  1. I bought Stardew Valley today. Any fans here? I'll take all the pointers I can get. :)

      It's similar to Harvest Moon, isn't it? I've been wanting to play it for awhile now.

  2. Steve Ditko, Spider-Man Co-Creator and Legendary Comics Artist, Dies at 90 https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/steve-ditko-dead-spider-man-creator-was-90-1125489 oh no. RIP   ONE OF A KIND.

      He was the original, and my personal favorite Spidey artist. RIP.

  3. That moment when you're binge-watching the first two seasons of "Thomas the Tank Engine," and you realize you're watching a show aimed at you children. And yet, I still can't stop watching it, 'cause it's so good. At least the first two seasons.

      Though of course this is all just my opinion, as I know a lot of people that enjoy every Thomas episode ever made, and I don't really see why they can't enjoy them, as the newer episodes aren't bad by any means.

      ...the first few seasons. And of course the combination of animatronics and stop-motion beats the modern CGI episodes any day (not that there's anything wrong with CGI of course).

      Haha. I remember that Thomas theme song. I was actually lucky (being born in 1997) to actually have some VHS tapes of episodes from the first two seasons (which were from the eighties), as well as renting episodes from the first two seasons from the library. Although I saw the newer episodes on TV all the time as a kid, I don't remember the plots of them at all, because they just weren't as good. No one beats Ringo Starr as the narrator, and nothing beats the original theme song from...

      "aimed at YOUNG children" I meant. Autocorrect really screws me up sometimes.

  7. Not related to games, but I thought that some of the Willy Wonka fans on here might want to see the commentary of the Gene Wilder film that my brother and I did recently. We couldn't actually show the entire movie because of copyrignt, so you have to play your own copy simultaneously, and the video provides clips every ten minutes or so to make sure you are synced up correctly.

    1. atarifan95

      atarifan95

      Just a little warning; Although this is intended to be a positive review of the film, my brother and I do not regard this film as sacred, and therefore make quite a few jokes about some of the little things that we didn't like about it. So if you consider this to be an absolutely perfect film with no flaws whatsoever, this is not the video for you. There is also a bit of profanity (though nothing too bad). Most viewers should be okay. PG review.

      I like how you can actually kill Gollum in the game. There goes the plot of LOTR. Haha.

      I would, but I don't have that movie. I still have yet to see it. (Though I did score big with a huge box of over two hundred movies from a yard sale, among which were the 2003 Peter Pan movie, Stand By Me, and the Home Alone movies.

      It went pretty well until I realized I was carrying too many items. Since stopping the stream I figured it out, only to return to the Hobbit hole to find out "the hall is too full for you to enter." I have no idea how to fix that problem, so I'm so close to putting the treasure in the chest and ending the game, and yet I can't. Really funny game.

  11. So, something funny happened yesterday. You see, I always wondered how it would feel purchasing an R-rated movie. I've been old enough to purchase them for a few years now, but I never have, and I always wondered if it would feel strange to a young guy purchasing a movie rated R. So, yesterday, me and a bunch of other people at my college went to Walmart, and I noticed the extended versions of all three Hobbit moves sitting on a shelf in the DVD section, each costing about twenty dollars....

    1. atarifan95

      atarifan95

      ... Now normally, the extended versions cost much much more, so I couldn't pass up this opportunity, and I purchased them. When I got back to my dorm, I remembered something I had completely forgotten about; the extended version of the third film is rated R. So, I ended up purchasing my first R-rated movie without even realizing it. I had a good laugh about it for the rest of the day.

  12. One of my kids just said he learned to swear from AVGN! Ha ha ha!

      atarifan95

      (continued) heard before. That's how learned how to be careful what we did online.

       

      Years later, when I was in high school, I discovered AVGN (I didn't know at the time that it was where that song came from), and got a lot of laughs from watching his videos. Then one day, I watched his Spider-Man review, and that song came on at the end, and I was like, "Holy cow! This is that song!" That was a pretty funny moment.

      Heh heh. Reminds me of my family's first experience with AVGN. Back when my brother and I were first being introduced to the Internet as pre-teens, my brother looked up Spider-Man on YouTube, and was watching a bunch of random videos that popped up from the search. Eventually, he ended up clicking on the AVGN Spider-Man theme song parody, and Mom walked into the room right as it began to play. She was very upset about it, because there were some words in it that my brother and I had never...

      I remember her voice from the animated version of "Charlotte's Web" (which I haven't watched since the live-action version came out, but I remember really enjoying it as a kid).

  16. You know you're in the Christmas spirit when you're watching different adaptations of "Scrooge" throughout the week. Yesterday, the George C. Scott version. Today, the Jim Carrey version. I'm all excited.

      I've seen it. It's a little too rushed for my tastes, though it is a good way to introduce th story to children.

      I will watch the Muppets version this year. Despite the target audience, it tells the story wonderfully. "We're Marley and Marley! Ohhhh!"

      I don't know. It apparently came through the phone line it was connected to. I don't think we have any surge suppressors.

      Where was this flood? I've been hearing about it, but haven't heard where it was.

       

      I thought I was pretty bad off over here in Michigan (we had tornadoes for awhile), but once I heard about this flood, I changed my mind and decided that the tornadoes weren't too bad (they didn't last very long).

    1. atarifan95

      atarifan95

      Ever thought about getting Spider-Man for the Dreamcast? I really like that game, which you can also find for the PC, PS1, and N64. I don't know if the Dreamcast version has the weird glitches that the PC version has though, so you might want to look into that. I've never played Dreamcast, so I don't know much about it.
