So what’s the big deal with this commercial, anyway?

VIDEO – The Introduction of the Attitude Era
From RAW IS WAR, back in December 1997.
Never actually saw this in its full entirety, so it’s cool to be able to watch this.
VIDEO – Impact Zone Audience are UNPAID CAST MEMBERS
…as evidenced by this video post earlier this year.
Wow… just wow.
(2018 Update: After a long time coming, I finally found the video in question… on Youtube of all places. Hey, at least when the new owners of Impact needed cast members to fill the audience, they made an effort to pay the poor bastards. This is sad and one of many reasons why TNA under Dixie Carter was seen as incompetent.)
VIDEO – No More Reversioned Power Rangers… Here's A Montage
I may be the only person who’s sad about this… oh well.
VIDEO – Some Other Dude Helps Us Understand ECW
Obviously, someone else is on screen and I don’t know him, but he makes good points.
The guy who did this awesome video has a TNA blog and it’s pretty good. Check it out here.
Hulk Hogan: The Next Billy Mays?
According to this article, Hulk Hogan is going back to be a TV pitchman and is aiming to be the next Billy Mays, who was the TV pitch-king until his untimely death in June 2009. Hogan used to do some commercials for Right Guard and the like many moons ago. And he did do an infomercial for his grill a while back.
You know what? I’m about the furthest thing from being a Hulkamaniac as you can get. I honestly don’t care for Hulk Hogan as far as his wrestling and acting careers go… but he could be a great pitchman actually. The next Billy Mays? I doubt it; Mays had that intense energy and charisma that made his informercials exciting and energetic. I doubt Hogan will be able to achieve that level, but he’s got the charisma to be almost as good and maybe make a name for himself in the field.
It’s worth a shot… if he sticks with it. And if he does, I wish him all the best.
No Matter How Hard You Try, It’ll Never Really Go Away
Yeah, I prefer this Spider-Man over… whatever that thing is now.
I’m hoping someone comes along and retcons Quesada out of existence… or at least out of Marvel.
Later.
VIDEO – The Dragon In My Dreams
James Rolfe’s short film, The Dragon In My Dreams, is quite possibly his best work yet… having nothing to do with Angry Nerds or Board games outside of a couple clips, it touches on a childhood memory and I almost shed a tear watching it. Good job, James.

GUEST VIDEO – The Entire Monday Night “War” In 4 Minutes
YouTuber Cardium has compiled a beautiful clipshow detailing TNA’s attempt at Monday Night Domination. It is much better than anything I can put together, so I’ll just leave the video embedded here for all to enjoy.
GUEST VIDEO – The Rock. The Coach. ESPN.
The man formerly known as The Rock meets up with the man formerly known as The Coach in this brief ESPN clip. (2018 Update: Once hosted on the ESPN site, this bit has been preserved by Youtuber FreeformAggie.)
