1313ArticleNLoganI pegged you for* Sep 23, 2014View
1314ArticleVaporman87@NLogan - Yeah, I spent a few years at the He-Man.org website contributing mostly in the Fan Art Forum. Then one day the site Admin, Val Staples, asked me if I wanted to put the silly He-Man comic strip I and Devin "Goatman" Duchscherer had been posting into the newest iteration of the comic (which was, at the time, The Rise of The Snakemen series). Naturally I went totally bonkers and was like "YES YES YES YES YES!" We did four strips, with three of them getting published before Mattel told Val that the strip had to go because they didn't like how their characters were being treated in the strips (as buffoonish, egotistical, lazy, confrontational, etc.). It was fun while it lasted.KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueSep 23, 2014View
1316ArticleNLoganThat doesn't sound all that different from filmation's treatment of motu. I still frequent the site incognito under a different name. I am eyeballing those books in the point store. I haven't read them yet. I have heard that they shed a few details on mattel's re-use of existing molds as in my article. I stumbled upon that wjilebuying some motu for my son on ebay and came scross what I thought was a weird variant that turned out to be big Jim. Then the hunt was on for others. And now back to your regularly scheduled hoju article. KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueSep 23, 2014View
1317ArticleHoju KoolanderYeah, I think I'm going to order both those books from the points store as well. Fascinating story I'm sure. There's actually a documentary called Toy Masters this guy has been trying to put out for years featuring interviews with the major players in the MOTU story. The trailer (which apparently got taken down) has one of the creators referring to the other's claims as "Pure Barbarian Fiction". You can check out the site here: http://www.toymastersmovie.com/KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueSep 23, 2014View
1318ArticleNLoganI wanna hear more claims to fame stories like Hoju's. If you met a famous person tell us about it in the forums. http://www.retro-daze.org/site/thread/id/908KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueSep 24, 2014View
3062ArticleDravenWe never had the Disney channel. I watched it on ABC on Saturday mornings and before we even had a VCR I used to record the show on my cassette recorder/player so I could sing the songs again later. I had a huge crush on Stacy! I don't remember watching it after around 1988 so that's why I don't remember any of the newer players like Jennifer Love Hewatt. It definitely got me into singing!KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueNov 02, 2015View
1284ArticlevkimoI agree 110% on how modern horror lacks charisma and that right mix of 11 herbs and spices. If I want to get grossed out I'll just around looking for roadkill!What to Watch on HalloweenSep 20, 2014View
1285ArticleVaporman87Indubitably. I see scenes from things like Saw and think UGH!!! It's all about trying to make it seem as real and awful as possible. Looking back on the slasher films of the past, there was the effort to make it look real, but it was still like trying to believe that that guy in the Godzilla suit really was smashing buildings. There was no way your mind could be tricked into disgust because the it was all still fake looking. Nowadays, it looks so real, and my mind can handle it. Not to mention, as Hoju did, that there is just no "fun" in it. No humor. Just sheer disgust and vileness. Halloween should be about fun first, frights second.

1289ArticleNLoganFor Disney I would say The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is about as Halloween as it gets. In addition to the ones you have listed there is also Trick or Treat with Huey, Dewey, and Louie that is great Halloween fun. I usually skip to Night on Bald Mountain from Fantasia also. If you like the Skeleton Dance you will love Mickey in the Haunted HouseWhat to Watch on HalloweenSep 20, 2014View
1290ArticleNLoganLady in White has a nice spooky Halloween feel to it. Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein is the perfect mix of fun, laughs, and scares for all ages.What to Watch on HalloweenSep 20, 2014View
