Geek Fights

In 1994 , the Caine-Hackman theory was first postulated at Port Charles University. The Theory states that at any given time, either a Gene Hackman or Michael Caine movie is playing on television. Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Chris Mitchell, BJ Anderson and Barry Ingram neither prove nor disprove this hypothesis, but they do pit the two titans of cinema against each other in GENE HACKMAN VS MICHAEL CAINE. It's brilliants roles, questionable career choices, oscar, killer fish and the two hardest working actors in show biz. Brackets: PDF and Excel format.

Chris keeps on reading, and this time it's more Superman! Our favorite Englishman lends his ephemeral eloquence one again to the Last Son ok Krypton. This time out it's 2 very different pieces. First up he tackles the effusive words of Quentin Tarantino with Bill's monologue about Superman from Kill Bill Volume 2. Then he goes totally old school (and kind of American) with The opening from the Adventures of Superman TV show (and radio show for the most part. The radio show didn't have "and the American way line" but Chris does (sort of) and he's not even American!)
