Re: Jab’s Builds! (Rive! Martin Strong! The Creeper! Care Bears!)

Care Bears is not anywhere near my favorite franchise, but Care Bears Movie II will always stick out in my head for its ending: the evil sorcerer in the form of a young boy repenting for his crimes after accidentally getting his friend (who might also have been his love interest) killed and he had t...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Home Improvement! Rampage! Addams Family! Snatcher!)

There was a Chex Quest game that used the Doom engine. https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/804270/capsule_616x353.jpg?t=1623335853 I owned the CD for this, but could never bring myself to load it up on my desktop. From what I heard though, it was okay. Not terrible at all, actually so...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Home Improvement! Rampage! Addams Family! Snatcher!)

Snatcher remains an interesting piece of video game history. Hideo Kojima, coming off the success of creating Metal Gear decided to test the boundaries between video game and movie, and created a product that would be the blueprint that would be further refined in the critically acclaimed game Poli...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (GoldenEye! James Pond! Combatribes! Pitfall!)

Heh, sort of a stealth sequel to the Sherlock Hound anime, maybe? Yeah, per Wikipedia it's got the same "atmosphere". Montana Jones (モンタナ・ジョーンズ, Montana Jōnzu) is an Italian-Japanese comedy adventure anime television series produced by Studio Junio and River Cinematografica and which was ...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Asuka 120%- Cathy! Karina! Tamaki! Superman Builds!)

Superman inspires a lot of complex feelings in me. On one hand, I feel like he is the meter stick by which all other superheroes must be measured against. And his image is one that should be taken at face value as aspirational and lacking in cynicism, or it falls apart very quickly. One of the reaso...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Asuka 120%- Torami! Cathy Wild! Karina! Tamaki!)

The cast for this came is every distilled trope of anime girls in the early to mid-1990's, and I like it a lot. Very nostalgic to my old eyes. Yeah, so many of these characters are rooted in the old-school tropes it's amazing. Things that spark the nostalgic gleam: The wild hair colors, especially ...

My awareness of Asuka 120% comes from reading articles about in video game magazines like EGM and GamePro back in the day. That was often the only way to lea...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Gorilla-Man! 3-D Man! White Fox! The Hippo!)

Pretty underwhelming lot of villains in the past few pages. I don't think most of them would even warrant more than a paragraph on The Appendix to the Handbook of the Marvel Universe, the website for this kind of obscure fluff. About the Asian characters. You can tell they were made for maximum dive...

Re: RIP Scott Hall

I'm just glad he was able to deal with his demons before passing. It did him a lot of good. Hall had unfortunately relapsed during the pandemic and it was a major factor in his death. https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/th0es7/won_scott_hall_was_deteriorating_for_the_past_2/ It's import...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Rent A Hero! Virtua Cop! The Grandmaster!)

I'll also chime in and thank you for writing up the Elders of the Universe. A very intriguing group of Cosmic-level characters that have been used to varying degrees of effectiveness by Marvel over the past half-century. My favorite is the Collector, just because of the novelty of a character who ha...
