B: So Dave, we both saw Airplane! on DVD, tell us what you think! D: I mean... It was clearly shot on a set... B: It's a movie, Dave. Of course it was sho- D: Yeah, but y'know, it's like... I mean, you got frickin' Kareem Abdul Jabbar as the pilot, I mean come on... How are we supposed to... It's just like, whatever... It is what it is, I guess. B: Well, I liked it.

B: OK, let me stop you right there? D: What? B: This guy. Edward Norton...this whole movie he's been crazy and walking around talking to himself? D: Yeah. B: And we're suppose to believe that nobody called him on this? He's organized a FIGHT. CLUB. Where every week he shows up and talks to himself, rambles off a bunch of crazy poo poo, in front of a room full of people and nobody calls him out for being a lunatic? D: What can I say, it happens every week in the WWE writers room....and they go until 2am too!

B: So this Tai guy, this tiger has torn through all the other baby faces, just destroyed them and then... D: Snow Leopard B: What? D: He’s a snow leopard, not a tiger. B: Whatever. So he’s torn through all the other baby faces and this job guy Po starts kicking his rear end because he can imagine food? I was baffled! D: Total comedy match, but it’s y’know, popular with the kids, gets a good reaction. B: And then. AND THEN! He beats him with a submission FROM NOWHERE. We’ve never heard of this submission before and suddenly its his move. D: Wuxi Finger Hold, they showed it earlier in the movie, first used by Oogway as his finish, so it was passed down. B: Seriously?

So the top heel, he basically unmasks, except y'know, he doesn't actually take off the mask, but anyway, he acknowledges that he's been working that territory for a long time and that his gimmick USED to be Anakin Skywalker, and he tells the top babyface to join his stable or, um, or else, I guess. And then he squashes the kid! So Bruce Willis has, y'know, he's got this gun, A GUN, gimmicked to the back of his head, and we can see it but the heel can't, so he starts doing this worked laugh, then he takes the thing out and it's like, WHERE'S THE REF???

DAVE: It wasn’t a BAD movie, it’s just one of those things where, y’know, if you go into it knowing about the sled or whatever it’s just not that much of a. . .y’know? And, and! How the hell do they know what his last word was if no one was in the frickin room with him?!?! I dunno it was weird but everybody worked really hard, there were some creative spots for the time, and I get why a lot of people liked it. BRYAN: Filthy Tom loved it. DAVE: Of course he did.

So now that he's inflicted a critical back injury on this guy Tim Allen has to take on the Santa gimmick. He starts gaining weight on the road. Can't shave his beard. Gets in trouble with the law and the fuckin elves pull a run in with his kid and the stepdad has a face turn. They hosed it up big time later on in the promotion though.

B: okay, they set up this guy Sugar as— D: it’s Chigurh. B: it sounds like Sugar. D: it’s Chigurh. I called and asked. B: FINE. They set up this Chigurh guy as the ultimate badass, and— D: they say that in the movie but his real gimmick is that he doesn’t have a sense of humor. B: right! And he is just no-selling everything in this movie. Hitmen shoot at him, nothing. Moss gets him in the leg, nothing. Does surgery! On HIMSELF! Nothing! Finally—FINALLY he must meet Moss, right? There must be some shine for Moss, right? But no—Moss is killed. How? BY COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CITY! Are you kidding me? D: it’s what creative wanted. B: and then! Then! How does Chigurh get his comeuppance? Who gets him? Is it Sheriff Bell? NO! He retires! Who gets Chigurh? NOBODY. D: well, a car gets him. B: (quietly) this motherfucker gets hit by a car. And he Walks. Away. D: he no-sells the car, yeah. B: He no-sells a CAR! Why am I watching this?
