    All aboard the Polar Express multimedia franchise

    I never grew up with the Polar Express book as a kid and yet when I saw the movie as teenager, it made me feel like a kid that had read the book and loved the story. I remember it getting a lot of criticism at the time but now that many people who grew…

    A new Christmas Classic: Red One

    I remember watching the trailer for Red One and thinking how awful it looked just like most people did. A superhero movie with Santa and the rock. Beyond terrible, the marketing came and went and the movie didn’t perform well and well a couple of weeks later it was avaiable on streaming just in time…

    Discovery of Interstella 5555

    Summer 2001 was forever marked in my life with the song One More Time. I had seen a bit of the music videos as a kid adn always wondered what happened but never imagined there was an actual movie about it. I didn’t find out about that until much later. But a whole animated movie…

When we finally got a trailer…it seemed fine. Nothing particularly great or bad. Yet the internet went crazy. Sonic got a redesign and now it’s…

    Sonic Prime is disappointingly ok

    There was a lot of hype around a new Sonic the Hedgehog animated show, especially since it was supposed to be handled by Sega in a way so that it was game accurate. After Sonic Prime premiered a lot of that hype seemed to be gone. I didn’t begin watching until it was all over…

  • PS1 Tribute Memories

    PS1 Tribute Memories

    I didn’t grow up with the original Playstation, but its impact was definitely felt as a Nintendo owner. My Nintendo 64 could not do a lot of the “cool” stuff the PSX could do. I would come up with excuses as to why it didn’t matter, the fact was that I was jealous. I did…
