Too lazy to quote from the old thread, but wasn't there basically an oil dome scene in Enders Game? The book, at least, I never watched the movie.

I think you're thinking of the shower scene where one 8 year old brutally kills another.

That book sucks.

I think I'm way more for cageside weigh ins than I am for same-day (as in, 9 am local time the way current ones are), that's probably what would actually get people to not gently caress around. But if it won't, it won't be pretty.

And the best way to make sure people don't gently caress around is a sports commission that feels willing to pull people who look in any way messed up or not able to fight. But there is too much money involved in everything to trust they will do that. Even if they think they're being kind to protect a fighters pay day or something.
