: not as great as the first one, of course, but I don't know why it gets all the flack it does. It's an enjoyabe pop corn movie and William Dafoe is brilliant.

    Spoilers for the finale are out. Reading them, if true, the finale will either make or break the show.

    The Condemned

    If it had someone like Jason Stratham or Vin Diesel in it, it might have done better. But most people don't know who stone cold is nowadays. Really, you need a famous name to carry a rather mindless action movie.

    Tom Hanks is going to be paid $50 million

    Giselle Bundchen sounds like terrible casting as Langdon's love interest. She was awful in Taxi, and I'm not sure how believable a 26 year old supermodel is with a 50 something actor (yeah, I know it's Hollywood but c'mon...).

    QFT QFT? Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, Randy Orton is a good wrestler. Which is more than one could say for Mr Bagwell. Also, I don't think Randy had a career in soft porn films before entering wrestling. I could be wrong though. No, he was just being a piece of shit going AWOL from Marine Corps boot camp. Yeah, cause staying when he absolutely hated it would have been better. If you're not totally certain you want to be in the marines, then you have to leave. Otherwise, you'll get yourself killed. Granted, he could have went about a better way but you can't judge him when you don't know the entire story. If he wasn't certain they why did he sign the eight year contract? He went AWOL twice during his stint in the Marine Corps and was sentenced to 38 days in the brig, and unfortunately for us, he wasn't convicted as a felon. He's a piece of shit, a fucking quitter. Because he was only 18? Because the recruiters are well known for their ability to exaggerate or downright lie about life in the military to high school kids and he found a military career wasn't the great deal he'd been conned into thinking it was?

    Summer Box Office...

    Nancy Drew could be a sleeper hit. I can't imagine it had that big of a budget, and it might prove a hit with kids.

    LATEST UPDATE ON ROB VAN DAM'S STATUS WITH WWE by Mike Johnson @ 4:34:00 PM on 4/27/2007 Several sources are confirming that Rob Van Dam has turned down his latest contract offer to remain with World Wrestling Entertainment. As of now, his deal is set to expire over the summer (I believe but can not confirm late July) but until the deal has expired, there's always a chance that the two sides will come to terms. As of right now, I've heard that creative has been instructed to focus on CM Punk and Elijah Burke as the major players for the ECW brand so that if Van Dam does depart, it's not as strong of a blow to the ECW storylines. Van Dam has been with WWE since July 2001 when he was brought in as part of the ECW end of the ill-fated Alliance contingent during the Invasion storyline. Van Dam has held just about every major WWE championship belt, although he was never pushed as a top performer for any extended period of time despite a large contingent of fan support, especially early in his tenure. Should he leave the company, Van Dam's true legacy would be that he was the primary motivating factor in convincing Vince McMahon to revive Extreme Championship Wrestling for the 2005 ECW One Night Stand PPV event, which ironically, Van Dam missed due to a knee injury, although he did give the best promo of his career during the show. When WWE decided to re-launch ECW as a third brand for the company, Van Dam captured the WWE championship from John Cena and was then awarded the resurrected ECW World championship. The original plan was for Van Dam to have a long run with the ECW belt while dropping the WWE title, but those plans were tossed aside when he and Sabu were pulled over for speeding and later charged with possession of a controlled substance. Van Dam quickly dropped both belts and was suspended by the company. Upon his return, he remained a top-tier ECW player but the brand was no longer built around him. Prior to his WWE run, Van Dam worked for the original Extreme Championship Wrestling from January 1996 to the end of the company's existence, although there were times towards the end of ECW that he took extended breaks from wrestling when ECW wasn't able to pay him to perform. During his ECW run, he gradually graduated from undercard heel feuding with Sabu to the top babyface attraction of the latter days of the company. Van Dam also worked briefly for WCW under the moniker Robby V and toured All Japan Pro Wrestling. Considered to be an extremely popular performer among die hard fans, Van Dam would be highly prized on the independent scene should he leave the company, particularly since he's had usage of the Rob Van Dam ring name from 1992 on and likely wouldn't be prevented from using it by World Wrestling Entertainment, as the former Dudley Boys,

