  1. On this week's episode of Power Rangers Super Megafarce: Episode 7: "Silver Lining Part 1" Introducing: Cameron Jebo as Orion/Silver Ranger The Rangers scramble to battle scores of X-Borgs in town, only to discover that someone else has gone one step ahead of them in taking out the trash. Well, here's a surprise. In contrast to Super Sentai fanboy Gai Ikari in Gokaiger, the Silver Ranger here is an alien who's out to avenge his planet after being the only survivor of his kind. Aside from recycling action footage from episode 17 of Gokaiger, this episode has more new footage than before. Changes to the monster of the week fight include the Rangers changing into the Lost Galaxy (Seijuu Sentai Gingaman) suits instead of the Mighty Morphin suits. As usual, most of this episode makes no sense compared to the source material. "Now that's a Super Mega Fail." Next time on Power Rangers Super Megafarce: Episode 8: "Silver Lining Part 2" More action from that alien guy.
  2. You know what bothers me about this? Normally, when a current or former WWE Superstar passes away, WWE posts a tribute video immediately. It's been about three days, and WWE has not done one for the Warrior. Meanwhile, three people that once hated the Warrior the most paid their respects via Twitter: "We are all so sad that the Ultimate Warrior has passed away. Our heart is with his wife Dana and his two daughters." - Vince McMahon "Saddened to announce the passing of the Ultimate Warrior. Icon and friend. My sympathy to his wife Dana and his daughters" - Triple H "RIP WARRIOR. only love. HH" - Hulk Hogan WWE Superstars React to the Ultimate Warrior's Passing

  4. This is the David Brown Automotive Speedback GT, a modern tribute to the classic British grand tourer. The company was founded by a guy named David Brown, who is not related to Sir David Brown - whose initials are on nearly every Aston Martin produced over the past six decades. The Speedback GT is built in Coventry and uses a supercharged 5 liter Jaguar V8. 2014 David Brown Automotive Speedback GT

  6. Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery Hanna-Barbera/WWE Studios/Warner Bros. Animation Studios/Warner Bros. Home Video, 2014 Directed by Brandon Vietti (The Batman, Young Justice) Based upon characters created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears (before they founded Ruby-Spears) Running Time: 83 minutes Rated TV-PG for "sports entertainment". Cast The Mystery Inc. Gang Frank Welker (Megatron in The Transformers, Ray and Slimer in The Real Ghostbusters) as Scooby-Doo and Fred Jones Matthew Lillard as Shaggy Rogers Grey DeLisle-Griffin (Wasp in Ultimate Avengers 1-2, Arcee in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen) as Daphne Blake Mindy Cohn (the fat chick in The Facts of Life) as Velma Dinkley WWE Mr. McMahon John Cena Kane Triple H AJ Lee Brodus Clay Santino Marella The Miz Michael Cole Guest Cast Charles S. Dutton (Dillon in Alien³) as Cookie Mary McCormack (Justine in Murder One) as Miss Richards Bumper Robinson (Falcon in Avengers Assemble, Bumblebee in Transformers: Animated) as Ruben Fred Tatasciore (Samuel L. Jackson in Team America: World Police, Hulk in Avengers Assemble) as the Ghost Bear Corey Burton (Spike and Shockwave in The Transformers, Megatron and Ratchet in Transformers: Animated) as Bayard and the ring announcer Synopsis Scooby-Doo and Shaggy win an all-expenses-paid stay at WWE City to see WrestleMania. But when the Mystery Inc. Gang arrives, they discover that the town has been terrorized by a "Ghost Bear" over the past few weeks. After a recent bear attack, Mr. McMahon hires the gang to solve the mystery for the security of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt. Story: C- Take your typical Scooby-Doo! plot and fill in the blanks with WWE Superstars. And what do you get? Well, another Scooby-Doo! story, but with wrestlers. You have the same recycled formula that contains the following tropes: The Mystery Machine breaks down or crashes just in front of town. The town is being terrorized by a ghost. Scooby and Shaggy spend most of the film running from the ghost while Fred, Daphne, and Velma look for clues. The gang sets a trap for the ghost, but it typically doesn't work perfectly. "... And I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids! And your dang dog!" And just to be hip with today's crowd, Fred has a digital SLR camera, Daphne has a smartphone, and Velma has a tablet. Nothing says "cash grab" like this film, which tries too hard to cater to both fans of Scooby-Doo! and the WWE Universe. