GOTY just dropped

The insane frankensteining of Toei's toku catalog in the 90's with all of Saban's shenanigans means that on the plus side, Bandai America made toys of ALL of it back then

Meaning there is a plethora of extremely cheap figuarts accessories you can get at Flea Markets for like, $5

Tenshin Da!

Whoa whoa whoa whoa!

New "Magic Knight Rayearth" anime series is coming in 2026 (based on the manga by CLAMP).

There's a Simpsons clip for EVERYTHING

Halloween (2018)

I started calling it "Halloween: The Force Awakens" halfway in

Nostalgia checklists, very familiar beats, contrived plot points, half-finished character arcs

People complain Zombie's Michael is too overpowered, but this 61 YO Michael is cartoonishly strong

Its "fine". Not a fan

"You wanna get nuts!?"

The Power Rangers Brainwashing is strong

Because SOMEHOW... the picture on the left looks more correct than the picture on the right, even though the suit was LITERALLY designed to go along with those suits.

I've always loved the Dairanger opening so much.

I'm tired.

I'm tired of the pain, and I'm tired of suffering.

I know it's getting better, but why does the pain still have to hurt so much?

Today is the 25th anniversary of the release of Digimon: The Movie and y'all, when they talk about films that "couldn't be made today," THIS is it. A weird, funny and fascinating time capsule.

Don't worry, Unc still hanging around the office

Lightning Collection: Big Head Mode

Every week at work I've been updating my zoom profile to a different red sentai ranger

Well, I've been doing that for 16 weeks, so its Zyuranger time.

Figure I'll bring in the big guns

Fred Flentstone stands, hands on his hips, looking incredulously at Barney Rubble, who is at the corner of the panel barely visible. He appears to wearing tiny sunglasses. "C'mon Barn, what's with the getup? and what is that on your head?" Fred asks. "oh this, Fred?" We now see Barney is also wearing a black trench coat and smoking a cigarette. A small bird is taped to the side of his head. "Just the latest in cybernetic enhancement technology- wired right into my brain." The background dissolves and Barney stands next to a free floating diagram of a human body with several small birds going into it and says "we're entering a new age, Fred- the synthesis of man and machine as one flesh. This is the future. It's hack or be hacked." Fred looks incredulous. The bird pecks Barney. Barney puts his hands on his head and screams "the machines are turning against us! We have built God only for him to destroy us!" as the bird continues to peck at him.

Halloween: Resurrection (2002)

Pac-Man World: Re-Pac (2022)

Might be one of the greatest remakes EVER.

Takes everything the original did, polishes the entire package, & legitimately makes the experience better than it was before.

QoL, gameplay, visuals. All pristine.

Makes the original qualities shine

The Paradox: NSFW (2025)

A band i discovered on Insta, with an EP of most of their major songs. A really incredible pizza punk band who brings it right back to that late 90's-early 00's sound. Geninuely had alot of their catalog stuck in my head for weeks, and ready for more

Voltaire: Almost Human (2000)

Good vibes, has a solid sound to it.

Not the first thing I'd pick to listen to but it's really good as atmospheric music to play in the background or during a group setting.

Lyrically had some solid pieces as well

King of the Hill Reboot/Season 14: (2025)

Never seen a full ep of the show before, but had a fantastic time with the cast & characters

Incredibly well written and seems very faithful to the original, while carrying forward storylines into a more modern time. Excited for more

Oh no... I actually ENJOYED Halloween Ressurection. ALOT.

It's October. You know what that means?

Finally time to knock THIS one off the bucket list

Wtf the red one is so cute

The fact that SpongeBob Squareparents is a more consistently quality series for video games than many actual AAA franchises is still crazy to me.

Spin-offs aside, most of Sponge's platformers have been exceptionally good, especially in the THQ Nordic era

Might HAVE to go to Ranger Station next year

Images that don't look real

Finally want to go to a big concert

Finally into MCR despite being told for years I remind people of Gerard

Finally earning decent money

*Ticketmaster CEO thinks charging $1000 a ticket is still not enough, and this tour is at the center of a massive financial controversy.

Its Pac-ing time!

By hacking into the Morphing Grid with his Dark Gears, he can summon evil copies of Legendary Rangers to do his bidding

Promised by the villains that they would help find his missing parents, the Ranger Catcher's job is simple, collect the Power Gears & eliminate the Rangers
