Anyone else remember how Funimation swapped the original JPN soundtracks with butt rock in some of the earlier Dragon Ball Z movies? Those were the days.

So I’m thinking about going to work on the writing again for the Sonic fighting game story mode soon, but I just wanted to throw out a stupid name I came up with for the machine Eggman’s using in the story that brings in characters, worlds and objects from other dimensions and time periods.

The Timeline, Otherworld And Space Teleportation Engine.

Yes folks. The TOASTE.
You know what they say

What's wrong with the MCU designs and art style?
The MCU designs themselves are fine. The problem is that the game designs feel like really cheap imitations of them. Cap looks like Not!Chris Evans dressed up in riot gear, Stark looks like a rougher version of RDJ and Banner looks like a younger Mark Ruffalo.

The issue with the artstyle is its so washed out like the Airport battle in Civil War. Even in supposedly "sunny" weather with clear skies the sky itself still looks like your average day in England, grey, dull and miserable.

Seems like Sega is in some hot water financially.
Is this really a surprise?

99%* of their budget is basically going towards the Sonic franchise with the games pretty much consistently getting mixed reception for years. It was a miracle the Sonic movie was well recieved, despite having its own controversies at first.

Oh. That wasn’t very clearly expressed originally.

Still more color than most DCEU films.

You said that once I made this video, you would watch it since it's a topic we both liked discussing. Well, here it is.

Anyone else, your views would be appreciated! Though might I recommend listening to it instead.

There are creatures that science refuses to recognize.

But if our eyes see it...

If our cameras capture it...

Does it exist?


LOST TAPES

Do you believe?

BABA YAGA



Episode Title: "Baba Yaga"
Subject matter: Baba Yaga
Summary: An environmental group is in Russia in the wilderness testing carbon pollution levels. While during one of their outings, they wind up getting lost in the process, when it seems they can't find any way back, help seemingly arrives when they come upon an old hut where an old woman lives, the only question is can they trust her?

Cue John Wick jokes
Whenever I hear Baba Yaga, my mind either goes to John Wick or to this.

So doing two coin flips tomorrow.

First one to determine watching a Disney or DreamWorks animated classic.

Second determining between The Lion King and Dinosaur or The Road to El Dorado and Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron.

I understood it perfectly
Still more color than most DCEU films.
Justice League aside, good thing they've gotten better with their movies
Aquaman. Wonder Woman. Shazam. Birds of Prey. It’s now an even 50-50. When the Wonder Woman sequel comes out it will be the majority. So stop digging the DCEU.
DCEU must have most of their movies be only good to awesome first...no more good than bad...MOSTLY GOOD
Not when they're still giving Snyder work
tbh the Snyder Cut seems hype to watch, even if it isn't canon to the DCEU

Considering how well Sonic is doing financially, I heavily doubt it. Plus, SEGA's been doing quite a lot with their other franchises lately, be it Persona, Yakuza, Sakura Wars, etc.

The real problem is how much money they make from facilities like arcade centers and how the pandemic hit them hard. That's why they are selling their arcades and stocks and not, you know, lowering the budget of the Sonic Team.

To be honest. Yeah. I’m mad about that. I hate that the Snyder cut is going to be a thing and that damn new footage is being made die it and arg! I hope he doesn’t end up ruining the good track record they’ve been building up. And I can’t wait for the cut to be a steaming pile of dog **** so people will realize they were wrong to keep asking for it over and over again.

Now, this is a crossover I'd love to see.

A crossover Elseworld story where rather than landing on earth instead Clark's pod as its sent off of Krypton in its final moments ends up on the Land of Light ruled by a powerful race known as Ultras being raised among them. Also being under the Plasma Spark, he gains the same powers as he would under a yellow sun.

When you really get down to it. Ultraman is pretty much Japan's equivalent to Superman or another way of saying it is Superman of the East, so such a crossover is fitting.

Here is another elseworld story: what if the Saiyans were in place of the Kryptonians in the DC universe?

So we'll be upgrading from cold **** to hot ****? That's an improvement in one way. :4pacman:

Been playing Dragon quest 2.

Got to the point where you visit the first games hero's hometown.

Same energy as visiting Pallet town in Pokemon gold and silver.
