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 ...

A quick note Friday, June 12th, 2009

Obbiously its a couple days without posting here now. Covering for one of the overnight guys this weekend, so I've been busy getting my system all switched into reverse. While this leaves me conscious just as long, I need to be doing something a bit more interactive to ...

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 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 ...

DVD-A-Day 12 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 6 Thursday, June 4th, 2009

And there's the season done. A bit surprised that it only took the first two episodes on the disc to finish up the sudden plot, but I guess I should have seen that the actual series was only 24 episodes and the last two were DVD-only specials. Perfectly ...

DVD-A-Day 11 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 5 Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

Augh! Super goofy relationship-advancing horny-potioned Belldandy episode, goofy-but-sweet relationship-advancing gender-switched Keiichi episode, melancholy Urd super-character-development episode, OMG-RETARDEDLY-PLOY-HEAVY-EPISODE. While Marller's been there on and off this season, and has really brought the only bit resembling an ongoing plot to the mix, there ...

DVD-A-Day 10 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 4 Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

Hrm, there's the robot, Banpei, guess I did catch up to where I'd read with the last disc. We have a rather meandering set of episodes here, mostly wandering around, but providing some secondary character development and, notably in the last episode on the disc, moving ...

DVD-A-Day 9 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 3 Monday, June 1st, 2009

And yet more A!MG this afternoon as I transition over to shorter 4-episode discs, which means easier to squeeze in, which means easier to keep up with this, woo. Serving mainly to bring our two other primary characters, the demon Mara/Marller and Belldandy's little ...
