I have no idea what the hell Vincent Kennedy McMahon was smoking when he approved the pitch for “Big Apple Takedown,” but I can’t wait to read it. Wrestlers tapped to play secret government agents busting up meth rings? This book is gonna be gold
December 2001: Vince McMahon steps out of a snowy night into a diner in upstate New York for a meeting with old friend Phil Thomson, now a highly placed government official. Thomson has a strange proposition: creating a new covert black-ops group using the Superstars of World Wrestling Entertainment. The WWE’s talented men and women are perfect. Highly skilled athletes with the ideal cover, they travel all across the country and the globe; no one would find it unusual to find them in a town one day and gone the next. The government would train and support the wrestlers in every way possible except one: no one must know the truth. March 2006: The Superstars have been handed their latest assignment - take down a commercial-grade methyl-amphetamine plant that is bankrolling terrorist activities in Europe. Their mission seems simple and straightforward, until a member of their team is taken prisoner. Now all that they’ve worked so hard for is in jeopardy, and one of their own might be killed…..

That will be gold. Seriously…WWE should start producing some direct to DVD movies. I mean, if Marvel Comics can do it with their audience, wrestling would definitely be able to. I wonder how well those “Divas Undressed” videos do?

Direct to video? Murray, did you miss this? The WWE is attacking the theaters directly!!

Wrestlers already appear in great fiction. Their “autobiographies.”
However, I will be reading this.
And surprisingly, See No Evil’s trailer doesn’t look any worse than any other teen slasher flick.
Personally, I want to see live action superhero movies starring rasslers. HHH as Thor…he already has the hammer.

Yeah Steve, I saw that, but I’m more interested in what Stacy and Torrie are doing than that ugly bugger Kane! However, all slasher films are usually good for some gratuitus nudity, so hopefully this one is no different (perhaps I’ll watch it on the movie network!)

HHH as Thor would be great. WWE direct to video movie would be a great idea. i always thought back in the 80-90 they could do a Power Ranger type show where the characters like Undertaker, Hitman and HBK morphinto giant robot of themselves and fight giant monster. Than I realize that drugs were bad and clean up my act :)

HHH as Thor? Really?
I’d prefer someone who can act like Thor. Provide an air of elegance and godliness. HHH would be like Biker Thor from the Hulk TV movie.
NO. NO. NO.
FUCK NO.

To any and all idiots that don’t know shit about movies.This is what I would like to say:HHH is the only real choice for Thor!!!Period so,shut up and quit whining for metrosexual skinny arm sensitive guys as the actors for super heroes.Where are all the men that watched Conan!?!Are you just not going to say anything!?!Arnold cannot act but,he made millions as a bad ass that everybody loves!!!So did Stallone as super hero Rambo and even more unbelievable Rocky atleast any movie after the first one.Jean Claude Van Damme in Cyborg,a genius movie that plots a twist to a Terminator like movie and
Road Warriors.These movies are timeless and we love them and miss those types of movies that are not made anymore.Because,Hollywood is over feminized!!!HHH is the one guy to save Hollywoods lackluster action film industry!!!He can act he does it for a living and imagine what he would do as Thor.He would bust his ass to get that role right if,if he took the part.I love HHH as an actor and a performer.His resiliency to allow other people that suck and make them look good is his good nature to promote everyone equally.I can only hope that his time finally comes to truly shine.The Rock is the one that sucks,or John Cena as a rapping gangster he could do 8 and a half mile.The sequel to Eminems movie that way he can suck on a whole new level of suckiness.Then all the little wannabe white kid rappers can simultaneously rip their John Cena shirts off.Then cheer for Bigshow,HHH,Kane or someone else as long as its not fake or short like Mysterio.Thanks for reading vote HHH for Thor stand up as men should quit being silent.Its not like Hollywood is ever going to take the male audiences opinion and actually listen.But,maybe Mr.Mcmahon will and make a deal with Marvels Stan Lee.Lots of money,lots of money to be made off that Thor movie.Think about it lots!!
