Dai Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Didnt think the book would be enough to stop them/him trying to cash in even more, though. When you can have things like Ivory spending 2 hours talking about a single year in WWF history, then having Foley spend 4 hours talking about the 90's doesnt seem that crazy. Â Someone mentioned Venis going over 1999 coming out soon. That would have been perfect for Foley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted April 18, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 18, 2012 has anyone else listened or watched any other shoots they could recommend to me ? Â If only there were a thread with about 40 pages of recommendations, links and reviews to wrestling shoot interviews THAT YOU HAVE POSTED IN that you could look at for such information.

Pier Six Brawler Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I see RF have a Tajiri shoot, supposedly in English, but also with optional subtitles. I can see it being a train-wreck to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brain Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I enjoyed the Shane Douglas YouShoot that was recently released. In fact most of the YouShoot's are fairly entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Four Horsemen Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Just downloaded the KFC Shane Douglas ECW 1994 timeline and also the Honky Tonk WWF Timeline. Â Also just got the new, New Jack RF Video one. My god does he rip Terri Runnels a new arsehole or what? Brilliant, well worth 2 hours of your time if you get chance.

Â are the YouShoots the onses with the smuggest man on the planet in a suit and supermark divs videoing in questions like how man guys did Sunny sleep with? If so I hate them as the host and the divs ruin any potentially good interviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supermark divs such as people who frequent wrestling message boards?  Far superior than Rob Feinstein's shoots, he seems to know less and less each time I watch as his questions sometimes aren't even relating to the guy he is interviewing.

If so I hate them as the host and the divs ruin any potentially good interviews  Yes that's him. I sort of agree with you, he does scream of somebody trying to get himself over with wrestling fans. I didn't used to mind him until he started taking himself very seriously accusing WWE of stealing his ideas (The Bret / Shawn DVD - because he filmed Greg Valentine and Tito Chicko talking about their feud once) and coming off like a tit in the process. I also noticed whenever he puts out trailers he often puts a little disclaimer at the front stating something to the effect of, "the views expressed are of the speaker, and not Kayfabe Commentaries, its associates or business partners" seemingly unaware of the fact he is the only one taking his shit seriously, and by even putting up a message like this he comes across as somebody trying to think they're a big shot, when they're clearly not. However considering the majority of the audience he pitches to just downloads his stuff for free, I'll cut him some slack. He must love what he does.

I like that Oliver has done interviews in this format, as it is totally different to the same formulae that RF has been doing with the clich Edited April 18, 2012 by The Brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fye Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Definitely, I dont mind the questions coming in that bring up good topics but the example you gave about Batista are the ones that drive me crazy. I think all I am after is someone I can learn something from or someone who has interesting stories to tell. I could easily sit and watch someone point a camera at themselves and do a bit of a video autobiography and the RF stuff is closer to that than Oliver getting himself over. I also think the Guest Booker type concepts are pointless if its what I think which is re-booking an historical period cos its been and gone and doesnt mean anything but the straight up interviews minus the divs can be enjoyable. Â I think as a lot of people have told their stories they need to keep them fresh when they're back on so I understand why they try t change things up, I guess I just like simpler interview formats personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
