    And Kevin Nash played shredder in the movie. Everything has a trail back to pro wrestling somehow..........

    He played Junk Yard Dog in the WWF Rock N Wrestling animated series according to Jayk.

    Yeah, same here.
    Worst thing is I'm a Wedding Photographer myself, so picking someone else is pretty difficult. That said, it's the only thing I get to sort - she's in her element organizing everything.

    I think the photographer was the most non venue part of the wedding for us, but after getting the photos back it was more than worth it

    My main problem is that three of my best mates are Wedding Photographers too! Have to let two down. Gonna be awkward. Unless I pick none of them, I guess?

    I didn't know Nash was the voice in the TMNT movie. Mad. It was an awful movie all the same. Superio Mario was worse at the time, but not by much.

    Gonna probably have to cut costs as much as possible for my own as it's looking like we might actually have 2! course my missus is from Taiwan so it's kinda believable that people might not be able to travel etc

    loved uncle Phil myself, he will always go under that moniker for myself too as whenever I saw him in something else even though I recognised the name James Avery I thought uncle Phil

    I'd no idea James Avery was the voice of Shredder.

    Very sad news. Most father figures on TV shows, particularly comedies, come across as just goofy clowns who don't have much of a moral influence on the family. The character of Uncle Phil, whilst funny, was also one of the few examples where the character also felt like a really good person. Probably one of the best TV father figures that I can think of.

    I was like that too until recently then when you listen to him again its fairly obvious.

    Have any of you lads bought wrestler gear from extremewrestlingshirts.com before? Would be handy to get some positive reviews before dropping 50 bucks. Also, what's the deal with American hoodie sizes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,888 ✭✭✭Charisteas


    Just reading a bit more about James Avery (ahead of a marathon run of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air episodes this weekend) and he was also the voice of The Junkyard Dog in the Rock and Wrestling 80's cartoon. Also Jeff Pollack who was a writer and producer of The Fresh Prince, also died around 10 days ago.

    I'm sure you noticed boards.ie was down for maintenance yesterday - there might be some posts missing and posts repeatedly posted. It's all sorted now though.

    Luckily it was down during a PPV-free Sunday and not during Royal Rumble Sunday!

    Pilot nearly crashes into a UK near Heathrow.

    I wouldn't allow that man fly a plane again until he's seen a shrink.

    There's a lot of money to be made off those stories.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 787 ✭✭✭Deadlie


    I thought the same. Has to be a money grab thing. Still, risking a career to sell stuff to the National Inquirer seems like an odd move.

    Did you ever see the Louis Theroux documentary about UFOlogists? It was amazing. This tiny town in the back arse of the US where there's UFO sightings nearly fortnightly. He went out and they saw nothing at all. They did show him these guns that looked like Nerf guns though, but were these totally legit, awesome, magic alien death rays. They were safe to use on humans, but the leader had killed thousands of martians with them.

    Missed a trick not telling Irish press it was a Banshee


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    I slag these losers off as mentals but I still read/listen to that ****e just because they're always great stories. It's never just somebody seeing a UFO in the distance, it's an alien poking you in the eye on a spaceship just a few mile over Carlow. Shame it hasn't taken off in Ireland like it has in Yank.

    I prefer the mentalists we have here.

    Remember yer man telling people to stare at the sun in Knock and they'd see Holy Mary? And 5 people were nearly blinded. Or all those auld wans with angels on their shoulders keeping sketch for them? I worked in a bookshop a few years back and we'd one coming in telling me my angel was very distressed. She came in and would say prayers for me. You can't beat a good mammy mentalist.

    My family are mad into Knock alright and I think they went to see that eclipse.

    I was at Knock a few years back, thought it was dull as hell.
