Time fo' a whuppin!

Yes, today's Supernova's release day and I might even get out to pick up a few boosters despite tomorrow being the day brick and then case are scheduled to come to me, but for the moment I have nothing to say about it aside from noting ugly rumors about collation inside some of the cases.

So! Because I'm sick of seeing the same entry on this site, and Crypt Leak sent me this entertaining link from not merely a film but something of a franchise I was unaware of, I'm posting this.

From 1976, and nearly 8 minutes long, it's Dolemite (Rudy Ray Moore) in a long fight scene from The Human Tornado. Low budget, blaxsploitation goodness! Hand me my pimp cane, woman!

I'll be back to tedious posts on the new Heroclix set soon enough, I'm sure. Hopefully tomorrow night I'll have something better to report than the mostly ugly rumors from some other case buyers about crappy collation this time around, with wildy imbalanced cases.

Many apologies! Not many men could wear a hat like that without working at Burger King. With that outfit I'll have to get him the umanhay ornadotay oundtracksay to go with it.

Yay! New work clothes. W00T!

I see I'll have to train SuperFiancee and the Super Kids to kick ass in the mighty martial arts manner! Then we can wander the yards, upper hallways, and basements of River City, beating the crap out of maniacal white guys and their dopey looking thugs!

(Super Adorable Kid is a little young for both the asskicking and the required dress code, so she can stand off to the side holding the boom box that's playing the electronic 70s soundtrack. The sound of the horns, the guitars, the synthesizers, will be a warning to crazy white guys everywhere that Highlander and the Highlemites are about to hit them upside the haid with a little yellow office trash can! ::shaking head from side to side:: Bwululllulululuh!)

(TV/streaming video) New & Leftover Items, a Touch of 2024, and some Nostalgic Forensics

    So much else calling out for attention, and with watchables already piled up, finding even more things to watch doesn't seem like much of a sane prospect. I'm not even fishing around for new things at the moment, as I need to get some other things done and make some attempt to round out my life a little.       This week on Paramount+, the fourth season of the animated Star Trek: Lower Decks came to a satisfying end. A manic pace of in-universe nods continues to give it the Star Trekiest of Trek feels with the casual, plot-essential trivia drawn from decades of Star Trek shows, woven throughout.       Also there, the contemporary Frasier series' first season hits its halfway point with episode five. I'm enjoying it, but it continues to walk a wobbly line as some of it works smoothly while other moments reek of formula, with some of each overlapping. I'd be very interested in seeing how well or not this new series works on its own for someone who'd never wat

Catching Up with Old Friends (Streaming media series)

   I haven't done any blogging posts on current and streaming media since November 3rd, which broke a streak of weekly ones that had been going since September of 2019 - albeit as part of a different, group, blog. As with many such inactions, it wasn't intended as a formal stoppage, just a momentary delay, but here it is five weeks later. This post's linking theme is the return of fondly-remembered characters. It really should include the recent arrival to streaming of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny over on Disney+, but I haven't really mustered my reactions to that. Instead, I'll stick with two other nostalgic items that arrived this week.       Yesterday saw the arrival of the season finale, episode ten, of Kelsey Grammar's return of Frasier Crane in the 2023 iteration of Frasier , over on Paramount+.      The series picked up on the titular character in the present, whom we haven't seen since his 11-season first series wrapped in mid-May

Oct.13-19 - More Returns and Changes

      Even though I've already watched the pair of debut episodes of Frasier (see next paragraph), and this week's Star Trek: Lower Decks (which continues to do a stellar job of mining  previous Trek series for character, episode and extraterrestrial culture lore and deftly applying them at breakneck speeds), I still have multiple things I'm looking forward to catching up on, including new eps of Gen V (Amazon Prime), Loki (Disney+), and both Archer and Welcome to Wrexham (both on Hulu), along with the first two episodes of a final six for Doom Patrol over on Max... and that's just off the top of my head, so getting this week's streaming post out of the way brings those one step closer for me.       I've watched the two episodes of the new Frasier series that arrived on Paramount+ this week, and while it was a mixed bag it was good to see the character back, with him attempting to move into his third act by returning to Boston, where we first met the ch
