    Manga Pulse 557: River of Shame

    Two is better than one, at least when it comes to coatings. You need a nice solid clear coat to protect your paint. And to keep that nice and safe, you should apply a nice sacrificial coating like wax. Our manga reviews are like that wax, our sacrifice for your entertainment. Going so far as to take on manga that’s requested as well. First up is Tim with a request in Red River. It’s a nineties manga and is it a blast from the past. It’s about a Japanese high school girl with shojo legs who ends up in the past around the Hittite empire around the same time as … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 557: River of Shame"

    Episode 945: Apocalypse Cinderella

Up first IRL news with Andrew slam jamming his opponents in Street Fighter as Ken, and Joseph slogged his way through Lust Planet to play a better game about killing aliens. Then in the industry news a bell rung for peace is silenced for peaceful reasons, and apparently isekai is bad for the industry.

    Popcorn Pulse 263: Last Station

    Let’s start off with a joke. What comes after sunset? Knight time! What better way to segue into the movie we have. It’s all about knights but not the last one. Also it’s a tale about a knight but not a knight’s tale. It’s about the last ones, the Last Knights[2015], if you will. There was no more after this. They were all clearanced out and we moved on to things like surfers. So Clive Owen is a knight and he serves Morgan Freeman. They’re both under an Emperor and there’s an evil finance man who hates them. Freeman says something mean to the Emperor and gets executed. Then Financier … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 263: Last Station"

    Popcorn Pulse 262: Silence of War

    The impossible has finally come to pass. Star Citizen has been release in full, fully realized. It’s sweeping awards in every category and Netflix has already paid the studio one billion dollars to adapt it to streaming. Or maybe Chuck Norris has passed and rather suddenly. Which at least prompted a resurgence of old internet memes. To that effect though, we have Code of Silence(1985). Chuck Norris is a cop and he does cop things. This means doing raids and beating up nameless henchmen. A rich girl gets kidnapped by a cartel in response to the successful raids, there’s a cover up by a cop that shot someone, and also … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 262: Silence of War"

Up first Andrew returns from his minor break to indulge us with his stories from the trip, and Joseph got a sinus infection and actually had to take a sick day off of work. Then we give a pass to industry news, because previews tend to run the show a little too long, but the community is still here with some Ayy LAMO. Lastly we're into a new season with new anime as Joseph east monsters, becomes a great sage, and is totally not banging his ninja-like companion. Andrew meanwhile becomes a North Star rooster who uses petals to reincarnate.

    Script 2 Script 37: Animorphs

    Does anything take you back to the good old days more than a Scholastic Bookfair? Not Tim because his parents didn’t authorize the spend for such things. There were plenty of books in the library for practically free. Kids who’s parents wanted to encourage reading though might remember the covers of Animorphs. You know, those hilariously bad transformations of some random kid turning into a boring animal. Well it was also a show! So this one is going to be a bit different as we didn’t both watch the show or read the books. Vanessa did though and she’s going to try and sell Tim on the experience. Listen to … Continue reading "Script 2 Script 37: Animorphs"

    Manga Pulse 555: Hooligan’s Abyss

    This must be the fake movie phone episode. What with the five five five starting us off. Does Hollywood even bother with that anymore? If not, it’s now ours. And we’ll make loads of disgusting lucre, we’re talking hundreds of yen per year, to license it out. Why we’ll be able to retire or at least die. Either way we have some manga reviews. Tim starts us off with Hooligan’s. This has nothing to do with either ne’er do wells nor with unruly soccer fans. It’s about alchemy in a vague Victorian-esque era. That’s also three hundred years after the discovery of alchemy. There’s a group of supreme alchemists who … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 555: Hooligan’s Abyss"

    Popcorn Pulse 261: Fuzzy Wuzzy’s Outfit

    Look, we really like going back through film catalogs of famous actors. But if death could just slow it the heck down for a bit. Maybe go collect some mosquitoes instead. Because there are only so many losses we can take and the Academy’s “in memoriam” isn’t going to get them all at this rate. So we just said goodbye to Robert Duvall and decided to do something that was around but was not the Godfather. We have The Outfit(1973), a movie based on a novel. Which Tim has a few interesting, he swears, tidbits about the author and character. Duvall is getting out of jail after he and his … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 261: Fuzzy Wuzzy’s Outfit"

Make sure you know your region designation, your local chapter captain, and the report number you’re to call if you spot anything.

    Popcorn Pulse 260: Superbunny

    How may reviews for Superman movies does the world need? It needs ours and that’s about it. Everyone else can go back to Krypton. Yes, we sat down and finally watched James Gunn’s Superman[2025]. We figured we didn’t want to place it in the list of movies we’d watch when we get around to a theme episode sometime. If you’ve existed in Western pop culture, you know the basics. Alien from Krypton, many many powers, raised in Kansas, and fights villains. Some differences here are that Papa Kent is alive and both the Kents are lobotomized boomers who can’t operate a phone. Louis Lane is obnoxious, maybe that’s closer to … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 260: Superbunny"

    Manga Pulse 553: Handyman Magic

    Have you taken your vitamin C lately? Health advice? No, we’re asking if you’ve taken a double dose of manga reviews. You might think that would be vitamin M or maybe R. We say C because it’s short for charm which our reviews are never short of. Of course we’ll probably forget this the next time a description needs be made but that’s all part of our vitamin C. Up first is Tim with The Regressed Sword Saint’s Magic Theory. There’s a magic world where our dude is the titular Sword Saint. A man so skilled he basically defeats anyone at anytime.

