Speaking of 1996 WWF, here's a quote from the era I posted on another site recently that still gets a smirk out of me:
Roddy Piper: *gets out papers*
Vince McMahon: What is this?
Piper: It's rules, dammit! Rules!
Vince: Rules? You've never lived by rules in your life!
Piper: You know what? That's a heck of a point. Let me just put these away.

🗣️ “What do you want me to do to make this successful?”
A legend in the ring — and a class act behind the scenes.

“The Transformers: The Movie” is fun to wake up to at #bfest. Adult rewatch number three really allowed me to appreciate how much of an #anime. Still think the ball was dropped not casting #roddypiper as Hot Rod.
**They Live (1988): The Story Behind the Cult Classic**
John Carpenter’s *They Live* (1988) is a sci-fi thriller that has grown into a cult classic. Based on Ray Nelson’s 1963 short story *Eight O’Clock in the Morning*, the film follows a drifter who discovers that the ruling elite are actually aliens manipulating humanity through subliminal messages.
Carpenter infused the film with strong anti-consumerist and anti-authoritarian themes, reflecting concerns about media control and corporate influence. Starring professional wrestler Roddy Piper, *They Live* became famous for its striking visuals, memorable one-liners, and the now-iconic “OBEY” propaganda aesthetic.
Despite mixed initial reviews, the film gained recognition over the years, influencing pop culture, conspiracy theories, and even political discourse.
🎥 **Director:** John Carpenter
📖 **Based on:** *Eight O’Clock in the Morning* by Ray Nelson
⭐ **Starring:** Roddy Piper, Keith David, Meg Foster
📍 **Filming location:** Los Angeles, USA
