    India Bans Dolphin Shows; Says Dolphins Should Be Treated As "Non-human People"

    I have no issue with them banning the shows and banning dolphins in captivity but it is a nothing gesture if they allow other animals to be held in captivity. I don't agree with the non-human persons comment, they are still animals so there is no need to give them extra rights especially since...

    Deadly tornado

    re: Deadly tornado Thankfully the death count has been revised down from 91 to 26 but still it is a horrible toll. The power that these tornadoes have is just astonishing and it is shocking to see how it just flattened towns.

    Woolwich beheading

    Shocking incident, baffling how brazen they were to talk to people and just wait for the armed police to arrive before attacking. They wanted publicity and they wanted to make it as big a spectacle as possible. Can't really do too much about people like this, pretty sure that both were born in...

    Don Jon (2013)

    When he was presented with the script he thought that finally he could be the boss but he was wrong. Will have to see if they can maintain consistent accents for the entire film, don't know if they would get too annoying when watching it.

    Summarize and Rate the Last Movie You Saw

    The Birds Another Hitchcock film and this time it focusses on a series of widespread violent bird attacks over the course of a few days in a small town. The attacks begin after a young socialite, Melanie, decides to deliver a pair of love birds to a man that she met in a bird store. She...

    UFC 160: Velasquez vs. Silva II

    Hunt showed that he had a great chin tonight but JDS just has so much power. Hunt absorbed so many big hits but the power of numbers just got to him in the end, that spinning back kick was a fantastic way to finish the fight. Nice to see Hunt manage to take it right to the end of the third...

    Are you looking forward to the return of Suicide?

    He works behind the scenes with TNA. Has a great relationship with SpikeTV, I assume through his production company, so I guess TNA likes having that link between their show and the high power executives.

    Box Office

    True. For whatever reason normally these award organisations dislike anything that manages to be a huge commercial success and be a mainstream hit. They shouldn't assume that big money means poor quality just like the opposite is true.

    .Hollywood.'s Summer TV Preview

    The Blacklist should be a show that can easily run for a very long time, they can just keep adding pages to that Blacklist. It is on NBC so it will probably struggle for ratings since that network is poison at the moment, maybe this can be the show to turn it around. I can see Hostages...

    Box Office

    Not every movie needs to be an award winner. A good popcorn flick is a good popcorn flick. Numbers are in for Friday and Fast and Furious 6 grossed $38 million and is going to open huge. Hangover III has $26 million after two days and it is definitely looking like they made the right choice to...

    Carlos Estevez star of Machete Kills

    Nice little publicity stunt for the movie, gets it some more mainstream attention. I hadn't heard anything about it before this. Odd mixture of names in the cast, might have to check out a trailer of this just to see what the hell is going on.

    24 Returning to TV

    I agree with you, that is why I am not to sure about the new concept of skipping time rather than using that time to flesh out the subplots. You should definitely check out the last two seasons, especially the last one just to see how they ended it originally.

    .Hollywood.'s Summer TV Preview

    For new shows there are two that I am really looking forward to and will have to check out. k9_qgX7pTlc The Blacklist Raymond "Red" Reddington, one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives, surrenders in person at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. He claims that he and the FBI have the same...

    TNA Slammiversary XI Discussion Thread

    I shouldn't be surprised that Sting is getting another title shot but I am. Surely they see that it isn't the right way to use him, use him as a special attraction wrestler like how WWE use Undertaker. If they have Sting win the title and be TNA's saviour then they have lost the plot completely...

    Currently Watching 2.0

    ZwS14TiO7Pk As a Fresh Prince of Bel-Air fan this was just brilliant. To get not just DJ Jazzy Jeff but Carlton on the show as well to dance just made it so much better. Nice bit of nostalgia.

    Are you looking forward to the return of Suicide?

    Well it makes sense since the show has stagnated since he and Bischoff were signed. Ratings are the same and PPV buyrates are reportedly the same and yet now they have a much larger wage packet. TNA need to think hard about cutting ties with Hogan or just use him once or twice a year on a pay...

    TNA to Broadcast Live from Scotland

    Smart move since they are so strong in the UK market. May as well reward those loyal fans with perks like a live show, always a great audience in the UK as the fans get right into it.

    UFC 160: Velasquez vs. Silva II

    Another impressive win for Glover Teixeira. He was in control right from the start and Te Huna had no chance of victory here, nice guillotine to finish it. How close is he to a title shot? One more impressive finish or does he still need to add a couple of big scalps before taking on Jones?

    Are you looking forward to the return of Suicide?

    So he returned to the ring last Impact and won a triple threat X Division match to move into a match for the title. TJ Perkins is wrestling under the mask this time. Not a fan of this gimmick at all, just not a smart name for a character on a major show. The match between Suicide, Petey Williams...

    Impact Wrestling Returning to Old Time Slot

    Finally someone has seen the light in the TNA office. Was a dumb move initially to switch the start time to 8pm and the ratings showed that, every single week the first hour would be much lower than their normal rating and it also meant that they couldn't properly judge the impact that going...
