Stealing Jokes From 1999: A Young Justice Retrospective, S1 E1-2

Well, my Buffy The Vampire Slayer retrospective as a first time watcher seems to be going along pretty well. Why not start another show? My intention was originally to wait until I was done with Buffy before starting anything else, but then I realized two things: First, content is still king, and I am quickly about to hit my wall on pre-written material. And secondly, … Continue reading Stealing Jokes From 1999: A Young Justice Retrospective, S1 E1-2

The Chosen: Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Present Day Smith pushed open the door to room 216B and remembered being a sophomore and having Algebra with Mrs. Anderson there. Every day, he would sit in the last row, pull out his book and position it in front of him just enough so that she could not tell he was pantomiming drum beats he had been dreaming up in his head. … Continue reading The Chosen: Chapter 8

Jab’s Reviews: TMNT (2003 Cartoon Villains)

And now it’s time for a quintet of characters from the 2003 TMNT series- I’m far less familiar with these guys, but I’ve seen a bunch of episodes starring the first two. People love the 2003 series, but this is a complete failure of a design to me. It’s literally just a “Man In Black”. Who would want a toy of this character? The 1980s … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: TMNT (2003 Cartoon Villains)

AP Productions: Astra Machina #8

Jennifer Sawyer didn’t seem troubled by the fact that Astra Machina had positioned herself between her and her friends or that it had been revealed she had poisoned the other scientists. She simply returned to her desk in a surprisingly casual manner, then sat on it once again before speaking, “Years ago, I sent a request to the US government for a sample of Neutronium. … Continue reading AP Productions: Astra Machina #8

Stew’s Reviews: World War Wendigo

We’re still reviewing some of the books I picked up at the discount store that I mentioned last week. And since I wrote that article, I made a second trip out and picked up ANOTHER JSA trade that they had for sale, so I’m still stocking up on those. So since I have noticed the sale, I’ve picked up two JSA books and two X-Men … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: World War Wendigo

I Write A Haiku: A BTVS Retrospective, Season 3 Episode 18

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! Buffy is out hunting! One of my two favorite ways this show opens! She is battling two fleshy monsters who don’t have mouths. Hey, is this that silent episode I hear so much about?! Neat! She kills one, but the other gets away. The dead one bleeds white-out for some reason? It absorbs into Buffy’s skin and vanishes, which … Continue reading I Write A Haiku: A BTVS Retrospective, Season 3 Episode 18

AP Productions: Astra Machina #7

Jennifer Sawyer’s penthouse in LA was a lavish, two story house overlooking the ocean that was very stylish but Dr. Rawlings and the other scientists took note that there were no personal photos or indications that Sawyer had a hobby or an interest in anything at all. It was without personality. Some chalked it up to the penthouse only being a summer home and others … Continue reading AP Productions: Astra Machina #7

Pop-Tart Quest: Apple Jacks

Oh no. Well; this brings back awful memories. Apple Jacks isn’t Pop-Tarts’ first foray into making cereal flavored Tarts. They previously tried this with Fruit Loops, and as you can see from the link I posted, those were ABOMINABLE. Just absolutely sickly sweet garbage people food. Right down there with Watermelon on the list of “I can’t even finish these” Tarts. It was a big … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Apple Jacks

Unwelcome Review

NOTE: Definite Spoilers below for Unwelcome (and two other older Shudder movies–Dawn Of The Beast and Night’s End–actually)! I love a good tonal shift in movies… as long as one of two things are true: -The first being that the movie juggles multiple tones effectively, and nothing really feels out of place in the universe that the film set up. -Or the second: the movie … Continue reading Unwelcome Review

A PlayStation Commercial… Errrr, A Buffy The Vampire Slayer Retrospective, S3 E16-17

It feels weird starting off with even number episodes. Stupid Xander! This is all your fault, too. We start off with that Anyanka demon lady talking to her… boss, I guess? He is reprimanding her for losing her powers, and she asks for them back. He says no, which is just sensible. You can’t have your demon minions just losing their jewelry willy-nilly. She decides … Continue reading A PlayStation Commercial… Errrr, A Buffy The Vampire Slayer Retrospective, S3 E16-17
