Review - The Flintstones (1994)

        Hey guys, Chuck here. After taking a look at the 2002 film Scooby-Doo,  it only made sense to dive into another live-action adaptation of a classic Hannah-Barbera cartoon. So, this is my review of the 1994 film The Flintstones , released by Universal Pictures, directed by Brian Levant, and starring John Goodman, Elizabeth Perkins, Rick Moranis, Rosie O'Donnell, Kyle MacLachlan, Halle Berry, Jonathan Winters, Richard Moll, and Elizabeth Taylor.         The movie opens at the offices of Slate and Co. in Bedrock, where Cliff Vandercave is plotting a money embezzling scheme, where Cliff and his assistant Ms. Sharon Stone (no, seriously, that's actually the character's name) will live large on Mr. Slate's money on the beaches of Rocapulco, and all they need for the scheme to work is a complete ignoramus from the rock quarry.         After a recreation of the iconic Flintstones intro, we start the movie proper,...

Review - Scooby-Doo (2002)

Núñez Jr. Sam Greco, Steven Grieves, and Rowan Atkinson, with special appearances by Pamela Anderson and Sugar Ray.        The movie opens with Mystery Inc. wrapping up the caper of the Luna Ghost, who had been hauntin...

My Thoughts on WWE Royal Rumble (2025)

      Hey guys, Chuck here. One thing I want to do a lot more of this year is share my thoughts on a few of the WWE premium live events. And, yes, this will include the forthcoming WrestleMania . But, before we get to the Showcase of Immortals, we have the annual Royal Rumble . So, here are my thoughts on the 2025 edition of the WWE Royal Rumble .        So, the way the Royal Rumble match works is as such: thirty WWE Superstars will enter the match, starting with two Superstars at the beginning, and subsequent Superstars enter at intervals of two minutes. The way for a Superstar to eliminate an opponent is to throw them over the top rope. But, both feet must hit the floor for the elimination to count. The last WWE Superstar standing wins the match, and is guaranteed a main event spot at WrestleMania , with a title shot for one of two WWE Titles: the World Heavyweight Title or the Undisputed WWE Title for the Men's Royal Rumble , and the Women's World ...
