  1. Venom the Last Dance 6/10 (Kind of a dumb and nonsensical storyline honestly that just seems like it served as an excuse to give the franchise one last hurrah. Visual effects were great and it was still kind of fun, but they should have come up with a better enemy for the final installment of a trilogy. Werewolves Within 9/10 More of a comedic whodunit than horror, but it was really funny. The dialogue and absurd style of humor in it reminded me a lot of Cocaine Bear.
  2. Ghost Stories 1 - 4 So far so ghould.
  3. The Chevalier dub I'd say is excellent really. Casting-wise, acting-wise, and the script sticks very close to the subtitles. I'm familiar with at least one ADV dub that Foster had a hand in that I thought was pretty terrible -- Those Who Hunt Elves -- but obviously for a property that was as highly regarded as Chevalier was it's not really that surprising I'd say that they tried to be as faithful to the original dialogue as they could with it. Ghost Stories is the one whose dub I'm curious about though. I mean Foster actually joked during at least one of the Chevalier episode commentaries that they pretty much just tossed the original script aside and just did whatever the hell they wanted with it, turning it into just a full blown comedy. I think after I finish watching it subbed I'll go back and watch at least one episode dubbed, but pretty sure I'm not gonna like it that much.
  4. Le Chevalier D'Eon 9 - 20 This show is so much better than I remember it being. I dunno, I think I got kind of distracted by other stuff I had going on when I was watching it before and I ended up not paying it the attention that it deserved and just lost interest about half way through in watching the rest of it. Was hoping to finish it before today, but since it's Halloween it's gonna have to wait cuz I really want to watch at least some of Ghost Stories today. Trying to find where I put the DVDs for it was kind of its own Halloween nightmare. One of the sucky parts about having such a big collection. Part of me is curious about the dub, given how notorious it is, but I really don't like when they take big liberties with changing the meaning from the original Japanese, and I don't think there's a bigger example of them doing so probably than with Ghost Stories from what I've heard.
  5. Le Chevalier D'Eon 1 - 8 Never did finish this one, so felt it's about time I got to doing so.
  6. So did anyone watch it all and completely lose their minds?
  7. Just got through watching the final season of Star Trek Discovery. Pretty good ending. My only semi-complaint is the last episode felt a bit anti-climactic, but Trek has always been more about the journey than the destination anyway, so I'd say it's actually a very fitting conclusion for the series.
  8. She's alive! And human... err. Well, almost. She's still got fangs, and demon-like eyes. Looks like Nezuko's VA's finally getting a pay raise, too.
  9. Think of it as a challenge. Can you possibly watch all four episodes in a row without going insane?
  10. Years have passed now? What has the center of the town become like a black hole with some kind time dilation effect going on around it now? Where's Mr. Spock when you need him? Fascinating.
  11. Hah! Yep, I had a feeling those row houses were gonna end up forming a spiral.
  12. Well, I guess now we know what Tom meant when he said there's no escape.
  13. Butterfly effect my butt! There's no way that can even come close to explaining any of the epic weirdness going on in that town.
  14. Those skull-faced giant soldiers at the end looked like something out of Tim Burton's imagination.
