2004ArticleVaporman87I was right to say that your passion for the subject matter (whatever it was) would make it worth the read. I've never even heard of this show until now, but your description and praise here makes me interested. Does that scare or fascinate you? LOL Feb 17, 2015View
2005ArticleSilvervixBoth, my friend :P I'm glad it made it to the site :)!Slam Dunk: The jewel of my childhoodFeb 17, 2015View
2006ArticleVaporman87I forgot to mention that your breakdown of the level of detail put into the intro/outro as compared to the actual show pretty much applies to every show from the 80's and early 90's (with the exception of most Filmation cartoons, which always looked about the same throughout). Look at intros for shows like Pole Position, G.I.Joe, Transformers, TMNT, on down the line... the intros always had way better animation.Slam Dunk: The jewel of my childhoodFeb 17, 2015View
2007ArticleSilvervix@Vapor: Yeah, I thought the same when I was typing up but, since the show actually uses different styles to portray the matches AND the regular episodes, I took the chance to praise those sequences as well :P Good tip though!Slam Dunk: The jewel of my childhoodFeb 17, 2015View
2008ArticlejkatzSounds like the show really left an impression on you! I can relate, a few years ago I bought the complete boxed set of Batman: The Animated Series and was finally able to watch full episodes after years and years of relying on vague memories from when I was little of how good it was.

2010ArticleVaporman87@jkatz: So much of what Batman is to us today was culled from that one series. That's a testament to its impact on fans.Slam Dunk: The jewel of my childhoodFeb 17, 2015View
2012ArticleSilvervix@jkatz: It left a really great impression on me. At first I wasn't even motivated to track it down, but when I saw episode 1 again, everything became more clear. I was too lucky to even get to see the episodes I saw when I was little, because otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered to watch this.Slam Dunk: The jewel of my childhoodFeb 17, 2015View

2022Articleechidna64Excellent idea for an article! Thank you for some interesting tidbits of film history! Orion films would also be worthy of consideration! An Ode to Cannon FilmsFeb 18, 2015View
2023ArticleVaporman87Ahhh. Golan and Globus. Favorite targets of MST3K. Great article jkatz. The story of Golan and Globus is SO much like that of John DeLorean that you might think they were related somehow. Big dreams, taking it all the way to the big time, then dying off before the dreams were fully realized. They had some good films, Cobra and MOTU being two of them (even though MOTU could have been SO much better with a bigger budget). But man, they really loved pumping out crap. Crap that we love today for taking itself so seriously, but just plain crap back then. Sell the renter on the VHS cover (<a href="http://www.retro-daze.org/site/article/id/275">as you've mentioned before</a>) and then hope you make the budget back without too much word of mouth crashing your chances. Without the internet, discussing some crappy movie you watched was far less likely to happen. My favorite MST3K Golan and Globus disaster? Alien in LA with Kathy Ireland.
