SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT/PRO WRESTLING

(Following the product the way you'd read a novel. Not jumping to the latest written chapter, but just picking up where you left off.)

Watched The Longest Yard in preparation for a POST Wrestling review og it. 

PRO WRESTLING GAMING

FIRE PRO WRESTLING WORLD

Day 3 of the NJPW World Tag League 2019

 

WWE 2K20 UNIVERSE MODE

(Going through what would've been 2K21's Universe calendar) 

NXT TakeOver (surrogate for War Games)


THRILLER THURSDAY

Resident Evil (2002 Remake on PS4 but on PS5). I was a big giant scaredycat and the game didn't fail to WHOOP my ass from jump.

 

 STAR WARS

NEXT UP: The High Republic: Light of the Jedi


DRAGON BALL Z

NEXT UP: Z Warriors Prepare

Still haven't seen it. I'm trying to watch them at 5PM to evoke that old 1998 feeling.

 

GOING THROUGH THE YEARS OF FILM/EARLY 20th CENTURY WORLD EVENTS

NEXT UP: The Haunted House (1921)

Buster Keaton is awesome. I love his facial expression and how it almost looks like he's no-selling something that someone else would probably react in an exaggerated manner to. This film kind of reminded me of Spook Louder from The Three Stooges (the first Stooge short I saw that made me fall in love with them) with all the creepy characters inside the house that was really just a thieves hideout.

Also, right around this time, future inaugural WWWF World Heavyweight Champion, "The Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers is born.

 NEXT UP: The Nut (1921) Starring Douglas Fairbanks

The film grabbed me immediately from the jump with the way it envisioned how future household technology would look like. It was very much like those Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons that would do the same thing. Fairbanks was endearing here. I also enjoyed the transparency special effects of you being able to see Fairbanks traverse through the pipes of a house.


NEXT ON DECK: Hard Luck (1921) Starring Buster Keaton

I love Buster Keaton and his facial expressions or lack thereof. It makes him ever so endearing as well as funny. In the beginning of the film he's very suicidal with all of these botched attempts on his life including one where he tries to hang himself off a branch from a tree at a zoo. Soon after he volunteers on some mission where the boss asks him if he has any background in any branches of science and Buster's response is that he was once attached to a branch at the zoo. Buster's work is DEFINITELY staying in the rotation and I will watch his career with great interest.

Wrestler Antonino Rocca was born around this time.

Stanislaus Zbyszko defeated Ed “Strangler” Lewis for the World Heavyweight Championship in New York City at the 22nd Regiment Armory in front of 10,000 fans.

NEXT UP: (All 1921) The High Sign (Starring Buster Keaton)(YAY!), Now or Never (Starring Harold Lloyd)(He's cool too),  Felix Goes on Strike (all ten seconds of it), The Goat (Starring Buster Keaton)(Appropriate title) and Among Those Present (Starring Harold Lloyd). Boy, I'm eating GOODT next time.


TIMELINE OF THE WORLD/LITERATURE

The book: The Bible

NEXT UP: Ecclesiastes 6

Wealth, a long life, and a lot of kids are meaningless if you aren't able to enjoy them.

NEXT UP : Songs 3  GOING THROUGH THE YEARS OF FILM/EARLY 20th CENTURY WORLD EVENTS Today's film : Nothin' I nixed watching The Decorator as well as the other Hardy shorts on my list. I haven't been pleased with my progress as I feel like I've been stuck in 1918-1920 for forever. The Hardy and Laurel solo shorts weren't doing much for me other than just looking through the lens of the late 1910s. So I think I'm going to play it like real life. If a movie simply looks good or is notable enough then I'll check it out while calling possible audibles here and there along the way. Hopefully this will make things move at a more preferable pace for me.

Reluctant allies, Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman are in a feud with T-Bar and Mace.   PRO WRESTLING GAMING WWE 2K26 One thing I simply detest in this game is the disrespect of your time. Especially if you're an adult who's just lucky to get a sesh in. If I'm going to lose a match I'd rather eat the fall myself than dominate my opponent but then have my tag partner have the inability to kick out of a pin.

TIMELINE OF THE WORLD/LITERATURE The book : The Bible Today's entry : Proverbs 23 More Solomonic wisdom going over self-control, gluttony and parental guidance.  GOING THROUGH THE YEARS OF FILM/EARLY 20th CENTURY WORLD EVENTS Today's film : Huns and Hyphens (1918) I really enjoyed the special effects stunts in this one. There was an Assassin's Creed-esque dive off of a barn roof onto a pile of hay. There was tussle in the middle of the street where the two brawling men narrowly avoid getting flattened by a trolley. Furthermore, there was one of those hanging-precariously-from-high-atop-a-building-roof stunts. My favorite one might've been the one where both men glide down from the building on an umbrella.
