Star Wars Ep. III To Feature Longest Fight In Film

Recommended Posts

The Yoda fight was just a CGI cartoon jumping around

 

Count Dooku was not CGI. Maybe just his face.

 

The Yoda fight was hilarious because of how pathetically stupid it looked to watch a frog jump around with a lightsaber. It looked like something BUD beer comes up for as a Super Bowl commercial

 

Whatever makes you happy, man. If you didn't like the Yoda/Dooku fight then you have no business watching a Star Wars movie.

I think the Yoda scene is overrated. It looked like a lot was happening, but Yoda wasn't doing anything but spinning around and yelling;. It came as a surprise because he was limping around the whole movie, but it still is overrated.

Timed Hogan vs Zeus from No Holds Barred. It was about 12min 50 secs from the bell to when Zeus finally goes down but there was some interruption during it so I don't think it quite makes it. You can see the fight on the monitors some of the time but not when the main female lead escapes to the elevator.

Ugh. I wouldn't know if I'd count it anyway. Too much jumping back and forth between that and...wait.....WHY AM I ARGUING OVER NO HOLDS BARRED?!?!?! That movie sucked on so many levels. (cries)

If you can honostly tell me you didn't mark out for Hogan throwing a barbell through a camera lens than either you're the best lier on earth or you have no emotions.

True, that was funny, but whenever I try explaining the plot out loud it gives me a headach.

 

Rip, a wrestler is drawing ratings, so this evil guy who doesn't even run a wrestling promotion wants him (in bed), because he's ratings have dropped to the worst station on T.V. Rip refuses, so Zeus, who reportly murdered someone and was managed by Doc Louis, Rip's manager, gets out of jail and beats up people because wrestling on T.V. is real. Then Hogan makes a guy shit his pants, makes the girl need to change her underwear, and kills Zeus, only for him to return to the WWF on a SNME in 1989....

 

UGH! (gets Tylenol)

You are forgetting the Stan Hansen bar scene.

...I left that out intentionally. UGH

 

Stan Hansen = The Most Disgusting Wrestler Ever.

I love this movie because I just love "B" movies. There's just so much great stuff in this. I'm almost tempted to start a "50easons why No Holds Barred is the greatest movie ever" thread.

 

Let's see --

 

1)Hogan kicking the limousine so hard it swerves from side to side on the road

 

2)Stan Hansen!

 

3)Hogan jumping out of the top in the limousine in an absolute immortal cinema

scence

 

4)Hogan using pies to ward off gun toting villans

 

5)Hogan throwing a dumbell into the Zeus sign

 

6)The clever use of the main villans as representatives of evil Turner land

 

7)In retrospect, the main villan spurts out sime lines about TV viewing that Vince obviously believes in

 

8)Fresh inventive charactors like Rip.

 

9)Pee jokes -- Because they're always funny!

 

10)Zeus ripping off the corner post and using it as a weapon

 

11)The movie puts over the double ax handle. How cool is that?

 

12)The actress in the bar was hot

 

13)Zeus chopping his neck is the ultimate sign of intimidation

 

14)Hogan shoving money down the throught of the evil villan was not only a tribute to Dibiase but it was yet another indicator of this movie's unknown greatness at the time since it represented the foreshadowing of the Austin vs Vince WWF feud.

 

15)The ending song. A great workout song which will have you hitting the gym in no time.

 

16)Zeus challenging Hogan for a match was sooo Rockyish and any movie that reminds me of Rocky is thumbs up in my book.

 

17)Hogan throwing the barbell into the camera lens

 

18)The rip'em hand gesture.

 

19)Hogan sitting on the aincient chair and breaking it was funny. See, because it was the villan's chair and he's evil. HAHA!

 

20)Let's not forget the genius bit of the chair breaking also put over the fact that wrestlers are big and strong. See, there are always double meanings to everything in this movie

 

21)I don't drink or condone it but I must admit Hansen's technique of drinking out of the keg was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Maybe I'll try it with milk someday. That'd actaully be a good idea for Kurt Angle.

 

22)The drinking out of the keg inspired Austin to drown his beer which in turn was part of Austin's charactor that go so over with the rebellious teens during the attitude era.

