| 2192 | Article | Vaporman87 | I never actually watched a single episode of the show. I did catch bits and pieces of Sabrina, but that's about the extent of my Melissa Joan Hart experience. Even so, it was neat to learn of this spin-off that didn't take. It's always neat to see what could have been. I can't imagine how many shows have pilots or episodes that have never been released. A whole channel could likely be dedicated to such things. THAT would be cool. | Apr 03, 2015 |  | |
| 2191 | Article | EISXUOIS | I shared the same shocks as you with all three games. But there was another for me that was a shock- the death of Nei in Phantasy Star 2 on Genesis. Obviously I got over it but the world makes you dull to stuff that shocked you as a kid. It's good that you still have heart like that to be hurt from a characters death. I have felt nothing like that in games recently but in tv Game of Thrones has shocked me quite a bit. Good storytelling and good imagination let you leave the problems of this life for a while. I enjoyed reading your experiences. | Shock Me, Shock Me, Shock Me… | Apr 03, 2015 | |
| 2190 | Article | AnEarly90sMan | The Technodrome wasn't out in 1988. Turtle-Mania didn't sweep the nation until April of 1990. | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 02, 2015 | |
| 2189 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 Glad to know they acknowledge the past on the new series, I did hear about the Rob Paulsen thing. Didn't they do a similar crossover with the 80's incarnation in the Turtles Forever special with the last 2-D version of the TMNT? @echidna64 I haven't seen much from that duo, although I hear the names a lot. I did watch their Bayou Billy review just to make sure I wasn't rehashing the same old stuff, when I wrote that article. I'll have to check out their thoughts on the TMNT. | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 02, 2015 | |
| 2188 | Article | echidna64 | BTW have you seen the latest Nostalgia Critic/AVGN episode on the Ninja Turtles? | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 01, 2015 | |
| 2187 | Article | echidna64 | Huge turtle fan here! Thanks Hoju for stirring the turtle soup of memories! I had the Technodrome playset as a kid and it was literally my favorite toy of all-time. So many climatic battles took place there between the many incarnations of the Turtle dudes and their many enemies. | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 01, 2015 | |
| 2186 | Article | Vaporman87 | No doubt about it, the early days of "Turtlemania" were the best. I thoroughly enjoyed both the cartoon series and the first live action film, though I've commented before that I thought it could have done a bit better with a little more star power and some deeper character exploration. Naturally I had some of the toys, but my brother was in their prime demographic (I was around 14 - 18) so naturally he had more. Even so, I enjoyed the turtle merchandise. One thing I will say for the newest animated incarnation... they have gone out of their way to pay homage to it's predecessor. Including all the old favorites like "fly" Baxter, Leatherhead, Metal Head, Rat King, and more. Once, while visiting Dimension X, the turtles look into a portal and see their 1980's cartoon counterparts walking down the street with April in her classic yellow jumpsuit. The original voice actors from that cartoon portray themselves once more at the end of that episode (in a little pre-credits nugget for the fans). They had several episodes that took place at April's relative's farm (with the house looking VERY MUCH like the one from the 1990 movie. In another recent episode, Casey Jones uses the classic line, "The class is Pain 101. You're instructor is Casey Jones." Then his opponent retorts with "Did you really just say that kid?" LOL. Good stuff. They've had voice talent come in like Corey Feldman doing "Slash" (he did Donatello's voice in the 1990 film) and of course, Rob Paulson doing Donatello. It's a nice way to introduce the turtles to a new generation while showing some love for those of us who grew up on the originals. | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 01, 2015 | |
| 2182 | Article | vkimo | I've literally been reading this article like a novel since it was published this morning. And I'm kind of bummed now that I finished it, could of read more of your stories for weeks. "Picturing our times together through the fog of ages is now like seeing these occurrences through a rain blurred window. Colors fade. Details melt. But what does remain as clear as a Crystal Pepsi is the joy and love we shared." Now that's just great writing. I love the narrative and your detail. The maps made the read so much more engaging. I can't believe you and your buds walked that long of a distance. Hersh seems like such an awesome dog. I'd love to have a canine companion like that. Too bad he didn't leave one of those kids thumbless! Also, kudos to nailing the annoying mom, must have felt good. I wish I had half the gall you did, seems like the Five O knew you by name haha TU #8 I have a feeling this contest just turned into a race for 2nd place.. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 31, 2015 | |
| 2181 | Article | massreality | I did. I won it on one of those frog smashing games. I actually wrote up an article once about the items in that picture. I'll see about porting it over here soon. | Rec Center Memories - Chicken Fight | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2180 | Article | Ruespieler | Thanks vape for taking care of that issue so quickly! Anyway, I'm glad you mentioned that the piece took you back to your own childhood pets. That's exactly what I wanted, to transport the reader back into the TARDIS of their own imaginations, but in a positive way. To remember the times that were good, so to speak. It's why I didn't "Old Yeller" you. Yeah runnin' away, it's a great idea for about two hours. Learned right then and there that, even on the worst days, home ain't such a bad place to be. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 30, 2015 | |
