Happy Fall everyone! I'm still not used to its being so dark when I wake up. I still have the June brain where I expect it to be bright and sunshiney at 6am. Now I get up, see that it's still dark out, think "Oh, good, it must be the middle of the night", then... Continue Reading →
THE LITTLE MERMAID (1989): Written by: Hans Christian Andersen (original story), Roger Allers, Howard Ashman, Ron Clements & John Musker And now we come to the TRUE game-changer at the studio- the movie that started The Disney Renaissance, and helped define a decade. Coming out in the late 1980s after a series of "scratchy outline" movies... Continue Reading →
Welcome back, chums! Last week, we looked at my ten favorite Pokemon from the original series of games, Red, Blue, and Yellow! We're moving on to Generation 2 this week to see who is the creme de la creme from the Gameboy Color era of Pokemon. I love Generation 2, and I had a copy... Continue Reading →

SPORTS! Here at SWO Productions, we haven't had a good ol' sports draft yet. Lots of movie and TV drafts, sure. But sports? Nothing yet. Let's change that! We partnered with three great podcasters to draft the BEST NFL QUARTERBACKS OF ALL TIME! Check out our draft below, and then don't forget to vote on... Continue Reading →

Mannix (original novel), Ted Berman, Larry Clemmons, David Michener, Peter Young & Burny Mattinson Another one based off of a forgotten novel (with many changes- initially Tod & Copper didn't know each other; Chief also dies in the novel), this one wasn't a major hit,...

Happy Pride Month, everyone! I would like to first apologize for my really lame attempt at Pride-ing up the sWo logo for June; I have no graphic design skill. I did, however, have a rainbow's worth of logos made for me by the incredible Manster over at Pint O Comics, though, so I just... mashed... Continue Reading →
On the whole, I definitely like more sitcoms than any other genre of television. Sure, high-intensity dramas are great, and Breaking Bad might be the single greatest show ever made, but after a while, the perpetually high-stakes honestly all kind of blends together. And I run hot and cold on shows like these. For every Breaking Bad... Continue Reading →
All right, for those you wanting a recap, here it is: This is a region-by-region blog series where I discuss various topics from each of the six Pokemon generation of games. I compare, on a scale of 1-to-6 (where a ranking of 6 means the games get 6 points as the BEST out of the... Continue Reading →
For the rest of this month's Entertainment Recommendations, check out my earlier post HERE. I, uh... I usually meander on a bit here, but I just got back from a jog and I am very sweaty and hot. So let's just get into the fun, right? I still have to finish packing and shower and... Continue Reading →
COVID-19 is OVER! I mean... it's not. It's still a very serious global situation. Get your vaccine and continue to wear a mask! Follow CDC guidelines and let's keep trending in the right direction as a society! That said... I'm vaccinated, and I refuse to spend another summer locked in my house. This upcoming weekend,...

2. Johto, Generation 2 - Gold, Silver, Crystal (and, in remakes, HeartGold and SoulSilver) I’m a bit biased here, because I loved Generation 2 for a long time. Not only was Pokemon Crystal my favorite game in the series for years and years, but I still have a functioning copy of it to this day.... Continue Reading →
Hey there everyone! We've got a little something different today, so I hope you don't mind. Not the typical meandering on about comic books or movies or Pokemon or Image Comics today, sorry! I would say our website goes off-target a lot, but I'm never fully convinced what its target actually is! No, I wanted... Continue Reading →
So we are almost completely through our first month of the new SWO Productions! How did our first scheduled month go? What's ahead for the site? What else is going on in The Order? You may have questions, but I have answers! So April ended up being a pretty great month for us here at... Continue Reading →
