Not enough is done to thank them for their service
Even though Hollywood celebrity Rich Evans is kind enough to grace their miserable lives with his presence
Really showing my age here, but you all missed out on Quualudes
They were fucking great
ive never met anyone else who watched the original he man cartoon.
The “Masters of the Universe” live action movie suuuuuuuuuuucks
its bad enough to make the cartoons seem good.
Now you have.
at last! it was a bad show bad man i loved it.
Watching it as an adult it’s amazing to see how little effort they put into it.
it was a toy ad and i loved it. The only reason even i watched it is because it was my dads favorite cartoon when he was a kid so he got it for me. I loved skelator nehehehehehehe!
I played with my He-man shit constantly, and watched the cartoon. As an adult, it’s apparent that the cartoon was extremely low effort.
Mine was a copy of ‘The Last Starfighter’ my aunt recorded off HBO.
We had some homemade VHS tapes of the Ghostbusters cartoon, ExoSquads, and Ren & Stimpy. Also had several of the land before time movies.
Tmnt2: secret of the ooze. Had it memorized.
Same!
Actually only saw this a couple times, but the first time I saw it was in the theater, sitting in the front row like a dumbass.
I almost definitely saw it in theaters but all I remember about it is watching it on vhs, all day erryday.
I remember having an elaborate network of people who’d mail VHS tapes to me as a kid. It’s what you did before simply downloading a video file was feasible piracy. I’d go on a BBS and knew a guy who knew a guy who was copying anime off Japanese broadcasts. Anyone remember those ugly yellow subtitles? They were ubiquitous.
I remember being a lot more passionate back then about it. Like I was literally 12 years old helping coordinate this international piracy ring. After limewire became a thing my contacts fizzled away. I wonder what happened to them.
Oh, and also my parents were very confused by my hobby. My mother one time saw an anime in the $2 bargain bin at Dollar General. I don’t know how or why they had it, but the one she grabbed was Bible Black, which is a hentai about girls being possessed by demons and growing dicks. She innocently gave it to me thinking it was just any other anime. Was funny.
Fern Gully comes to mind for me.
Also my little sister watched Legally Blonde almost every day after school.

Not a lot of people know what I’m talking about when I bring up BeetleBorgs. They’ll all know Power Rangers, but the BeetleBorgs are King.
I’m still mad at that show for exactly one episode. The actress who played the Red Beetleborg gets replaced in episode 39. I’m not mad at her getting replaced, just the contrivance of the plot. She gets hit by some kind of space beam that makes her look slightly different (because it’s a different actress now). And the episode’s plot is about trying to make her look normal again. But all they manage to do is make her look normal to most people, but the audience and main characters will still see her altered appearance.
Just replace the character, holy shit. Make a new red beetleborg how hard is it
BeetleBorgs is the same tier as VR Troopers in the Power Rangers pyramid.
BIG BAD BEETLEBORGS!
BEETLEBORGS METALLIX!
I was about 28 when I realized that Jay Leno was not, in fact, in BeetleBorgs.
I somehow always forget about his character even though he’s like the main plot device initiating the whole thing.
Thanks to trump we now call cult classics “tax write offs no one will see”
Did that start under
? I lost track in the spreading circus fire.My understanding is that it was part of a tax bill that allows a company to write off depreciation immediately by reducing the usable life of a product instead of taking a percentage of a loss over multiple years.
When I looked into it, there are a lot of “well ackshually” articles about how destroying Batgirl was not tax advantageous
Puff the Magic Dragon on VHS when I was really little
Spent my early years with a phobia of the landstriders from The Dark Crystal and zero clue about what the plot was.
I couldn’t watch the scene where they drain the little elf guy for his life force. Or the scene where lady takes her eye out and looks at them in a cage.
Watched Big Trouble in Little China like twice a day for a while as a kid, but I can barely even remember the story now.
'03 baby but grew up poor with a box tv, nobody else my age knew what VHS tapes were. The Land Before Time and The Little Toaster were dope
edit: I had both worlds eventually, when I was like 8 my parents got me a janky android tablet with netflix, so for a big part of my childhood I was switching between cable, VHS movies, and streaming
