ive decided to become a mark for wwe again
 

To start this off I'm going to loosely quote an article sascha posted about Andy Kaufman from CNN.com

" pro wrestling is both real and not real... and Andy Kaufman rode that line his entire career"

This is what wwe has been basing the past year of storylines around. While I doubt anyone in the booking room brought this up specifically, they have had me buy into and believe in angles more than possibly ever.

When watching japenese or Indy stuff I often times use a different standard.

The wrestling in wwe has gotten better as an added bonus. But from here in out I'm watching wwe as a mark unless something just straight upinsults my intelligence in a noncomedic way.

I think its beautiful to see both layers, but I find specifically when it comes to wwe sustainiing disbelief is the way to go.

Indifferent Clox is an awful person.

I find it a lot more enjoyable if I pretend what I'm seeing is completely real, good luck to you.

I think it's impossible to be a mark again once you 'get it'.

I'm pretty certain Clox has always been a mark.

I always pictured him as a steve

I like this thread. It's nice.

That's what I'm saying.

Do you think actors can't invest in movies once they've.been in them?

Clox, why don't you work on getting a job and forcing your ugly gf to not be morbidly obese

:wtf:

To be fair, I'm not sure Clox ever got anything.

Or:

I'm not sure enjoyment of movies hinges on pretending they're real.

Neither does pro wrestling. But wwe is more entertainment now than pro wrestling.

And no enjoyment of movies isn't hinged on suspension of disbelief, but it certainly helps to vicariously incision yourself as certain charecthers to invest.

Oooh, contradicting yourself in your own thread.
