Do you think WWE should acquire movie rights for the Network? Personally, I would love to see Jingle All The Way on the Network.

Nah, it's a slippery slope, in my opinion. You start with stuff like No Holds Barred, which would actually fit on the Network... to showing movies like Jingle All The Way that just has a cameo for one scene. From there, you start showing WWE Studios stuff that has nothing to do with wrestling.
i like it the way it is... all wrestling, all the time.

They're really missing out if May 19th isn't Kane Appreciation Day complete with See No Evil being shown.

I wouldn't mind them uploading WWE Studios films. Maybe then I'll finally watch Knucklehead.

From there, you start showing WWE Studios stuff that has nothing to do with wrestling. i like it the way it is... all wrestling, all the time. Even that's the "hopeful" slippery slope. You start with the WWE Studios/No Holds Barred films that star pro wrestlers...then you go to WWE Studios stuff that has nothing to do with wrestling...then movies that have WWE wrestlers in roles, whether it's as big as a Dwayne Johnson movie to as small as a Jingle All The Way one scene cameo...then you go to "Movies that have the same action, comedy, or drama that the WWE Universe loves"...and then you're just showing the same 50 movies every other cable network- or cable network that WWE is airing on- shows, only they find some dodgy excuse for why it works later like, for example- "The YES! Movement cheers Daniel Bryan as he fights the Authority...now, watch Andy Dufresne fight a cruel authority! "Shawshank Redemption", only on the WWE Network!"

Absolutely not. That's the downfall of every specialty network.

I'd be cool with them adding the movies they've produced to the archive but yeah, only ones that should ever stream are No Holds Barred and, specifically on May 19th, See No Evil.

the only movies they'll even get are ones they own. and nobody with a Netflix account is going to cry about not being able to watch 12 rounds 2 anymore.

If it has Bodyslam I'd be ok with this.
Actually adding a section I would see as ok but don't do the live streaming with movies.
