    We seem to have the full card for Madison Square Garden. - Honor Rumble: (Only Jushin Liger on his retirement tour confirmed so far, I assume everyone else already not on the card will get on it just for the appearance) - Title For Title: NEVER Champion Will Ospreay vs RoH TV Champion Jeff Cobb - Dalton Castle vs RUSHHHHHHHH (I'd normally be a bit more excited for this, but Castle's been wrestling injured since he came back) - Women Of Honor Title Match: Mayu Iwatani vs Kelly Klein (I think Iwatani is the Champion. She was part of STARDOM's Big Three with Io Shirai and Kairi Sane as far as I know) - NYC Street Fight Open Challenge: Bully Ray vs [x] - IWGP Jr Heavy Three-Way: Taiji Ishimori (c) vs Dragon Lee vs Bandido - IWGP Heavy and RoH Tag Four Way: GoD (c) vs PCO and Brodie King (c) vs The Briscoes vs SANADA/EVIL - British Heavyweight Championship: Zack Sabre Jr (c) vs Tanahashi - IWGP IC Title: Naito (c) vs Ibushi - RoH World Title Ladder Match: Jay Lethal (c) vs Marty Scurll vs Matt Taven - IWGP Heavy: Jay White (c) vs Okada Wrestlemania weekend is going to be horrifying to keep up with

    Best Robert Zemeckis Movie?

    Roger Rabbit was one my fav movies as a child, haven't seen any of the rest (I don't think I've even seen a full scene of Back to the Future)

    Best John Carpenter Movie?

    Ye, I've always meant to, and always meant to see more JC movies in general.

    Best John Carpenter Movie?

    I've only seen Escape From New York and Big Trouble In Little China. I took Big Trouble because that movie's just a perfect dumb-fun movie... but I've also only seen Escape once and if I watched it again I feel like that one could overtake it.

    I just finished a two-year weekly watch of Babylon 5 (someone else was rewatching it so I jumped on board because I missed that one back in the day). Shit was pretty good in some ways, and definitely shows its age in others, and you could see how DS9 lifted some of its concept from it (even down to the highly entertaining antagonistic frenemy/bromance thing with Londo and G'Kar, though very different from Odo and Quark). DS9 was ahead of its time, B5 was of its time. DS9 wove in social issues to go with the political, B5 mostly kept it political. DS9 seemed to have a larger plan but seemed scattershot in how they got there, B5 was intricately planned and executed to the point where even extenuating backstage circumstances and cast changeover that changed the storyline felt like it was planned that way. The episodes where all those plot threads finally unraveled were pretty awesome. I think it could've been better if cut down from 22 episodes to 15ish but it's also the '90s so it's harder to hold that against it. Season 5 of B5 felt like a big waste of time though, I guess J. Michael Strackjasfkjasfasfjkaski had planned it to be 5 season but they didn't know if they were getting the 5th, so they wrapped up the major storylines in the 4th, got the 5th later and then kind of just set up a bunch of new adversaries and future storylines that we never got to see play out. And unlike DS9 where the characters maintained or increased their likeability over time, a decent amount of the main cast had become unlikeable through their actions (half the time it felt like if you weren't in the room with them knowing they had good intentions, you would look at just their actions and think they were the villains). A lot of B5 really reminded me of how Mass Effect's universe was set up. There's way too many coincidences for it to not have heavily influenced it. It's a 3.75/5 series, maybe a 4 discounting the 5th season.

    Pokemon General

    I'm kind split on Sword/Shield tbh. I have Pokemon from as far as back the GBA games on my 3DS versions (got'em all except for a handful of Event Legendaries and I'm still working on Sun/Moon) but this is the first time that I didn't want to move them over to keep the collection going, especially because they charge for the Pokemon Bank and Online now. Also watching the Sun/Moon anime has actually done more for me connecting with the region and the new Pokemon than rushing through a 40 hour game like I normally do has Might wait on Sword/Shield for the anime to get going a bit and get into it a bit more. (Team Scorbunny even if it's Fire/Fighting)

    Best Coen Brothers Movie?

    No Country For Old Men by default because I haven't seen any others, though I thought it was a let-down by the end, they were going The Good, The Bad and The Ugly but swerved away from it. Sound was awesome though, I judge how serious someone is taking their movie/cartoon/anime/whatever by how much effort they put into sound and especially footsteps, that's a top-tier footstep-sound movie.

    Comic Book Movie Mini Tournament - Day 6

    Brutal draw. Just like Spider Man 2, I'd probably take Spider Man over most other movies on the list

    Best Quentin Tarantino Movie?

    Death Proof is acks my fav (tho haven't seen Jackie Brown or the last three movies, I have a sneaking suspicion I'll love The Hateful Eight to death when I get around to seeing it). Kurt Russell + all the car stunts + wildly entertaining twist at the end. Pulp Fiction was way overhyped by the time I saw it, Reservoir Dogs was p. good. Kill Bill 1 didn't hold up on a rewatch and Kill Bill 2 was disappointing on first watch so even though I'm a fan of both I do hold that against them.

    I'm currently playing Wind Waker HD on Hero Mode. I have 4 games left on my Xbox 360/Wii U backlog (Twilight Princess HD, Xenoblade Chronicles X and The Witcher 2) and I want to finish those up so I can just play Switch/3DS/Sony going forward

    One Piece [Anime Version]

    It's apparently 80% done, so there's more to actually read or watch right now than there's likely to be remaining in the series.

    Best David Fincher Movie?

    Se7en easily (though I guess because of Kevin Spacey it'll be harder to suspend disbelief on that one on a rewatch) Only other movies I've seen was Alien 3, which I remember feeling meh about but it's been a long long time since I've seen it so I don't know if that opinion would hold up, and Fight Club, which I stopped watching halfway through because I couldn't take the cringe-college-kid-wisdom of it seriously.

    Best Steven Spielberg Movie

    Saving Private Ryan because that's the only movie on the list that I'm 100% sure I've seen from beginning to end.
