Review in a Nutshell:  A film that wallows a little too much in its own sense of campiness, Flash Gordon nevertheless has great costumes, colorful sets, and solid model design.  The supporting characters, especially the villains, really steal the show.

Gnash your teeth in agony, because Cool World is definitely not the Greatest Movie EVER!

Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest cohost Gerald Rathkolb from AnimeWorldOrder.

Review in a Nutshell:  Crippled by a wretched script, bad performances, and a non-stop deluge of animated nonsense, Cool World mutates from an interesting premise into a movie so bad that even its creator has disowned it.  It’s almost enough to make me feel sorry for Bakshi for foisting this kind of film upon the viewers of the world.  Almost.

PLEASE NOTE: Sean’s sound is going to be a little off until we can arrange a better recording set-up for him. Please bear with us.

Review in a Nutshell: Cobbled together from elements filmed by two drastically different directors, Superman II is one of those films that we loved as a kid that doesn’t hold up well when viewed with the eyes of an adult. Some of the fight scenes and special effects are still nifty, though.

Click on the poster or the movie title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest cohost Gerald Rathkolb from AnimeWorldOrder.

Review in a Nutshell:  Uneven, over-sexed,  and outright weird in places, Heavy Metal is nonetheless a unique animated experience.  It might be even nerdier than T.R.O.N.

Loony Bin Jim.

Jigsaw.

Um…overcompensating, maybe?
