What are some rematches to classic matches that arent as well-remembered as their first match? I'd argue Steve Austin vs Kurt Angle from Unforgiven 01. Nowhere near as memorable as the Summerslam 01 match (though at least Angle won the title in this one).

Not giving Booker/Braun/Cessaro/insert wrestler here the belt at the peak of their popularity.

(since the Original thread got locked)
Figured I'd bring back this thread. I've said this elsewhere, but a lot of 70s police/detective/private eye type shows from the 70s seem to be forgotten, despite having numerous episodes and being huge back in their day. Columbo gained an unexpected following among young people (especially since it was so prominent on FAST sites), but as for others, Quincy is more known for the unintentional humor of the punk rock episode, McCloud is more known as an MST3K running gag, Rockford Files is more known for its awesome theme song, and stuff like Cannon and The Streets of San Francisco are only known to hardcore 70s tv fans.

Let's say Vince suddenly got disillusioned with the business by 2014 and allowed HHH to take over. Would he be doing better or worse than he's currrently doing?

Is there another decade that has such a distinct sound? You can find elements of 60's pop and 70's disco in music today, but with the 80's, it's like everything just stayed in that decade (with a few exceptions). I still see lots of elements of 80s dance pop in modern pop today.

I still think they should just have the pliot be about drug smugglers and call it Naked Gun 420. Yeah, it's not very clever, but it would fit the naming scheme of the sequels (2 1/2, then 33 1/3).

Here's one: Pac-Man 2600. Yes by now we know what a letdown it was. But how many of us still played and enjoyed it back in the day? On that note, the first TMNT game for NES.

Phil Hartman reprised his role as Captain Carl from the Pee Wee stage show on Pee-Wee's Playhouse, while starting his first season on SNL.

He's started making changes, what other ones could he make?
1. Being able to lift a sledgehammer is now a requirement at the performance center.

I actually got the game when I renewed my Nintendo Power subscription. One of the few NES games (along with the original Mario and Duck Hunt) that my family loved, we spent nights playing the game and it was awesome once we beat it.

You'd need a lot more than just 5 minutes.

I'd be interested if they did what they failed to do in the first movie and use Mattel IPs rather than imply that Mattel = only Barbie. Put the Hot Wheels universe into it somehow and you can include Nascar Barbie (yes, it exists).

I just saw the Barbie movie. I thought it was well-done and all, but I noticed it pretty much has a definite ending. However, you know Mattel and WB want to cash in on all the success, do you think they'll go for it, and if so, what will be the plot?
