Jurassic World Weariness

Hey, Universal!  Come here for a minute.

Have a seat, please.

Relax. 

Uncle Jeff needs to have a talk with you.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3H

Call of the Primitives

This creepy, unseen, raspy and squeaky voice guy made Torbatron (?) which is some kind of energy being. Whatever, back to Autobot and Decepticon battles.

Indeed... It was Fantastic!

Wow two superhero films in the same month that understand the source material! 

It only took living fifty five years to reach this point!

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3G

The Quintesson Journal

This makes so much more sense coming after the last one in the right order than when they aired them in reverse when I was a kid.

Look, Up in the Sky! It's Spoilerman!

Years ago, I was asked if I had to chose between Superheroes and Dinosaurs what would I do? I answered- I don't have to, that's why I like Godzilla.

I did learn the answer for well done Superheroes this week, as instead of seeing the new Jurassic Park like I was supposed to, I saw this again.

Spoilers a plenty for this year's Superman.

Because I cannot keep them to myself anymore.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3F

Nightmare Planet

More horror. Really direct horror. Witches and stuff. Broadcast right on Halloween. 

We’re inside Daniel’s nightmare. Ah.

Things Are Finally Looking Up for Superman

No potential of spoilers review:

YEAAAAHH!!!!!!!!

More detailed, still spoiler free thoughts below (some general references to what is in the trailers.):

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3E

Starscream's Ghost

Old Guy Game Guide- Spider-Man 2 part B

Click here for part A

The game development team did an amazing (ha!) job picking and choosing from multiple, well regarded, past comic book stories (in and out of the main continuity), then added their own spin to create a unique and captivating blend for this collection of tales.

 Kraven and his gang was built up as a viable, city wide threat.                                                                                                   

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3D

Forever Is a Long Time Coming

Another adventure for Blurr, Wreck-Gar, Perceptor and Blaster. Did they really sell that many Autobot microscopes and radios?

Old Guy Game Guide- Spider-Man 2 part A

This is late. Not a big surprise from me and video games. However, the reason is different than  the usual- "I started playing a decade after it was released." 

There will be spoilers. If I could finish the game by now, so can anyone else.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3C

Madman's Paradise

Music is Magic

I've been convinced music is magic for a while. I've alluded to it multiple times in hopes it would inspire me to explain myself. 

So far... nothing.

But - as that is also what I had planned for today- here goes!

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3B

The Killing Jar

New Who Views- 2025 Adventures Were Too Short, in Many Ways

 Well, that was a party. 

Ncuti brings so much joy to the role. Its like the happiness we all get from watching the show all these years has been personified.  I'm a couple weeks late so- Spoilers!

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 3A

Season Three Part One- The menu is old, wonky CGI with a slight quality improvement of Rodimus Prime. At least he gets some respect here. This season drops a lot of LORE and more importantly, also a lot of crazy. Therefore there will be more thoughts (and pictures for the extra crazy ones) per episode. This happens every time I go through a set of films or TV series. Part of it is them getting weirder as they need new ideas. I expect an equally large part is managing the ever increasing number of running gags and personal theories I cannot help interjecting.
 

If You Like Mysteries, Why Not Try the Source?

Transformers Rewatch THE MOVIE!!

Transformers: The Movie

It’s weird how some characters who feel like they belong to the movie and Season Three don’t and others that don’t did come from the post time jump stories. Perceptor and Blaster feel like they should be introduced here. But they’re all over Season Two. (Though Blaster’s cassettes show up in the movie for the first time.) Meanwhile, Ultra Magnus feels like a Season Two classic Autobot and his debut is the film.

Digital Dad In the Boxing Gauntlet Created for Him

I came to a recent realization burning the week's stress away by playing Fight Night Champion, yet again, one weekend. 

One of the main reasons I started videoing fight outcomes was to show my Mother the digital version of my Dad I put into the game. 

One of the reasons I started running fighters through the "Rocky Gauntlet" was to have a series of varied boxer types to test out and adjust boxers I downloaded, or made... including the peak stats middleweight I created to be Digital Dad. 

Dad was the first fighter I was able to win against Ivan Drago with, who until that point was undefeated by huge margins of points and knockouts. 

And yet, I had never recorded Dad's progress through the gauntlet, or even filmed his victories against the characters of this franchise.

To get a little variation, and more cinematic videos, this time I did not set up to record the "instant replay" the game makes accessible after the match (which I am terrible at controlling the speed and picking an angle for). Instead, I snatched  up my phone after every knock down to ensure I recorded the end of each fight, with the far more impressive, "slow motion close up, including commentary in larger venues" replay that is built into the game play portion. 

Naturally, after some normal performances when I reached this realization, on the following night when I was recording, much of the Artificial Rocky Film Cast performed far better than usual.

Either 

A) They knew they were being filmed and upped their game

or

B) Because I'm still in a cast from Achilles Tendon surgery, I didn't have my usual video game night beverage with me, and there was some sort of Johnny Fever-esque reflex enhancement due to alcohol in my system the previous evenings I had played this game.

Either way- ON WITH THE FIGHTS 

Dad Versus Rocky Balboa

Transformers Rewatch G.I. Joe Interlude B

G.I Joe- The Revenge of Cobra 1-5

Hey! 1500 posts! Nifty! No wonder I don't get enough sleep!

Do I have to watch another one? 

Oh wait, this one has the people I wanted to see. And much cooler credits scenes. 

Wild Bill flying in a copter! Flint and Lady Jaye in opening animation! Mutt!

Thunderbolts* Hits Well!

It seems the Marvel Cinematic Universe has learned a great deal from the Deadpool franchise.

Thunderbolts* is full of fun and snarky characters, has great action scenes, plus wild locations and events. 

Transformers Rewatch G.I. Joe Interlude A

Hey, the Real American Heroes on Memorial Day, when we remember REAL American heroes. I'd like to take credit for planning this, but I feel my lack of ability to plan post timing is too well known at this stage.

New(ish) Mutants- NOT Through a Kids' Eyes

 Well, that took a while didn't it?

I was intrigued by the idea of a horror superhero film when this was first announced to be released in 2018. Also, while I didn't collect the New Mutants comics themselves, I was always a fan of the group when they guest starred in stories I was reading.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 2L

Masquerade

Hurray. The Stunticons…again.

Old School Xenomorphs!

Sure, the Alien prequel films were cool and scary... and weird. 

But its nice to see the franchise returning to its roots, in two separate mediums.

First off, Alien Romulus.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 2K

Starscream's Brigade

Daredevil- Born Again, Again

Poor Mathew. The defining story in the comics for Daredevil was Frank Miller's "Born Again." This was a tale where The Man Without Fear lost EVERYTHING, (friends, job, law license, home, other stuff) and then battled his way back from the bottom.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 2J

War Dawn

The Aerialbots take the forefront … again. Push those new toys!!

Venom 3- Another One

I missed another Venom film in the theater. It happens. I feel these movies are a lot like Venom comics.

Transformers Rewatch Original Season 2I

Hoist Goes Hollywood

Heigh Hooooo-Boy!

Fine.

I don't usually do recent Disney Movie posts because of my obvious bias, but I'm gonna talk about Snow White... both of them.

What If: The Show Figured Out What Made the Best Episodes...

 And then didn't stick the landing?

The What If show after three seasons finally grabbed on to the idea that the fun ones are the most enjoyable episodes. They followed that logic all the way through for the most part, then had a pointless, tragic, self sacrifice for the finale.

This movie maintained the trend of the MCU Captain America films in multiple ways.
