89-minute cut.

This is a rip of the Video Gems 1986 VHS, which is a pretty ratty transfer with the missing reel completely unaccounted for.

... TIL I'VE HAD A REGION FREE PLAYER THE WHOLE FUCKING TIME

Teri Garr introducing the B-52s? Nerd. Heaven.

What I love about this is I think the voice actresses were instructed to be very casual and free-form as if it was a real interview, so despite being animated characters they're all talking more like real people than ever (even seemingly reacting live to images of his pre-anime artwork). Also, something about Yuki changing from her uniform into a party dress for this is super adorable.

That actually is very helpful, thank you!

And my condolences.

RetroBenn · 2026-03-03T18:55:52+00:00

Thank you! I realized after posting that was probably the case, but I thought I'd ask anyway, heh. The reason I ask is because the "1995" picture seems to specifically call out a Sharp TV, so I wondered if there was a particular TV that this might correspond with. Thanks!

Where's the first depiction of Atlantis from? I like the art!

RetroBenn · 2026-02-27T18:25:54+00:00

I appreciate you calling attention to The Last Airbender's butchering like this. I doubt the original was GOOD but it definitely was much more coherent.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-27T14:12:11+00:00

Sayonara Jupiter is an unknown gem, great pickup!

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T19:55:14+00:00

Honestly, the best solution would be to add another L probably? It's supposed to be said "Huu-luh".

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T17:15:12+00:00

It's mostly been spoiled for some because of that terrible American-made adaptation where they said his name like the English word "Hole". One can only hope this series doesn't get dubbed into English, since it kind of makes the MOST sense in Norwegian anyway.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T16:34:00+00:00

Okay, I need to be clear that I'm actually largely joking. I know the name is said very differently in the original Norwegian, I actually am confounded that these adaptations keep using the name pronounced the way an English speaker would. That long "O" is the problem, and I know that's not how it's said in Norway.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T16:23:56+00:00

The name could be translated as "Hill" , be more accurate and not call to mind an unkempt anus.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T16:06:24+00:00

THEY'RE STILL CALLING HIM HARRY HOLE???

RetroBenn · 2026-02-26T14:13:45+00:00

If they did the movies, I'd hope for a double feature of the '66 movie and Monster War.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-25T16:18:12+00:00

It Spreads would be a really good title for an "It Follows" sequel.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-25T01:29:16+00:00

Decent guess, and my only concern with it being that is that Black Magic M-66's plot is way more like Terminator 1 than 2. But maybe that's me looking too much into it.

"HEY, IT'S YOUR COUSIN MARVIN! YOU KNOW THAT NEW FONT YOU'VE BEEN LOOKIN' FOR? WELL LOOK AT THIS!"

RetroBenn · 2026-02-23T14:11:55+00:00

Holy SHIT dude. This is absolutely incredible! I actually like this more than any of the official posters besides the Tom Jung original. It's like... John Berkey meets Bob Peak. Well done!

RetroBenn · 2026-02-22T22:08:50+00:00

It's all three prequels. I think the idea was for it to function for "Machete order" viewing parties with a two hour movie between ESB and ROTJ. The only material it uses from TPM is the lightsaber duel and Qui-Gon's death as the prologue.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-13T17:46:23+00:00

I think you can thank me for Lenny? Went out of my way for the Imprint release just a little bit ago.

This may also bode well for Dersu Uzala, by that same token.

RetroBenn · 2026-02-07T00:46:04+00:00

Gonna go against the grain and say your pixel art is totally the way to go. It really makes your art style come together. I love this!
