Deng, have you guys seen the new AG? these girls are HOT, except helga :X not my type... my fav is "crush"
other than that, i think i might train and go on that show LOL i think the prize is 100,000 and a toyota truck.
I was thinking about it too. I am already in good enough shape to do it.
Maybe a little more weight training.
that show was soo funny. i couldnt stop laughing the entire time. did you all see that one guy who was down by something like 30 points and stillsaid 'i can win this, plenty of time left)...to bad he said that with only 2 challenges left. if you like to make fun of people this is your show, not something you can take seriously.
p.s. if anyone one here decides to go on that show, just act like a normal person. everybody on there is wayyy to confident and pen 15y.
if i went on there, I'd let my inner psycho out. i wouldn't be pen 15y or anything. i say they focus too much about just being on tv and the all mighty "hulk." i wouldn't give to skittles that i was on tv or was around "celebrities." I would be staring down the "gladiators" like they aint shiznit and not look like i feel inferior to them, basically show no fear, thats the best way to psych someone out. i laugh too b/c they all (the contestants) look like fools that shouldn't even be on there. i bet there are plenty of military veterans and special op guys that put in applications that would kick every one of those "gladiators" asses all at once but they don't even get a call back.
The Gladiators are smaller than the Gen I gladiators. They must do steroid testing now.
wasone of the guys from the new edition from the old version? i think his name was titan, but not sure tho. he looked like he was an original one.
AND DID ANYONE ELSE THINK THE REFEREE WAS THE SAME REF FROM THE MOVIE DODGEBALL?! he looked just like and sounded just like the movie ref. everytime i heard, 'ready, set...' i always expected him to say 'DODGEBALL!'
i used to watch the old one, my dad watched and loved the old one and loves the new one too it seems. the final obstical course is a bit different than i remember though.
i was thinking the same thing:hick:
Let me guess the truck is a Titan?
Any of the guys have mullets this time? (or any of the women for that matter???)
I watched it last night. It's pretty retarded, I think.
It looks like they told the gladiators to act like a bunch of assholes, plus they gave them retarded names like Militia? I mean come on.
And, they constantly cut the camera all over the place during the challenges (especially assault) and you can't tell what the hell is going on.
On top of all that, everything the contestants said sounded scripted and overly dramatic. That guy that was on last night that they called "big country" sure sounded like a country stereotype, talking wrestling pigs at the county fair. I would be surprised if that was all written for him.
Close...it's a Sequoia!
We watched because there was nothing else on! lol
It's not too bad, I used to watch the first version also. I can't remember anyone who was on there. I do think some of the women Gladiators are a little ridiculous though.... Fury is the worst! LMAO, good thing she's not an (official) actress, she'd never make a dime.
I do like Wolf though, he's got a sense of humor.
yeh wolf is cool but kinda cheesy. i dont know if it was from the one last night or the first one but a contestant was talkin ish to wolf and wolf made him pay for it.
i dont usually like girls with huge muscles, but crush is about right IMO.
It was from the first one. LMAO..... it was on the pyramid, and if I remember right, the guy was really pen 15y in the beginning and told Wolf he would kick his arse, and then he was pen 15y at the pyramid too, so Wolf made him pay.... it was rather funny.
I only have two complaints.
1. Cut to commercial way too many times. In the original, they would play through a whole round, then cut to commercial.
2. The handbike on the final challenge. In the original, if someone fell off the handbike, a ref would be on the mat to enforce a time penalty for falling. As it is now, it is faster to drop off the hand bike and climb the ladder at the other end of the mat.
i noticed that too, it was like after the swimming, the climbing (i think this is the order) they're too tired for the handbike and they fall... one guy made maybe 2 revolutions saw the other guy fall and faked himself falling. not only that but everytime i see them use the handbike its painful. i remember in the original the contestants would fly accross that thing.
as for the commercial thing, its not as bad as hulk (bless him, his life fell completely apart last year) talking to the contestants so deng much. thats my gripe. i hope once the show is in the swing of things that wont happen as much.
I forgot, that's another gripe I had!
They do that stupid final challenge and make them climb over a wall, swim, climb 30 feet, and then expect them to do the handbike thing? Sheesh!
On the old show, the "equalizer" treadmill thing and the handbike were at the beginning of the course, because they were the hardest/most strenuous parts of the course. Now they put one of them in the middle, and one at the very end.
And yeah, there's no penalties if you fall off or screw up anything.
Lame.
I don't think this show will last longer than one season, I don't think it has the appeal the old one did.
i feel that it'll last longer than one season b/c with hulk being involved and the fact that he signed a 20 year contract with wwe during the filming of that hogan knows best show, i bet the wwe has something to do with this show. that being said i think there might be revisions b/c right now it seems like they're using what they have, if i remember correctly the final challenge in the older one was hauled out and set up basically as an entirely different thing.
honestly though, i feel the tredmill thing is retarded with the rope, the older one didnt have the rope. but thats the best part b/c i laugh through that entire part. its like someone just ran the 300m thats a smoker and now he's got to climb that thing and you gotta be quick, those last 2 episodes i saw they could barely do it (i guess thats why it has a rope now?) thats the best part of the show other than "the assault" part, thats always been my fav.
I agree with you on the hand bike John..... of course, I can't say much, I sure as hell couldn't do it at anytime! lol
The commercials are tiring too, and they always show the same ones at least 3 or 4 times during the show....and here, they are all about gambling online. I get so sick of it.
I will purposely fall off the hand bike if I am on the show.
If you go on the show, you better get a plug in for Cat Jam and the boards!! :rollin:
You can be like everyone else and "dedicate" your run for the Cougar group!! :D
"this one goes out to fox tbird cougar forums and all the cougar thunder chicken drivers out there!"
Oh yeah?
Oh Here Comes "Big Carl Cougar" He's Killin That Handbike Look At Him Go!
I'm sure Vincent McMahon does have his fingers in this somehow, it seems like it's right up his alley. From initial impressions, it wouldn't surprise me.
As far as the treadmill goes, it looks to me like they made it steeper and/or faster.
Either that or people are just so tired by the time they get to it that they can't climb it, I dunno.
