john Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 is anyone else watching this. it is some of the most ridiculous displays of athleticism by people ive seen in a while. not saying i could do a whole lot better, but if i was going on national television i hope i would do a hell of a lot better than this chad guy.
Mike Honcho Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 I did notice the referee was the same dude from Dodgeball.
osulax05 Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 piss poor if you ask me... they could have done a lot better with this
spectre56 Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 piss poor if you ask me... they could have done a lot better with this I agree. "Wolf" was amusing to watch only because he howled every time they said his name . I almost fell asleep watching the first two women attempt the eliminator, weak. The second set of women (the former Marine and the body builder) were pretty impressive, though. Maybe Hulk Hogan could say "brother" a few more times.
Coasta Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 Stealth (the black chick gladiatior) is an Academy grad FWIW.
HerkDerka Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) piss poor if you ask me... they could have done a lot better with this I agree. It seemed like in every event they switched between camera shots so much that you could barely tell WTF was going on. Not to mention Wolf set a new record by overdoing his "catchphrase" in the first friggin' episode. The casting for the women gladiators definitely changed though.

Rocker Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 I haven't seen it yet, but somebody at work today said the ex-Marine dude, can't remember his name, but between the Marines and American Gladiator, he was a gay porn star. If that's true, that is hilarious.

If that's true, that is hilarious. I think you're talking about "Militia". I didn't catch that he was a Marine, but it makes sense since every time they showed him he was saluting. Ugh.
afthunderchief16 Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 Does anyone else find it kind of funny that Lalia Ali is bigger than most of the competitors?
HerkDerka Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 Is anyone else noticing the weak, family-oriented, scripted trash talk that the contenders parrot after each event? Hulk: Rich, you just took a beating like a bean bag chair! What's you strategy for the next event? Contender: "I've got the heart and the power. It doesn't matter that I'm 82 points behind, I'm ready to kick some major Gladiator tail" Hulk: Well you'd better give it everything you got because you'll be facing Wolf. Wolf: I smell fear, I'm hungry, and I'm going to eat you. ARRRROOOOOO. Ugh. HD

Slander Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) I don't think the writing in the original was much better than its current incarnation, although the gladiators have improved from this tool. https://youtube.com/watch?v=VGDwScgb_Y0 Edited for double post.

sky_king Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 My favorite gladiator is Hellga. The pigtails are a nice touch.
Guest ASUcadet Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Maybe if they make all of the contenders female and replace the eliminator with Jello wrestling I'll start watching it on a regular basis.
Guest HercengTN Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I think the only way to make this show entertaining is to take a shot of every time Hulk says brother and Wolf howls.

contraildash Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Oh comon....Malibu was awesome! haha I just couldn't get over the one girl that just gave up and hung on to the ramp and let the 'lil Asian doctor pass her up....good lord it was sad.
Guest HercengTN Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 (edited) Get your and shot glass out, it has made it to week two...Brother! Edited January 14, 2008 by HercengTN
