2027ArticleSegaFanaticI'm wondering if anyone here has ever found every hidden hyperlink in this article; they're mostly on pictures and certain words.Christmas: Alone & Kickin' ItFeb 20, 2015View
2026ArticleVaporman87To just imagine Gary Goddard's original vision for MOTU on screen back then makes me disappointed it never happened. Maybe if Paramount, Universal, or some other big studio could have gotten the rights and budget together, it might have been a real classic.An Ode to Cannon FilmsFeb 19, 2015View
2025ArticleAnEarly90sManAh yes, the Bart Simpson hair carving. The good old days. Remember when people had this: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Return_of_Superfly_(soundtrack)#/media/File:The_Return_of_Superfly.jpg Those magazine ads are definitely from an early 90s magazine. You can see the mid 90s coming in (Pop Qwiz popcorn, anyone), but there's still a HW Bush era atmosphere (Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers) to them. Those Simpsons Illustrated issues had to be from the fall of 1991 into the spring of 1992 when we were getting a lot closer to 1993. Thank you for writing this article, Holu.

2024ArticleHoju KoolanderCannon Films are so important to 80's cinema...and video stores. What would have been playing on cable and Sunday afternoon TV with out the violence filled schlock they pushed out on a regular basis? Of course Masters of The Universe is their most special release to me. Yes, they disregarded everything about the cartoon that made us love it, but it's such a fun fantasy/sci-fi hybrid and inter-dimensional dwarves stealing fried chicken makes me happy. From what I understand Cyborg was created from sets, costumes and script elements planned for the MOTU sequel that never happened. Oh and the Spider-Man movie! I get such a kick out of all the promo materials and costumes they designed for it. It would have been just one step above the 70's live action TV show, but that film would have defined my childhood for sure. Fantastic article!An Ode to Cannon FilmsFeb 18, 2015View
2023ArticleVaporman87Ahhh. Golan and Globus. Favorite targets of MST3K. Great article jkatz. The story of Golan and Globus is SO much like that of John DeLorean that you might think they were related somehow. Big dreams, taking it all the way to the big time, then dying off before the dreams were fully realized. They had some good films, Cobra and MOTU being two of them (even though MOTU could have been SO much better with a bigger budget). But man, they really loved pumping out crap. Crap that we love today for taking itself so seriously, but just plain crap back then. Sell the renter on the VHS cover (<a href="http://www.retro-daze.org/site/article/id/275">as you've mentioned before</a>) and then hope you make the budget back without too much word of mouth crashing your chances. Without the internet, discussing some crappy movie you watched was far less likely to happen. My favorite MST3K Golan and Globus disaster? Alien in LA with Kathy Ireland.

2022Articleechidna64Excellent idea for an article! Thank you for some interesting tidbits of film history! Orion films would also be worthy of consideration! An Ode to Cannon FilmsFeb 18, 2015View
2021ArticleHoju Koolander@comic_book_fan Yeah, it takes kids a while to understand the power of our words. For a short time I was jokingly telling people "I'll kill your family", then my buddy started saying it and almost got pummeled by a big guy who didn't get the joke. So "kill" was quickly dropped from our comedic repertoire. @AnEarly90sMan Glad you could relate, dude. Maybe you can share some of your memories with us in an article soon. After writing about it I showed some ProStars to my sports-obsessed son and he loved it. @vkimo Quite the metaphor there, you scholar you.SleepoversFeb 18, 2015View
2020Articleshakin steakUgh, I had these magazines. But I have no idea what happened to them. Thanks for the blast from the past!Simpsons Illustrated and 90's Magazine AdsFeb 18, 2015View
2019Articlecomic_book_fanlol i can relate alot i remember one night me and my friend was arguing with this guy about who would win between wolverine and megaman so that night we called him and left a messade saying how bad wolverine would kill megaman but since there were 2 of us talking at the same time all you could make out on the machine was kill and behead and his parents checked the machine and thought we were threatening his life when we were just acting stupid about fictional characters. so they threatened legal action so me and my friend had to apologize to him and his parents my friend got the worse he had to write out cards for them i just had to say sorry and explain what happened. and me and my friends had a big cabin in my back yard where we kept our playboys. i will write an article about some of mine.SleepoversFeb 18, 2015View
2018ArticleVaporman87My guess is that with a little less "preaching" the gospel of protecting the environment, Captain Planet could have been something bigger... and might have had increased longevity. The writers tended to focus too much on the lesson, and not enough on developing the show into something entertaining.Overrated shows from my childhoodFeb 18, 2015View
