    Worst sequels

    Oh, man... the stories about that one that I'd have to re-look up and re-read for accuracy. But yeah. that system was squeezed out by up and coming console systems from companies that have more consumer goods that if the systems didn't do well, they still had everything else to sell. That's...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Well, yeah... now with little kids because they shoved that down their throats with an annoying level of anviliciousness. Especially when it's the older kids that are the problem. I don't think the commercial was trying to get at anything being healthy, now that I think about it. 80's...

    The Clarence thread

    I really like how we've gotten a view into Sumo's world the past 2 episodes. One of many kids who's family needs to shop at a thrift store. I had a feeling he'd have a level of Kenny McCormack/ Nelson Muntz type low class in his upbringing. Makes a nice contrast from Jeff's sparkling clean...

    Elmo in Grouchland: NTSC Widescreen?

    If Sony still owns the rights to this movie, I'm shocked that they haven't released it on Blu-Ray with a widescreen transfer. The full frame original suffers the same ugly slow down panning that made Ghostbusters unwatchable (until, of course, they released a widescreen version). I don't buy...

    Coming Soon: Sesame Street Season 45

    Ugh. I hate when Wikipedias are vandalized by those kinds of fans that think that writing it on Wikipedia makes it so. Yeah, we ALL love Fifi LaFume, but posting "she gonna get hur on moviee" isn't going to give her a freaking movie. However, it would be nice if Sesame Street upheld the...

    Coming Soon: Sesame Street Season 45

    So, that makes at least 5 Crumby Pictures that are to premiere on the show's next season. 2 held over from last season, one leaked online for some reason (was it to tie in with that bomb "Legends of Oz?" Still think they should have released the Star Wars one May the Fourth), and 2 just...

    Kid probably doesn't want to burp every 10 seconds either.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    The sodas are boring because some knucklehead didn't close the caps tightly enough and they've all gone flat.

    Commercial rant time...

    Those are terrible, and somehow Blue Tax doesn't seem legit as a result of: Below amateur level of CGI visuals Constantly changing the telephone number/website advertising during local daytime television, usually on obscure channels. I wouldn't trust my money with them at all, actually...

    Rumor: New Sesame Street Movie in the Works

    Sesame Workshop was never contacted with the intent by a production company to make a movie. You'd think the writer tapped to write the film would have been the first person to know he was writing the script. he didn't. This was a rumor, or at best a murmur that didn't get past the intention...

    Commercial rant time...

    Yeah, but that part of it I accept as the same, lame hard sell for woman focused projects. Anything and everything is conspiring to make you fat, I get that. But these fake geeky sounding songs are giving me a headache. Not everything sung by a woman has to sound like it could out quirky a...

    Commercial rant time...

    There are so many trends in commercials that I've grown tired of. Small, children's diorama made of wood (done entirely in CGI) spinning around to make something look "homey" (Panera Bread, Cracker Barrel, Uncle Ben's) Loud, obnoxious on screen text of what the even louder, more obnoxious...

    Worst sequels

    What was even better was that short lived Marvel comic series they had. Too bad the cartoon series couldn't have been like that. I did love the cartoon series, though. Heh. The Vader and Oscar scene was the only reason I went to see that one.

    MMW Reactions Theory

    If the critics salvaged the film based on merits of what the film actually was, I'd understand. But basically panning it through disappointment that they'd dare do a goofy plot line instead of the emotionally manipulative story of the last film, and complaining that the film wasn't as human...

    Muppets Tonight what went wrong?

    Seinfeld Babies was a one time thing. And it was an example of them being brilliant with pop culture, as opposed to the Pig segments that ran on the same jokes about Randy and Andy being stupid. There's a lot of good they did with pop culture based segments, just not the pig based stuff...

    Doraemon FINALLY coming to the US

    Worst sequels

    It would be easier to say which Disney DTV sequels were actually good. Some of them were, actually. I don't see why Hunchback needed a sequel. Of course, I never actually saw the thing. But as sanitized as the Disney movie was, it was still one of the darkest things the studio ever put out...

    Disney's Hercules: Thoughts on Icarus? Annoying? Funny?

    That's...very oddly specific for a thread. Icarus was one of my favorite things about the TV show (that and James Woods coming back as Hades). I honestly can't remember much about there series other than the fact I actually liked it over the movie. Shame Disney basically hates it's...
