The Emmy Campaign Starts Here! ***Regarding the film world, this is a Non-Spoiler Episode*** We WILL discuss & spoil some recent WWE plotlines. Mike 1’s Opening Rant / Who Is Paul Heyman? - 1:56 The Interrogation - 4:33 Heyman as a Legitimate Thespian - 10:30 See, Buy, Skip - 21:45 Closing Argument - 23:21 The WWE develops popular actors, and they’ve done so throughout recent film & television history. From Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan to The Rock and John Cena, Hollywood has been scouting Vince McMahon’s sports entertainment company for their next action hero since the 80s. But what if World Wrestling’s next big cross-over to Hollywood star wasn’t even a wrestler?? From thewrap, slashfilm, & msn articles to all corners of #filmtwitter, many have praised the Emmy worthy performance of one of wrestling’s unlikeliest stars, Paul Heyman. Think boxing’s Don King or UFC’s Dana White, just give them a duster & turned up to 11. Paul Heyman is a promoter / advocate. He reps his wrestlers like lawyers, but follows them around like a sidekick. What he really does is cover for some of the worst actors in the wrestling ranks. The George to their Lenny, the Frankenstein to their Monster, when a fan favorite in-the-ring star needs a mouthpiece, that’s when Paul Heyman’s been at his best. He’s old, he’s bald, he’s fat, and he’s one of our favorite ACTORS to perform in the wrestling world in a long long while. We certainly have a lot of fun breaking down Heyman’s recent performances leading into this past Summer Slam. A fan of wrestling, Mike 1 has quite a list of superlatives to throw out there, and Also Mike (who hasn’t watched a wrestling match in over 20 years) can’t even produce a single hardball question. Bottom Line: we’re both impressed with Heyman as a character, a theatrical performer who can sure rile up a crowd, but also as an actor who understands how to get his message across on camera. Check out our other DatA’s (Devil and the Advocate) episodes. We’ve reviewed Solo: A Star Wars Story, and the latest Halloween and Mandy trailers. Of course, DatA’s are only a small portion of what we do here, and we have episodes of all shapes and sizes in our catalog. There’s 16 halfisodes including 10 shows on Best Original Song categories of Oscars past and the 5 Mission Impossible films leading into our full OSP of MI6: Fallout. Then we broke some Academy News with a Best Popular Film reaction pod in halfisode 16 before we compiled all our research and brain power in ep 92 to propose our fixes for the Oscars. We followed this news roll with a recap of the Moviepass Saga, and we’ve also reviewed 12 2018 oscar contenders thus far. From full episode reviews of all the contenders, trailer breakdown shows, monthly previews, recurring news commentaries, prediction pods, and good ole’ retrospectives - we make awards season go year round.
