  1. Beginning this Sunday, December 21, ‘12 Days of Attitude’ will bring new video-on-demand content to WWE Network. Each day, WWE Network subscribers will be able to unlock new programming in their video-on-demand library from the Attitude Era. Full episodes of Monday Night Raw, SmackDown and Heat will be among content available. Also included are memorable moments from the Attitude Era such as training vignettes of Vince and Shane McMahon and the interview in which The Rock and Mankind discuss The Undertaker and Big Show being buried alive.

     

    According to PWI

  2. Kane is the prime example of the company man. If they asked him to put over Balor or Owens or anyone else from NXT you know he would just say "whatever you need boss". Obviously he is well past his prime, but he can still have the occasional good match. A match between him and Balor would have a good David v Goliath dynamic to it. The guy has a job in WWE as long as he wants it

    Isn't something about all yuppies being the same and you're left in doubt if he just made the whole thing up to spice up his materialistic mundane yuppy existence?

    That's what I always took away from the ending. Even though he has commuted these acts of violence and murder, there is nothing about him that makes him stand out from the crowd. The yuppie world of materialistic goods and labels (the business card scene being a prime example) makes him completely interchangeable from all the rest, even to the point that the man he's speaking to at the end (I forget who the character is) doesn't recognise Bateman and even claims to have had a meeting with a murdered man.

    There's a shot of Bateman's POV right at the end where he scans a few people at the bar and he's realising that there is nothing to set him apart from that yuppie crowd no matter what he does.

    That's just my take on it

    Now I read the ending to be he hadn't killed anyone, so that bloke hadn't had lunch with a dead man. The fantasy is one to escape the futility of such a worthless, materialistic and isolate lifestyle. Which was great but I don't recall seeing enough of that lifestyle for my tastes.

     

    Unless I'm hugely getting films wrong.

    I eouldnt say your getting it wrong, it's just what you took from it. I've never viewed it as Bateman fantasising the whole thing, I've always seen it as him commuting horrific acts of violence with no payoff because he's just viewed as one of a billion other yuppies

    "And that's the end of that chapter"

     

    Seriously though, Bloodstock is looking a great lineup so far. The Saturday is absolutely stacked on the Main Stage, only change I would make is Opeth headlining above Within Temptation. ROb Zombie is going to be an interesting one. People said he phoned it in at Download this year, but you'd think being in the headline slot he'd bring his A-game. And we all said our piece on Trivium already and I'm sure they'll be a few boo boys who'll fuck off pretty quickly

  6. Queen & Adam Lambert?

     

    In all seriousness though, looking at the way others festivals are shaping up, and as you say the AC/DC shows being around a similar time, it might be wise for them to hold off and try for a strong showing in 2016. It does once raise the point about the over saturation of 3 day festivals though

  7. It was a swerve and he became HHH's manager.

    Yeah it was on RAW in the October. Perfect was supposed to take on HHH, but he said he had a knee injury (or was it a back injury). He came out with Marc Mero who said he sub for Perfect and put the Intercontinental title on the line, no sure why as he didn't have to but in suppose he was the fighting champion and all. Anyway, he shouldn't have done Perfect turned and help HHH win the title. It was a plan all along.

     

    And then he fucked off to WCW and HHH got stuck with Mr Hughes for a bit and then Chyna came along just before Wrestlemania

  8. Leeds used to be our festival of choice when the used to book more metal bands, but the first time we went to Download (2010) we enjoyed the atmosphere so much more Leeds has been completely sacked off.

    I'm still going to get a ticket for the Sunday so that I can cross KISS off the bucketlist

     

    Definitely looking forward to Bloodstock again

  9. I just go alphabetical but if I have load of one particular thing, Batman for instance, then that part goes in publication order.

    Feel free to laugh at my ridiculously small collection. Had to put Oldboy over to the side because the books are shorter in size and it was driving me mad

  10. That was the first time I remember him using it. Cena took it brilliantly for the finish...and was then fine a few seconds later, just like when he took Orton's punt which put HHH out for 6 weeks. He can be great at times, but he can also be downright rotten.

    But like was said it did over as a credible finisher by Cena not kicking out of it. The complete reverse of what happened at Wrestlemania that year when Jericho kicked out of Fandango's top rope leg drop finisher in his debut match. I'm not making out that Fandango was going to be something (he wasn't, and most likely never will be) but having someone kick out of your finisher the first time it's used just made him look like a chump right off the bat

  11. How would you go about cancelling it, if you wanted to go down that route? Cheers!
