    I loved the original Syndicate. Can't wait to play this game.

    WWE SummerSlam Results Pre-Show Kickoff - United States Championship Rob Van Dam def. Dean Ambrose by DQ after Roman Reigns speared him. Ring of Fire Bray Wyatt landed the "Sister Abigail" on Kane. See No Evil 2 to start production immediately. Cody Rhodes nailed the Cross Rhodes on Damien Sandow. World Heavyweight Championship Alberto Del Rio made Christian tap out to the Cross Armbreaker. Natalya locked Brie Bella in the Sharpshooter. No-Disqualification Brock Lesnar put CM Punk in the F-5. Mixed Tag Team Dolph Ziggler & Kaitlyn def. Big E Langston & AJ Lee after Ziggler landed the Zig Zag on Langston. WWE Championship - Special Guest Referee: Triple-H Daniel Bryan landed a flying knee on John Cena to become the new champion... BUT WAIT! During the celebration, Randy Orton appeared to do a brief staredown with Bryan before walking away. Then, without warning, HHH squashed Bryan with the Pedigree. Orton then cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase and covered Bryan for the pin. Orton is champ again.

    I found myself another guilty pleasure: The Internship. It's an intelligently stupid comedy about two has-been salesmen (Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson) signing up for an internship at Google in hopes of landing a job there by the end of summer. Critics have mostly hated it, calling it a full-length Google commercial, but that's just them. Still a hilarious film to rent.

    With a string of positive reviews (68% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a worldwide box-office earning of US$549 million, Ted receiving a sequel was nothing short of expected. MacFarlane tweeted a possible release date of Passover 2015. Universal Pictures later on confirmed that Ted 2 is slated to hit theaters on April 3, 2015. MacFarlane is currently working on his second live-action film, A Million Ways to Die in the West, which hits theaters on May 30, 2014. Ted 2 Release Date Ted 2 Set for April 2015 Ted 2 @ IMDb

    What if the Ford GT were not discontinued. Galpin Auto Sports, home of Pimp My Ride, recently unveiled their Ford GTR1 concept, their vision of what a second generation GT would look like. Under the hood, the 5.4 liter V8 is mated to two turbochargers, resulting in a massive jump to 1,024 bhp and 739 lb-ft torque on 91 octane gasoline. Galpin estimates a 0-60 acceleration of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 225 mph. Galpin Auto Sports is planning to build up to 24 examples of the GTR1, with a carbon fiber version costing US$1.02 million. Each GTR1 is constructed from a donor Ford GT, supplied from GAS or the potential buyer. 1024-HP Galpin Ford GTR1 Revealed at Pebble Beach

    The first generation Porsche 911 will always be a timeless classic. No matter how many redesigns and technological advancements the 911 has undergone over the decades, auto enthusiasts still look back at the model that graced the streets from the 1960s to the 1980s. And while the Singer Porsche 911 is actually a reskinned 964, this "Sleeper" by DP Motorsport is a 1986 model that has undergone a rigorous diet, shedding 617 lbs. to tip the scales at 1,995 lbs. The 3.2 liter boxer-6 engine has been tuned to generate 270 bhp and 226 lb-ft torque. Suspension has been replaced with Bilstein shocks and Porsche 964 Carrera 2 brakes. And unlike the Singer 911, this Sleeper can be obtained at a more reachable price: €89,911. 1986 DP Motorsport Porsche 911 Sleeper

