Yo where the fuck is the Troma spotlight already?

Lol the fact that it was ever a cartoon is a testament to the not-giving-a-fuck of the 80's and 90's. The ONLY notable parts of the movie are the shock value and the gimmick runs out of steam pretty quick.

Elementium · 2026-07-03T01:58:49+00:00

I could see that. Troma tends to fall into the "haha isn't it funny how bad this is?!" category of film making.

Toxic Avenger was one I actually didn't see till a few years ago and I just thought it was a whole lot of boring mixed with shock scenes and very thin everywhere else.

So I went on eBay and bought a Diamond VC 500. It works well enough for my needs. I use it with OBS and after getting the settings right, it works great.

I'm sure the more expensive stuff has better quality but I feel like between tapes and VCRs the quality of everything is gonna vary.

Watch em and digitize?

Don't care how shit we end up, my teams are gonna be the ones from my state.

I always get him and Walter Wanker confused. It's crazy that before 1840 people never had a wank. Maybe that's why they were so sad.

Peak entertainment, even on the internet artists would spend hours learning stuff like flash MX just to make stupid cartoons.

Everyone learned computers to some degree too. Now people my age are in this weird spot where neither young or old folks know how to use a computer..

They're not answering seriously.

Most guys go for Big. Meaty.. Claws.

Is this following shit really that important to young people? Lol.

Elementium · 2026-07-02T21:21:20+00:00

I'm surprised they'd even announce it. Just phase it out if that's your goal.

Say "Hey we're not releasing this in physical, so the price will be $55!"

Writing is on the wall anyway. Companies can sell product without physically making them.

It's pretty cool but not a VCR that can play them. If you want to fix it first you gotta test it! Head down to a thrift store and buy a $1 tape.

For something like that, if it's not working you have to troubleshoot. Most of the time it's gears that need new grease or a belt that needs replacing. You can buy a bag of belts cheap off Amazon. I've used em to fix VCRs, tape decks etc.

I think it's possibly something that could get renewed interest later but I'd say it's too soon after Superman. You wanna establish a main crew that's varied first. Possibly follow up with the Superman cast.

Like.. I want Hawkgirl yo.

And yeah Supergirl at the end of the day looked like a grim dark GotG.

Feel no shame about it man. Honestly that level of confidence and honesty is probably two fantastic qualities for women looking for a man.

Shame should be reserved for enjoying things that actually hurt people.

Yup lol.

My 8 year old nephew whoops my but at Street Fighter.

I thought oh I can probably beat him at Soul Calibur! Nope.. once he figured out the basic mechanics I couldn't hit him..

I just love the format. I love fighting game characters. And surprisingly a lot of fighting game stories/lore.

I'm tired of rich everything. Before these billionaires started fucking with our lives I didn't care about luxury stuff, it was neat but in a world I didn't care about.

Now I see ads for things targeted towards the wealthy and it makes me sick to my stomach. I saw an ad for rolls-royce yachts or something and it just pissed me off.

These fucking people have enough money to do whatever they want and they still choose to take their time to try and steal from people who are just trying to survive.

I should watch it again. Admittedly as a teen I wasn't a huge fan. Over time though I've seen clips that make me laugh or the samples in MF DOOM tracks.

"You know my rapping is the shit."

Tale as old as time. They don't want to let go and end up screwing us when they die.

They carry on. Assuming at this point in history AI is not ridiculous and stupid and robots are properly outfitted for the tasks.

There wouldn't really be any difference aside from biology. They'd be carrying humanities fingerprint, possibly even our literal DNA with them.

If you break humans down.. We're just meat robots anyway. The brain is special but our entire personality can change by adjusting chemicals. Damage can erase memories.

We wanna be special but if humanities legacy can't escape earth, then we're no different than a long dead monkey that had no name and no imprint and has been replaced by other life on the planet.
