Should be Bloodsport 4, considering Daniel Bernhardt was in 2 and 3 as "Alex Cardo", with Pat Morita as his trainer. Then Bloodsport 4 is made, and Daniel Bernhardt is back as "Alex Cardo"... except he's fucking not, he's now "John Keller", and Pat Morita doesn't exist, neither does Alex Cardo, and it's an entirely different story.

haha, Manny Reyes Jr. reference.

Schwarzenegger probably has the best ones: John Matrix Howard Langston Harry Tasker John Kimble Ben Richards Adam Gibson Jericho Cane Gordy Brewer Ray Owens John Wharton But, a lot of them are prefaced with "My mother was Austrian, and I moved over to America".

Yeah, that's Drillbit Taylor.

Is that George Dillman?! Is he still peddling his shit?! II remember when one of his prized students tried his shit on Stephan Bonnar It reminds me of the "Kiai Master", who challenged "Any MMA Fighter", and this happened: Although, the greatest bullshit artist is Ashida Kim, who would have his $10,000 challenge, however, all the stipulations he had in place: - You have to post a $25,000 "Appearance bond", if you don't turn up, he gets to keep it - His fee is $10,000, which you must pay 30 days before the scheduled date - You have to pay travel, and provide lodging and food for him, and three other people - You have to hold the fight in a public place, and sell tickets to the event, which will be paid to him before the fight - You have to have the fight sanctioned, proving your physical fitness, and that your skills are worthy enough for him to even show up, and you're under the proviso that he could actually cripple, maim or even kill you if he wanted - The fight will be decided by - A 5-Second Pinfall (Two seconds longer than Pro Wrestling) - Knockout - Saying 'Matte' or perfoming a 'Pat-out' - Not answering the bell between rounds - If he fails to appear at the match - If a referee deems "Unsportsmanlike Conduct" Funilly enough, Ashida Kim and Frank Dux know each other.

We're British, we get it anyway, which makes it even more odd that he'd lie about being born in Canada.

There was a guy I went to school with, these are actually some of the lies he told: - My dad pulled a wheelie in a car - My dog jumped over an 8ft fence, without touching it. - My uncle calls me "Hacker", because I hacked into his computer with my PlayStation - I once drank so much Vodka, I threw up on the garden and it burnt the grass - I shagged the hottest girl in school over the weekend and I lasted 45 minutes... I started at the beginning of Friends, and finished half way through Frasier. He also made some other shit up, like how he's been places, and was born in Canada (why he would lie about being born in Canada, I have no idea, just seemed like such an odd thing to lie about). He just lied indiscriminately. But chopping a seagull in half and not being able to eat with a spoon because he can't trust himself with knives is incredible, it amazed me that people think that these stories would be believeable. I think Jack Dee may have met the guy you were talking about though haha One of his actual claims.
-
Some of his claims are incredible, like how he's the only man in the world to break bulletproof glass, with a single punch, barehanded. Just imagine if Chuck Norris made up the Chuck Norris Facts, but wasn't doing it as a joke. That's Frank Dux.
-
Okay, I just found a Frank Dux "fact" that made me laugh so hard that it made me go light headed. Frank Dux held a world record for winning a Tug of War... against 66 people... WHILST STANDING ON ONE LEG!!!!!!

