Good one.

I saw a bunch of these on the Sear Sound FB page the other day, Walter Sear with various famous musicians.

who would win in a fight? 1979 muhammad ali, or the rocky of Rocky II?

one thing i've noticed about Rocky - and i think i'm the first to ever make this observation - but he doesn't seem to be very good at blocking. in fact, it seems like the people who he fights manage to land clean, vicious hooks and uppercuts directly to his face and head dozens of times per fight.

leading with one's face until the other guy falls over is a key skill Rocky learned from Ali vs Foreman

Wow, good one

Get your boxing history straight. Ali never 'led with his face' against Foreman. It's true Ali didn't throw many punches for the first six rounds, but he protected himself very determinedly, both head and body. By not dancing, backpedaling or jabbing much, he did allow Foreman to get in close and pummel him, but he blocked as many of those blows as possible.

wow

Sometimes other people are not 100% earnest and serious in all of their posts. Sometimes they make offhand and silly points while posting quickly to massage boards.
Thank you for the history lesson on a fight I've watched more times than I care to count.

surely you meant “*posing* quickly *on* massage boards”?

^solid, archetypal post worthy of this great thread

I know he's super prominent already but this particular Alice Cooper connection has never come up on this thread prior to now and it was news to me!

While on the set of The Devil's Rain, Prather told an "extremely unhappy" John Travolta that Scientology had helped her, inspiring him to get involved with the religion upon his later return to Los Angeles.

ammmaaaaaazing, so you're saying Ernest Borgnine and Anton Lavey are tangentially responsible for Tom Cruise

And Shatner, let's not leave him out. (Also the overt link to Halloween as it was the head cast for this film that made the mask for Michael Myers.)

I respect how high betts wore his guitar. It shows a prioritization of execution over flash

I think so. In any event, I've seen this pic before and had no impulse to share it here, which I took to be I'd seen it here. DLR shows up in a lot of these pics.

my uncle was high school friends with Reubens and liked to talk about the time they went to Disneyland with Elvira.

hate to come over all Tuomas here but who are those people with Pee Wee Herman?

Rodney Dangerfield and Dave Lee Roth, I think.
