Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

jakespick Like Wrestlemania X-Seven and Wrestlemania 3, XXIV was of the more "classical" Wrestlemanias that I've ever seen. It brought back that feel, that "Mania Feel" that I hadn't experienced since X-Seven.What really helped this event was the decisions behind the match card, and where the matches were placed. Ending the show with two upsets and an excellent one-on-one title match, that wasn't over-hyped, with the Undertaker was a brilliant decision. Another great choice was to start the show off with a fast paced, quick street fight, or as it is referred to here, a "Belfast Brawl." The show had something new to offer for each match, and had no "card fillers" as you would expect from seeing many Manias in the past. The problem with the WWE is that they over-hype Manias like 20 and 25 and try too hard to make them good, and they come out as stinkers. For some reason they feel the need to fill the show by having 12 matches, and every title defended. Nobody really cares about the Tag Team titles or the Women's Championship, they want to see matches like the Ladder Match and the three main events. They want to "feel" Wrestlemania, which certainly happened in the Flair vs. Michaels match, and the very emotional outcome. But most of all, they want to be surprised.And boy did this show have some surprises, not to mention the wonderful choice of CM Punk winning the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. What everyone seems to be talking about when they think of XXIV is Orton's win in the Triple Threat. This was a brilliant move by the WWE, and I'm sure it was a last minute decision (note the poll that was taken early on in the show, I'm sure they based who won on the lowest percentage of people who voted for that person, which just happened to be Orton thankfully). The Triple Threat was great, I think, because it was so well set up - you had the two big comebacks over the past year (HHH and Cena) who were both potential Champs following Mania. But if there's two hyped comebacks in one match? Together? For the title? At Wrestlemania? How can you possibly make the best of it? You turn it into a triple threat match with the most unlikely winner on WWE, and there you go...Now to The Biggest vs. The Best. I was pleasantly surprised at the excitement I had while watching this match, and watching Big Show's interaction with the crowd, which made it all the more entertaining. Big Show always seems to be the first in line for these kinds of odd-ball matches, like his Sumo Match at 21 (which wasn't as exciting, but still interesting). Mayweather walked away with the win, by knock out, which was partly surprising and partly expected. A great match nonetheless.Finally, we arrive at the main event: World Heavyweight Championship. They under-hyped this match so much that its brilliance was unexpected and was an amazing choice for the main event of the evening. Undertaker truly was put to the challenge, surprisingly, by Edge in this match. The crowd in this match helped out a lot, as they did with many other matches, and really brought the event to life in the last 30 minutes of the show, making Taker's win all the more special and appropriate.Of course, in the "good-bad-good" trend that WWE's Manias have been following over the past couple of years, I didn't expect much from the 25th Anniversary, that truly was one of the dullest and most laughable Manias I've ever seen, a real dive. By "good-bad-good" I of course am referring to the trend started around 18 or 19, or even 20, where it goes from a good Mania, to a bad Mania, to a better Mania, to a horrible Mania. With 26 being an improvement over 25, obviously, as bad as it was, I think I may just vomit thinking about how bad 27 could be.Oh well. All I can do is hope for another XXIV.

