Just finished watching The Two Faces Of January. Won't say too much as it's one of those unfolding Hitchcockian films it's best to watch without knowing too much beforehand, but it's really good and already in my top 5 of the year. Oscar Isaac's great isn't he?

I did. I'd be more impressed if he was doing this and just passing it onto the police, but posting it all over social media doesn't sit right with me. Vigilantism is never a good idea, but especially not when thousands more can jump on the bandwagon too.

Sting vs Undertaker doesn't appeal to me at all. Never has done, really. Actually, now the Streak is over, I don't want to see a Taker comeback at all. It's strange, but for me, the Streak was what defined Undertaker and without it, I've not got much interest in him.

Cunts.

I think in terms of modern-day big-budget blockbusters, Pacific Rim was just okay. Miles ahead of the Transformers films and probably slightly better than Man of Steel, but nowhere near as good as Marvel's Phase 2 efforts or Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. I think it got a pretty easy ride critically too due to del Toro directing.

I've just watched The Expendables 2 in preparation for when the third hits DVD. I thought the first was pretty shit, was too po-faced and serious, although Austin was good fun. This one was much better, it seemed to have it's tongue in its cheek much more than the first and JCVD probably walks away with the film. 

Do we have any idea yet what form the UK Network will take? Will it be more like the US version of the Canadian?

Yeah that's shit. The fans always look bored as fuck.

Stardust is shit. I've seen a lot of praise for the gimmick online and I've no idea why. It's proper cringe-worthy in a way Goldust never was.

Where are you up to on this now and when are you watching the next episode by? I've been on holiday so missed this kicking off and want to catch-up without reading spoilers. Cheers.

Never watched it, always wanted to. I'm up for it if you want to hear a virgin's perspective.

Guardian article on TV good guys becoming bad guys references wrestling.

Well, I thought it was worth mentioning...

Not one of the Divas are likable. Other than Renee, obviously. The last in-ring likable Diva was Kaitlyn I reckon. Natalya is the worst though. That 'I'm royalty, I'm the queen of Harts' line made me cringe.

Sasha Banks is the fittest. Either her or Summer Rae.

I should be seeing that on Thursday. I hope it's more like Fantastic Mr Fox or The Royal Tenenbaums than Moonrise Kingdom which I thought was really shit.

It's in relation to him getting a title shot. It started during his feud with Orton over the WHC where everytime he lost he would ask for 'one more match', and it's pretty much carried on since then.

Fuck it, they should just chuck Hogan in the title match.

This argument is already boring (par for the course with Carbomb). Please stop.

Guardians of the Galaxy looks fun. Do they really need to reboot Fantastic Four though? The Avengers and X-Men franchises are already huge, was anybody crying out for another superhero-team franchise?

Wolf of Wall Street is a great film, but it could be even better with half hour trimmed off. No need at all for it to be 3 hours long.

How has nobody mentioned Triple H's smug shit-eating grin to Big Show as he hugged Betty White? That was the best part of Raw.

Roode/Aries where Aries won the belt, and Jarrett/Angle at Genesis are the best two TNA matches ever. Hulk vs Sting isn't far off though.

Moi from last night.

What pub is that? I see Gaslight Anthem lyrics, I need to visit this place.

Us Midlanders arn't Northern or Southern and we keep out of that childish nonsense safe in the knowledge we're superior to both.

I've heard chuck, cock, duck and all those slang names at one point or another. 'Me old mukka' is another one I regularly hear around here. 'Alright me old mukka?' mostly said by old blokes. Black Country dialect probably qualifies as a foreign language.

No cool t-shirts, so the Shield aren't even as good as Three Count. T-shirts make a stable. Its in the rule book.

You're right. That's what let JBL's Cabinet down, no t-shirts.

Bold statement, but I think The Shield might end up being my favorite stable ever.

At the moment they're slightly behind Evolution but if they can carry on their hot streak of excellent matches from now on up until they disband, then they'll almost certainly be in the top spot. They're incredible.
