Optimus Prime's Battles in the Unicron Trilogy

Image
There were three times Optimus Prime DID NOT PERISH completely (but he did temporarily die in Armada perhaps as a reference to the movie) but he came back to kick Galvatron's ass.  I can say all these battles are interesting as the Unicron Trilogy Megatron/Galvatron is not the utterly insane one but a rather, scheming and calculating villain.  This is the battle in Transfomers Armada right inside Unicron. An MV without character vocals but enjoy...  Did it take too long to finally end the emperor of destruction?  Regardless it's an awesome battle as it should have been!

A Game I Wasted So MUCH Quarters On

Image
I got to admit if there was any arcade game I wasted a lot of quarters on during the 90s it was "Captain America and the Avengers" which I would play at the malls for HOURS.  Yeah, my parents had every right to get mad at me for wasting my time on this otherwise ridiculously hard game.  What can I say?  The controls aren't very good, when your lifebar ends, you've got to continue and there are no extra lives.  If it had a save feature, it would have done good but those were the early games.  The whole game featured Captain America, Iron Man, Vision and Hawkeye as they battle the Red Skull who's got an army of mind-controlled villains.  I got to admit the concept was great, storyline was good but gameplay was horrible.  To be honest, if a copy of this game were available with INFINITE continues for the home system, I would buy it otherwise I'd really deposit it in the old shame closet for good.  Wasted so MUCH money on it!

My View on Hate Fics Against Power Rangers

Image
Okay I got to admit that first and foremost, I don't like Power Rangers (most of them) but one has to admit that hate fic writing is crazy.  I've written some of them already in the past BUT well it's just not fair to write a hate fic.  I used to think it was right until I got overly (but rightfully) criticized for writing "Operation Suicide" where I totally murdered the Operation Overdrive Rangers MERCILESSLY and made them idiots all for the sake of getting revenge on what was a horrible show.  I admit I don't like Kalish, I don't like how Power Rangers Samurai is going on but to villainize a group of lame heroes is what I'd refer to my vice of being hate filled, bashing and all.  But what I did was plain wrong... and sometimes the best way to deal with a hatred for a certain franchise is to ignore it entirely.  If anybody should be blamed for a franchise being lousy, BLAME THE WRITERS!  If Fantasy Leader were to talk, just leave a bad franchise alon...

Similarities Between Anakin Skywalker and Claude Frollo

Image
Actually I'd like to do a comparison of Anakin Skywalker and obviously the novel version of Claude Frollo.  So where do I start?  Here they are: Both are vowed to celibate positions.  Anakin Skywalker is a Jedi and Claude Frollo is an Archdeacon.  Both of them despite their vows to celibacy yet they have fallen for a certain woman.  In Anakin Skywalker's case, it was really love with Padme Amidala (who his five years his senior) and he did care about her.  Claude Frollo was slowly lusting after Esmeralda (who is probably 25 years or younger his junior) which is different from Anakin Skywalker's.   Both had noble intentions that ended in tragedy.  Both of them saw each other as righteous, nothing wrong with them and they are better than everyone else yet both took wrong directions.  Anakin Skywalker ended up going to the dark side and Claude Frollo did plenty of things in the novel that even the more sinister version of Claude Fro...

Frieza in Dragon Ball Z

Image
If there was any other villain in Dragon Ball Z that intrigued me it wasn't Cell who was born into the world by artificial biology or the feral Super Buu, it would be Frieza.  That's right- the name that would strike fear TOO MUCH.  So what's the big deal?  He was known to be the son of King Cold yet for some reason, this prince of evil is far more feared than his supposedly more powerful father or his older brother Cooler who sadly only appeared for a short flick only.  So what's the big deal? So he's the one to propagate the idea of survival of the fittest- the strong survive and the weak will perish.  Ah that makes him a real monster quite like Apocalypse of Marvel Comics yet his was at an even BIGGER scale.  Not much is known except he's a spoiled brat to his father and perhaps that's what turned him into a complete monster.   So what activities has he done?  He normally gets a good planet, orders his subordinates to kill its inhabitants and ...

Seriously the DUMBEST Form of Attraction EVER

Image
If girls falling for Spiderman in the 80s-90s without seeing his face wasn't dumb enough, we've got Spike falling for the Pink Samurai Ranger.  Spike falls for the pink ranger by just seeing her in battle.  LOL.  I seriously think this is just stupid.  I mean it's easier to like an ugly person seeing how ugly the are than seeing them with a mask to cover their ugly face.  Oh Spike what's wrong with you?

My Favorite Kamen Rider End Theme of All Time

Despite the fact I'm not much of a Kamen Rider fan now, but thank you Big Brother Kotaro.  Now here's the song "Somebody Loves You" translated into English: When you're spent after fighting a lonely battle And feel like sinking Close your eyes, look up Just listen closely Lonely Lonely Heart The wind will go on whispering Lonely Lonely Heart You're not alone Somebody loves you Somebody believes in you Somebody is looking for you Somewhere, somewhere When you're hurt and you fall upon your knees Don't look back, look up And when you feel sorry about your faraway dreams Just keep your eyes fixed at the path you'll take Lonely Lonely Heart Earth is a planet where love dwells Lonely Lonely Heart You're not alone Somebody loves you Somebody is searching for you Somebody is gazing at you Somewhere, somewhere Somebody loves you Somebody believes in you Somebody is looking for you Somewhere Somewhere Always Somewher...
