| 2738 | Article | Slayer3 | That's awesome, I did not know that he did the voice. I can definitely hear it now. | Oct 01, 2015 |  | |
| 2542 | Article | Vaporman87 | I have to say, I wasn't aware that films like this had their own genre... Heavy Metal-sploitation. But it certainly fits. This undoubtedly tapped into a lot of frustration and angst being felt by young fans of Heavy Metal, and kids who've been on the receiving end of a bully's wrath. I was one of those kids too. I was probably one of the shortest kids in my school, and an art nerd at that. So I can relate. Somehow, I managed to steer clear of confrontation for the most part. Sure, there was the occasion when my books were knocked out of my hands from behind, or the stupid "Made Ya Flinch!" fake punch that meant you had to receive a raised knuckle pounding to the arm (seriously... for having good reflexes?), but I kept to myself and away from those I knew might cause me trouble. I can see a movie like this helping to cope with all that. Nowadays, there is such an anti-bully movement going on that such things are borderline criminal. Which, I suppose, is a good thing. But it does make one wonder how prepared kids will be when they face that sort of thing in "real life". You need to know how to face confrontation in life, and how to avoid it. Hopefully that is also something happening in today's schools. But I doubt it. | Heavy Metal-Sploitation Part 1 | Aug 18, 2015 | |
| 2543 | Article | massreality | I LOVE Trick or Treat. I was working at Blockbuster when they were selling off the old VHS copy and I had no idea what it was. I was huge in 80's metal, so I figured, it's got Ozzy and Gene Simmons, I might as well pick it up. I wasn't ready for the awesomeness that ensued. Awesome cheesy 80's horror, with some great music, and over the top special effects. It's an all around good time. | Heavy Metal-Sploitation Part 1 | Aug 18, 2015 | |
| 2547 | Article | Hoju Koolander | As a KISS fan I am ashamed to admit I haven't seen this one, I will have to rectify that this Halloween. I was ridiculed for TRYING to be a heavy metal fan. Had a band and everything, but nobody was buying the fact that the drama kid who played Kenickie in Grease was a metal head. Ah well, I knew what I liked, whether my classmates believed it was up to them. | Heavy Metal-Sploitation Part 1 | Aug 18, 2015 | |
| 2585 | Article | TylerB | Man it's been age's sense I have seen that film! | Heavy Metal-Sploitation Part 1 | Aug 30, 2015 | |
| 2573 | Article | Vaporman87 | I have to say, I wish I could have been more exposed to the great pop cultural icons of Japan in my youth. Even so, their biggest icon of all has always had a special place in my heart. Of course I'm talking about General Tsao's chicken. No, really... Godzilla. I was thoroughly entranced by anything Godzilla related as a kid. I LOVED the movies, even though they were incredibly cheesy. Any time I caught one of the films on television (usually after I was supposed to be asleep or on Saturday afternoons), I left the channel changer alone and stuck around 'til the end. It's common knowledge here that I still have a fascination with Godzilla. I owe Japan a debt of gratitude for his presence alone. | Japanimaniacs: Video Games, Toys and Snacks | Aug 28, 2015 | |
| 2575 | Article | massreality | I love Chocorooms and still have a hard time passing them up at Five Below. That and a bottle of Strawberry Ramune is the ultimate snack fix for me. Ramune is the glass bottle where you break the marble off into the bottle to open it. So it's fun, interactive, and delicious! | Japanimaniacs: Video Games, Toys and Snacks | Aug 29, 2015 | |
| 2584 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 Godzilla was so embraced by America, it's almost as if he has dual-citizenship. My favorite rental of the G-Man was King Kong vs. Godzilla, but it never registered to me as strictly Japanese when I was a kid, despite the obvious dubbing over Japanese actors. @massreality Is the marble edible? Sounds like a game where you try not to hoke to death ;) Have you ever tried those Koala cookies with the chocolate filling? I left those out of the article for space, but that was another Japanese snack I really enjoyed. | Japanimaniacs: Video Games, Toys and Snacks | Aug 29, 2015 | |
| 2586 | Article | massreality | I have tried the Koala cookies, and they are amazing as well! As for the drink, the marble is not edible. You use the top to push it into the bottle, and the glass is shaped to hold the marble. It's hard to explain, so here is a YouTube video showing how to open one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrbpB-Qr41k | Japanimaniacs: Video Games, Toys and Snacks | Aug 30, 2015 | |