    Popcorn Pulse 259: Tron Drags

    You know what people really love? No, not millions of dollars in unmarked bills delivered to their front door. It’s sequels after years of waiting. Which is why the movie Tron: Legacy was the most beloved of all. So how do you follow up with that? Wait over fifteen years and deliver another sequel. So we get Tron: Ares[2025]. Tron: Ares asks the bold question, did anybody watch or remember Tron: Legacy? It stars Evan Peters as the grandson of Dillinger and he created Ares, played by Jared Leto. Baby Dillinger is trying to sell weapons and soldiers brought into the real world via lasers. Meanwhile Greta Lee is CEO … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 259: Tron Drags"

    VG Pulse 429: Extra Crispy

    MX17 – Sorry for the lateness in the posting of this show and also the quality of said show.

    Manga Pulse 552: PTSWorld

    Where do we get those wonderful toys? At the wonderful toy store, of course. It’s something like the FAO Schwarz toy store but it has electronics. Like Virtual Boys that are done in green so it doesn’t fry your retinas. Then you end up trading apartments with Jerry Seinfeld while addicted to Kenny Rogers chicken. There. Is that enough somewhat discordant chains of logic to fill the beginning of this now? Off to the manga. Tim has Break New World. It’s dystopian and you can tell that because everyone has to wear chokers. They all have a social credit system from A through E. People who suck enough to be … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 552: PTSWorld"

    Popcorn Pulse 258: Killer Heat

    It’s not October but we’re missing Fall. This half-assed winter can go get bent over a barrel of lube behind the local Denny’s. Bring back the cool, crunchy leaf weather darn it!

    Manga Pulse 551: Imaginary Tattoo

    Doesn’t it feel like we’ve all been here before? Have we gotten stuck on the old treadmill of time? Perhaps it’s a leak from the hourglass of the canceled Prince of Persia game. As such we’re stuck reliving not a particular moment or day, but a few years. Or maybe it’s just that history rhymes. Either way, we do have a revist within the manga. Up again is Tim with more Taboo Tattoo. We’re still with Seigi who has magical void powers that are triggered by Blood. We also meet the princess of tattoland who is not a gothic porn star from the two thousands. The pace continues moving too … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 551: Imaginary Tattoo"

    Popcorn Pulse 256: Tokyo Danger

    Isn’t it kind of weird how Archer was a huge cultural thing for a minute? Then a group of extremists called themselves ISIS and the whole show started the flush into irrelevance. But at the very least we got a few good memes out of it. So in that spirit, we’d like to do a movie in reference to the Kenny Loggins obsession Archer had. To that end we have Danger Zone(1996). Billy Zane and Robert Downey Jr are dudes in Africa. Downey is running “toxic waste” on behalf of an evil corporation because this is the nineties.

    Manga Pulse 549: Red Cuck

    If you’re going to travel to exotic places, there’s a lot of things you can do to make your travels safer. For example, if you go to certain regions where malaria is present you may want to get prophylactic treatments as well as vaccinations. The same as if you travel to New York City, make sure to take a stab vest and have some crack to throw behind you like a bum deflecting chaff. Enough helpful stuff, onto the manga. Tim’s up first with Dogsred. It’s a sports manga about hockey. That’s not spoiling anything you can’t glean from the cover. It begins with Rou Shirakawa winning a figure skating … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 549: Red Cuck"

    Popcorn Pulse 255: Podcheck

    You know why we do this? Because of all the dollar bills. That’s right, we do it for the Paycheck[2003]. What do you mean you don’t recall the John Woo film from that era outside of Mission Impossible 2? Did the performance of Ben Affleck, Uma Thurman, or Aaron Eckart not sear itself into your mind? Well listen to us dredge this corpse up and put it on the dissection table. This is the era of Hollywood milking the estate of Phillip K Dick. Ben Affleck is the protagonist who does engineering jobs where he has his memories cooked after completion. That way he can’t sell the tech he develops … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 255: Podcheck"

    Manga Pulse 548: Rooster Game

    We think we’re onto some real good panel ideas. We’ve been thinking that we should do a nice maple veneer over plywood. Perhaps a nice natural hard wax to really bring out the grain and give a comfy cabin feel. Perhaps some rough hewn pine to bracket the windows would compliment it nicely. Of course for convention panel ideas, we’re still putting those together. At the very least we have manga to keep things on course. First up is Tim with Trillion Game. We begin at the end of the story, with Hark and Gaku having reached the coveted spot of trillionaires. This causes Gaku to start reflecting on how … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 548: Rooster Game"

    Popcorn Pulse 254: Shadow War

    It seems like it’s time once more to grab some Japanese film. Especially after the passing of Tatsuya Nakadai. This gives us an excuse to go grab one of his films. So let’s grab the three hour Akira Kurosawa film, Kagemusha: The Shadow Warrior(1980). Set before the unification of Japan, we have Tatsuya playing Shingen Takeda and his perfect double. Shingen’s regular body double found a criminal that looks like Shingen’s twin.
