Sun, 13 July 2008 Up a Paddle - Episode 55 - Scary Tales In this episode I go over the announcements at Anime Expo, discuss the relative hotness of Disney Princesses, and play a segment recorded back on Easter. I also review Enchanted and Monster, because this is the Monster/Fairy Tales episodes. Here's the time codes if you want to skip ahead. I know I would: 0:00 Intro 0:35 The News American Death Note Movie In Development. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Will it end up crap like other crappy J-Horror to American Horror movies? We'll have to wait and see. More rumblings about Arrested Development movie. We need an Arrested Development movie. Come on! There are layers upon layers here I can't even begin to comprehend. Capcom vs Tatsunoko This looks like it will be an awesome game. Heck, even Morrigan from Darkstalkers has updated graphics. That hasn't happened for at least 13 years. Also there's the Gold Lightan Love Sporn (NSFW) This is why we can't have nice things, Internets. Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Can you imagine what these deviants and onanists are cooking up next. I shudder to think of it. This monstrousity causes me to shudder as well: Pedobear video What has 4chan wrought? Since that was disturbing, I thought I'd bring back teh actual sexy here with Wii Fit Girlfriend It's almost hypnotic Now, on to Anime News: Geneon is back ... Kind of ADV is also getting titles distributed by Funimation Funimation News Funimation sure is making out like a bandit in all of this. Must be all of that Fullmetal Alchemist and Dragon Ball Z money that they have lying around. ADV News I'm not dead yet! Bandai Visual, now part of Bandai Entertainment Bandai News I was really hoping that Bandai would have learned from Bandai Visual's failed marketing tactics, but I guess they aren't going to. Imaginasian News On the other hand, this was a business model I wish would have worked. Order a dvd and it's made for you. That's it for news 11:45 Email, Awesome Just like the movies First off I read an email from Maestro Davinci. I'm not sure but hoping this is the site you referred to in your email. If not, please send in the right one. http://www.moddb.com/ Judging by his email address, this is also a site he is affiliated with: http://jp-studios.com Here's the mod I mentioned Super Smash Bros DS Super Smash Bros Rumble in the Jungle 18:28 Promo - Dave and Joel's Fast Karate for the Gentlemen http://daveandjoel.com 19:15 Little Brother Challenge Admittedly, not the best challenge so far. I should have sprung for the large eggs. 29:40 Disney Princess Poll. It's coming down finally. Ding Dong the Witch is Dead. 35:49 Promoish sort of thing - I Luv the 80's. And I do. Hopefully after this, I'm not banned from listening to the podcast. 38:13 Review - Enchanted 41:45 Review - Monster ANN Entry for Monster Watch this show, darn it! Here's the show opening for Monster, so you can get an idea of the character designs: Monster Opener 1:00:01 Destroy All Podcasts DX promo 1:01:55 Wrap Up 1:03:10 Monster by Matchbook Romance Random Fact On Sesame Street, Bert's goldfish were named Lyle and Talbot Random Fact Kermit the Frog was left handed Contact Info Email: upapaddle@gmail.com Site: http://upapaddle.com Yeah, this episode kinda got away from me, in terms of quality and coherence, but at least it's over.

Mon, 30 June 2008 Up a Paddle - Special - Winging it In this special, I catch up with what's been happening with me lately. I've been working, studying, traveling, and being sick. Fun. Anyhoo, I did get to New York and I talk about it in the special. Also, I start a series of game reviews. This episode is a bit different than what I normally do. I'm without a script on this one. I hope it is coherent. If this experiment goes well, I might try doing it more often in order to get back on some sort of a schedule. Don't worry, episode 55 is still on the way. In the meantime, here's the flickr photos I was talking about: The promo was for http://anime-gen.com and http://animediet.net. The song was "What If I Get Sick" by New Sense Contact Info email: upapaddle@gmail.com site: http://upapaddle.com blog: http://kentcer.com Thanks for listening! Comments[0] |
Sun, 11 May 2008 Episode 54b - I Am Virtua Boy This episode I review Virtua Fighter: The Anime and Iron Man. Email Awesome: In this segment I talk about my April Fools day episode and why Cloverfield, although a great movie, has unlikable protagonists (unless you consider the monster the protagonist, in which case he is just cuddly). News New Dragonball anime I was right dagnammit! However, I may have been technically incorrect when I said it was for a Jump Festa. It appears to be for "Jump Super Anime Tour" Bandai Entertainment has licensed Gurren Lagann Gurren Lagann movie named, dated Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann: Guren-hen For September 6th in Japan Yep, I really like the Lagann. Guillermo Del Toro to direct Hobbit films. One W00t! to silence them all. Myst movie coming Dreamworks aquires rights to live action Ghost in the Shell. Steven Spielberg producing. Neko Ramen live action movie. Because you can't go wrong with live action movies about cartoon cats.... Oh wait Nintendo channel released Random Fact: In one day an average person will take about 18,000 steps. Now for a brief interlude: Mario Brother's Plumbing by Smart Bomb Radio: Reviews Virtua Fighter Wikipedia's Entry For this Show This is a great show and you guys should really check it out. I have a feeling I forgot to talk about the fighting in this show in my review. It was glorious. The moves looked realistic and it was quite enjoyable to watch. Here's what the show looks like: Virtua Fighter Opening Also, here's the Mortal Kombat vs DC Trailer Random Fact It takes eighteen minutes to cool hot chocolate into a Hershey's Kiss. Iron Man http://ironmanmovie.marvel.com/ You will believe a man can fly. A third time. Be sure to stay until after the credits, there's a stinger. Random Fact: A U.S. backed government study found that pigs can become alcoholics. Angry Dome: Death of the Best Radio Station ever Reminder Next episode: Episode 55 - the two year anniversary. Booyah. Please, someone send in a feedback. Something to validate UAP's existence (and by extension, my own). Maybe a email to upapaddle@gmail.com. Maybe a comment at the blog (http://upapaddle.com). You know, you go guy, congrats, something like that. Song Cheer up Emo Kid by Patent Pending Promos: Anime 82 (http://anime82.blogspot.com) Eeeper's Choice (http://eeeperschoice.com) * I'm really looking forward to Eeeper's new project, Capricorn Theatre (http://capricorntheater.com) where he reviews movies from the best decade ever, the 80s. And for the record, it's not the best decade because it was the one in which I was born. No, it's the best because that's when Smurfs: Rescue in Gargamel's Castle was released.