kliko400 Wrestlemania XXIV was a great show which had great matches, good memories, good story lines and hype. I would definitely say that this Wrestlemania was better than last years {Although last years was a great Wrestlemania as well}.FIRST MATCH- JBL VS. FINLAY W/ HORNSWOGGLE IN A BELFAST BRAWL MATCH An okay way to start Wrestlemania with this Belfast Brawl match which has had a great storyline behind it. It was pretty brutal with lots of weapons used such as kendo sticks, tables, trashcans etc. Good match, JBL wins after hitting Finlay with the Clothesline From Hell. 6/10SECOND MATCH- MR. KENNEDY VS. JOHN MORRISON VS. CHRIS JERICHO VS. CM PUNK VS. CARLITO VS. SHELTON BENJAMIN VS. MVP IN A MONEY IN THE BANK LADDER MATCH This was by far the best MITB that I have seen, although one problem is if it could have gone maybe a extra 5-10 minutes longer. Highlights are definitely Morrison doing a moonsault on the outside holding a ladder at the same time. Also Matt Hardy made an unexpected return & nailed a Twist Of Fate on MVP from a ladder. CM Punk grabs the briefcase & wins the MITB Ladder match. 6/10THIRD MATCH- BATISTA VS. UMAGA IN A RAW VS. SMACKDOWN SUPERIORITY MATCH Started off slow, but picked up pace later on. Could of been a good match but it was kept pretty short as Batista beat Umaga with the best Batista Bomb I have ever seen {Even though I hate Batista}. 5/10FOURTH MATCH- MARIA & ASHLEY VS. BETH PHOENIX & MELINA IN A TAG TEAM LUMBERJACK MATCH SPECIAL ENFORCER: SNOOP DOGG I had low expectations for this match, as Diva matches at Wrestlemania seem to be very boring. But I slightly enjoyed this match, because off new wrestling moves shown by the Divas throughout the match. Santino distracts Maria, enough time for Beth Phoenix to nail her Brainbuster move for the win. After the match, Snoop Dogg knocks down Santino & surprisingly locks lips with Maria. 5/10FIFTH MATCH- RIC FLAIR VS. SHAWN MICHAELS IN A CAREER THREATENING MATCH IF RIC FLAIR LOSES, HE WILL HAVE TO RETIRE FROM WRESTLING Good enjoyable match that had that Wrestlemania feel to it. Great submission wrestling holds were used through this match, as Ric Flair despite his age sure can wrestle. Michaels hesitates, then tells Flair "I love you" before nailng Sweet Chin Music on Flair for the victory, as Flair's prestigious career is sadly over. An emotional match it was as we should expect, as Flair was very tearful after his match. 6/10SIXTH MATCH- CHAVO GUERRERO {CHAMPION} VS. KANE FOR THE ECW CHAMPIONSHIP Kane won the 24 Battle Royal earlier to earn a title shot. Very short match with Kane nailing a Chokeslam on Chavo for the easy victory. May be short, but it was priceless as Kane has finally won after all the benefits he has done for the WWE such as competing in lame story lines. 5/10SEVENTH MATCH- RANDY ORTON {CHAMPION} VS. TRIPLE H VS. JOHN CENA IN A TRIPLE-THREAT MATCH FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP I was very surprised to see this match placed too early on the card, as I honestly thought it was going to be the mainevent. I was a bit disappointed as to how short this match took, should of been longer. Randy Orton covers Cena after a HHH Pedigree for the win to retain his WWE Title. I honestly did not think that Orton was going to retain, good job WWE. 5/10EIGHT MATCH- FLOYD "MONEY" MAYWEATHER VS. BIG SHOW IN A NO HOLDS BARRED MATCH I enjoyed this match very much, as Floyd Mayweather is just not worth $20 Million. I liked how Big Show was beating Floyd up, until the end of the match, where Mayweather would knock Big Show out with a brass knuckle for Big Show to be knocked out for the 10 count. 6/10NINTH MATCH- EDGE {CHAMPION} VS. UNDERTAKER FOR THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP This was by far the best match on the card. You can feel the intensity, the rivalry and the hype behind this match. Lots of nearfalls and counters made this match just plain enjoyable and pure entertainment. Edge even breaks out of Undertaker's tombstone finisher during the match, Undertaker catches Edge in his new submission to get the tap out victory, keep his undefeated streak alive and winning the World Heavyweight Championship for the 6th time. Kudos to both men as this is what you call a Wrestlemania main event. 7/10This was a very enjoyable Wrestlemania, even better than last year's. WWE put a very good effort on this event, that made it worth watching. Some matches were short, but that was about it. Still this is one Wrestlemania to talk about. Good job WWE.Overall I'll give it 8/10 & a B+

