1089Articleechidna64Much like Vaporman, this has been the definitive Hobbit movie for me as well. I greatly prefer their version of Gollum, Bilbo, Gandalf, Smaug, Elrond, etc. essentially the whole lot. And yes, the music is a big part of the film and it sets the mood throughout (which is usually tense). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPkqjc23yqs The animation is gorgeous, my only gripe is the kaleidoscope effect they use to show death (you know it when you see it) and the battle of the five armies is lazily dots and scribbles fighting each other. Other than that the Hobbit is awesome! No other medium has captured the tone and narrative structure so perfectly. This is the version that I will be showing my kids.  May 20, 2014View
1408ArticleVaporman87Much as it does suck for it to become official, the truth that we all never really accepted was that Saturday Morning Cartoons died a long time ago. And by that, I mean they died when the 3 (and then 4) major networks got out of the SMC business. Smaller networks like CW may have carried the torch on for a bit longer, but not everyone gets a CW channel, and even if they do, fewer actually watch it. No my friend, Saturday Morning Cartoon had one foot in the grave for a long time. It's just really hard to accept the whole truth of it when it becomes official. Apparently we nostalgia nerds aren't the only ones who felt that way either, as I noticed a plethora of articles on the subject that headlined the largest sites on the net, including Yahoo!. They will be missed.R.I.P. Saturday Morning CartoonsOct 09, 2014View

5265ArticleoniparMr. Magic, ah that's too bad. It was a little different than your standard slime...almost like the lovechild of slime and silly putty. Vaporman, the slime pit! I still love the gross out toys and games. I have a couple Dr Dreadful sets and creepy crawlers setups in my closet right now.For the Love of SlimeSep 04, 2020View

3154ArticleVaporman87Motorized jeeps, Super NES, Playstation... oh my! These are all really great choices. My own personal favorites through the years included the original NES, as well as an ATV... both in the same year. That was probably one of the greatest ever Christmases as far as gifts were concerned. I also really loved the year my step-brother (from one of my mom's marriages) and I received ninja outfits (not the cheap costume kind, but the kind you could order though Martial Arts magazines).

1862ArticleHoju KoolanderMost people run into those types of "Modeling Schools" at malls from what I hear. It's so weird that the school sanctioned such an obvious cash-grab. Do you remember those TV ads that ran on daytime TV for the Barbizon School of Modeling way back when? They usually came on right after a commercial for Survival auto insurance with the guys playing poker, "Are you insured?" "Yes." "By Survival?" "No." "I can't take that bet." So cheesy, cracks me up.Model StudentJan 30, 2015View
2946ArticleoniparMost of those I've never heard of, but there are a couple there that I used to get and haven't thought about in YEARS! I actually used to get lemon heads all the time from my ice cream truck, and occasionally would get the melon one and the apple one. They were definitely rarer. I'm not sure I ever had the melody pop with a moving stick, but I definitely had whistle pops! 4 Rare Retro CandiesOct 15, 2015View
