I think this is the bad guy. Now we come to the final disc of the set, and the last five episodes of Sailor Moon R- Chibi-Usa, the annoying brat who’s FINALLY been revealed as the daughter of Sailor Moon & Tuxedo Mask from the future… has been kidnapped by the Black Moon Clan, and Wiseman’s final plan comes to fruition. Now, it’s very clear … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (85-89)
Depending on how you look at it, I got a lot more done in the back half of January than I did in the front end. By that, I mean that I watched a lot more movies per day and played a lot more video games. I read a bunch of comics, too. Well… a bunch of issues of one title. But did I do … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: January Part 2
Today’s topic: The Best Comic Book Movies of the 2010’s! The 2010’s were a perfect storm of GREAT comic book movies and relatively average everything else movies. There was stuff I liked, obviously, or I wouldn’t have made my own aforementioned list, but there was little that really got my blood pumping. Not in the same way the best comic movies of the decade did, … Continue reading Top Ten Comic Book Movies of the 2010’s
PETER PAN (1953) Written by: J.M. Barrie (original work), Ted Sears, Erdman Penner, Bill Peet, Winston Nibler, Joe Rinaldi, Milt Banta, Ralph Wright & Bill Cottrell Arguably one of Disney’s most famous movies, particularly for its era, and it’s funny because it’s one of the few that’s REALLY famous for non-Disney-related stuff as well (things like Hunchback and Tarzan were overshadowed be the presence of famous predecessors)- though it’s still … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Peter Pan
“The Head” is a short-lived series from MTV, created for their indie-animation showcase “Liquid Television” (where “Beavis & Butt-head” & “AEon Flux” also came from)- it’s the tale of a freakishly-deformed trade-school student who is charged with halting an alien invasion by the alien that lives in his head. It lasted a couple years in 1995 and 1996, and is primarily a set of shorts … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: The Head
See this guy? He’s the “Wise Vizier” character in this entire season, and spends all his time just giving advice. Except only the dumbest kids by this point didn’t realize that he’s our true Final Villain. Time for more Sailor Moon R! Esmeraude has taken leadership of the Black Moon Clan’s war against Neo-Tokyo’s past, Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask are FINALLY back together again, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (80-84)
Welcome to our newest feature here at SWO Productions: Entertainment Rex! Twice a month, I will look back on what I’ve read, watched, and experienced and let you know if it can be recommended or not (is that… semi-monthly? Bi-monthly is every other month, right? What means “twice a month”? Semi… Bi-sometimesly? Anyone have any help here?). I’ll be honest with you… mostly I am … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: January
I don’t watch a lot of TV. There’s no real reason for it. I used to watch a lot of the ol’ boob tube. But I just never have the nerve to sit down and consume television these days. I think the advent of streaming content has had a negative effect on me. My wife watches approximately every show that airs on every channel, but … Continue reading TV Review: Recent Comic Book Properties on TV
ALICE IN WONDERLAND (1951) Writers: Lewis Carroll (original), Milt Banta, Den Connell, William Cottrell, Joe Grant, Winston Hibler, Dick Huemer, Dick Kelsey, Tom Oreb, Bill Peet, Erdman Penner, Joe Rinaldi, Ted Sears & John Walbridge This is a famously-nutty movie, giving motivation to millions of psychedelic drug-users the world over. Which makes it all the funnier that it disappointed critics & audiences when it first came … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Alice in Wonderland
Finally, a new Sailor appears- the older, wiser Sailor Pluto! EPISODE #75: Another one I remember- Chibi-Usa is threatened by the Grim Man, while all of a sudden Prince Dimande brings up the “Malefic Black Crystal”, which seeks out targets. And of course Esmeraude is in love with Dimande. His brother, Prince Saphir, is also seen- he has one of the more interesting designs in … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (75-79)
I have never kept track of these things, but I’m pretty sure I saw more individual movies in 2020 than in any other year. It certainly feels like it! The closest I have ever come before was in 2008 when I kept track of my New Year’s Resolution that year to see twenty-six unique movies in theater (I wanted to average one every two weeks). … Continue reading The 2020 Movie Experience
So all right… I should have expected this. The records will show that I have been extremely excited for Wonder Woman 1984 since the very first trailer was unveiled way back in the Before Times. I was geared up for the Jenkins/Gadot follow up to their 2017 movie in a way that few movies in the last year have made me feel. I haven’t been … Continue reading Wonder Woman 1984 Review
CINDERELLA (1950) Written By: Charles Perrault (original), Ken Anderson, Perce Pearce, Homer Brightman, Winston Hibler, BilL Peet, Erdman Penner, Harry Reeves, Joe Rinaldi, Ted Sears & Maurice Rapf So in 1950, after YEARS of being forced to make cheap-ass “Compilations Of Shorts” films, Walt Disney FINALLY had enough money in the Baby Boom Era to make a REAL picture again. Cinderella, based off of a famous story … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Cinderella
More Sailor Moon reviews! When last I left off, the final episodes aired in the initial run in North America were posted here. As of this point… we reach the episodes I CAN’T quote off the top of my head! Villains I barely remember, turns that I have to actually read to recall, and more. Exciting times! So the Sailors all have their new attacks, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (69-74)
Oh, the sad, strange tale of Fox’s New Mutants movie. The last of the studio’s X-Men related movies was delayed about two and a half years in total between the Disney buyout, planned reshoots, scheduling conflicts with other X-flicks, and COVID-19. It seemed destined for film purgatory–a film that was only ever going to be available in low quality online pirate copies, and which would … Continue reading Movie Review: New Mutants
