The Top 40 Basketball Movies - #38 Rebound

Rebound

This is one of the few movies I didn't re-watch. I think I even watched it in the theater. It's probably higher in my mind than it deserves even though I don't remember laughing too much. It came out 18 years ago at this moment which is quite a bit of time. I'm a Martin Lawrence fan. Did watch his show a fair amount. I enjoy Blue Streak and to a lesser extend National Security and Black Knight. I have watched Bad Boys 2, though not the others. Lawrence's character like a few others on this list becomes a fish out of water as a college coach who needs to clean up his temper coaching some kids. The audience more agrees with me than the critics. We aren't debating good movies yet though. Rebound takes it over Ernest because I can stand Lawrence more? And Eddie which I could barely stand.

50 Favorite Adult Swim Characters

I tried to get a good variety and yet be fair to what I like the most. I'm sure there are one I've missed and some that might be surprising but if it aired on Adult Swim - I can use it. I didn't use any characters from either Robot Chicken or Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! as they are basically clip shows and while good, the re-occurring characters aren't used enough. Also, it turns out H. Jon Benjamin is the voice for half these shows. 50. Chains     Fat Guy Stuck in Internet 49. Assy McGee    Assy McGee H. Jon Benjamin plays the mayor. 48. The Mayor    Tom Goes to the Mayor A Picture of Jeff Goldbloom instead of the Mayor, but this was by far the funniest thing on the show. 47. Inuyasha    Inuyasha 46. Satan     Lucy: The Daughter of the Devil Wears Bill Cosby sweaters and is always trying to kill his daughters boyfriend DJ Jesus. Yeah... One of the H. Jon Benjamin voices 45.

My Top 100 One Drop (CC) Creatures (20-1)

Vexing Devil Giving an opponent a choice is never a good idea. However I really feel like it's win win here in the aggressive deck. A 4/3 for one will almost always be worth a card. So the real question is - is it worth a card to deal 4 damage for a red? It's not quite Flame Slash good in a control deck, or as great top deck as Thunderous Wrath but better than Thunderbolt or Lava Axe . 19. Scute Mob Not a true one drop. But by turn six hopefully you are going get a hydra-like insect that will quickly get insanely huge if not dealt with. My biggest issue is that it doesn't have trample. It's still a great costed creature that can do some work if unchecked. There are lots of ways to give it Trample in Green not named Rancor . 18. Dragonmaster Outcast And yet another non-true o
