| 1193 | Article | Vaporman87 | Darn it! I don't know how many times now I have read about kids in school having cool parties (pajama parties, pizza parties, etc.). We never had parties in school. Maybe occasionally we would not have to actually do work in class, and instead sit and talk and snack, but we never had parties. We did have a Halloween celebration in elementary school though. It too had a Haunted House set up in one of the classrooms, and the gymnasium was littered with games, food, and contests. It was fun! | TDitH goes Back to School | Sep 03, 2014 |  |
| 1192 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Awesome article. I totally remember Golden Girls. I was a fan of the G.L.O.W. TV show, so they always caught my eye as having a similar glittery 80's glamour and power. What I remember is that She-Ra could always be found at Toys R Us, but I only ever saw Golden Girls in the toy aisle of the local drug store. They never quite made it to the big stage in my area, I never even knew they had commericials, but then again, I wasn't watching much My Little Pony back then. | Attack of the Warrior Women! | Sep 02, 2014 | |
| 1191 | Article | Hoju Koolander | "Heck, until recently I thought MOTU was a specialty line of toys for juvenile amputees", LOL, classic. Oh the moment of toy buying embarrassment, I know it all too well. Just replace Batman figure with Shannon Doherty from 90210 Barbie doll (totally a for real incident) and you've got my moment of shame. Oh no, I shouldn't have shared that, is your Dad going to have me deported? ;) | Masters of the Toybox | Sep 02, 2014 | |
| 1190 | Article | Hoju Koolander | '95 was a huge year for my musical tastes as well, I can sing at least one line from each of the songs you listed and consider most of them to be essential for an Ultimate 90's playlist. The Power Rangers movie was a major even for me, but yeah, the movie continuity not mixing with the TV series kind of blew it for me. But I did like that song, "Trouble" from the soundtrack and Ivan Ooze was pretty hilarious. | The Summer of 1995 | Sep 02, 2014 | |
| 1189 | Article | Vaporman87 | I think much of the reason that the She-Ra series seemed to benefit from better stories and backgrounds, was that the team at Filmation had lots of time to flesh out stuff and hone their development of the property first with He-Man. I could be wrong, but I've heard that said in "He-Man" circles for years. Also... Hordak may be a step up from Skeletor, but at least He-Man only had ONE annoying comic relief. In She-Ra we get anywhere for two to four of those (Madam Razz, her broom, Kowl, and Hordak's pet). LOL | New Eyes on He-Man and She-Ra | Sep 02, 2014 | |
| 1188 | Article | Hoju Koolander | This was a nice introduction to the site. I was always a He-Man devotee, I even had the light up sword and bop-bag, but in retrospect I can't deny that She-Ra is just a cooler character. Even her origin is better: stolen at birth and raised to serve evil, then redeemed by joining the rebels when her long lost brother shows up. I just watched the first few episodes of her series that made up the Secret of the Sword movie and thought it was waaaay better than 95% of the He-Man shows I grew up on. Plus, Hordak...just the best. | New Eyes on He-Man and She-Ra | Sep 02, 2014 | |
| 1187 | Article | Fulton4V | Wizard was one of my favorite movies growing up. I remember being very excited about mario 3 at the time and thought the kids playing were so lucky. I havent watched it in a long long time. Good movie. | Nintendo Is a Wizard at Product Placement | Aug 28, 2014 | |
| 1186 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ha! Life comes full circle when the bully winds up working the counter at a 7-Eleven. I can sympathize with your plight in Little League. I played Little League baseball for a short time in grade school as well. I quit for reasons I can't really remember. I think it had something to do with witnessing another player on my team get a black eye getting hit by a pitch. I was better suited for Cub Scouts, which I stayed with for a far longer period of time, still quitting it before entering Webelos though. I have a long history of not finishing things. How this website ever came into being is a miracle. LOL | Little (Skills) League | Aug 27, 2014 | |
| 1185 | Article | Benjanime | well the avgn DID point out that the wizard was one big advertisement, mostly for that power glove, and just to make everyone in the U.S. go nuts over super mario bros. 3 before it got released in the states | Nintendo Is a Wizard at Product Placement | Aug 25, 2014 | |
| 1184 | Article | Vaporman87 | I might catch some flack for this, but I have NEVER watched The Wizard. I've known about it for quite some time, but wasn't interested in it when it was released in theaters, and never was able to build up any interest in it thereafter. As has been discussed here in the forums (see: http://retro-daze.org/site/thread/456 ), 1989 was a huge year for movies, with Batman taking the lead. This film never stood a chance to earn my movie ticket money. But now, with the nostalgia factor of it increasing every year, I think it's time I give this movie a viewing. It's a long time coming, but it's time to scratch this one off my bucket list. :) | Nintendo Is a Wizard at Product Placement | Aug 25, 2014 | |
