Movies In Need Of A Re-Release Part 2

Yep, were (or I'm, rather) back to a new segment and I found some more ideas to movies or any DVD in general that are indeed in need of a Re-Release. Its been since May since I’ve done this? Well we have been getting lots of great DVDs this year with great Re-Release. Its been great since they actually Re-Released one item from my last list; which was: The Nightmare Before Christmas! It was a late add, but I had no idea. I am indeed awesome. Now besides still yearning A Rocketeer Re-Release here is a new list I have devised:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie Series:

Yes, the originals. Now they can do many things with this. They canteenage_mutant_ninja_turtles pull a Back to the Future and release it in one massive 3 movie set which I wouldn’t mind buying. I have always grown up with these guys and especially loved the first one. The other two, well I like for other reasons, but would buy even in a big set. Who else doesn’t think the 3rd movie feels like the old Ninja Turtles in Time Video Game? No one? Well, anyways if they release it individually, I might just go with the first one; it depends on a lot of things. At lease make a special edition of the first one please. Cowabunga!


An Unaltered Star Wars: The Original Trilogy Set:

Many Star Wars fans may and may not like the recent releases of the old Trilogy DVD, as with me, and crave the old Star Wars. Before it was altered in any way. It was released eventually, but I indeed was incredibly angry Star Wars fan when it has VHS quality video. It still gets me mad just thinking about it. I even have the old VHS original trilogy set; its like I could have done this on my own and put it on DVD. *sigh* Only in my dreams.

Akira, Princess Mononoke, and The End Of Evangelion:

I think its about time, no? I’ve had my copy of Akira for a while and Iakira haven’t gotten the old special edition set. Yet I feel there may be either more to say or at least an update. Just make a new Princess Mononoke and End of Eva DVD happen already. Tetsuo! Kaneda!



Disney Releases:

Disney has always had style and always make everything they owndisney exclusive. Meaning everything is just about limited with them. Especially with their Walt Disney Treasure sets. I have always disliked the fact that after a few months some of the sets were released, such as old Disney cartoons, are gone in an instant. Your last resort is to check EBay or just be plain lucky. Why should watching and exploring the history of its Disney cartoons be so exclusive? Especially with the movies. Disney’s Vault program has always been a bad idea. Wonder if Walt would even allow this if we arose from his frozen capsule today…

Hook:

Yeah, why not. I loved it. Anyone else? Nope? Just me?hook_ver1

Return to Oz:

Surprisingly frightening. An unofficial sequel of The Wizard of Oz1193936901-23117_full which indeed does deserve a new release. This is also Editor Walter Murch’s only film ever made. There is DVD release as of 2004, but I’d to see some extras on the idea of the story. Its a very dark flick which involves shock therapy to Dorothy whom is sent to an psychiatry ward, which you probably have a good guess why. If you haven’t seen it, be sure to check it out when you can. Also I caught this on Disney one night and crept the hell outta me. Those were the dark days of Disney indeed.

What else…I’ll get back to you in another 7 months.

Apocalypse Now


Just picked up this game and it really is the end in this game. I've played a good 10+ hours I think already with the game. Its a really long game but extremely addicting as you can tell. It really feels like Terminator except for John Connor and Skynet, but...I'll explain later. Well anyways it seems to revolve around an alternate world since the 1950 era is heavily influenced until the year of 2077, which was the year when the nuclear war began. In Fallout 3 the year is now 2277 and is set 200 years after the nuclear war. The first Fallout games occur at earlier time, but I haven't played them; so I will save the whole history of Fallout for a later time. Anyways, most humans have been living underground in Vaults to keep safe from the nuclear disaster. The player you play as escapes the vault he/she (You get to choose the gender) lives in and must look for his/her father in the post-apocalyptic landscape. 


You will meet friendly people, confusing people, mutated animals/people, and people who will just shoot you on sight. The world is now officially screwed up yet the eery landscape has a somewhat beautiful sight to see. There are a few things that will help you survive in the barren world. One most important thing is the PIP-Boy 3000.


Everything you need will be right here. You can choose weapons, change your outfit, check stats, quests, etc. The PIP-Boy 3000 is now your best friend. Here's a video which shows a slew of things and a demonstration of the all around important VATS system:


Well thats most of all the basics of Fallout 3 and how to survive. I have not beaten the game yet so this is an incomplete review yet will recieve a rating anyway. And the Terminator theory, lets just say its not far off from an actual Terminator RPG which would be awesome. Also since with the new Terminator movie coming out soon, I need to be explained about the whole timeline with Terminator. Looks like Marty and Doc really screwed with the space time continuum with that. 

Fallout 3 gets a 9.8 out of 10. An almost perfect score, if the character models wouldn't look so grudgy.

Our Next President: Barack Obama!

A new tomorrow? As Palin once put it: You betcha. A long road a head of him as he heads to the White House, unfortunately not for another 2 and a half months. Comedy Central covered the Polls nicely. CNN used holograms. Others I have no idea what they did. Obama slaughtered McCain gaining 338 in the polls and McCain with 156. Anyhow welcome our new and first Black President and new hope: Barack Obama.
