Watched The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey for the 1st time in maybe 11 years? 1st time watching the extended cut. Barring the issues of stretching The Hobbit across 3 films, I think this movie holds up well. It's a really good story of Bilbo learning to live outside of his maps and books.

This is a 90s Chapel Hill indie scene appreciation post. Archers of Loaf and Superchunk clear the majority of 90s bands from more well-known scenes (cough cough Seattle). Just killer stuff.

Kind of related, but I never got the Samwise minifig. I had all of the other members of the fellowship, but I think Sam only came in the Shelob set. I got Moria and Weathertop, plus Gandalf's cart for Christmas that year.

I'm gearing up for a reread, so I watched the Ralph Bakshi Lord of the Rings for the first time tonight, and this movie rules. It isn't perfect, but I really loved the part leading up to the Council of Elrond and the Mines of Moria section.

This means I've finished my Fugazi vinyl collection! Super hyped to have all of them together.

In the anime, I really love that Goku feels something is off, but he isn't sure what. The anime chooses to build tension VS the manga surprising reader. Both are excellent and work well for their respective mediums.

It's great in the manga too of course. It seems like he's going to come right back to Goku and the gang, which makes his death so shocking.

First time watching through the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, and the anime really makes some cool changes to Kuririn's farewell before his murder from how Toriyama did it in the manga.

Started Dragon Quest I HD-2D last night and immediately got hit with a huge amount of nostalgia of playing the original on an emulator on my phone during class in high school about 10 years ago. I paid attention in other classes, but DQ1 took precedent over anything in 9th grade Pre-AP Bio.

Possibly the best he ever looked, if I may say so.

Did SH Figuarts just announce a new kid Gohan figure? Yes.
Did I just buy the old one anyway? Yes.

Good day to spin Fugazi's End Hits.
It's their album I like the least, but no other band's "worst" album is as good as End Hits. Guilford Fall, Recap Modotti, and Foreman's Dog are some of my favorite Fugazi tracks.

This fight alone makes this movie worth watching. As a big Raphael fan, it's super engaging. The back and forth between him and Leo os fantastic and the setting in the rain is killer.

I watched the 2007 TMNT for the first time tonight, despite being a lifelong Turtles fan and being a kid when this came out.
It's a mixed bag. Decent banter between the turtles, awful human character designs, and really low resolution backgrounds.
That Raph Vs Leo fight though...

Just finished listening to the iconic Fugazi gig from Olympia, Washington in '95. Obviously the performance of Shut The Door from this show is legendary, but the band puts on an outstanding performance from beginning to end. Brendan's drums in particular sound incredible on this recording.

I'm about 3 hours into Silent Hill f, and I'll be damned if this isn't the creepiest game I've ever played. The setting and vibe are just off the charts. Big recommendation from me.

I don't know if I have a favorite member of the Bat Family. Tim was Robin when I was a kid, so there's lots of nostalgia there. Jason is super awesome conceptually. Barbara rules, too. But Dick Grayson might be the coolest character in American fiction.

Catching up on the Watters and Soy Nightwing run. This book absolutely kicks ass. Issue 124 in particular really blew me away.

I got the 3DS remake as a Christmas present when I was a kid, so I have a lot of love for this game. Day 1 purchase for me.
