Wrestling Wrap Up: Bray Wyatt Might Become Sister Abigail
What if there was a .gif where someone never stopped kicking Roman Reigns? The world would be a shinier, more hopeful place, right?
Okay, so Miz's kicks don't look like they hurt and Roman's wearing that hard plastic chest guard. It's not ideal. We take what we can get. Let's forge ahead and not look back.
Thank you to everyone who hit me up on Twitter and FB with kind, supportive, loving words for the Wrap Up's 10th Anniversary. It's been a long twisting, snarky road filled with Daffneys and Phone Dogs and Anus Preparedness Awareness. One that began on October 1st, 2007 when my friend Eric was all like "You still watch wrestling, right?" So I got a gig doing a weekly thing where I tried to make wrestling - its highs and lows (mostly lows) - funny and relatable. I tried to make our fandom funny and relatable. No one else was doing it at the time so I figured "What do I have to lose besides a dignity that was so barely present one could argue that it never existed at all?"

Blade Runner Explained
With early buzz suggesting that Denis Villeneuve’s follow-up to the legendary 1982 sci-fi noir Blade Runner is itself set to become a well-regarded classic of the genre, it’s a good time to remind everyone just why the original carries so much weight in the world of speculative storytelling. The sequel, Blade Runner 2049, builds on an established foundation with the first film, expanding a detailed dystopian world of the future in which humans and Replicants try to make their way through a rain-swept urban environment filled with dangers and delights.
Let’s take a look at where it all began… (Spoilers obviously follow for the original film.)
It starts with Philip K. Dick, a science fiction author whose deeply philosophical ruminations on identity and human nature have made his work a wellspring of inspiration for countless media adaptations and homages. Blade Runner is a loose adaptation of his 1968 novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, with a screenplay by Hampton Fancher (returning for the sequel alongside co-writer Michael Green) and David Peoples. The title of the story has itself passed into our pop culture lexicon; if you ask Siri, she’ll tell you that she does dream of electric sheep, but only sometimes.
