Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (SNES) w/ commentary

(2026 Update: Originally a 2013 Dailymotion upload that was posted onto Youtube a year later, my playthrough of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie with running commentary. This was in response to a video review of the game from which the brief snippet between new intro and title card is taken from. Nothing against the dude, just a difference of opinion.)

Spoke Too Soon

Recently in a video, I gave slight praise to the Xbox 360 controller that I bought for Windows… maybe I spoke too soon, because last night, when I plugged in the receiver to test out a game I haven’t played in a long time, it wouldn’t work. My PC doesn’t recognize it or anything… and I’ve tried several USB ports to no success. Maybe it’s the hardware… will have to try some other PC.

(October 2013 Update: Works with the new PC I picked up in July and rather well. The trade off is that the wireless keyboard and mouse combination likes to spazz out once in a blue moon… oh well.)

Congratulations, Linkara… I Really Mean It

I’ve sat through a Linkara video for the first time in ages… technically not a Linkara video since he was accompanied by someone called Obscurus Lupa or something… one of those TGWTG personalities I never heard of. Anyway, they did a riff of sorts on the timeless Christmas special, Alpha’s Magical Christmas. Yes,  they’re talking about a Christmas video in the tail end of March… which actually doesn’t bother me all that much. Hell, if you can have Halloween in July, why not Christmas in March? Who cares about Easter anyway?

But I digress…

So I watch this video. After watching said video, I can honestly say that if there was anything worse than sitting through Alpha’s Magical Christmas in its entirety, it’s sitting through a really shitty riff of it. So, congratulations, Lewis. You participated in something that somehow managed to outsuck Alpha’s Magical Christmas. It takes a real feat of accomplishment to do that.
On the bright side, this video wasn’t saddled with pointless storyline drivel. It was nice, simple, and to the point. It still sucked (and not in the “so bad it’s good” way – no, it really sucked the big one), but at least it wasn’t taken down to CWC levels of unbearability with rubbish stories.
If you want a good review and riffing of Alpha’s Magical Christmas (and don’t mind a bit of reading), check out this classic X-Entertainment posting which goes through the special without the waffle.
