Donkey Kong Country Trilogy, My Dream Game
I’m a big fan of the Donkey Kong Country trilogy of games. If anyone asked me what my favorite game is, I’ll say Donkey Kong Country. The level design and game play are both fun and the music is fantastic. Donkey Kong 64 was a sequel, sure, but it wasn’t ever Donkey Kong Country 4 [...]
Properties that Should Be Movies: M.A.S.K. and Dino-Riders
I’m going to start writing a bit about some of my favorite properties when I was young, that I think would make excellent films. Especially if the properties are handled correctly.
Now, some of us know that Voltron and ThunderCats are both being developed for the big screen. If you didn’t: Voltron is going to be [...]
The Karate Kid Remake with Jaden Smith? No Thanks!
So, news has hit the web today that a deal has been made to remake The Karate Kid. Not only that, but it will be set in middle-school. But that’s not all. It will be a starring vehicle for Will Smith’s son, Jaden Smith.
To truly understand the problem that this has caused, we have to [...]
The Real Ghostbusters DVD Set Shipping November 25th!
I grew up watching Ghostbusters. The Real Ghostbusters was a cartoon that I would never miss, and when it changed to “Slimer! and the Real Ghostbusters,” even at a young age I noticed the animation quality wasn’t quite the same. Slimer was a popular character that made the company believe that creating a show based [...]
Future of Forestry - Advent Christmas EP
One of my favorite bands is Future of Forestry. Today, I discovered that they have released a short EP for Christmas. Called the Advent Christmas EP, it features “O Come O Come Emmanuel,” “What Child Is This,” “The First Noel,” “Little Drummer Boy,” and “O Holy Night.” I haven’t listened to it yet, but [...]
Lost Returns January 21 with Season 5
One of my favorite shows, Lost, is returning to Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. for the fifth season. It’s going to premiere with a clip show, presumably at 8, followed by a two-hour premiere.
Not only that, but the season will be seventeen episodes long, instead of the sixteen that were originally ordered. This is to [...]
The Book Isn’t Always Better - Part 1: Big Fish
This is probably the first in a series of articles on the times that a movie has either been as good as the book, acted as a great complement to the book, or bested the book. This is the result of being tired of hearing the misconception that “the book is always better.” The truth [...]
Oliver and Company: 20th Anniversary Edition DVD Details
Oliver & Company is a movie that came out when I was really young. I slightly remember seeing it in theatres. I also had the soundtrack on an audio cassette (it feels weird typing that word). Disney had released the film on DVD before, but it wasn’t exactly a great release even though it was [...]
Ghostbusters: The Other Side #1: Review
This week, the first issue in the new Ghostbusters comic book mini-series, Ghostbusters: The Other Side was released. It is being published by IDW.
You may be aware that there was another Ghostbusters comic book mini-series a few years ago, published by 88mph, called Ghostbusters: Legion. I enjoyed that series a lot. The art was really [...]
Bill Murray’s talking Ghostbusters 3
It’s about time that Bill Murray said more than, well nothing, about Ghostbusters. Up until the last month or so, Murray hasn’t really said anything with regard to Ghostbusters, at all. But since recording dialog for the video game, and the writers being hired, Murray seems to have a lot to say.
“I think it’d be [...]
