Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Lion King (animated)

“Avenge me KIMBA– I mean SIMBA.” THE LION KING (1994) Written by: Irene Mecchi, Jonathan Roberts & Linda Woolverton So with the Disney Renaissance still going strong, they released a risky little picture about lions that was only INSPIRED by other stories rather than basically taking the whole thing and Disney-fying it. However, it was THIS film that turned out to be the uber-smash of the … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Lion King (animated)

Jab’s TMNT Review: Overview Part 2

For part one in this series, click HERE! THE PLAYMATES TOY LINE:-Well crap, you want something every kid I knew was OBSESSED with, back in the day? Look no further. These toys were AWESOME- some were incredibly-detailed, some were HUGE, and plenty of them kicked ass. My brother and I had all kinds of these things- General Tragg, Muckman, Baxter Stockman, my beloved Casey Jones, … Continue reading Jab’s TMNT Review: Overview Part 2

Netflix Marvel Retrospective – The Defenders

Welcome back. So here it is, The Defenders – the big team up miniseries the first few Marvel Netflix shows had been leading up to. All the main heroes had their own debuts and it was time for them to have a big `ol crossover event. Unlike the Avengers, this show was more street level and was R-rated, allowing a grittier feel. It also benefitted … Continue reading Netflix Marvel Retrospective – The Defenders

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon SuperS (143-145)

Welcome back for more reviews of the “All Chibi-Moon, All The Time” season of Sailor Moon! We just got done a bunch of Filler Episodes while they wait for Naoko Takeuchi to write more issues of the manga, and some times actually move forward and change here!

Episode 17: Sin City

The night is dark like a… really dark thing.

Okay, I’m not good at the Sin City thing.

Entertainment Rex: November 2021 Part 2

After seeing how close I had come by October, I knew that I’d definitely get 200 movies in by the end of 2021 unless something truly went awry. So then came the next thought… could I do it by the end of November? And that led me on a film spree where I averaged about a movie per day, so let’s get the heck into … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021 Part 2

Netflix Marvel Retrospective – Iron Fist Season 1

Like Luke Cage, this series gave us the first live action version of Iron Fist after many video game and toon versions (the character didn’t even get included in any of the Macey’s Thanksgiving Day Parades in the 80’s). Both Danny Rand and Colleen Wing were played by Game of Thrones alums – Finn Jones and Jessica Henwick. At this point, the Marvel Netflix hype … Continue reading Netflix Marvel Retrospective – Iron Fist Season 1

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon SuperS (138-140)

Welcome back! It’s time for more of the worst season ever, as I try to find good things to say about it! Or at least critique why stuff is bad! Well, our first three bad guys are at least delightfully weird, right? The bad guys (who are the Dead Moon Circus, but still have no name) are still hunting Pegasus, and working for someone named … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon SuperS (138-140)

Entertainment Rex: November 2021

This is… very quickly becoming my “Here’s my recent movie reviews” post, and I am okay with that. When I started Entertainment Rex this year, the principle was that I’d discuss everything I watched, played, read, and otherwise enjoyed in the last half of a month. But I have been on an absolute movie TEAR of late, and it’s making it hard to do much … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021

Jab’s Reviews: Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988): Written by: Gary K. Wolf (original novel), Jeffery Price & Peter S. Seaman This movie is considered, along with The Little Mermaid, as having helped kick off the Renaissance Age of Animation. Based off of a novel called Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, they changed a lot of the plot and surroundings (the author admits this was a good idea, and the movie version … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Top Ten: TV Theme Songs (By THE MAGIC NUMBER IS 3!)

My name is Kalvin and you can find me weekly on The Magic Number Is 3. Now that we’ve got the plugs and … Continue reading Top Ten: TV Theme Songs (By THE MAGIC NUMBER IS 3!)

Jab’s Reviews: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Series Overview

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES:-And now, owing to the big turnout in votes for the Ninja Turtles, I’ll be doing a big set of builds for the franchise! This will start off with the 1990s Movie series, then follow up with builds surrounding the trio of cartoons (leaving off Rise of the TMNT, which is too new and unknown to me)- a handful of characters will thus … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Series Overview

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon SuperS (137-139)

It’s time for more of Sailor Moon SuperS! And this time around, the remaining Amazon Trio members FINALLY get to do something! I guess Naoko Takeuchi finally debuted their powers in the manga, so the animators had something to go on. They’re still hunting down the “Holders of Beautiful Dreams” based off of whom they want to bone, though. EPISODE #137: Holy Hell! FINALLY Fish’s … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon SuperS (137-139)