    "If I could be serious for a minute..." - Lance Storm Time for a little rant. For the past decade or so, the WWE has been suffering in quality and TV ratings due to a lack of competition. Then, a few years back, it was speculated that TNA was that much-needed competition. Unfortunately, the company has stumbled on its own share of problems. Once the home of up-and-coming stars such as AJ Styles and Samoa Joe, TNA - just like WCW - started bringing in Sting, Hogan and countless wrestlers past their prime. Present-era superstars such as Kurt Angle, RVD and Christian also jumped ship to TNA, but to varying degrees of success. Christian was champion during the time TNA was still part of the NWA, but he does not consider his reign as a high point of his career. RVD held the TNA title for just one day. Angle has held the TNA title the most number of times, but he's currently undergoing rehab after yet another DUI arrest. TNA even tried to restart the Monday Night Wars in 2010, but in less than six months, Impact! couldn't take the heat and moved back to Thursday nights. TNA can't even get their storylines right. No one cares about these wanna-be bikers that call themselves Aces & Eights. Giving Bully Ray the belt does not make him better than his days as a Dudley Boy. Chris Sabin, who was TNA Champion this past month, can't draw a crowd simply because he's too much of a nice guy. And this was evident when he beat Bully Ray last month; the crowd cheered not because Sabin won, but because Bully Ray lost. Making matters worse is TNA and Spike TV's attempt at cross-promoting MMA by bringing in Rampage Jackson and Tito Ortiz, who made the single worst surprise promo in the form of the August 1 warning. And how about those crowds. But then again, what crowds? Early this year, TNA decided not to renew their contract with Universal Studios Florida; as a result, the Impact Zone has been vacated. Since then, they've been bringing Impact Wrestling across some parts of the U.S. In venues that can hold at least 10,000 fans, they're lucky if they can fill up 1,500 seats before draping the back rows in black. Ring of Honor is obviously a smaller promotion with very little TV coverage, yet they manage to draw heavier crowds on a regular basis. As I had mentioned a few years back, TNA - just like WCW - is a promotion running on borrowed money. In 2002, just months after its inception, TNA was facing bankruptcy when Panda Energy heiress Dixie Carter begged her daddy to buy the promotion. It's been 11 years, and who knows how much money Panda Energy has lost since the acquisition? Word on the street is that TNA's roster is shrinking rapidly, with a dozen or so wrestlers being shown the door over the past month. It's inevitable that Vinnie Mac will spend his lunch money to absorb TNA soon, but that will continue to hurt the wrestling business due to the continuing lack of competition. To end this rant, I ask all fellow MWers this question: What's the best way to save TNA and the professional wrestling industry as a whole?

    It looks like Planes is this year's worst animated film. Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 25% - "Planes has enough bright colors, goofy voices, and slick animation to distract some young viewers for 92 minutes -- and probably sell plenty of toys in the bargain -- but on nearly every other level, it's a Disney disappointment." Metacritic Score: 39 out of 100

    It may be called Kick-Ass 2, but the critics are considering it as Suck-Ass. I'll just go YIFY this when the Blu-Ray comes out. Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 27% Metacritic Score: 44 out of 100 "Violent and crass, Kick Ass 2 features a strong performance from Chloe Grace Moretz but mostly fails to live up to the humor and captivating irony of its predecessor." ** 1/2 (out of 4). "One of the key aspects of Kick-Ass was the lampooning of superhero tropes; Kick-Ass 2 has largely abandoned this segment of its DNA and instead bought into them. Kick-Ass 2's desire to abandon the "parody" label and move in the direction of becoming an actual card-carrying superhero adventure edges the saga closer to Watchmen territory. By abandoning so much of what made Kick-Ass memorable, Kick-Ass 2 has devalued the nascent franchise and left vaguely unpleasant aftertaste." - James Berardinelli, Reelviews * 1/2 (out of 4). "Honestly, this movie is rank." - Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

    The Fantastic Four will undergo yet another reboot in 2015, after the 2005 film and its sequel failed to live up to expectations. Josh Trank (Chronicle) has been given the director's chair, while Matthew Vaughn (X-Men: First Class, Kick-Ass) and Akiva Goldsman (Batman & Robin, Jonah Hex) are on-board as producers. Screenplay is by Michael Green (Green Lantern) and Seth Grahame-Smith (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Dark Shadows). Filming crew has moved from Vancouver to Louisiana due to better tax incentives. Currently, no actors have been named to portray the Fantastic Four or Doctor Doom, though it was heavily rumored that Michael B. Jordan (Steve in Chronicle) was to be cast as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch, Miles Teller (Sutter in The Spectacular Now) as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, and Allison Williams (Marnie in Girls) as Susan Storm/Invisible Girl. The reboot is scheduled for release on March 6, 2015, and is said to share continuity with the X-Men series after Days of Future Past.

    I'm sure most kids picked up Erasure after playing that robot unicorn game. Sucks that you actually have to pay money to have the song in the new version.
