Fox had a few stumbles later on, but it never really seemed like they were embarrassed to be making comic book movies, as much as they didn't quite understand what made certain properties successful in the first place. So their main weakness was more when they picked filmmakers who should never have been working on a certain film, rather than a more endemic problem that taints every film. The big stumbling block that a lot of fans I knew seemed to have from the get-go was the decision to not use actual costumes. At the time, i defended it since the black outfits seemed more practical but I didn't realize how little protection leather actually afforded a person and, in all honestly, the characters still weren't wearing masks of any kind which is a flat-out stupid choice. In retrospect, it felt like they were trying to make comic movies while minimizing many of the comic elements. ParanoidObsessive posted... Supposedly, it's being hinted that the current plan is to keep the belt on Brock and then feed him to Roman as well, because the WWE refuses to rest until they've managed to brainwash us all into loving him in spite of the fact that everything they try just makes people hate him worse. His promo on Raw should be absolute proof that he could be the hottest heel the company has ever had if they'd just TURN him NOW. But they won't, because he still sells T-shirts, and all they can see when they look at him is Samoan Cena. The fact that Brock and Paul immediately challenged Roman really telegraphed what is a horrid plan, with Taker's supposed retirement playing the significance of the two being the only people will ever have WM wins. In general, Brock's last run was one of my least favorite title reigns since it was a completely absentee champion who didn't even do PPVs, made even worse by the fact that it was the only belt at the time. And, up until he challenged Reigns, I was scratching my head as to why they bothered giving Goldberg the belt at all since no matter how won at WM we wouldn't see much of the champ. ParanoidObsessive posted... TNA (sorry, IMPACT) They'll always be TNA to me, especially since this is a very TNA move. It really feels like nothing has changed despite Dixie being out. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:876687823] in Spider-Gee...
