Movie and TV lack of catfight dissapointments

[Soulsville]

Johnny Guitar :-  If ever a film deserved a stand up bare knuckle fist fight to end the film then this was it ! Who needs guns when you're got two female stars that didn't really like each other anyway & would have probably agreed not to stick to the script !!

I have stated previously, and will say it again: IMO this movie wins the award for the All Time Blown Opportunity at an epic catfight.  Instead we wind up with a lame-ass shoot out at the end.  Simply unforgivable.

Here's another one from years gone by:  Moolah vs. Rita Cortez.  Real life feud over the fact that Ms. Cortez stole Moolah's husband from under her nose.  Moolah (Vivian Ellison) held a grudge until her passing.

In "That's 70s show" the character of Mila Kunis and Laura Prepon kept teasing each other.  I have long hoped for a fight between the two of them

For me
(1) Real Chance of Love 1 & 2 - Both seasons they had the contestants do a series of wrestling matches, however, the matches had showed the girls doing like 4 things mostly in season 1 and a little more in season 2, but it was mostly seeing Real & Chance jump around watching like kids in a candy store free shopping spree or see them commentating on the action we were not seeing - In season 1, they had this I believe Hawaiian babe doing a little interview thing on her match where she was saying "I'm one of the good girls ------ The Good Girls wind up losing --- so most of my training is me getting beat up" would of loved to see the pin straight out instead of seeing the last count at a bad angle
(2) Forbes Riley (Splitz) Showed a beautiful blonde teamed with a hefty girl, a somewhat female animal house sorority going up against two sexy Latina girls in red lingerie - best put, the Animal House like team won when one of the Latina babes had her bra snag to the ropes and stretch and stretch until it released and snapped back, making the hot Latina fall forward onto her front where Chubby jumped onto her back and just like that, a blonde floosy of a ref  announced "Game Over" Game Over, it is wrestling, it is a match ,, not a game,
(3) Boom Boom Girls of Wrestling - 1st of all, this movie was supposed to be out like 5 to 7 years ago and cannot be seen yet and everything I see, a group of girls are on the way to Vegas to do a pro wrestling show when their shuttle van breaks down and they have to deal with some sort of killer in a chicken suit which makes me believe from what I saw through a clip of the movie, all the wrestling is sone in the beginning and I don't think that once that they take care of Chicken Killer Guy, they have their show in Vegas, can't help but feel that surviving the Killer Chicken will be the end of the movie
(4) Mugsy's Girls - The girls of the Delta Pi Sorority go to Vegas for a mud wrestling contest for 6 different matches, whoever gets the most points via pins wins, The Sorority Girls known as Mugsy's Girls, win 3 of the 1st 5 matches with regular shoulders down 1-2-3 pin counts on their opponents, The Nevada Nasties, who are all supposed to be big, strong, mean, and the best mud wrestlers out there setting up a winner take all 6th match with the score tied although each pin is worth points, each match ends with the 1st pin, so the scoring is not only "WTF" but the 6th match sees Mugsy wrestle, who was probable in her late 70's to early 80's at that time (Ruth Gordon) and the two matches lose by Mugsy's Girls, they are face down in the mud with their opponents kneeling next to them and not even touching them, getting two phantom pins, not the same normal pins Mugsy's Girls got to win their matches
(5) Panicats - A I think Colombian reality like show where the female model competitors (Panicats)  that is entitled Luta Livre, sees 4 sexy babes in a wrestling ring, 2 babes are wearing stars and stripes like outfits and looking insanely hot in them while 2 others are dressed in heroine like outfits, 1 as Wonder Woman and the other as Harley Quinn and 4 trained pro wrestlers come out, 2 men and 2 women who proceed to have 2 mixed matches, each ending when the female kicks the guy in the family jewels and then after that, they literally go and teach the girls some pro wrestling moves and so when you are thinking, hum , the 2 heroines vs the trained male & female and the stars and stripes beauties vs the other man & woman or the heroines vs either just the trained men or women with the stars a stripes babes vs either both men or women, out comes a mystery woman in a robe who then challenges 1 of the Panicats to a kick boxing type battle with headgear --- HUH WTF , why teach them how to wrestle if you are not going to have them do a match, it is like teaching them ow to shoot various guns at a shooting range and then saying "Archery Contest" without ever teaching them Archery   