 

23)Yet again, this movie amazes me with its foresight. Hansen making fun of the two henchmen's penises was not only hilarious but it was inspiration for the Val Venis/Big Show penis joke on G-TV.

 

24)Hansen makes this movie. His wrestling charactor fits the role of what he does in the movie better than any wrestler I've ever seen.

 

25)Hogan sticking up for wrestling fans everywhere in the restaurant by proving that wrestlers are not big, dumb doofus. They're actually the most articulate people alive. Every fan watching that move must have had a tear in their eye when that happened. "You tell him, Rip."

 

26)This movie gave opportunities to people. It gave wrestling fans the opportunity to witness Zeus first hand. Now, does anybody get to see Darth Vader come out of the Star Wars films and take over the world? No!

 

27)We got to see Zeus do his famous pec juggiling. Before that all pec jugglers were in the closet. Now, we can all come out and pec juggle with pride. It became so mainstream that even Homer Simpson was doing it.

 

28)Even though they're hard to watch this movie isn't scared to deal with sensitive issues.

 

29)The aweinspiring dedication of Randy to walk again

 

30)The emotional bond between Randy and Rip brings a tear to my eye every time. Once again this movie scores points for me by reminding me of Rocky II when Adrian was in a coma. This time it's Randy instead of Adrian.

 

31)The intelligence of the fans watching the main fight at the end between Rip and Zeus. When the evil Turner representative dies as Hogan wins the bout they're all cheering. Why? Because the fans just knew he was evil.

 

32)Rip, The psycologist completely understood his woman's problems. Once again, Hogan's sticking up for all wrestlers by showing how smart they really are.

 

33)The movie showing Hogan's vision as a blur was awesome. Randy lifting a finger in the wheelchair to inspire Hogan to get up was beyond he realm of awesomity. If you didn't get a tear in your eye there, you're just simply not human.

 

34)The above blurred vision yet again reminded me of Rocky.

 

35)The main female lead's escape was the most suspensful escape of the villans in the history of anything and everything. Pushing that chair back underneath the guard was cinema at its finest

 

36)Jesse Ventura was in it.

 

37)Mene Gene Okerlund was in it

 

38)Hogan's opponent at the beginning of the movie reminded me of Iron Mike Sharpe who's one of my favourite wrestlers.

 

39)Wrestling moves! Who doesn't mark for wrestling moves in a movie?

 

40)In Hogan vs Zeus they filled it with great psychology. Hogan teasing the bodyslam attempt only to get it on the 2nd try made me thinking I was watching All Japan. Hogan winning with the axe handle that knocked Zeus down from the apron to the ring reminde me of Misawa busting out the Tiger Driver '91 to beat Kawada in 94. How cool is that? In fact, I beat Misawa and Kawada were watching this and that's where they got their inspiration from. Tsurta had nothing to do with it.

 

41)The awesome selling of the kick Hansen? does to his opponet during one of the firs bar fights. The WWE boys could learn something from that if they pay attention.

 

42)Urine overflowing the urinals in the bar was superb and is something you don't see every day. It added to the toughness feel of the bar.

 

43)Hogan doing the right thing in front of the kids when Zeus challenged was the ultimate example of real manhood.

 

44)When the radio add played offering people from all over the countryside to fight there was one guy who must have been inspired b"Over the Top" prematch psychout jobs as he breaks open walnuts by crushing them with his mouth. Now that's truly hardcore.

 

45)"Battle of the tough guys" is the best slogan ever.

 

46)CNN has nothing on the WNN.

 

47)Sexylingerie scene plus a fanservice shot of some hot calves. Now don't all movies have sex stuff in them? Most of them do but what No Holds Barred truly excels at is they know that less is actually more. Imagination is a wonderful thing. And besides, how many movies out there have shots of calves?

 

48)Hogan doing pushups alongside the bed at a blistering place so early in the morning. Only true men do that.

 

49)Hogan in sexy underwear. This movie should get accolades for not being gender byist and giving something for the ladies to look at.

 

50)Hogan seperating the single bed with blankets on a wire reminded me of that "Who's the Boss?" episode where Angela and Tony do the same thing.

Bill Eadie (Demolition Ax(e)) was the guy in the opening vs. Rip. That should be reason #51 damn it. Demolition ruled for a team that had little wrestling ability.
