Entertainment Industry Nostalgia: January 1993
Introduction This is the year I have been looking forward to when I first started off this journey into 90s nostalgia. Because this is the year I matured enough to know more about what was going on. The year I began to have fond memories of films and events. The year I believe the 90s … Continue reading Entertainment Industry Nostalgia: January 1993
Rocko’s Modern Life series review
I'll admit, I was kind of looking for a verbal fight when I got into a little discussion with CryptDaddy on Twitter. When he took the position of, "The Tiny Toon Adventures reboot will probably be good." All I could think was, "Yeah, sure, like the Teen Titans reboot, the Doug sequel, Powerpuff Girls sequel, … Continue reading Rocko’s Modern Life series review
Carnosaur 1 & 2 (1993, 1995) review
Carnosaur (1993) Rated: 2.5 / 5 Well, after revisiting Tammy and the T-Rex, I got the urge to revisit these two films as well. The first one faced a rushed production and low budget in order to quickly get it into theaters prior to the (much deserved) hype Jurassic Park was generating about dinosaurs and … Continue reading Carnosaur 1 & 2 (1993, 1995) review

Rated: 3 / 5 Ok, so this film grew on me after previous viewings. This is one of the few emotionally charged Godzilla films out there, though you wouldn't know it until the last quarter of the movie. And yes, the emotional factor of baby Godzilla with adult Godzilla got to me a bit on … Continue reading Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993) and Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla (1994) dual review
Secret of Mana review
Rated: 3/5 So I played the SNES version, without the SNES, because I like being able to save when I want where I want. Anyway, the game is highly regarded as a classic and as one of the greatest JRPGs of all time. When I first started playing it, I had to agree. Mainly because … Continue reading Secret of Mana review
Path to Paradise Review
"Great. Freedom of religion protects a bunch of murdering fanatics. And if these guys feel like blowing us off with a line of sermon there's not a goddamn thing we can do about it. Back home the police would be shoving barb wire up their asses. No wonder they all come here." "America. A great … Continue reading Path to Paradise Review
Jack the Bear Review
Taking a break from my 9/11 film reviews- "What? But you just got started!" "Shutup. It's my blog and I'll do what I want." I'm curious about films like these I missed out on during my childhood. 90s kid films that are genuine in their intentions and aren't comedies that use dumb slapstick humor. Pretty … Continue reading Jack the Bear Review
