3 Month Roundup: Watching Saturday, December 26th, 2009

While gaming and comics dominated the last three months for me, I've still managed to watch a fair bit. Anime: A slower season for me, again because it was dominated by gaming: - Basquash and NEEDLESS came to their own respectively crazy conclusions, though I wish they'd each gotten ...



An olden tale of woe. Saturday, August 15th, 2009

A thread on a certain forum disappeared before I could finish getting this typed up, and realized that the story does not live on in old bloggings, so I figure it would be a waste not to share this 10 year old story- The year is 1999, the month, May. ...

DVD-A-Day 18 – Comic Party 1 disc 1 Monday, June 15th, 2009

Wow, what a difference a switch in mediums can make, and not for the better- at least so far. While the important personality bits are there(with some tweaking), the characters, and more specifically the girls, all seem to have gotten a few years younger, and someone also decided that ...

Birdy The Mighty: DECODE S2 Episode 7 fixed! Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Oh thank goodness, they're fixing Episode 7 for the DVD:

DVD version on the left, broadcast on the right
DVD version on the left, broadcast on the right, (full set of comparisons here) This was, quite frankly, the most absurd drop in animation quality I've ever seen, and no ...

DVD-A-Day 17 – Bakuretsu Tenshi Infinity OVA Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Okay, that wasn't what I was expecting it to be. For some reason I thought this was a somewhat longer piece proffered as an alternate ending to the series, rather than the mid-series side story episode that it actually looks to be. Which thoroughly confused me, as its been so ...

DVD-A-Day 16 – The Work of Michael Gondry Monday, June 8th, 2009

One of the collections in the Director's Label series of DVDs, this collects 27 music videos, miscellaneous stories, and a 75 minute film, though for the purposes of this, and my particular interests, I'm only looks at the music videos (someday I'll get back to the rest of the ...



DVD-A-Day 15 – Battle Warrior Sunday, June 7th, 2009

Behold the power of Tony Jaa's name, it can make me buy a completely terrible movie. Playing the villain's lead hench, even his pair of fight scenes couldn't save this movie. Very much the definition of a B-movie, but unfortunately one that doesn't quite swing back from ...



DVD-A-Day 14 – X-Men TV Volume 1 disc 2 Saturday, June 6th, 2009

The trouble with reviewing a collection like this is that often the second disc doesn't bring much new to the table to talk about. Still, there were some surprises, I don't ever remember Jean and Scott almost getting married, or how fucking creepy ...

DVD-A-Day 13 – X-Men TV Volume 1 disc 1 Friday, June 5th, 2009

Another skip day yesterday to consume this 2-disc collection of the old 90s X-Me cartoon. This was probably my first introduction to the X-Men way back when, but as with much of the cooler 90s cartoons, I was never able to watch much of it. Its ...
