My guess is it ends with her debut on the night after Mania, which is a shame since we won't get her relationship with ADR, the fall from grace with drugs, the leaks ahem., her eventual return to WWE almost immediately followed by her forced retirement due to injury. The movie looks like it's just going to be fart jokes, though, so that probably wouldn't really fit with the tone.
88% on Rotten Tomatoes. Wow.

Huh, Catch-22 is actually a mini-series, not a film. Interesting.

That IS shocking. I mean, it shouldn't be. I like everybody involved. The Rock is obviously great but Stephen Merchant is also hilarious so having him as writer/director should definitely boost the film. But still, that trailer is baaaad.

On the Basis of Sex: enjoyable, though nothing spectacular (we know who will win, we can predict what kind of speech will deliver the victory, etc.) Still, quite interesting to realize how many utterly stupid backward laws/precedents this country had until not so long time ago.

And, the moral of the story: you can be a brilliant tax lawyer, Harvard may name some hall after you - but you act like a backward a-hole, and now for generation(s?) you will indeed be remembered as a backward a-hole who did this:

(pretty early in the movie, so not exactly any big spoiler)

When Mrs Tif was born, there were still like half a dozen states where interracial marriage was barred by law.

Hollowman. Really bad stuff here, not quite so bad it’s good but def bad. Sorry Kevin Bacon.

Wall Street. Good for the time it was made but it seemed awfully rushed near the end.

Rhona Mitra makes up for the rest of the movie.

Yea she's great at all, but let's not forget Elisabeth Shue.

I agree with you re: enjoyable, though nothing spectacular.

I enjoyed Hollow Man. That said:
A direct-to-video stand-alone sequel called Hollow Man 2, starring Christian Slater and Peter Facinelli, was released in 2006
What in the holy F happened to Christian Slater's career?

I haven't looked at it in a while, but I remember feeling the same way. It seemed Charlie Sheen's character flipped really quickly.

I think I'm okay with it. I think Smith is going to nail the role.
I think this is going to be the movie that makes Disney rethink it's whole live action remake approach.

Looks beautiful. I just hope there's a decent story to justify a sequel and not just more $$$. Also will be interesting to see how they try to top Let it Go.
