American Gladiators

Recommended Posts

well, I think I like this show, but it certainly needs some work:

 

-fix the damn camera angles, we need to see the whole playing field.

 

-the Gladiators need to be a little more prepared.

 

-some of the Gladiator gimmicks are just lousy (looking at YOU, Wolf)

 

-no Breakthrough and Conquer? Fuck that! Earthquake is a poor substitute.

 

WOLF IS AWESOME. He is totally a coked up werewolf.

This needs Rico.

 

 

And so the winner at the end will get to be a new Gladiator?

I thought it always was like that...

 

I never noticed it ever happening though..

The barrel roll needs better hand grips like on Ninja Warrior, and they need a time penalty for falling off. Otherwise it's better just to go quick onto it and fall off.

That Women's eliminator was good...

 

They could take out some things and get the Gladiators involved in some capacity

I don't like the finish being to crash though a padded wall. Just have them get pass the Gladiators like they used to.

I like how the first women's winner landed right on her head after crashing through.

 

Overall, I liked it. The second episode was much better than the first. Also, the line for Crush starts right behind me.

No "choose your path"?

 

Fuck that

 

 

That shit used to create some of the most vicious hits.

 

 

Also, the new one seems to be alot more safety oriented. What the fuck was up with the dog collar things they wore?

Somebody tell me how Venus won that first Eliminator..did the red girl just give up?

 

She fell down on the travelator and couldn't get back up. I think she just laid there for a good 30+ seconds.

That seemed a bit odd. I mean, she just hung there instead of just sliding back down and trying again. Far be it for me to question the integrity of American Gladiators, but that was kinda fishy.

she had her hands on the top but never really tried to pull herself up..as much of a lead she had going to that she should have won..it was crazy.

She just looked like she ran out of gas. Probably one of those people who lifts weights and all that but does minimal cardio.

WTF, do these Gladiators even practice these events beforehand?

 

Mayhem sucks at Joust. Militia had no idea what he was doing in Hang Tough on the first show.

 

Militia got hurt they said, that's why Wolf replaced him on the Skater Dude's run on HT. Mayhem is just a gangly bastard who messed up, then managed to mess up THE EXACT SAME WAY... ONLY FASTER the second time around. Then pushed the guy into the water afterwards. Yeah, good job fuck up then fuck up again then act like a douche.

 

I wanted a return of Choose Your Destiny too, but the Eliminator is longer and more murder-death-kill this time around (Cargo Net to Hand Bike I'm looking at you) so it would be insanity to have someone even try. I do like that they took one aspect of one of the old shows eliminators and made it a separate event in the run across a beam/bridge and get shit tossed at you.

 

I don't like the new Assault, it seems like the whole arena is smaller (i.e. less run time between firing stations) so they had to make it "harder" to shoot by adding loading the weapon and "find the arrow in the sand" which I HATE. Do they have the three balls near the end to just sort lob and pray they don't get facialed in the end? Probably not since they didn't talk about a button to push for extra points.

 

The New Powerball is iffy, they could have made the openings wide without going to garbage can sized openings.

 

So far, my childhood weeps just a little, hopefully this gets better.

 

And Toya in the first game just gave up. Gave up I says. I did dig the "Elder Statesman" getting in trouble for general douchebaggery in the first event.

 

If there is no Atlasphere, I will be dissappointed.
