Inspired choice. Think I know who Sonic 3's casting director is.

I’ll take some Lemon Sundrop Dandelion and give it a whirl.

I knew Jim would ultimately come back. No one “retires” if the money truck gets packed tight with enough Benjamins.

The original game no longer functions properly on my PC’s graphics card (can’t believe it’s that old now : / ); so I guess an official remake will be the next best thing. And Steam Deck compatibility is a must, too.

This guy’s opinion is more or less reflective of my own; I’m nostalgic for the aesthetic, the soundtrack, and (being the last time they were used before being replaced by the Sonic X cast) even the voiceovers. Everything but the gameplay. I’m more sympathetic to the final product than fond of it. (Apparently Takeshi

I had a fancasting idea for Shadow that just popped into my head one sleepless night: Jaleel White. A part of me would just be tickled by the idea of the OG Sonic voicing Edgy The Hedgey. And I think the old cartoon watching thirtysomethings going to see this with their kids would appreciate the in-joke.

Someone’s earned himself a special seat with some new friends down at the ol’ Punxsutawney Pub.

I just realized that next August is going to mark a decade since we lost him. Still feels fresh.

RIP, Robin.

Y’know... When sportswriters make the slip-up I can understand it — Fun Fact, the Twins, Vikings, T’Wolves & Wild are the only quartet that keep the statewide naming convention consistent across all franchises, so they’re kinda primed to use ‘Minnesota’ as their stand-in for the Twin Cities.

... But when the likes of

It’s RMS Titanic, not HMS Titanic. Short For ‘Royal Mail Ship Titanic’. That’s twice this site’s messed it up. Sheesh.

Side note: Now I have yet another lil’ niche( {—-} this big) pet peeve when it comes to inaccuracies in professional reporting. The other is whenever a large news source or reporter cites the

It’s always been my theory that the fandom of Star Trek TNG and Stargate SG-1 are hugely overlapping if not exactly the same fandom.

“Season 2 threw Star Trek 4 and Star Trek 8 into a blender... So how ‘bout this time we toss Star Trek 2 and Star Trek 3 together?

I think what they’ll ultimately do is something in between: Hire a sound-alike for Morty, and stunt cast a celebrity for Rick. More expensive, but it can also make the pivot more marketable. Sorta like how Squidbillies got Tracy Morgan for the lead in its farewell season.

For those who would rather watch a (somewhat less) affectionate essay on the second Sonic Advance than read one. Because it’s the day after Christmas, and a lotta y’all are prolly still a lil’ hungover.

I still kind of think it’s a mistake to make The Doctor a male again so soon. It feels like a sub-textual admission from the BBC that 13 and her whole run was a mistake. I would’ve like to have seen an east/southeast Asian woman take on the role. Maybe next time.

My solution for not falling for over-the-phone scams is simple, but elegant: I do not own a telephone of any kind.

I need to notify my ol’ 6th grade teacher in ‘99: The Pokeyman finally caught Jamaal!