Lula-25 This years wrestlemania was better than last years but only slightly. JBL vs. Finlay Belfast Brawl. This was the opening bout and it had its moments,Finlay getting hit with a trash can can lid in mid air was the highlight of the match. But for a hardcore match it was too short and had JBL winning which really sucked. 5/10 Money in the Bank Ladder match. A great ladder match with an unexpected return of Matt Hardy who delivers a Twist of Fate to MVP of the top of a ladder. 9/10 Ric Flair vs Shawn Michaels This match was actually better than I expected and it was also Ric Flairs last match as HBK defeated Flair and ended his carrer.8/10 BunnyMania match. Nothing special but it does provide some eye candy which all the divas are anyway.5/10 Big Show vs Floyd "money" Marywether.This match was funnier than entertaining and had Marywether beating Big Show with a punch full of brass knuckles. 6/10 John Cena vs HHH vs Randy Orton WWE championship match. This match had promise,it was all going good until it suddenly came to a short end. What I thought would be and epic battle instead ended with Orton retaining the title. I hated that. 4/10 Edge vs Unertaker World Heavywhieght Championship match There's only one thing to say 16-0 10/10

KillerK1991 Most the matches on the card were solid. Most ended up being a lot better than I though they were. There was really only one mediocre match that was thankfully short.The results were as follows: 1. The Undertaker def. World Heavyweight Champion Edge (New Champion)- Great way to end the show. Edge put on one hell of a performance. He dominated the contest. He may have came up short, but he went out a fighting champion, redeeming his other hilariously cheap wins. Undertaker delivered as well, refusing to show any signs of age hindering his step. I can see both main eventing Wrestlemanias for their respective brands for years to come.(5/5)2. Floyd "Money" Mayweather def. Big Show (Knockout)- This surprisingly lived up to the hype(or lack thereof), and delivered one of the most entertaining contests in Wrestlemania history. Big Show has really stepped up his game. Mayweather should stick around a while longer-he makes a great heel.(4.5/5)3. Triple Threat Match: Randy Orton def. John Cena and Triple H (Orton retains WWE Title)- The best result of the night. It's very refreshing to see WWE pull a wild card. Like him or not, Orton needed this win a 100x more than HHH and Cena.(4/5)4. Beth Phoenix & Melina def. Ashley & Maria in the BunnyMania Lumberjack Match- This shocked me the most. The divas actually put on a good match for once. Ashley and Melina remind me of Lita and Trish, and should feud for the title sooner rather than later.(3.5/5)5. Kane def. ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero (New Champion)- About time Kane had his moment in the sun. A very brief moment I might add...(3/5)6. SmackDown vs. Raw: Batista def. Umaga- The worst match of the night, they needed to spice it up quite a bit by making it a cage match or something. I wasn't interested at all.(2/5)7. Shawn Michaels def. Ric Flair (Career Threatening Match)- Unsurprisingly, they put on a clinic. Michaels, seemingly motivated by Flair's "moonsalt" comment the night before managed to deliver quite a few, including a crazy lionsalt from the outside apron through a table. Unfortunately they decided to end it with an incredibly cheesy ending, but at least they gave Flair the dignity of essentially putting himself away.(4/5) 8. CM Punk wins the Money in the Bank Ladder Match- Highlights of this thriller involved Morrison's laddersalt outside the ring, the Sunset Flip-Superplex-Bomb off the ladder delivered by Kennedy and Shelton, and Matt Hardy's somewhat predictable return. Jericho seemed poised to win but got his foot caught in the ladder by Punk in a moment reminiscent of Razor Ramon/HBK's finale years back.(5/5)9. JBL def. Finlay in a Belfast Brawl This match was okay. It was well placed at the beginning of the show and it was over quick, which was probably for the best considering the competitors(Though JBL's entertaining) and little that was at stake.(3/5)In short:Best Match: Edge vs Taker(Classic)Worst Match: Batista vs Umaga(Boring) Best Result: Orton Winning.(Refreshing)Worst Result: Mayweather winning.(Predictable)Overall: 9.5/10
