  1. How Javier never got a Best Actor nod instead of a Best Supporting Actor is beyond me. I know Tommy Lee Jones was the BIG NAME, but Javier owned that film.
  2. Gail Kim, having finally signed her WWE Contract, is expected to join the Smackdown brand and feud with Michelle McCool who is in the middle of a Heel Turn. Maryse is expected to turn FACE as she is expected to be the PLAYBOY Diva in 2009. Tomko has signed a contract with the WWE and will debut soon. No official date, but it will be before the Royal Rumble for obvious reasons, or at the Rumble itself.
  3. Slighty off topic...props for the NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN icon picture
  4. None taken Barni....it did go off topic a little when I was chatting to Pez..
  5. Wrestling Journalist Ryan Clark is reporting that WWE Producer BRUCE PRICHARD aka BROTHER LOVE has been released by the WWE. As this is fresh from the ECW Tapings and Live RAW Show going on at the moment, the WWE have yet to officially announce it. More news as it comes.
  6. He has his priorities right then lol I guess the government facilities may have to adhere to the rules to the letter than private companies - although I could be well off of the mark. With private companies having to answer to share holders and balance the books without the potential bailout from central government, I would think your Dad may have more opportunity there. After such a storied career I am sure he will get some work soon. Despite the current financial climate, your Dad has a trade/skill with nearly 3 decades of experience.
  7. It surprises me that no one will take him on as they could get away with paying less than those with a piece of paper that says they are qualified. Has he applied to the government for work and they have turned him down for work because of no certificate?
  8. A bit foolish by John, but another situation of people/media and others blowing things out of proportion. As with Brand and Ross, the situation was blown out of proportion and Brand/Ross were made scapegoats for the actions of superiors deciding to air a previously recorded show UNCUT and after Andrew Sachs asked for the answer phone messages not to be aired. Now, I do not condone what Brand and Ross did or said, but why broadcast a show that contained what it did? Also, no one at the BBC has publicly denied Jonathon Ross's claim that he told the show producer to cut the answer phone bits out as it would cause problems. That to me shouts volumes what really went on. I am sure this will fade away and John will carry on as normal. In the manner of Comic Book Guy.....BEST LINE EVER!
  9. All I can see in my head now is Joey from Friends when he had all of Chandler's clothes on...
  10. That's a shame to hear about your Dad losing his job. In Bristol some areas are looking bad because alot of businesses have relocated to the new shopping centre that recently opened. I am fortunate enough to be in a reasonably secure retail sector, but the shops still seem to be buzzing with shoppers. I have never met Warrick before, but I have heard great things about him as a guest.
  11. Whenever I have been at an event where Craig has been a guest, he has always been busy. Always happy to have a laugh with fans, posing with sily faces in photos and loving a good chat, Craig is a guest who always delivers..
  12. I have just got my copy of the new Eddie Guerrero dvd box set VIVA LA RAZA - THE LEGACY OF EDDIE GUERRERO and it is superb. Nearly nine hours of footage, and some classic matches. Everything from his tag team with Art Barr, to his final match with Mr Kennedy where he won via DQ after faking a chair shot and throwing the chair to Kennedy - vintage Latino Heat. This collection make me cry several times when they were talking to those people who mattered to Eddie, and when Dave Batista replayed how he found out about Eddie dying it was very sad. Vicky Guerrero is herself, and not what you see on TV. You can see that she truly loves Latino Heat,a nd I got the feeling she will never stop loving him. A high recommendation to any wrestling fan who loves great wrestling ability combined with superb entertainment. R.I.P. Eddie......still Lying, Cheating, and Stealing!!!!!
  13. Is it snowing with you Pez? We just have the very cold weather down here in Bristol.
  14. Very true. Despite a newspaper invariably being a daily edition, deadlines for changes can be a long time in advance. That is why you will usually see adverts for events, whether they be conventions/signing events like this one or music concerts, that include a "check the website for updates etc etc". Seeing as the e-mail to Jason at Showmasters was dated November 27th, the website and forum announcement following in due course, it is not a surprise that the advert wasn't adjusted.
  15. Hi Everyone I am forwarding my details to you as I have managed to persuade the local Vue multiplex to have your fliers on show upto and whilst the film is showing. Cheers Jonesy
  16. With "Buffy Moive" rumours circulating ever since the last season ended, it is no surprise that they resurfaced with the hype and success of Twilight.
  17. What you say makes great sense. Having a white Blade would go against the mythos of Blade. To my knowledge, and please correct me if wrong, Blade has never been white in the comic books that he has haunted since 1973. If you read this webpage on wikipedia you will see comments as regards the origins of Blade. As regards the new Doctor possibly being potrayed by a black actor, I cannot see why someone like COLIN SALMON (just an example as I know he was in the last series of Dr Who) couldn't portray the Doctor. If anything, it would be far more workable than a female Doctor. But remember, that in the land of fiction, anything is possible. As regards Blade - The Series, not a patch on the film franchise, but still watchable to me.
  18. Hence why I asked about Sylvester being annonuced....top bloke is Mr McCoy.
  19. I presume you mean the fact Caroline Munro is featured on the website?
  20. It is highly unlikely that the WWE would run another WrestleMania retirement angle so soon after the Ric Flair one. Flair's one was meant to be special, and it was. With the Undertaker's character, you would not have the emotion that we had with the Flair vs HBK match and the RAW the following night. If indeed the Undertaker does retire after WrestleMania next year, it will be wholely different than what happened with Flair. When they did the Edge vs Undertaker angle, even with the internet wrestling dirt sheets, there were many complaints to the WWE about the way the Undertaker was treated on Smackdown. As regards Jeff Hardy, if and when you watch the Survivor Series, you will see that the back of Hardy's neck was taped up to sell the injuries. I agree that leaving the UNCONSCIOUS comment at that and not adding that he had been attacked was a tad unwise. It was only when Jeff hit the ring that everyone in the crowd etc knew that it was an attack angle rather than a Third Strike. As regards taking two hours to find out if it was real, most dirtsheets taek something small and make it look way worse than it is. For something we all know is scripted, some dirtsheet writers think some of us are thick and will always believe them. For as bad as the WWE was with the Hardy issue, the dirtsheets stoked the fire of uncertainty for Hardy fans. Anyway, welcome to the Wrestling forum YESINDEED. Look forward to seeing you here more.
