I ramble about things.

More Details On The Upcoming MMPR DVD Sets

Set to be released in August, the first volume of many Power Rangers DVD sets will contain the first thirty episodes of MMPR Season 1 and will be closed captioned. More details along with the cover art can be found at the following link:

Three DVDs with ten episodes each? Looks like the earlier seasons might be broken up into two halves, while the later Disney seasons will probably only need a single volume to contain the whole series. And it probably would have been a longshot for something a little extra to be included onto the pile.
Oh well… As long as the price is right, I might pick this up… or perhaps I’d be better off waiting for complete season sets when those eventually get released. In the meantime, I still have Netflix.

Got a Memo…

Apparently John Cena overcame the odds again… Considering it’s against Brock Lesnar, I suppose it makes sense. In terms of the storyline, Cena needed the victory to rebound from that loss to Rock at Mania 28. And we can’t make Brock seem totally indestructible. Besides, John needed to get his win back from 2003, so I’m cool with this.

Haven’t seen the show, but a friend told me it was pretty good with solid matches all around.

Tower Of NES Clones

The tower of NES clones consoles that I had laying around, stacked together while sitting on top of my NES top loader. Once I was done with the clone comparison video, I ditched everything but the top loader and the FC Twin. Got a couple bucks for the FC3, but the rest were dropped off at a thrift store or something. Not that it would’ve mattered, anyway.

Steve Austin Lost His Balls

from wrestlenewz.com:

Steve Austin was asked on Twitter about his favorite WWE Diva. He replied with Kelly Kelly:

“She’s my fave Diva. Super nice young lady. Keeps improving in the ring. Very easy on the eyes.”

Everybody knows about Austin 3:16, but if you flip down a few pages, you’ll eventually come across Austin 12:45 and Austin 12:46, which states “Damn, son. I lost my damn balls! Does anybody have a WHAT?! for Steve Austin?”
I should probably read the next verse in Austin 12:47:
“And somewhere in the vastness of space, the Extreme Stunning Superstar shed manly tears.“

IMPACT (Apr. 26th, 2012) – First IMPACT in months…

So, against my bitter judgment, I decided to forgo my long standing directive to ignore TNA while Hogan’s on the air and check out last night’s Impact Wrestling episode, where they supposedly introduced new concepts to the show such as Open Fight Night and TV Champion Devon defending his title every week against worthwhile challengers. I’ve been keeping track of TNA through results and a couple clips here and there, so I figured I give it a shot, especially after RAW’s anemic effort.

Honestly, I thought IMPACT was a pretty good show… and I’m not just blowing smoke. I was thoroughly entertained by the show. It had some good moments and the wrestling was actually pretty good. So here are some quick random thoughts;

– Match between Bully Ray and Devon (who retains) was actually pretty good – far better than I would have expected the two to have. But I guess when you team with a guy for as long as these two, you tend to know what your partner is capable of and produce quality stuff. People have been given high praise to Bully Ray these past few months and I can see why. What few clips I’ve seen of his stuff on YouTube is not that bad and if TNA decided to give him a run with the World Title, I wouldn’t be against it because the guy deserves a run on top.

– Liked the fact that Hardy/Anderson ended up being fodder to Joe/Magnus, but otherwise, I thought it was a nice match that was enjoyable. Not much to say on this one…

– Hogan wants Eric Young to be productive. I second that notion… Holy shit on a stick, did I just agree with Hulk Fucking Hogan?!!

– If only he’d say the same thing to Eric’s boy… god damnit, man. You make me long for the days when David Arquette was WCW Champion!

(That was a lie. I never want that… ever.)

– Uncle Eric tossed into a porta-potty filled with shit… and you thought getting dumped into a garbage truck by Mister Mack-Man was an embarrassing way to go.

All in all, pretty good show. If TNA produces more shows like this, then I might actually watch this on a weekly basis… hell, I may even change the TNA tag… again.
