The lost Bouvier sister, Sharge.

When I look back on the Sega Genesis timeline, it always takes a second to register that the Sega CD was released a month before Sonic 2. Retrospect makes that game out to be the peak of Sega’s success in consoles and the Sega CD to be the beginning of the fall.

Show accurate.

The Garfield and Friends review is now up, here to brighten up your Monday. www.youtube.com/watch?v=38KT...

The upcoming video happens to be exactly 42 minutes long and, for most of the world, will go live on the 25th anniversary of Douglas Adams’ passing. This was not intentional. I had a lot I wanted to talk about and thought it right to put it up on the first Monday after I’d finished it.

Of all the dates on the Gregorian calendar for Jim Davis to redesign Garfield’s feet.

Everything I’ve heard about the Animal Farm movie makes it sound not only bad, but legitimately dangerous. As if it were made to perpetuate the notion that film is a stupider storytelling medium than literature. That’s not an objective notion and filmmakers have spent 100+ years contesting it.

I’m really happy with Frinkiac’s new updates. Not just the upscaled rips and the season toggle, which I’ve always wanted, but all the other little bells and whistles that can make for more dynamic Simpsing.

I like this episode and this scene, but do us all a favour and never let the larger social media sphere get their hands on it. They’ll completely ignore its message and post it all the time just for clout like that one Brian Griffin clip.

The accepted definition of “revisionism” used to be editing historic documents to manipulate the truth or push an agenda. Now it’s some rando online saying “Home on the Range is a masterpiece”. Words can be powerful. We need to make sure they stay powerful.

My argument is as invalid as my handle.

If you think your life isn’t going the way you wanted, at least you’re not Jak in a Jak & Daxter Any% speedrun.

I spent my Easter morning at The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Not horrible, but not good. Might make a video about it, but my chief complaints are the references were integrated strangely and it’s just too fast and too disorienting most of the time.

I’ve been watching Garfield and Friends and thinking hard about it. Maybe too hard, but you be the judge. youtu.be/YIYFQgkr1SE?...

I want to see a version of the movie Lucy where instead of her IQ multiplying by 10, it divides by 10 over the course of the movie.

U.S. Acres has much deeper lore than people realise. Clip semi-related.

Yesterday’s video was my first go at A|B testing. I won’t do it with the titles since they’re so important to describing the video, but for the thumbnails, I’ll see if they do better bordered or borderless. I wonder if the series review number in the corner has become daunting for channel newcomers.

If you find a full uninterrupted look at a series to be easier viewing, here’s all my recent Land Before Time videos crammed together into a 2 hour 17 minute video. One of the longest I’ve ever made. youtu.be/9UC9mYoB70s?...

Final part of The Land Before Time retrospective is now up! Watch it while it’s hot and the ads are still pending! youtu.be/IbY1EbtOn1M?...

Too much?

When The Amazing Digital Circus ends, I’ll likely do a ranking video of all the episodes. Episode 8 was delightful, but I’m not sure if it’s as good as or better than what led up to it. I’ll think about it.

What did you do today? I made this.

Yoshi’s looking for Earl like ToeJam.

Editing work on the final part of the Land Before Time retrospective kicked off today. I would’ve started sooner, but it’s hard for me to get motivated over the later instalments. I feel like an actor. “What’s my motivation? ‘Big Daddy’?”

Serious post. In the chance WWIII breaks out and New Zealand is dragged into it, I refuse to join the military. Wars are little more than human experiments in the eyes of all world leaders. But I’ll help my local community on the home front every hour of every day.

Plot twist: They didn’t specify dollars and are paying Warner Bros. in 110,000,000,000 IOUs.

Part 2 of my journey through The Land Before Time is now up. V-X are covered in this video, so minor spoilers for those ones. youtu.be/L7L9XF5Dqf4?...

I couldn’t think of a dumber title.

My two cents on the Amazing Digital Circus drama. 1¢: This sort of fan entitlement has been “typical” on for a loong time. Read any sci-fi fanzine from the 70s and 80s. People shouldn’t get too attached to their objects of interest to the point of lashing out at the people in charge of it. (cont)

I don’t remember the plots in Mr. Bean being this complex, but then again, I haven’t seen it in years.

One problem I’ve always had with Bluesky and its algorithm is how similar it thinks we all are in our interests. The noted trending topics are always sports and politics (once in a while some celebrity drama I don’t have a darn about), no matter what you’ve stated your interests are.

Part 1 of my Land Before Time retrospective is finally up. 4 down, 10 to go. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_Ih...

Second hand store toy boxes are strange. You never know which toys belonged to which kids, so how weird the crossovers were is up to your own judgement.

You know that kid at the start of Jurassic Park who snarked on raptors? He voiced a dinosaur in a Land Before Time sequel who has to confront those very same “6 foot turkeys”. This is better karma than Grant threatening him, and that’s already powerful karma.

I’ve decided to split the Land Before Time reviews up into 3 videos. That way, you’ll get more frequent material. Then I’ll later compile them all into a mega review like I did with Toy Story. I to IV will go up next week, hopefully.

24,000 words. I expressed my opinions on children’s dinosaur movies in 24,000 words.

Sorry this upload is 2 hours late. I had a damn good movie I needed to watch. #TheIncredibles #NationalFilmRegistry

Calling it now, we’re going to learn later the Mario Galaxy movie was going to have the Ice Flower, but Illumination is cutting the scene(s) with it because of ICE being more bloodthirsty than usual this year.

Some things never change. Some things never need to change.

Bessy from Barnyard being an ally Exhibit B

I sometimes remember this electronics store in New Zealand called Dick Smth. And how when they rebranded to get rid of the head in the logo, which we affectionately called “the Dick head”, business gradually fell off and it closed.

Some of the most underappreciated work of Guy Moon is on this funky little Tiny Toon Adventures album. This was long before his career-defining work on The Fairly OddParents, but it was always obvious he was talented, and put his all into any music no matter what. Rest in peace.

I made this music tribute to classic era Doctor Who a while back, but never uploaded it because of obvious copyright problems. I’ll post it here and see what happens. #DoctorWho
