MoS

I had Austin at no. 12, and I am now feeling guilty. *slinks off quietly into into the shadows*

Is Taue the only one whose rank has remained unchanged from 2006?

I am glad that the Team Austin v. Team Bischoff match was mentioned. It's probably the only time when I have liked his ridiculously exaggerated and theatric selling and facial expressions. I am curious at seeing some saying he was a good grappler. I can see why he would be considered an excellent worker, but I don't think working holds was his strong suit. I would like to see someone explain that.

Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels are still in this, and will likely end up very close to each other. Man, if this was the late 90s/early 200s, I am pretty sure people would have been exchanging death threats by now. Bret Hart beating El Dandy in the countdown is oddly fitting.

This is legit funny. I thought the same thing as well haha.

Curious to see where Styles will drop. He was 301 in 2006 and received a grand total of 2 votes, so this has to be the biggest leap. Unless he has already appeared, and I have missed him like a complete doofus.

I can imagine Grimmas tapping his figers and laughing at all of us heathens as we discuss and whine and speculate on who's number one and number 10. The Force is with him.

Kong was my no. 15. This is sad.

Oh come on. Robinson down but not Lesnar? And I even voted for Lesnar, but this is too much.

I don't even remember where I had Breaks ranked, but his ranking is a disappointment. Had I watched more, he'd totally have been higher. I was thinking the people who had seen much more WoS would rank him considerably high.

Wish you all the best, my friend. You seem to have been extraordinarily brave in your reaction, all things considered. Pretty sure if I had cancer, I would have driven myself and my entire family mad. Hoping to keep hearing more good news. Also hoping that you don't get your wish of seeing Ric Flair win the GWE, but I am petty that way.

Ah, Owen has dropped. Should have checked first.

I think, even more than Shawn, Curt, Lesnar and Owen should drop soon. I am not saying they are bad wrestlers or anything, but we are approaching top 50, and that should be reserved for the best of the best.

Wait, has Punk not dropped yet? A top 60 position for him is way too high imo.

Welp, I will give an unpopular opinion again. To me, many of DDL's most famous performances remind me of Dean Malenko - technically flawless, but having no soul or emotion. His My Left Foot performance being a prime example. I did love him in Lincoln though, and liked him a lot in Gangs of New York.

I appreciate the fact that Citizen Kane was revolutionary for its time due to the techniques and methods used for filmmaking, but I am not sure if I will put it on my list of GOAT films because, well, it just does not entertain me to that extent. It might be due to the insane hype behind it, but I do not think that tells the whole story. The Godfather also is insanely hyped, like it was when I watched it the first time, and of anything, it over-delivered. I still randomly watch clips of some of my favourite scenes from the movie. The look on Pacino's face when he says it's not personal, it's just business, is pretty bone-chilling. At that instant, you realise that he is moving away from being the good son, and he will soon be at the point of no return.

It's crazy that Angle has actually climbed spots from 2006. I would have thought his fandom would have been at its peak ten years ago. Now, hopefully Shawn falls soon as well.

I know, and I never blamed WWE for being squeamish, although the Sunny example is also relevant here. I merely said that I hope our society soon gets to a place where the stigma around porn goes away, at least as far as the actors who participate in it are concerned. I am not going into the wider debate about exploitation and other criticisms.

Hoffman could be someone like Eddie, in a way. Rarely the main guy, but ridiculously great in every role he did. Struggled with drug addiction, which ultimately claimed his life. Danish, I love your Rock analogy, and like your Welles one, but - and this might be an unpopular opinion - I fucking hate Citizen Kane. Well, not hate, exactly. But I think it is terribly overrated.

If you take nothing but the absolute best performances, then Brando might win this. However, if Dylan's consistency measure has to be followed, then there is no chance. Way too many stinkers throughout his career. Post-prime also changes things. My personal GOAT is Robert De Niro. His run from Mean Streets, Bang the Drum Slowly in the early 70s to Jackie Brown - I must be the only one who loves that movie - and Analyse This in the late 90s is surreal for how unbelievably great it is. But if you include post-prime, then the dozens of giant turds he has laid the last 16-17 years or so will count against him. If you are looking for a limited run of concentrated quality, Pacino's work from 72-79 might be untouchable. I think - and I am probably in the minority here - that with the exception of a few gems, Pacino faded away strongly after the 70s, but that run is gold. It's like Samoa Joe's 2002-2006 run. Someone like Kevin Spacey could be compared to Rey Mysterio: he has quietly been good-to-excellent throughout his career. P.S - Goodfellas losing Best Picture to Dances with Wolves makes less sense than Triple H getting a number one vote.

Start a thread inviting opinions on who the better wrestler is - Ric Flair or Bret Hart. Talk about formula and having the same match every night.

This is not the place to discuss it, so I will be short: I hooe we as a society reach a stage one day when working in porn does not carry a taboo for its actors. Right now, people who make homophobic statements don't get nearly as much controversy than porn actors, and I find that completely ass-backwards. RIP Chyna.

Different strokes about charisma, I guess. I've watched a lot of Hogan footage, and Parv and co. have also made me watch a hell of a lot of Bruno, but to this day, I haven't seen a wrestler connect and get basically claimedd by the audience as their own the way Austin was. Of course, he is my most favourite wrestler ever, so I am obviously biased. I am interested in where Austin lands. I thought I was going to be the high vote on him, but then Jingus said Austin was in his top 10, so that is not happening.

I am not following the product, but is Reigns turning heel, or teasing a turn? In any case, it is refreshingly different from Cena's "You have every right to boo me, you excellent, important people!" shtick.

Okay, Kurt needs to drop soon, dammit.