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same issue Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling had during its broadcast: It's outdated. Vinnie Mac, John Cena, and Triple H will never change and AJ Lee is hot, but no one cares about The Miz, Santino Marella or Brodus Clay (especially since Santino recently retired and Brodus was just released). This would've been better if it came out in 2012. As a matter of fact, the release of this film was apparently delayed because CM Punk was originally in it, and we all know what happened to him. For the most part, the voice acting is tolerable. Frank Welker's version of Scooby is a good rendition of the late Don Messick's version, even though he does talk too much. The WWE Superstars themselves are not bad; good thing Stephanie McMahon and Vickie Guerrero are not part of the cast. Perhaps the single most disappointing part of this film is the fact that not once does Vinnie Mac yell, "YOU'RE FIRED!" - not even in the ending. After all, animated or not, he's Vincent Kennedy McMahon. Animation: B- I'll give the Korean animators props for staying faithful to the late Iwao Takamoto's original character designs, but cel-shading the Mystery Machine just isn't the same. At least AJ Lee proves that just like Jessica Rabbit, she's not bad - she's just drawn that way. Soundtrack: C Aside from using WWE entrance themes, the score by Ryan Shore (Stan Helsing) is mostly unnoticeable. The Bottom Line Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery lays the smackdown on itself and crashes through the Spanish announcers' table. References The Internet Movie Database
  7. WrestleMania XXX is coming this Sunday, April 6. Here's the card so far, along with my predictions: WWE Championship: Randy Orton © vs. Batista vs. (Daniel Bryan or Triple H) The buildup to this match has been nothing short of disastrous, so the WWE bookers decided to make it a triple-threat with either Daniel Bryan or Triple H as the third man. Hopefully, they'll set it up just like WrestleMania XX, with Bryan in Chris Benoit's position as the underdog. Battle for the Third Spot: Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H At this point, this could be the end of nearly a year of corporate politics screwing Bryan over. If HHH wins, expect a huge riot. Undefeated Streak vs. the F-5: Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar Forget it - UT's not gonna lay down for anyone at WM, regardless of his age. John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt Yes, this is a waste of Wyatt's time, but if he wins, championship gold will be right on his doorstep. Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal Thirty of the most underused Superstars try to throw each other out for one trophy. Unfortunately, all the really good wrestlers such as Christian and Dolph Ziggler will not win this match. It might end up in the hands of either Big Show or The Great Khali (probably as a reward for becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen). Vickie Guerrero Divas Championship Invitational Current champion AJ Lee better watch her back, as thirteen other Divas will be after her as punishment for insulting the SmackDown General Manager. This also means AJ cannot trust her own bodyguard, Tamina Snuka. Normally, I'd call this a piss-break, but there's been some slight improvements to the quality of the Diva matches. Six-Man Tag Team Match: The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins & Roman Reigns) vs. Kane & the New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James & "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn) In a surprise turn of events, The Shield turned face, effectively debunking all rumors of disbandment. For the most part, expect them to win. Pre-Show Kick-Off - WWE Tag Team Championship (Fatal Four-Way): The Usos (Jimmy & Jey) © vs. Los Matadores (Diego & Fernando) vs. The Real Americans (Jack Swagger & Antonio Cesaro) vs. Ryback & "Mr. Imperfect" Curtis Axel What we have here are eight more of the most underused Superstars in the current roster - all fighting for free on YouTube. If anything, Swagger and Cesaro will win this match. BTW, Ryback and Axel are still around?
  8. No new episode this week, but stay tuned on April 5, when the Silver Ranger makes his debut. I wonder how Saban will screw this up...
