DVD-A-Day 8 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 2 Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Oops, fell asleep watching this one last night :\ Managed to finish it up this morning before work though, close enough! Seems its gotten its hooks into me after all, and I won't just be popping it in occasionally. Probably for the best, really, would hate to ...

DVD-A-Day 7 – George Carlin: Complaints and Greivances Saturday, May 30th, 2009

Never expected to receive this for a Christmas present, but I did, so there you go. I do love Carlin's stuff, and I've only ever listened to bits of this one, so it was quite a nice treat to watch him give the full thing. Recorded less than ...

DVD-A-Day 6 – Karas: The Revelation Friday, May 29th, 2009

Hrm, well, that meandered a bit for the first third or so in presenting us with some back story on our lead. Sure, it helped flesh things out and clarified other parts as well, but in doing so it brought the extra-insane action of the first disc to a ...

DVD-A-Day 5 – Karas: The Prophecy Friday, May 29th, 2009

Heh, figures I'd break the streak in the first week. Ah well, that just gives me opportunity to tackle a 2-parter in one shot, so in goes Karas, a 40th anniversary OVA production by Tatsunoko that popped up a couple years ago whose box art looked somewhat ...

DVD-A-Day 4 – Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 disc 1 Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Who doesn't know the story of Ah! My Goddess? Boy has tough life. Boy accidentally dials Goddess Help Line. Boy turns Goddess into eternal companion. Hijinks ensue. One of the classics. Unlike the OVA (which barrels through the initial portion of the plot) and the movie ...

DVD-A-Day 3 – Princess Minerva Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Let's see... a D&D-style fantasy with a questionable plot, short runtime, loads of violent women wearing a minimum of clothing, the oh-ho-ho-ho laugh, nonstop 'funny' moments (with full gag soundboard), a random musical number, almost zero character development, and the occasional set of tits. Yup, this is a 90s ...

DVD-A-Day 2 – Metalocalypse Season 2 disc 2 Sunday, May 24th, 2009

Wow, okay, consider my complaint about downplaying the story that was building rescinded, the second half of the season absolutely delivers on that front, especially the last installment. The third faction gains power, Nathan starts dating again, life shits all over Toki (though it provides him with ...



DVD-A-Day 1 – Metalocalypse Season 2 disc 1 Sunday, May 24th, 2009

Right, so, Metalocalypse. Season 2 got underway while I wasn't paying attention, so I held off on the DVDs, then they just sat on the shelf. I did catch a few episodes as they aired, but I never got around to watching them (along with a lot ...