I know this is wrestling we are talking about, but this seems to be the good place to air this gripe, sure there are plenty more, but these are 5 that are right there in my head

In one episode there was a fight between the two of them. Or a fight between two of the girls on that show. I believe between Laurie  the younger blonde sister and someone else. I have forgotten her name now. They did not show the actual fight. Just the blonde running off covering her top. Apparently she had her top ripped off. Another missed opportunity there to show a fight. As well as other scenes of showing the women mudwrestling, which never happened. Missed opportunities on all of these scenes.

It was between Laurie and Mila Kunis' character. The fight sounded great, but since it was hidden behind a couch, we will never know how good it could have been. I always found Laurie to be hot, in a wild Kelly Bundy kind of way, and her get beat up and have her top ripped off would have been super sexy to see.

It is true it was between Laurie and the character of Mila Kunis. Unfortunately not much of that scene was seen. I remember Mila Kunis winning and Laurie running defeated

What about ... Heather Locklear vs Heather Thomas
Pamela Anderson vs Jeanny McCarthy ...

Regarding my post concerning "Johnny Guitar" if it was the subject of a remake or indeed a re-imagining with an ending more suited to our particular requirements who would you cast in the Joan Crawford / Mercedes McCambridge roles ?
Taking into account they weren't young up & coming actresses when they made the film. I think we'll see some interesting casting amongst our devotees.
By the way if there's any Hollywood producers reading this who have a penchant for mature fighting females, here's an idea %uD83D%uDC4D

Thanks for starting this thread.  It seems like everyday I recall another disappointment.  It gives me the opportunity to reminisce, vent and to laugh at myself for all of the hours that I invested in futile attempts to watch a catfight or wrestling match back before the Internet. 

Another movie came to mind.  It was called Secret Society and it was released around 2002.  It's about a group of plus-sized women factory workers who organize a sumo wrestling club.  When I first read about the premise I thought that someone must have been reading my mind, or maybe my posts on Barb's site, and found that my fantasies were movie-worthy.  This was going to be the "all to end all."  Oh well. 

After 90 minutes of following dialogues that were sometimes witty, sometimes humorous and sometimes boring, the final climactic wrestling scene involves the women's club wrestling against a group of Japanese ----------------MEN.  I hate mixed wrestling.  Can't stand it.  I had to laugh for allowing myself to be drawn in, yet again. 

The general theme of the movie was about women's empowerment, with a particular strength being realized by shy, heavy women.  I got the message, I just didn't get to see what I was hoping for.

Kate Beckinsale and an actress (any suggestions?) who's convincing as a bad girl. Someone who'd dominate Kate if things got out of control/'off-script'. Ideally in a hairpulling rolling catfight.

Some more "mom" battles to consider:

   #81:   Joanna Kerns (Growing Pains) vs Meredith Baxter (Family Ties).   Conservative mom vs Progressive Mom...who wins?

   #82    Meredith Baxter (Family Ties) vs Patricia Richardson (Home Improvement)

   #83   Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond) vs Nancy Travis (Last Man Standing).  To determine who the last mom standing really is.

Season 1 of Westworld (HBO) always seemed like it was ripe for possibilities, given that the whole point of the park is to let rich people indulge in their fantasies. The show is too serious to actually do that sort of thing, but it's fun to think about.

[Family Ties:

I remember a scene on Family Ties where MBB was laying on her bed and the soles of her nylon covered feet are facing the camera. I was so turned on during that scene, as someone with a foot and nylon fetish. I thought I was the only one who had a "thought" about her!
