Hello all. My brother belongs to the writers guild & as a perk he gets advanced screeners of upcoming releases. I was fortunate enough to view "The Wrestler" tonight. I have to say it is absolutely phenomenal. Mickey Rourke was outstanding in the lead. What makes the film so powerful, is the reality of the lives of the workers & why so many of them leave us so young. I dont want to give too much away for those who want to see it but will answer any questions you may have about the film. Plenty of cameos, including Necro Butcher which was just sick. Awesome film.

It will def be one of the better films though I doubt the quality of the filming is that great.

I know someone who had a bit part and she showed me the trailer. I'll have to see if I can get the link and post it here for people who didn't see it. It looks good. I am honestly glad that Mickey Rourke played the lead role and not Nicholas Cage. I don't know why but something about Nick Cage makes me twitch.

I thought that same thing last night. *sigh of relief* |

Does Necro have a pretty big role or does he just make a small cameo? I can't wait to see this movie, myself. From what I've heard, it sounds  ing incredible. |

He has a speaking role with mickey rourke's character in the CZW locker room before their match. As well as the match itself & post match in the locker room. Its absolutely brilliant. Again I don't want to reveal too much for those who want to see it. |
