  1. DBZ is fun to go back to, at least the Raditz, Saiyan, and Frieza sagas. The Cell and Buu sagas, on the other hand, tried too hard and were a complete bore.

      I haven't watched a lot of Dragon Ball, but from what I remember, after the Freiza saga, they basically became gods and the show became boring, since they would always win due to their power (and if they died they could always just find the Dragon Balls and wish the character back).

      Yeah, Akira Toriyama wanted the Frieza saga to be the end of the series.

  2. I might have to try this.

  3. For those looking for something to port to the 5200 and 7800.

  4. There's always something about a cat running around a baseball field during a game.
  5. This was long overdue.
  6. Was I the only person who saw The Munsters Today during its original run?

      Syndicated on? Maybe I should just say which network?

    3. SlidellMan

      SlidellMan

      Various networks. I think WGNO in New Orleans/Slidell aired it.

      Got ya! I think that would be that middle ground between cable and network, We had one (Denver) called KWGN that we could get (though a bit staticy) with an antenna, but I don't think they carried this show...

  7. This is fucking hilarious!

      Not bad, how about the Nostalgia Critic talking about GI JOE the Movie...

      I've already seen that on Vid.me.

  8. "I'll re-iterate for those with cognitive dissonance: Skyrim is not--I repeat, fucking not--a bad game, yet. Elder Scrolls is a difficult formula to fuck up within the confines of just one game, but give it one or two games down the road if the series holds to its present streamlined course; it'll suck ass through a fuckin' garden hose, and you can fuckin' quote me on that."

    For someone who wanted Morrowind almost twenty years ago, I don't have high hopes for the future of Elder Scrolls. That is, unless, id Software was in charge of actual development.

    Others have said that it's Du wirst sterben, but I am not sure.

      Makes sure that the can of spinach isn't expire or you'll expel gas that smell like low tide.

    Here's another WIP, just adjusted the filter on the Wobble Bass, swapped out the 'Almost 303' for a different 'Acid Lead' in Synth1, added a Bell Synth for a harmonized lead, and a sub bass done in Surge.

  14. RIP Bob Saget from Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos.

  15. RIP Nintendo Hardware designer Masayuki Uemura. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cgp2M51Mt8A

    As someone who still has his NES and Super NES, this was sudden.

  16. I know that this is going to bend a lot of people out of shape, but here are my celebrity death predictions for 2021:

    -Bill Cosby

    -Alan Oppenheimer

    -Dr. Thomas Sowell

    -Arlo Guthrie

      You taking bets?  What do we win?

    2. SlidellMan

      SlidellMan

      I'm not taking bets, and don't have any prizes. However, I was considering the inclusion of Ralph Bakshi on this list, but his death would be too on the nose. And I don't like going after easy targets.

  17. A couple of underappreciated manga-ka: Kaori Yuki, Kentaro Miura, Kazue Koike (RIP), Tetsuo Hara, and Ryuuskue Mita.

    1. dj_convoy

      dj_convoy

      You feel like Mirua is underappreciated? They've made Berserk into an anime like two and a half times! It seems like he's pretty free to do his own thing. Koike is responsible for one of the most widely reprinted manga of all time.

       

      Oh, unless you mean underappreciated here.

    2. SlidellMan

      SlidellMan

      I was talking about here, and Koike's other manga just doesn't seem to get discussed outside of Mad Bull 34.

      Here's a Goa Track that I also made: https://shanefromslidell.bandcamp.com/track/dark-mandala

      I'd like to hear your honest thoughts on these two.

      I like the keyboard sounds on the top song.

  18. A little something from Jessica Calvello: 

    Easily the best video of the year.

     

  19. A new SNL skit that is actually funny for once:

      My wife of all people showed me this.  Hilarious and very well done.

      Come on, SNL had one other funny skit in the last 20 years:

      SNL is still on tv?

  20. A Puppet Master Halloween:

    Speaking of Full Moon's series, I wonder what would happen if Andre Toulon's puppets met the Rozen Maidens?

  21. ALS is bad when you get it, but it is even worse when one of your friends, family, or pets get it.

      It is no laughing matter, but I think my pet getting ALS is definitely better than any of those other scenarios . . .

  22. Am I the only person here who considers 4Kids' One Piece rap to be a guilty pleasure. Fun fact: Eric Stuart told 4Kids' leaders that the series was too violent. Did I mention that he, along with Lisa Ortiz, Veronica Taylor, Tara Jayne Sands, Ted Lewis, Stan Hart, Jimmy Zoppi, and other 4Kids Pokemon voice actors worked for Central Park Media?

      I liked it back in the day, still do :)

  23. Am I the only person here who thinks that Lorenzo Music would never be allowed to work in mainstream film and television if he were still alive today? (Ditto for Mel Blanc, Jack Mercer, and Paul Frees.)

      I don't know, but you inspired my to read a bit on them. Amazingly talented folk; Music helped create The Bob Newhart Show; Mercer was an animator & writer; Frees wrote songs & scripts, & did ADR work for other actors. It's hard to believe people with so many diverse talents wouldn't find some sort of work.

      Mercer was also a voice actor on Popeye and Joe Oriolo's Felix the Cat cartoons. Come to think of it, Bill Scott of Rocky & Bullwinkle fame would have been 100 this year. (Scott, like Mercer, was a writer and voice actor.) Trivia: I was born the same year that Bill Scott, Joe Oriolo, C Lafayette Hartman, and Clarence Nash died.

  24. Am I the only person here who would pay to see a Batman film with Black Mask as the main antagonist?

      No you are not alone. I would welcome the Black Mask as the main villain.
