49775The Super Mario Bros Movie<p><span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I preordered the steelbook box set that&#39;s exclusive to Wal-Mart, it was a very good movie. Just another case of &quot;ignore what the critics said and see it for yourself&quot;. The voice acting imo was a bit spotty, some sound better than others.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Seth Rogen basically put no effort into making a unique voice and you can easily tell it&#39;s him lol. Chris Pratt was alright, not bad, not great, just alright. I think Jack Black stole the show though as Bowser.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I did like the bit of Nintendo references sprinkled throughout too, a Twitter post showed a bunch of references in one shot showing a picture of Glass Joe from Punch Out, an NES system in front of the Mario Bros.&#39; TV, and one of the ducks from Duck Hunt was in a painting. I hope we get more promising animated adaptations like this in the future.</span></p> BenjanimeApr 11, 2023View
49774The Super Mario Bros Movie<p>I&#39;ve heard nothing but good things. Hollywood CAN still make the occasional worthwhile animated film it seems.</p> <blockquote rel="echidna64" style="display: inline-block !important;"><strong>echidna64 wrote :</strong> <p><em>I took my daughter to see The Super Mario Bros movie and it was an absolute blast from start to finish!

49772Spring 2023<p>Lizards and newts starting coming out of hibernation last week. I saw a bunch of them on the road as I was getting ready to leave work. I saw&nbsp;a bright orange one that was really cool looking.</p> Rick Ace RhodesApr 11, 2023View

497671960 - The Swiss Family Robinson<p>&quot;The Swiss Family Robinson&quot; was on Amazon Prime last year and it really stood out to me just how well crafted that old movie is. Anyone watching just on a whim might not be prepared for Disney at its Best.</p> <p>My search results show several versions, animated and live action, and I still say it&#39;s because that 1960 movie is so good.Adding comedy to a story about survival doesn&#39;t sound wise, but Disney put just the amount - at just the right time, to send an audience over the top (in a good way).</p> <p>Irwin Allen was inspired to add a sci-fi spin when he created, &quot;Lost in Space&quot; in 1965. But television and movies are completely different animals with different financing. The complications of series television caused Lost in Space to struggle under tight budgets and tighter deadlines.The show quickly fell into 1960&#39;s cheesy &#39;n cheap production standards that even made&nbsp;me cringe as an eight year old.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e8/73/cc/e873cc482566500587cb2d6f00bafbd6.jpg" /></p> eddstarrApr 10, 2023View
49766The Future ain't Free<p>After all these years I can still hear the voices of all the people I knew back in the 1960&#39;s who kept reminding me that &quot;utopian ideas&quot; are nothing new. What&#39;s shocking are people who never learn the lessons that form basic human motivations.&nbsp;</p> <p>Born in 1921, Gene Roddenberry was schooled in the Great Depression dreams of a world were everyone held a collective value and &quot;community wealth&quot; was equally distributed. And those dreams were well known to Lucille Ball, head of Desilu Studios and another Great Depression survivor. Gene&#39;s pitch for Star Trek struck a cord with Lucy and it was her networking in the background that paved the way for Gene to sell Star Trek to the TV networks.</p> <p>I now realize that the crush of series television production, for time and money, resulted in Roddenberry throwing every idea, no matter if he knew better, into the Star Trek mix.</p> <p>Not to pick on Gene Roddenberry - science fiction has always held ideals that we should aspire to. There are many generations who dream of a better world, not unlike the Emerald City from &quot;The Wizard of Oz&quot; - 1939.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://i.pinimg.com/736x/ae/c0/c3/aec0c36531b74dbcd6772d4644647b4b--the-emerald-emerald-city.jpg" /></p> eddstarrApr 10, 2023View