    24 - Season 6

    Jack Bauer needs a change of scenery, so where should he go? Posted Apr 25th 2007 6:43PM by Meredith O'Brien Filed under: 24 TV Guide's report that 24 writers are "seriously considering" moving Jack Bauer to a new city for his next very bad day -- otherwise known as season 7 -- got me to thinking. If I were to pick a city in which to unleash America's intrepid terrorist fighter, which one would it be? My first thought was Boston. During the great siege of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force Lite-Bright boards that prompted a shut-down of large parts of the city earlier this year, Boston certainly could've used Jack Bauer to beat back those nefarious cartoon characters. Plus, I could definitely see a scene with Jack using Fenway Park as a place to rendezvous with a terrorist, who would, of course, be wearing a Yankees cap. Or it might be fun to send Jack to New York City where he could meet up with the folks from Heroes and tell them he's takin' back Monday nights. Dammit! Plus, the dude who absorbs everyone's superpowers and is shown blowing up like a nuclear bomb in some Heroes scenes is a threat to national security. There's always Washington, D.C., where Jack could go all political and beat the stuffing out of anyone who wants to reduce the black ops budget or cut back on CTU funding. Washington or New York would be cool. Probably best to move out of LA, in the 24 verse that place is so dangerous it's beyond me why anyone wants to live there.

    Drive

    I'm pretty sure that for every actor with a holding deal, there are a hundred just looking for work. Also cancellation comes with the territory. I'm sure actors get emotionally invested into a show, but when it's cancelled, it's probably best to move on and look for the next job. I understand that tv shows get cancelled, but fox have a reputation for cancelling new shows with an alarming regularity. When I hear of an interesting pilot coming from fox, my first thought is "enjoy it for the 4 weeks it lasts." And I'm surprised Fillion agreed to do a show with Fox after the firefly debacle because he knows better than anyone that they weren't likely to give a new show a chance. And, considering he's done a few high profile projects, I can't imagine he's struggling to find work. He's not A list, but surely he doesn't have to take every offer going.

    I like how the one Asian male automatically knows kung fu. But it was so cool to see Jin do that spinner kick, I'm prepared to forgive how much of a racial stereotype it is.

    Drive

    Nathan Fillion actually signed a holding deal with fox (similar to the one Stacy Keibler signed with ABC). They agreed for him to star in a pilot and if that didn't work out he'd join an existing Fox programme. He could be on next seasons 24...I'd mark for Jack bauer and Captain Mal on the same show. But I don't think giving him a supporting role in a show would work, Fillion's a natural leading man IMO. Although why he would chose to leave his career in hands of fox after how they royally screwed over firefly is beyond me.

    Shooting at Virginia Tech Campus

    The truth is if 2 or 3 guys in the first class had tackled him, we probably wouldn't be dealing with this many deaths. However, while common sense may dictate "he's shooting at everyone, you have nothing to lose so you may as well try something." if you're actually in the situation, common sense goes out the window. You're simply reverting to natural instints, which is to hide behind a desk and hope to God the guy doesn't shoot you.

    Top Ten Draws In U.S. Wrestling

    Orton does sell a lot merchandise apparently (mostly with women). Although Jeff Hardy might have stolen the chick demographic from him upon his return. I might regret putting Hogan so high. Since now a days in terms of vintage appeal, Taker is well ahead of him. And Taker can still go.

    WWE ends relationship with DSW

    The developmental feds only cost like $1-2 million dollars a year to run. Every little bit counts. Usually when they start releasing superstars they release guys who are making 100K or less. If those were cost cutting moves then $1-$2 million a year is pretty big in comparison. Yeah, but DSW is more valuable in the long run than any mid carder. Aside from OVW, where are they going to get talent from now on? Well, at least talent who will wrestle the way they want.

    Shooting at Virginia Tech Campus

    Yeah, and it'll tell others they can do stuff like this and earn their place in history. My advice to the mass media: don't bother reading the guy's shitty plays, interviewing his family and friends, don't bother filming countless documenteries where you delve into his mind and figure out what made him tick, because you'll just end up romanticizing him in the minds of many. Mourn the dead, and let this douchebag be forgotten like the nobody he was.
