Here’s An Insightful Bret Hart Interview

Hell, every Bret Hart interview is insightful… especially from someone who is as honest as you could possibly get as it relates to wrestling.

“B-B-But Jim Cornette is honest! He doesn’t toot anyone’s horn! He’s as honest as one can be! Also fuck Vince Russo!”

Tell me whose bright idea it was to book Dr. Death in the Brawl For All and don’t tell me it was Russo.

Fuck… you’re getting me started on this, aren’t you?

Listen, I had a video planned for tonight… but that’s been pushed to next week. So I had another video planned… but that’s been pushed to Monday. What are we doing tonight, then?

Nothing.

See you tomorrow for another Gimmick Table.

Sony Releases Stupid Piece Of Shit That Doesn’t Fucking Work

(And of course, it’s age-restricted… Thanks, mainstream monkeys.)

From reputable news outlet The Onion comes this report about Sony’s plans to release another shitty doodad that doesn’t do the thing it’s fucking supposed to.

Wait, what do you mean this is a parody video?

Hold on, what do you mean this video is SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD?!

I thought this was relevant.

Still is.

Oh well…

Tomorrow’s a proper vid… but not THAT vid. Tomorrow will explain why.

A Delay In Video Means I Can Talk About This…

More deal into the gameplay, which includes custom chips for custom abilities – either collectables or a shop mechanic in place. We also see a new Robot Master (the eloquently named “Twinkle Girl”) as well as an old Robot Master (Mega Man 8 & Bass’ Astro Man), which implies some old faces returning. And speaking of which, although not seen in-game, presser material unveils that Proto Man will be a playable character.

Oh, and the new Override system… which is a kill shot similar to Mega Man 11’s Double Gear kill shot that’s active on desperation… a little less enthused on that, but hey, let it play out and see where it goes.

New review (not Mega related) will be up later tonight because I forgot to upload it. Sorry.

There Is A Golden Axe Cartoon Coming… And It’s A Thing…

Believe me when I say that calling this “a thing” is probably the nicest thing I have to say about this. And once I knew Mike McMahan was one of the dudes behind this – he of Lower Decks fame – I had a feeling on where this was headed.

For what it’s worth, I did like Lower Decks. It took a while to grow on me, but it did, eventually… but that doesn’t necessarily mean I want another cartoon in that vein. That brand of comedy starts to wear itself thing. Small doses, I can accept. Series after series of this stuff, however? No thanks.

Oh well… we’ll see how the diehards react, point and laugh accordingly, and move on with our lives.

The Irate Gamer (Yes, THAT Irate Gamer) Is Writing A Book On Unreleased NES Games

Remember Chris Bores? Remember the Irate Gamer? They’re one and the same. Anyway, he has a new book coming out that’s all about unreleased NES games and it’s the ULTIMATE GUIDE to unreleased NES games.

Yes, the guy who brought you Ghost Hunting 2.0 is writing a book about unreleased NES games. Some call that Pat fellow and tell him he’s being robbed or something. I don’t know.

In all seriousness, good for him. Wish him all the best. Not sure if I’ll grab a copy for myself, but considering I had a (digital) copy of his other book somewhere, I figure why not? It can’t be any worse than the Moviebob book, anyway.

Yes, even now, I still remember the day Bob Chipman ruined Super Mario Bros. 3 for me… best not reopen old wounds.

Strange New Worlds Season 4 Trailer

You notice that in all these teasers and trailers that they’ve put out since the first one… they never once mentioned the muppet?

Don’t think that I forgot about that, kid.

Beyond that, though? Looks promising enough… nice to see them explore some strange new worlds rather than explore some strange big swings that fail miserably. Bit of an issue having way too much Kirk here, but I guess that’s going to be inevitable in these closing hours of this five-year mission… if only it had been five years rather than… every once in a while when it’s convenient to the scheduling.

Season 4 premieres in July.

Brand New Day… The Movie

I am conflicted. On the one hand, it looks like a promising flick. It hits all the right notes. And it feels like the first time that Todd Holland gets to play in an old-school, back to basics Spider-Man flick.

On the other hand, though… knowing how often the Marvel train derailed itself so many times with empty promises and lackluster returns…

I don’t know… I want to give this thing a chance because it looks like a fun time, but I’m weary of another theatrical letdown…

I don’t know, kids… we’ll see.
