Kingdom Hearts Real-Time Fandub: Do No Harm

Donald Duck lowkey IS more important than white people I think.

Wonka

Come for the trademark Paul King charm and musical numbers, stay for the heist plot and Souls-like worldbuilding???????

Kirby Air Riders (Road Trip Campaign)

I liked the original Kirby Air Ride, but with the way this game knocked my socks off, I can't imagine how over the moon true Air Ride fans are right now. A truly miraculous sequel, by all accounts.

EarthBound

A wonderful, silly and deeply beautiful experience that I'm glad to have finally played. Sure, I had my moments where I was annoyed or fed up. But despite that, I don't think I'd change a single thing about this game. There's truly nothing else quite like EarthBound.

Wayne's World 2

These guys are like the chaotic evil versions of Bill & Ted. They are not leaving Samsara for sure.

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

More of the same, it's fine. That being said this cameo really surprised us.

Chainsaw Man (Season 1)

Still personally prefer the manga but this is as good as it gets when it comes to adaptation. Fantastic animation and performances translate and transform the panels beautifully. Plus the biblical level of greed in the EDs is always appreciated.

The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

idk why this one is regarded so poorly it's pretty fun so far-- THEY WHITEWASHED HER??????????

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (replay)

I think this is my favorite of the trilogy. A far different story and more linear structure than the usual Metroid, but it still reins things in by having that classic action/cosmic horror balance. Just expand more on this for Prime 4 and we're golden.

Hoodwinked (rewatch)

Many people have said it but yeah this would not be as endearing as it is if the animation was actually good.

Ocean Waves

long ass 70 minutes jfc.
Yeaaah this was Not my vibe today. I'm all for lower stakes slice-of-life movies but this was just kinda meandering with no real standout moments or characters. Lovely art, but no shit, it's a 2D Ghibli joint.

Ocean's Thirteen

Damn why did nobody ever tell me this trilogy is solid throughout AND fun as fuck, I woulda hopped on sooner!

Jumping Flash! (replay)

Video games never needed to look better than this they just needed to run a little better than this. God what a fun, breezy little game. Miss this series something fierce.

House

In awe of the creativity and directorial guts poured into every single frame of this thing. There is no other movie I've seen that looks or moves like "House" and that rocks.

Movie itself is fine, good campy fun. But the viscerally fun "anything goes" direction really elevates it.

The Babadook

Less scary and more dour and depressing. As someone who was an autistic child this felt belittling and borderline hurtful to sit through for various reasons. Bad enough to be unsubtle but to fuck it up this bad? Not what I needed with my mood these past few weeks but whatever, we move.

Super Mario Land (replay)

Done with RetroAchievements. Cute little game, idk why I considered it so lowly before when it's just kind of a breezy time a la Kirby's Dream Land.

Whoever made the achievement to not get a single coin in World 1 is fucked up though.

Sonic and the Black Knight (replay)

An underrated gem where the real star isn't the fun, speedy sword-slashing gameplay, but the well-crafted and surprisingly heartfelt story. Always a good time revisiting this one.

Anyway here's an AMV snippet from a video I never finished.

Luigi's Mansion (replay)

I think I've played this game at least 12 times in my life what the hell do you want me to say at this point.

Kirby's Dream Land (replay)

Ran this again to test out RetroAchievements. Beat it in 30 minutes as usual. Good, small vibes game.

Willy's Wonderland (rewatch)

As far as I'm concerned this is the REAL FNAF movie.
October 25, 2025 at 9:20 PM
The Lost Boys

A relentlessly fun, campy vampire flick. Grandpa is goated.
October 25, 2025 at 8:20 PM
Once Upon A Katamari

I may be a little biased, as this comes in a very rough time in my life. But this was the exact pick-me-up I needed. It's good to have such a quirky, fun series back on its A-Game. Maybe a little derivative of past entries here and there, but I sincerely enjoyed my time.

10 Cloverfield Lane

Yeah I know I'm probably preaching to the choir here but this feels like two movies stitched together once you hit the third act. And I vastly prefer what it was going for before the big turn. Ah well, can't win 'em all.

This is a Top 3 John Goodman performance though.
October 23, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (replay)

Still mostly goated, with a few rough patches here and there. I used to think this was the best of the trilogy but it's probably on par with Prime 1 for me now.

Final bosses seem rough at first but are actually really easy when you know what to do.

Bubsy in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind (SNES)

I'm not gonna go to bat and defend this game's honor or anything, I don't think it's GOOD, but like. I can tell they were trying to do good here. It shines through occasionally! Some parts are fun, buuuut not nearly enough. Back half gets rough.
