| 1572 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Loving your pen name. I once spent a lonely holiday season evening at a movie theater attending a special retro screening of Christmas Vacation. It was a 10pm show and I literally had the theater to myself. The staff kept coming in to see if there was anyone in the theater because they wanted to go home, but like Clark, I stood my ground in the name of Christmas...or I didn't have anything better to do. Take your pick. | Dec 05, 2014 |  | |
| 1573 | Article | Vaporman87 | LOL @ Hoju. I wonder it they considered cooking up some way to get you to leave, like faking a power outage or projector malfunction. | 8 Meltdowns That Actually Guided Clark Griswold To His 'Christmas Vacation' | Dec 06, 2014 | |
| 1574 | Article | pikachulover | I always joke with my mom once she starts putting cat food in her jello it's time to stop. Which is even stranger since she doesn't have any pets. | 8 Meltdowns That Actually Guided Clark Griswold To His 'Christmas Vacation' | Dec 07, 2014 | |
| 1576 | Article | OldSchool80s | A fun read (as usual) about a personal favorite. Glad to see you post over here! (My Christmas submission will hopefully be coming this week!) | 8 Meltdowns That Actually Guided Clark Griswold To His 'Christmas Vacation' | Dec 08, 2014 | |
| 1581 | Article | SockofFleagulls | @oldschool80s thanks! I've read a few of yours on here as well! | 8 Meltdowns That Actually Guided Clark Griswold To His 'Christmas Vacation' | Dec 10, 2014 | |
| 1588 | Article | Vaporman87 | It's good to see you BOTH stopping by now and then. It's nice to have places to come and share thoughts and stories together, in addition to the sites and podcasts we all maintain on our own. Thanks guys! Jason, I added a plug for your site to bottom of this article. | 8 Meltdowns That Actually Guided Clark Griswold To His 'Christmas Vacation' | Dec 10, 2014 | |

| 1578 | Article | Vaporman87 | I was in my second year of college when this game first hit home consoles. I was fairly excited about it, though MK was never a favorite of mine. But when things really turned ugly and we had government stepping in to try and censor games, I got a little more interested in not just the game, but how it was being received. There is an article by raptor that covers a little bit of that episode. I enjoyed both versions for home consoles (the SNES and Genesis). For me however, I took my anger at some magazines, namely Electronic Gaming Monthly, to a whole other level. I too was seeing some editor bias in those days, and I was going to make my thoughts heard to these people. So one of my roommates and I typed up a 7 page letter and sent it to EGM. I still have a copy of that letter. It's hilarious to read now (thinking that such a thing would matter at all in life). But I guess we all were a little passionate about stupid things in our youth. As for my favorite character, I was always a Sub Zero/Scorpion fan. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 09, 2014 | |
| 1587 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @NLogan I almost referenced the Big Trouble In Little China Raiden/Rayden, he was always featured in the Saturday afternoon commercials for local TV broadcasts of the movie. I never knew about the different spellings or the breakdown in the original Japanese. Cool! @Vaporman87 Typing letters to magazines/newspapers, the original comments section! I bet your letter was infamous around the EGM offices. Scorpion was always my favorite guy as well. I had an obsession with grappling hooks, so his weapon of choice gave him instant status with me. Speaking of which, correction in the second to last paragraph: Johnny Cage fought Scorpion, not Liu Kang. Those freakin' colorful ninjas... | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 10, 2014 | |
| 1583 | Article | NLogan | <img src="/images/postImages/14182242597457398_4_l.jpg"> Raiden was my favorite from Big Trouble in Little China. Shang Tsung was my favorite from the movie not because I liked it, But because I met the actor Carey Hiroyuki Tagawa and he was awesome and a super nice guy. As for the video game I never played it much preferring to spend my quarters elsewhere. It never came out on the original NES that I rocked until college. | Mortal Kombat Memories | Dec 10, 2014 | |
