MillenniumMan831 Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 Picked up the VHS. It has Orton on the cover instead of Trish since they clipped out Trish/Christy, Show/Akebono, and the Eugene/Hassan/Hogan segment. No big loss really.
Guest bigm350 Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 Motorhead unplugged with Trips....it's just weird. Yeah, it is weird.
Downhome Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 and best buy guy said it wasnt coming out till next tuesday? apprantly the guy was a nimrod, or my BB sucks. probably both. I went to Best Buy to get it first, but they said it doesn't come out until next Tuesday also. He said it was the same for *almost* all of the Best Buy stores also.

I got mine this past Tuesday, at around 3-4 PM, at Best Buy.
Downhome Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 Doesn't suck for me, just had to drive to CC to pick it up. Have any EGs been found yet?
Jericholic82 Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 I indeed got it at amazon. cost 23.97 w/standard shipping. thast the same price before tax at BB anyhow so not too bad. At least I know Ill have a copy soon instead of playing phone tag and store hopping, w/ the price of gas and all.

I went to Best Buy to get it first, but they said it doesn't come out until next Tuesday also. He said it was the same for *almost* all of the Best Buy stores also. I've noticed this problem with alot of Best Buy stores - they hire people in video who dont even know shit half of the time - why can't they put them on fucking cashier duty or something? For him to say other Best Buys dont have it til next Tuesday as well is foolish to even say to a customer. It would be as easy as him saying, "ok just go to the website and order it" For what its worth, they even had a display up for the DVD at the Best Buy here and YES they were avaliable on Tuesday. I picked up the last copy though, so I'm sure even this Best Buy was saying the same story to others like its been discussed here.
Carnival Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 I got mine at Best Buy on Tuesday. They didn't have the John Cena CD, i wasn't gonna buy it anyways, but i found it weird they didn't have it. Best Buy sucks half the time. If they don't have it, they won't get it. Thats my experience, i had a hell of a time trying to get "Whiteboyz" on DVD when it came out, i finally had to order it from the website.

Downhome Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 Let's just agree that the people who work at Best Buy almost never know shit about what they should.
Jericholic82 Posted May 13, 2005 Report Posted May 13, 2005 Ok I agree. Man I shouyld be working there, I would totally be better than those jerkoffs, cuz I would actually know where everything was and what the new releases were and stuff cuz I stay on top of that in my reg life lol
Jericholic82 Posted May 14, 2005 Report Posted May 14, 2005 just checked online, it should be arriving to me today, as the tracking site said it left my post office today. cool beans!!!
Jericholic82 Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 got it sat. have only watched the hof (fun stuff but last years was better to me, flairs full into was much better than what we saw on spike) and battle royal, plsu first 4 matches of ppv (thru trish-christy) first thoughts: great dvd, though sad about no easter eggs. I see that christy ahd her musci edited, which caught me offguard as I had not heard about tha happening prior, then again christy has only been on like 1 ppv match before (taboo tuesday vs carmella) plus in an obvious move, they switched to a zoomed in camera angle to not show the phantom trish kick out near the end. Good move I suppose, though I prefer the dvd to have the ppv as aired but this was probably a no-brainer. and yes I finally noticed rey adjusting his mask. dude mania is not a good time to try a different kind of mask.
Guest news_gimmick Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 I got it Friday, and watched just about everything. Good stuff overall, but does anyone else think that extra with Triple H and Motorhead singing his song in the locker a bit unnecessary? Its just....there, for no real reason other than to show Trips is their buddy.

The drummer was wearing a HHH shirt so maybe he cared lol.
genius33 Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 it was just... weird. lemmy looked like he would rather be anywhere else iron sheik RULED!!! i loved his speech, same with heenan and flair... i thought the HOF was great
Guest news_gimmick Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 Yah Lemmy is gold, just sorta stared blanky for the most part. And I laughed my ass off at the Sheik, mainly when he got loud and continued butchering the english language. The laughter while he was doing that also helped make it even funnier, I'm glad it became a running joke throughout the rest of the show.
Jericholic82 Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 Loved how Shiek kept coming back and talking even as they kept playing him off. Flair was so drunk off his ass it was funny as hell. He would have kept talking for hours if they didn't cut him off, those bastards
iliketurtles Posted May 16, 2005 Report Posted May 16, 2005 Is it just me or does the quality of this DVD fucking suck? There's this annoying line on the top of mine.
Guest news_gimmick Posted May 17, 2005 Report Posted May 17, 2005 I didn't have any line on my screen, the quality was on par with most DVD releases.
Jericholic82 Posted May 17, 2005 Report Posted May 17, 2005 hard to tell on quality as my TV has lines across the screen apparntly burned in before I got the dvd (I think my tv is starting to go actually) but it looks fine I think. AHA, I knew they would bleep out pipers "bullsh*t" line. That sucks, thoguh if they left it in I suppose they would have had to change the rating to TV-MA and it would be harder to sell to younger fans.
Jericholic82 Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 Finsihed the whole dvd tuesday. All in all a great dvd, though I am pissed about the editing of Bimbo Girl's theme and Piper's cursing.
pochorenella Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 My copy is on its way right now, but I have to ask: No Easter Eggs at all?!?
DrVenkman PhD Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 I didn't realize Nikolai Volkoff had such an interesting backstory until watching the HOF Of course it seemed kinda "edited", noting he retired with dignity was a proud American good guy in the early 90s, ignoring the fact he wrestled as a poor heel who wore the "cents" sign on his tights in 1995.
Guest news_gimmick Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 While he did end his career as a poor heel, I think it would be kind of embarassing to end his career recap on that note, which is why it was left off. Besides he really did nothing of note in 1994-95 anyway, maybe wrestling a match or two on tv.
Jericholic82 Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 My copy is on its way right now, but I have to ask: No Easter Eggs at all?!? I have found none, and have gone through all the usual steps. so I would say, NO

I was wondering the same thing. However I liked JRS crack at him talking about him having one suit.
