VLOG – Picked Up The WCW Nitro DVD

VLOG ADDED

ORIGINAL POST
Kinda sad that they had to condense six years worth of history onto a single 3-disc set, but for the most part, I actually liked this one and thought it was a pretty good compilation. I’ll probably go into further detail in a VLOG or something, but there’s quite a bit of good stuff here. Some stuff I can recall watching back in the day (the Lex Luger World Title win, the Bret Hart/Goldberg encounter in Toronto, the dreaded Fingerpoke Of Doom being a few examples) and then there’s stuff that I missed the first time around that I’m actually surprised they put in, such as the whole “reboot” segment in 2000, the Sting/DDP World title match where Sting would have a one-hour title reign before dropping it back to DDP on the same night, and the other Triple-Decker Cage Match.

If there were any complaints with the content, it’s that three discs isn’t enough to showcase some of the amazing stuff that WCW Nitro had produced during its tenure, and even during its final, limping days, there was just some good stuff hidden in there.

All in all, this is a nice little set. Here’s hoping they do a second set.

VLOG – Suburban Knights… the new TGWTG project…

In case the video doesn’t load or you just want to read, the text is after the break.


So I just recently saw the teaser for the 3rd Anniversary Project of the That Guy With The Glasses website, which is apparently called Suburban Knights, and apparently from the gist of it, they’re on a quest and they’re wearing costumes… you don’t get to see a whole lot, but… yeah.

You know, just watching the teaser alone, I have a feeling that this is going to be on par with Kickassia as far as the overall quality goes and anyone who has read or watched my little review of Kickassia will know that this is not a good thing. With that having been said, however, I am actually cautiously curious to see how this one turns out… maybe this one will actually be good, for once… or maybe this will turn out to be a steaming pile of paper… who knows until the final product comes out?

All I know that I’m coming into this with very low expectations… that is, I’m willing to give a chance to entertain me and validate investing my time watching this project, but I am not going to buy into the hype or hold it in high regard. I think that was my mistake with Kickassia – I was expecting something amazing and ended up with paper… by the way, you can substitute paper with your expletive of choice… and yet the first anniversary project, which involved a bunch of people playfighting, was much more entertaining to me because I had no real expectations. It wasn’t any good, but it was pure stupid fun. And that’s what I liked.

So Suburban Knights… when it comes out… I will most definitely be watching, but I will coming in expecting this to be fall apart… I’m not saying it will, I’m not saying it won’t, I’m not saying anything that implies that I’m going to like or dislike this movie before I even watch it. I’m just saying that I have very low expectations as to how this turns out, which means if I get at least ONE good laugh out of this for the right reason or maybe even the wrong reason – because that certainly wasn’t the case with Kickassia – then it’s a step up from my vantage point.

So, Doug Walker and all you folks at TGWTG… please don’t fuck this up. It’s all I ask.
