this movie didnt kill WCW at all, it was, as someone earlier mentioned, Russo/AOL/Time Warner. Russo couldn't write his ABC's, let alone decent storylines. The Arquette thing, well it was dumb, but i had already seen the movie and loved it, so it didnt effect me much, i do remember kanyon getting thrown off the triple cage and being interviewed the following week on Nitro, he was in a neckbrace, but you could obviously see it was fake, since he kept moving his head. AOL/Time Warner wanted WCW out of the picture, and didn't care what happened afterwords. It's sad such a legacy of good stories and wrestling had to die so soon. The b*st*rds at WWE make pro wrestling a disgrace. Thank god for TNA, granted its not at the level that WCW was, but it has the potential. Whoever said TNA sucks has tunnel vision. Granted the mic skills are lacking, but then again if you're tuning in for mic skills, stick to the morans at WWE
I hope Vince gets whats comin to em, and WWE goes out of business. O HAPPY DAY.
TNA is the future, and WCW will be sorely missed, but it is fun to see the old days with this movie, granted its one of my top ten movies of all time!

That may be the case, but we all know this movie killed itself. How can this movie, of all movies ever made, make your top ten?
Could it be because you have seen ten movies?
It's not because I hate comedies, it's because you like bad ones.
Real comedies come in the shape of Little Miss Sunshine, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and Thank You for Smoking.

peak, u are going to have to realize one day that people dont look at movies exactly the same way as everyone else. dont be slamming me because i like this movie. not everyone is going to drool over ferris bueler and thank you for smoking (altho ferris bueler IS in my top ten and i enjoyed thank you for smoking quite a bit). my point is, stop attacking me because i enjoy a film that ISNT like a little miss sunshine, that isnt like the great comedies of our time, THATS THE POINT. you like movies your way, i like them mine, and just because 432938237 votes say a movie sucks on here or rotten tomatoes doesnt mean right away that i have to hate it too. this movie has a place in my top movies because it has major nostolgic humor, dumb jokes, and is a movie that me and my dad quote almost EVERYDAY. your academy and your french foreign leigon or whoever the hell runs the golden globes is not what i base my opinion of a film on. now im not saying that you do either, i know that all the movies that you critique you watch all the way through, so dont get the impression that im saying you like a movie because the academy likes it. its just that you and them seem to have a similar taste in film. thats completely fine, im just saying that a film doesnt have to have every critic making love to himself or herself over a movie for me to say, you know what i like that movie. why do you think rocky horror has a cult following, why does quinten tarrinteno owns the 16mm film of 'Manos' The Hands of Fate, why did a movie like planet of the apes get such a good reception, the list goes on. a movie is what people want a movie to be, and that is something everyone needs to understand.
NO SPRINGS!!!
