It’s Showtime in Vermont. And perhaps early Halloween?! I’ll take it!

Beetlejuice 2 is well underway filming in East Corinth, Vermont, and in Hertfordshire, England for the upcoming highly anticipated sequel to the 1988 Tim Burton film our generation worships like its own God. Rumors have been swirling for years about this movie, most of it thanks to photoshopped pictures and the internet doing its thing, until this year when we finally got something solid on the project as it was finally green lit to start production. Even when the story went from wild rumor to facts, people still didn’t believe bloggers like myself and others because of the shenanigans of clickbait websites. But now, thanks to people like Luna Moon Gothic, behind-the-scenes photos of production began popping up online begging the naysayers to trust with their own eyes and give the world a glimpse into the magical world of Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice visionary!

The photos give away that Beetlejuice 2 will, indeed, be set around Halloween as we can see decorations in store windows and jack-o-lanterns sitting in front of the Deetz’ home.

As it should be.

Luna Moon Gothic is an avid fan and Etsy shop owner, one of which ME personally, am a fan of as I own a few of her jewelry pieces-one of which is Louise’s TEEN WITCH necklace- which you can totally buy here buy the way. The girl has been killin’ it staying on top of the behind-the-scenes stuff so make sure you give her a follow!

On top of this glorious code orange/ Tim Burton news, Winona Ryder who will be returning as Lydia Deetz and Jenna Ortega, who will be playing her daughter in the film were spotted filming a WEDDING scene in England just earlier this week. With Jenna sporting a white bridal gown with a red hinge, there’s definitely a throwback to the first film going on here if anything. Monica Bellucci is being billed as Betelgeuse’s wife, so unless BJ is into polygamy, which hey, I guess isn’t out of the realm of possibility, these photos will only leave us speculating as to who the groom is.

I mean, it’s probably more of an homage, but either way, it definitely popped in my head.

Directed by Tim Burton, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Jenna Ortega star in Beetlejuice 2. Catherine O’Hara will also return as Delia Deetz, with the sequel adding the likes of Justin Theroux, Willem Dafoe, and Monica Bellucci and is set to open in theaters September 6, 2024, by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Good God Almighty! Mankind and Undertaker Rewatch Their Iconic Hell In a Cell Match 25 Years Later

Image 1 Comment

The moment you mention both The Undertaker and Mankind simultaneously, without even finishing the sentence, minds have already traveled back to June 28, 1998. 

On this infamous day in wrestling history, most of us were plopped right in front of our television sets, awaiting the event of the goddamn Summer-The King of the Ring. Maybe not necessarily the actual slew of matches themselves, at least not for me anyway, but ONE match in particular; and that was the long-standing feud of The Undertaker and Mankind (Mick Foley) in what was dubbed, the Hell in a Cell Match.

It was a night that anyone and their mama that was watching would NEVER forget, and would immediately set the standard for future Hell in a Cell matches until basically the end of time.

After an almost two-year rivalry, the score was to finally be settled in the way of a 16-foot-high steel cage with a roof attached. Right from the word go, there was drama in this Hell in a Cell match as Mankind entered first and immediately grabbed a steel chair as he made his way up towards the top of the cage and onto the roof, awaiting the Undertaker as he would arrive second. Unbeknownst to the audience, Mark Calaway (Undertaker) went into the match with a fractured ankle and considering what was about to transpire, these two men would go down in history as the biggest pair of beasts with gargantuan balls that ever set foot in a WWE ring.

GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! HE KILLED HIM!

The match had barely gotten underway and Undertaker just YEETS Mankind off the top of the steel cage like a rag doll right into an announcer’s table freaking out Jim Ross and pretty much anyone watching as Ross let off a slew of now very quotable sentences expressing his shock and awe. The rest of just screamed a shitload of profanities as we really thought this guy wasn’t getting back up, and we just witnessed a horrible accident.

“When I tossed him off of the cage, it was like time stopped. People say they have out-of-body experiences and things like that. Standing on the cage and watching him fly, I could actually see him and myself standing up there. I didn’t think Mick Foley would get up from that.” -Mark Calaway

Medical personnel came out to check on Foley, as did Funk and various others including McMahon who broke kayfabe by looking legitimately worried about someone his Mr. McMahon character was supposed to dislike. Mankind was placed on a stretcher and began to be wheeled out of the arena however, Mankind got his crazy ass up from the stretcher and fought off the officials, so he climb again onto the top of the cell to resume the match.

And that’s when all Hell broke loose, and we all collectively lost our ever-loving minds. Then, this crazy SOB takes a Chokeslam through the top of the cell. It’s a miracle that Mankind managed to finish off this brutal encounter after taking two dangerous falls. Undertaker prevailed with the Tombstone Piledriver, but this Hell in a Cell match has not been topped in terms of brutality or has ever been erased from the minds of wrestling fans over the past 25 years.

And apparently, neither has Mark Calaway nor Mick Foley. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of, undoubtedly, the greatest Hell in a Cell Match of all time, the pair of legends recently took to YouTube on the WWE channel and rewatch their infamous match while giving their commentary. A true gift for both the Attitude Era and the average wrestling fans alike.

Enjoy and remember kids, whenever you find yourself around some asswad telling you wrestling is fake, be sure to point them to this match!

[VIDEO] Let’s Visit McDonald’s In 1990!

Image Leave a comment

The year is 1990 on a mild Summer afternoon, and you just left your favorite Mom and Pop Video Store with a bag of Reese’s Pieces and a copy of Friday the 13th: Jason Takes Manhattan under your arm for a first-time watch. Depending on who you talk to, that could be either the greatest or worst viewing experience of your life– but either way, a good time, eh?! We got the munchies. We need some substance for the adrenaline that comes with a new slasher flick, so where do we go? McDonald’s of course! Where the styrofoam containers flow like a non-eco-friendly river made up of “fancy ketchup” packets and customer service is still kind of a thing. A time when if you weren’t feeling a Quarter Pounder, you had the option of a McPizza. Or perhaps a fried apple pie with a side of boxed chocolate chip cookies. You may or may not be interrupting some kid’s birthday party, and for the underlying cynic in all of us, that was a tad amusing. Five bucks bought you a Big Mac Extra Value Meal or, for the kids( or big kids), a $3 Happy Meal and your day was complete.

McDonald’s was a special treat for most of us who lived through the 80s and 90s. Whether you were a kid or adult, it was goddamn magical and a memory that serves up all the fuzzies along with a side of beef tallow fries. However, thanks to the internet and YouTubers like Vampire Robot, we can relive those times with home video footage of what McDonald’s used to be and what we remember as kids in the early 90s!

The first video is nostalgia overload with core memories unlocked as we peer into a McD’s restaurant in 1990 as a family orders a meal, and we get those lovely closeups of a Filet of Fish clamshell container and a Fry Friends Happy Meal! In the second video, we’re bombarded with styrofoam overload that takes us back to a time when the McNuggets got the same packaging treatment as a Quarter Pounder.

Some things should never be taken for granted, and visors’ off to both Vampire Robot’s channel and the person who recorded and preserved this footage. The world needs more heroes like you.
