I liked the No Mercy post too. I thought this observation was especially good:
How do you accurately portray a scripted dramatization of a real fight? At its core, a wrestling game has to somehow be an authentic reproduction of a fake reproduction of something real.
Looking back, as much as I loved No Mercy, Smackdown vs. Raw 2006 for PS2 is probably my favorite wrestling game ever.
I have a friend who is introducing me to wrestling (starting with the creation of the N.W.O.). Now whenever I tell friends and family that I am getting into wrestling and people will tell me:
"You know its all fake."
I may use the Cubs player suddenly revealing himself to be playing for the Red Sox analogy to explain why I am now a fan.

I like how DW has not limited himself to console games.

Rickman died at the same age as Bowie!?

Jupiter Ascending - Watched it for Tranquil Tirades.

One great thing about the Wiki is that it is a preview about the thoughts of the upcoming podcast.
I am glad to know, from the entry on Titus, that I was not the only person that saw the spaceships from Jupiter Ascending to look like flying Cathedrals.

So many posts on my Facebook feed are from people excited about the powerball jackpot. The way people seem to give their undivided attention to easy money dangled in front of them makes me nervous.

Wayne Alexander owns it.

What's your opinion of the Babylon 5 episode "Comes the Inquisitor?"
-
The funny thing is, there are multiple episodes coming up (including Monday's) that have much more overt content.
I remember a similar thing happened with the first season of Gravity Falls, at least with my local cable provider. Tyler Cutebiker was always cut out in favor of a disembodied voice saying.
"Get 'im, Get 'im!"
In season two and three the censorship stopped. I imagine whoever censored him must have blown a gasket when Tyler was one of the love god's groupies.

When/if you guys do The Spirit, my feedback for that is going to be a mixture of screaming, cursing and crying.
And pretty much the same reaction from me. Brad Bird got me into the character, through "The Iron Giant" and I enjoyed the comic. It was the first time I felt betrayed by a company not knowing how to adapt a story.

I loved that you guys played intro music for the introduction of the Ice Cream Bunny. I was so freaked out by his appearance that he made Speer (Super) rabbit from Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo look competent.
The music made it like you guys were introducing King Kazma.

I think the thing that made me happiest about this movie is that it was actually funny.
The humor caught me off guard but it was a most welcome change. I am glad there was not something funny immediately after a sad moment.

Dune: the battle for Arrakis (Genesis) what I imagine Clash of the Clans would have looked like from 21 years ago.
Ristar (Genesis) Wow! I knew that Don Patch was a parody of Sonic the Hedgehog but his look is lifted right off of Ristar.

OH MY GOD SO GOOD YOU GUYS
More thoughts once I've unpacked them a little.
pretty much my reaction as well.

...We briefly considered "Mommie Dearest" for Will's guest spot, but we ultimately decided on something else.
I was wishing the movie covered with Will is "A Beautiful Mind." Because he posted some compelling arguments, on the wiki, why the movie is overrated.

Castle in the Sky: I'm not going to say it's my favorite Studio Ghibli film but it's definitely up there. It's fun and beautiful. This is my first time watching it with the original score (Disney had it rescored when they originally brought it over by the original composer. Both are beautiful in their own way). So, yeah, good times.
Beauty and the Beast: Fucking beautiful in HD. In many ways, this is the high point of Disney's Second Golden age. It got the Oscar Nomination for Best Picture and it deserved it. It's just that good. The voice acting is top notch without ever feeling gimmicky, the music is never out of place, and, like I said, it's just beautiful.
I heard Miyazaki apologized for Castle in the Sky, but I cannot find any evidence to support that. i loved that movie.
I cannot watch Beauty and the Beast without crying. It is a beautiful film.

Kingsman: The Secret Service: Goddamn, that was a good fucking film.
I read the comic book and liked the twist they made to intentionally throw off the people who read it. It gave them something new rather than the same thing. Even without the misdirection it was much better than the comic book.
My introduction to Colin Firth was from the A&E production of Pride and Prejudice, I got the weirdest smug feeling when I saw Mr. Darcy in the middle of the church massacre scene.

I was going to suggest one that I actually watched as a child. Which also became one of the first videos I watched ironically.

I cannot wait until the review of the Christmas special. It is the closest thing anime fans have to a live action Yu Yu Hakusho.
It IS?!
The only other thing that I could think of that was close to YYH live action is "The Invisible" starring Justin Chatwin, months before Dragonball Evolution.
If you could think of something closer I would love to hear about it. Because everything I have come across does not come anywhere near.

I am finding myself watching some live action DBZ fan videos. I am curious as to why they seem to focus on either the Androids or the Cell saga.

After seeing the final battle with the Indominus Rex, I was ready to hear the T-rex say.

War of the Worlds: Goliath - Wonderful alternate history story. I love the animation and mixture of 2-d with 3-D CGI. The story was compelling and very fun.

It looks like Akiva Goldsmith is not writing it. That is a plus.
Episode 12: Birdemic
in Tranquil Tirades
Posted
I have heard of a sequel to "The Birds" in a direct to TV movie directed by Alan Smithee ( If I had to direct a sequel to a Hitchcock film, I would want to be anonymous as well).
I remembered enjoying a Nissan commercial from 1996 which I now see as the 90' s version of Birdemic.
