| 1068 | Article | Vaporman87 | I would like to hear some of these songs "remixed" with updated beats and sounds. Some of the overall sound would really play well even today. I think it's great that Jem is getting a movie (finally) and although some today may wonder who the heck she is, Jem is something that could appeal to a large group of people of all ages. | May 01, 2014 |  | |
| 1069 | Article | Vaporman87 | I too greatly enjoyed Garfield and Friends, though when I watched it it was airing on network television. I was not aware that U.S. Acres was a comic strip by Davis that inspired the second half of each show. Thanks for that info. I never watched much of Rugrats or Hey Arnold!, so I can't really comment on them. I do know that their popularity (especially Rugrats) was readily apparent, even if you never watched a single episode. They were everywhere at one time. Lots of commercialization. I think my favorite SpongeBob episode is the one where SpongeBob meets Mermaidman and Barnacle Boy. You have to love Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway! My daughter was a big Blues Clues fan when she was around three years old. She hasn't seen an episode of it for a few years now, but I feel a bit nostalgic for it, only because of the enjoyment we got out of it together. Thanks for this article (and exclusive addition) skibeast! | Nickelodeon I used to remember | May 01, 2014 | |
| 1070 | Article | Vaporman87 | I have never even heard of Wishbone, so naturally I'm going to go with Reading Rainbow here. I probably was watching the show from it's earliest stages until the end of the 80's, and then it was usually just "off and on" watching when nothing else was on. I did find it somewhat enjoyable even though I was not what you would call a "reader" unless it was a comic or magazine. Even so, I liked Levar Burton and thought he did an amazing job on the show. Just a great program that can reach even those kids with little interest in reading books. | 90's Vs: Wishbone vs Reading Rainbow | May 01, 2014 | |
| 1076 | Article | Vaporman87 | Also, when ideas seem slim for 90's Vs, I wouldn't mind reading an 80's vs. ;) | 90's Vs: Wishbone vs Reading Rainbow | May 01, 2014 | |
| 1080 | Article | Vaporman87 | I was indeed a fan of Bob's. He was a great actor and by all accounts a decent fellow. These passings are a sober reminder that, though we may live separate lives in completely different cultures, we all share the same fate... even those "larger than life" stars. He will be greatly missed. | Farewell Bob Hoskins | May 06, 2014 | |
| 1088 | Article | Vaporman87 | This film was all I ever knew of The Hobbit for decades. I knew of no book. Just this movie. And it always left a big impression on me. The style and animation was so well done, beyond what Rankin/Bass had done in the past. The voice acting, especially for Gandalf, was just superb. For me, that voice will always be Gandalf's. Not that of old man Magneto. And the music... it was haunting. I'll never forget the sound of some of those songs for as long as I live. | Doctor Ryan Presents: The Hobbit (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 1091 | Article | Vaporman87 | I must say I was unaware this film existed. I only knew of the Marlon Brando version. Even so, it was never a subject that much interested me. I think, in theory, it should make for a really great film. But to me I have yet to see the potential of it truly realized... and it seems that holds true here as well if I take your word for it. | The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 1093 | Article | Vaporman87 | I love this little article. It warms the heart. Though I did not grow up poor, I was still not exactly a popular kid. I too found that my toys and imagination allowed me to explore situations in life in a way that could uplift me and keep me going. I genuinely feel sad for those among us who cannot (and in some cases have never been capable of) using their imagination to create, inspire, and entertain. I often used my artistic ability to bring a smile to the face of a friend or family member. There was nothing more satisfying than that. And the culture of toys, shows, and movies of my youth motivated and inspired me to not ever stop using that imagination , and to find the good in bad situations. Well said Doc. | What Pop Culture Means to Me | May 21, 2014 | |
| 1095 | Article | Vaporman87 | Yeah. Something is definitely wrong there. Perhaps you should break out a MOTU DVD or catch I Dream of Jeanie on TV Land. LOL | What Pop Culture Means to Me | May 21, 2014 | |
| 1097 | Article | Vaporman87 | Great article! I would think that to have your birthday in the depths of Summer must be a grand occasion. You can have your choice of locale (inside or outside... if it's not TOO hot), the days are long, and nobody is suffering seasonal depression. Although I did not feel like The Lost World was a terrible sequel, I wasn't blown away by it either. However, it is very easy to understand why films take on a whole new level of importance and status in the days of our youth. I'm sure there are many films from the 80's that most people would deem "awful" but were so fantastic to me, and likely still are, simply because they affected me in my youth. And you can't fault anyone for that. Thanks kstrom! | A Lost World Birthday | May 23, 2014 | |
