They lied to each other though. I can’t see past that. Gentleman’s sport indeed.

Road House (Prime)

A great time! About as stupidly enjoyable as could reasonably be expected of this. Gyllenhaal superb in the lead, three of the world's most beautiful faces for the lads (Jessica Williams, Daniela Melchior, Billy Magnussen), and, I'm sad to report, Conor McGregor is very funny. I'll have another, thanks.

As massively charismatic as Gyllenhaal is (and I didn’t get on as well with McGregor being super McGregor as much as most) it doesn’t have a scene to match this one from the original.

It’s a shame it didn’t get a cinematic release and a bit of box office success though. Anything that gets The Edge of Tomorrow sequel going quicker would be great.

I've only watched the first two episodes, but Shogun (Disney+) is good.  Really, really good.  It's fantastically well shot and directed, and the pacing and writing is absolutely top notch.  

It's not even remotely fantasy, but it has that Game Of Thrones thing of weaving a wonderfully complex political intrigue.  I've no idea where it's going but fuck me, it's great tv.

Probably the best series I've come across in a long while, since Bosch probably, where all the elements are done well and you end each episode wanting to roll straight into the next one.

What do you make of Cosmo Jarvis? I’ve heard him described as 80% Tom Hardy which is pretty funny and quite accurate but I do enjoy him as the gentle brute who thinks the really clean incredibly disciplined people are the savages.

How long is Cody's right arm in that picture? 

That's all I take from that advert

Awful editing job

Road House (2024) A solid 3 star film that Connor McGregor is absolutely shit in. He’s the catalyst for both the action starting and the film becoming almost too cringey to watch. Terrible casting.

Fleecedwood Mac.

Ricky Stanicky is a bad film but it’s inoffensive and features Big Match John and his mad hair and isn’t too painful to watch. A lot is said of how you can’t make comedies anymore because of wokeness but I’d have felt a bit ripped off if I’d paid money and took travel time to go and see this. Not sure if I’d put it in the good shit film category but it’s in the watchable shit film category for sure.

Oh don't worry I don't even like McDonald's.

I'll be sitting there eating it and muttering to myself that Burger King has better action inside the restaurant, all of the staff at BK aren't washed up part timers, too many gherkins in the mid card of the burger, the chips are past their sell by date, and the Hamburglar knew about the allegations at the very top of the organisation so anyone that still eats at McDonald's is a cunt. Later on I might reply to some pro McDonald's tweets with some memes about BK.

That's right isn't it?

Wears a funny wig, has white powder all over his face, is a bit of a clown……

I don’t know if you’re being moronic or not but that’s how it comes across. Man United did have one of the worst fan bases. Why? Because they were the biggest team with the largest fan base. Certainly before Chelsea and Man City had money at least. That’s not to say a team like Yeovil Town probably don’t have awful fans, but if they have 10% of the amount of fans Man Utd do, it’s not going to be as noticeable right? Because you hear less from them. So yeah, WWE fans, because there are millions more of them on social media, are louder and have shitter opinions than AEW fans because of sheer volume. That’s not to say neither have shit takes, but one is more noticeable than the other. 
 

What grown adult chooses McDonalds by choice ffs? That’s an everything else is closed option for most people.

You’re a dyed in the wool tribalistic ‘fan’ of a wrestling company. I’ll take any comment on sounding moronic from you with a pinch of salt. You are also missing the point that AEW fans are WWE fans and vice versa. People who like wrestling generally watch wrestling. Weirdo’s on Twitter might set their stall up otherwise but if you talk to real people you’ll see different.
 

The point I’m making is moronic fan base takes aren’t exclusive to a team/brand/favourite YouTube influencer. They’re exclusive to a type of person who bases a large part of their personality on which team/brand/influencer they like best. Obviously majority equals volume (except at Old Trafford right lads) but that wasn’t the point.

Way too much McDonald's slander last couple of posts. Let's not get crazy now.

I’ve never personally sold a burger in my life and I make a better burger than McDonald’s.

Completely agree. It's the market leader, which is why more people will watch Akira Tozawa vs LA Knight then Bryan Danielson vs Will Ospreay. WWE can put on any old shite and get record ratings and attendance because it's THE brand (and I am not saying all WWE is shite, but my point is being the most popular isn't always a sign of quality). Also WWE has one of the worst fandoms with the worst takes, as most big fandoms do like Star Wars. 

