Rourke was awesome, can't say that much for the script though.
I did get nostalgic about the old school wrastlin' though. Man those were great Saturdays.
Mean Gean Oakerland, The Hulk, Andre the Giant, Coco Beware, The Iorn Sheik, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Whew!! Loved that stuff as a kid.  ;D

Barbara Walters interviewed him tonight.  I wasn't able to watch it through, but he's been through some tough times, mostly his fault, glad to see he's making a turn around.

At least Penn acknowledged him in the speech.