Same thing happened at The Ultimate Ultimate '96. Tank destroyed Cal Worsham and Steve Nelmark with one of the nastiest KOs ever: And he was gonna fight Don Frye in the final, Don Frye had a long, tiring fight with Gary Goodridge in the first round, and was gonna fight Mark Hall in the finals. Frye had already fought Hall, and whooped his ass, so they agreed "Just tap quick, we both know Frye's gonna fuck you up, we don't need him fighting longer, or else Tank's gonna kill him). Tank would have killed him, but Frye got the single luckiest break in MMA history when the mat bunched up behind him and he tripped, and he managed to choke him. Royce wasn't actually that good of a Brazillian Jiu Jitsu fighter, having lost to guys like Wallid Ismael, which is one of the reasons they picked him for the UFC tournaments, because it was a case of "Hey, this is one of the weaker guys, and his fucking everyone up, imagine what one of the better guys would do". But he does have an ego, he was on another show, and he said "People will be interested in the history... I am the history". There was actually a guy I went to college with, and he claimed to be a "UFC Fighter", and he was regailing me with these stories of his fights (baring in mind, he was 17 at the time), like the one time he got his arm broken, but knocked the guy out, with his broken arm, and how he took an elbow, and it opened up a cut from the top of his eyebrow, to the bottom of his nose, and it was, in his own words "Pissing blood", yet there was absolutely no scarring on his face. What he didn't know, I actually covered MMA as a side job/hobby, and pretty much knew the ins and outs of it, so I knew he was full of shit. So, I kept the bullet in the chamber, until he announced "Yeah, I'm training for a fight now, it's a qualifier to get into the UFC", so I asked "Oh, who are you training with?" considering I knew most of the teams in the country, and could have set up an interview at any time, he said "I'm just with my uncle". Then I dropped the bomb "So, which show are you on? Because I'm currently with a website, I'll cover it, do a piece on you" to which he said "Uh... well... it's... uhhhh... It's an underground thing, it's proper illegal, I shouldn't even be telling you about it". And he never spoke of his fight career ever again.
-
Not so much fixed, but they definitely stacked the deck. Tank Abbott talked about how he wasn't allowed to enter the tournament until UFC VI. There was also talk of Aleksander Karelin entering UFC IV, he was so close to signing, Rickson Gracie went into training to enter instead of Royce, be Karelin would have reduced Royce to a stain on the mat.
-
I love that the early UFC pay per views were just insanely effective infomercials for Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Because they put in Royce, who was considered one of the weaker members of the Gracie Family, and he beat other martial arts experts. I also love that the first UFC introduced the world to a Sumo Wrestler named "Teila Tuli" Does he look familiar? He should, because he was also in Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Here's something that not many people know. Frank Dux got into a fight with a guy named Zane Frazier, and proceeded to get his ass royally kicked. Because the the ass kicking, "Nasty" Zane Frazier was then invited to compete in a no holds barred tournament, tentatively called "The Ultimate Fighting Challenge". Zane Frazier is best known for a fight in Brazil, where he rolled out of the ring, and knocked himself out on the floor. Frazier also revealed some other stories about Frank, including one time where he tried to have Frazier and his wife killed for the ass kicking, and had some of his students attempt to rob a bank as a part of their "Ninja Training", although, shit like that is to be taken with a fistful of salt. And, on an unrelated note, I saw Stephanie Beatriz mentioned, she follows me on Twitter, and I think she did it by accident and is too nice to cancel it.

Bad movies, that should be remade because the potential is there.
Smigg replied to WTF?MichaelDorn's topic in How Did This Get Made?
Mortal Kombat, with the success of Deadpool, it's proven that an R/18 Rated Comic Book/Video Game can prove to be successful. On top of that, Warner Bros. own Mortal Kombat, so they have the budget to make some that could essentially be the R-Rated Avengers. On top of that, because Warner Bros own DC Comics, and there has been a "Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe" game, as well as the excellent "Injustice" game, so they can really explore that possibility. A Mortal Kombat movie, filmed in 3D, with the enhancements in Special Effects, and (more importantly) fully embracing the mythology behind it, you'd have something incredible. -
They're missing a trick, they need to focus on the JCVD-less sequels, they're fucking bonkers to borrow a term from Jason. Considering that all three of the sequels star the same guy, but for some reason, in Bloodsport 4, he's playing a completely different character, in a completely different story, and the other two movies don't exist. In Bloodsports 2 and 3, he's "Alex Cardo", so you'd expect him to be the same in number 4?! NOPE! He's fucking "John Keller". The best part of it all is, the posters for the movie all had the same picture
-
Yes, do this.

How dare you say anything bad about Hatebreed! (I just remember that song from it, and I hate to admit, I really liked it). Although, I've just looked at the soundtrack, there are two sides, "The Heavy Metal Side" and "The Xander Side".

I'm still campaigning for them to do this movie. Purely for my own, self-indulgent nerd out session that the thread would provide.

I went into this movie expecting "13 Assassins" (If you haven't seen 13 Assassins, just watch it, it's one of the most fucking amazing movies ever), I came out of it all "Bleh".

This movie also shares the name of a band I like (I think they were actually named after the movie), so there is that.

Don't forget "Due South", I'm positive that that would be on Canadian Netflix http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zgZulxezEw

The story of Dolph Ludgren's accent in Masters of the Universe was actually parodied in an episode of Metalocalypse. Dethklok sign on to film a movie named "Blood Ocean" and the band's Swedish guitarist, Skwisgaar Skwigelf's accent is so thick, it makes his lines absolutely unintellegable, forcing the producers to dub his lines in post production. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-byEO6DlrTE