That’d be 90% of the AEW ‘fandom’ then.  Singling out a brand is like saying Man United have the worse fans. No, football has the worse fans. Well, second worse obviously wrestling fans take the top spot. Just ahead of football fans, gamers and billionaire shaggers.

Saw "Kevin Dunn" trending this morning so I clicked on it to see if he'd died or been arrested. It was everyone talking about this camera work. Which is pretty cool, in fairness. Hunter's an over-rated booker, as evidenced by every other post about him fucking up can't miss Cody (again) but he's not afraid to take stuff from the past that works great, like this. 

Judging HHH’s booking by posts on here he might come across as fucking up the Cody story but if you judge it on the comments on Twitter he’s the best ever. I think he/WWE were doing a fine job considering it was a two year build but then in the final stretch of that build the remit changed from ‘Make Cody the focal point of the company’ to ‘Stop people talking about the perverted sex maniac by any means necessary’. Even so they’ve far from fucked it up. Cody is still mega over and they’ve laid the foundations for a couple of huge matches down the line. It absolutely can all far apart come Mania though.

The best result for me is that Cody overcomes all odds at Mania, fights away The Bloodline and wins as clean as can be. Then you either have the rematch at Summerslam or even better if his schedule permits you have him face The Rock at Summerslam with that match being the catalyst for Roman vs Rock later on. If the takeaway from Mania is that fans can’t wait to see what happens with The Rock and Roman then they’ll have done Cody rotten.

The Rock is the very definition of a brilliant salesman. Everything he does is to sell one thing or another whether that’s one of his many mediocre films that he’s made absolute bank on or his extremely overpriced popular with the gym dads UA range. The guy even convinced me to have pancakes for breakfast once just by tweeting a massive stack of his pancakes. Cody doesn’t cut bad promos but I agree the content was weak.

I fully expect The Rock to lead The Bloodline down to ring on Friday to start kicking things off between him and Roman, which is part of the problem. As much as I’ve enjoyed The Rock this run it’s sort of turned the main angle in to the build for Rocky vs Roman next year.

Fuck me if Masters of the Air didn’t feature the all time greatest flag shagging moment in the final episode. Really enjoyed the series that managed to blow a huge budget on some brilliant aerial shots whilst having absolutely shocking green screen spattered throughout. As good as Callum Turner and the chap who played Rosie were you gotta hand it to Elvis who just looks like an absolute mega star every time he’s on screen. The living embodiment of an aftershave advert. I look forward to trying to guess where I’ve seen the other 90% of the actors before in the years to come.

It's goatse but there are some great runners up in this thread.

That reminds me….

More than an honorable mention to your finest work good sir.

Shitspurs being the only team to let me down yesterday gave me a free £5 bet that I  put on another 8 game BTTS acca. 15/16 teams again but this time I’d already cashed out at £111. Fucking Inter lost me £285 though otherwise it’d be a week of chippy teas in Chez Danger.

Can you keep this open another couple of years so I can finish Tears of the Kingdom(well start it really). My top 3 of Breath of the Wild, RDR2 and GoW has definitely been disrupted by Elden Ring but even without that all other game ruining beast I think GoW would have dropped from my top spot. I’ll be back when I think of new and creative ways to fill the rest of my list with Peggle.

I had a 8 game both teams to score acca coming in for a nice £245 win. Guess which Spursy bastards couldn’t even get a consolation goal whilst getting mullered by Fulham.

From what I gather as well, to medically transition trans women have to take a LOT of oestrogen and various hormone blockers, and can actually have less testosterone in their systems than ciswomen, meaning any theoretical advantage would be gone. 

For this point to be true you’d have to accept that trans women are putting themselves through the entire ordeal of transitioning to be trans women and not just self identifying as a woman without the whole rigmarole to gain an advantage in an amateur sports event.

Hula Hoops, Wotsits and Monster Munch are fine crisps but belong nowhere near a butty. Wotsits and Monster Munch I’ll allow if crushed to powder as then you get the wonderful concentrated powdered flavour without the consistency problem but it has to be an accompaniment to the sandwich filler main event of meat or cheese.
