The coronavirus has wreaked havoc on every aspect of our society, and the movie business is no exception. Since it flat out isn't safe to go to a theater right now and it will be some time before people safe to go to one in large numbers pretty much every major release has been pushed … Continue reading Magic Marvel Movie Moments
Time to shut it down
But why they probably won't (If you'd rather listen than read I talked about this on my Rob the Genius podcast on Anchor, Spotify, and Apple podcasts). As of right now, WWE and AEW are still going to be putting on TV shows. They both taped a good bit of stuff in March and early … Continue reading Time to shut it down
Movie Review – Birds of Prey
Not writing the whole title out, sorry not sorry I missed this one in the theater, but I did finally get around to watching it at home as part of my social distancing TV programming. Unfortunately for all involved it greatly underperformed at the box office, grossing just under $202 million worldwide on an $84 … Continue reading Movie Review – Birds of Prey
Retro Recap – Clash of the Champions 8
This recap is brought to you by the quarantine! Yeah, I was looking for something I hadn't watched in a while and I settled on this one. I was a big NWA fan back in the day so I saw this when it happened, but I haven't watched it in a long time. The Clash … Continue reading Retro Recap – Clash of the Champions 8
What about Chris Benoit?
The past week or so has seen a resurgence in mentions of the name Chris Benoit, obviously set off by the first two episodes of the Dark Side of the Ring series on Vice TV. And with it the weird discussion about how he should be handled by us and the WWE given how he … Continue reading What about Chris Benoit?
Movie Review – BlacKKKlansman
This 2018 film is based on the true story of Detective Ron Stallworth, who through his own doggedness managed to get an undercover sting of a local KKK chapter underway. Along the way Stallworth talks to infamous Klan leader David Duke (played by Topher Grace) and finds that there are Klan members in law enforcement … Continue reading Movie Review – BlacKKKlansman
Roman’s Next
I've mostly stayed on the sidelines when it came to talking about Roman Reigns since he came back, mainly because I was tired. I'd unloaded damn near every thought I had, found as much factual information to back up my opinions, and I think I covered every angle there was on the man's career. So … Continue reading Roman’s Next
Retro Recap – WrestleMania 6
It's been a while since I've done one of these, and with 'Mania being around the corner I figured I'd get back on the old bicycle. WrestleMania 6 was the first one that I watched live, on something called closed circuit TV. Pay per view was alive and well but the WWF decided to show … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 6
Music Review – Gang Starr: One of the Best Yet
One of the Best Yet is the seventh and likely final album from rap group Gang Starr, who were one of the best (see what I did there) second tier acts of the 90s. And by second tier I'm talking commercially, not talent wise. DJ Premier is one of the greatest hip hop producers of all … Continue reading Music Review – Gang Starr: One of the Best Yet
State of the WWE Women’s Division
I got inspired to do this by Becky Lynch's suggestion that the name 'Men's' and 'Women's' be taken off of the top singles titles on each brand. Personally I found the whole 'remove the distinction' thing to be a solution in search of a problem, one that doesn't really fix any of the issues or … Continue reading State of the WWE Women’s Division
