Sam's Thread of Chattin' w/ Jake & Other Robust Subjects

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

While it does they probably want it to fit with the New 52 so they can try to market as much of that. Plus there's always the need for that one token character.

 

[Lee]

I meant more sense to drop. Imagine the world you could have with Aquaman.

 

[Coco]

I just got back from Thor. Same feeling I had after MoS and Wolverine: I've seen this all before. How long before the masses start becoming as indifferent as me?

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

The moment comic book movies all start to drastically under-preform on a consistent basis I assume.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Philomena > Thor

Hope I have that right.

You should've seen Philomena instead. It's better.

 

[Coco]

Hard to see Philomena when roughly half the screens in town are playing Thor.

I clearly need to move to a larger, more cultured city. I'll start looking for rooms to rent in Saskatoon.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

If I can see it in Stoke, you can see it in that place you live.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

I clearly need to move to a larger, more cultured city. I'll start looking for rooms to rent in Saskatoon.

I geeked out a little when I saw this place-name as I'd actually heard of it before. Although the song was by a Canadian so it's not so out of place that he mention it.

Jake, what's Philomena about? I've had a hankering to go back to the cinema but since Iron Man 3 being ridiculously over-hyped I've been cautious as to what I throw a tenner away on.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Dame Judi Dench has her child taken off her and put up for adoption when she's a teen in a magdalane laundry. 50 years later, with the help of Steve Coogan, she goes on a continental trip tr track down her long lost son.

Jake calls it "The best film I've seen this year (excluding actual favorite films of his he's rewatched)"

It is actually bloody hilarious. And Steve Coogan does his "cunt" schtick without being annoying.

 

[Mantaur Rodeo Clown]

How was RAW, Jake?

Unrehearsed, Unscripted, Uncooked?

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Excellent. I haven't enjoyed my past few wrestling shows because I think I'd been too many. So after taking a few years off I enjoyed it.

It wasn't a great show by any means. What kind of lazy booking results in 3 handicap matches! But the atmosphere was good throughout. Enough to make some of the crappier matches worth watching (avoid the Diva's match on Superstars though!).

WWE are missing a trick if they don't promote a Wyatt/Shield match in the near future.

Oh, and I bumped into Jack Swagger. He's deceptively huge. By bumped into I mean bumped into. We apologised to eachother.

And Akasana. Or at least somebody I think was Aksana. Hard to tell with the women, innit. If it was her she was buying some paracetamol, she was very nice to my daughter and her tits looked ridiculous.

 

[Uncle Sam]

A new Mrs. Jake?

 

[Y 2 Jake]

It is the look I go for. The pretty from afar kind.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Black hair? Im pretty sure she is the only one who isnt obviously recognizable that has it.



Unrelated, but I enjoy how the WWE is clearly going to accidentally sabotage Total Divas by making it TOO blatantly just an extension of wrestling television. That clip they showed before the Kidd-Fandango match was cringeworthy, but also hilarious

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I saw her the side. It was my daughter who told me it was Aksana. She apologised for standing in front of her in a line. Y'know, with the child being quite short and all. Then I think my daughter spoke to her about something. I didn't ask what, I wasn't that curious.

 

[Mantaur Rodeo Clown]

On a scale of current Sean Morley to Val Venis, how sultry was the atmosphere in that line?

Did you hear saxophone in the background?

 

[Y 2 Jake]

It was in Boots. There's nothing sultry about that place. Apart from when you walk down the ladies products isle.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Oh, I thought you meant the black one! Alicia Fox - that's who I was picturing.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Oh, I thought you meant the black one! Alicia Fox - that's who I was picturing.

No, no, she is unmistakeable. With the humanoid head/face an all that

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I would've licked Alicia Fox if it had been her. Beautiful lady. However, she does look like the endoskeleton of the female Terminator. And I take exception to her belly button.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

The Hunt with Mads Mikkelsen, not quite as good as Kevin Bacon's The Woodsman but still a brave film nonetheless, although I would have preferred a less ambiguous ending.

Troy - the answer to a pub quiz question of 'Name a film where Sean Bean doesn't die'. Also, it's easy to forget how much it suffers without Eric Bana's presence. I do miss him.

 

[Lee]

National Treasure's another.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

If my next bi-annual pub quiz venture doesn't include that question then I'll be pissed. Speaking of pissed, the last quiz I went to was the first one at my new job and a guy who previously seemed to be quite intimidating turned out to be a massive Robbie Williams fan and squared up to the quizmaster on the subject of his first solo hit.

 

[Lee]

Freedom?

Second to last pub quiz I was in I got into an argument as to the capital city of Kansas. He said it was Kansas City which is in Missouri.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

FInally got round to watching The Wolverine. It was my third try, I feel asleep the first two times.

I shall forgo a star rating, and go with the letter "U", for Unecessary.


The fuck did that movie accomplish? The credits scene was infinitely more useful and interesting than that entire boring-assed two hour movie
