On the list of things that have been getting modern remakes and soft reboots have been TV shows. Weirder still, they’ve been doing this with shows who’ve been off the air for two generations. In yet another installment we have The Man From U.N.C.L.E.[2015]. It stars Henry Cavill as Napoleon Solo who teams up with Armie Hammer as Illya Kuryakin. It’s set in the Cold War era and a scientist has invented a new method of refining plutonium that’s so easy even a caveman could do it. So it’s a rush

Manga Pulse 445: Interspecies Shinto

Another episode and yet two more manga from the box of mystery. Whoever wanted us to review this intended us to hurt a little. If that was the intent, they’ve done an incredible job dispensing agony. So if they need feedback for masterclass in villainy, top marks from us. Tim has Shinto. At first glance, you might be confused into thinking it’s a manga. Sure the pages are backwards but the style is clearly manga and the title is Japanese. But it’s an OEL and that’s just

Wow, another episode with two '0's' in a row! Let's celebrate!

There's some Q&A, a competition announcement, awards and finally me and Joseph talk a little bit about our favorite anime. Here's to another 100!

Giant monster fight the movie better known as Godzilla Vs Kong[2021]. It just came out and we drove to Texas to enjoy some pre-2019 theater experience for it. So you’d all better be grateful that we did that very real thing in order to bring you an unwanted review. There’s Kong, who’s older and bigger now so the fight isn’t one sided. Godzilla attacks Florida, presumably because Florida-man sold him some cut bath salts. The not-an-evil-corporation headquartered there was definitely not

The working version. Stephen King has a long history with adaptations of his work. No small amount of it has been decent to good books being turned into movies that are best described as “free, please take”. Is this a problem with trying to cram a book big enough to beat a rhino into submission into ninety minutes? We attempt to find out by watching Mangler and Cat’s Eye. The Mangler is, inexplicably, a movie based on the short story about a laundry machine that gets possessed

From a mystery box, whence no one knows it came. We drew from it a pair of books, the like of which we had never lain eyes. An ethereal brilliance reached out and blinded us for an instant. Like a dream, the light was gone. Leaving us to wake up in a smoking crater. Tim has Final Fantasy Type-0. It has Final Fantasy in the name so you know it has crystals, magic mumbling, and an evil Empire. There’s a group of super powerful students call class zero. They do something and fight the empire

This week on Anime Pulse we got giant lizards stomping around, dumping radioactive water into the ocean, and hospital bills are too damn high. Up first Joseph is trying to get some answers as to why his bill for visit to an emergency room is going to send him to another, and Andrew gets hit with some anime swag and gets ready to delve into yet another Monster Hunter game. Then the industry news brings in topics about more fishy thefts, Aniplex being shit, and Mobile Suit Netflix. Lastly the previews

2021/04/21

Let’s talk tax evasion instead of movies. You know how any number of actors or musicians have tried to avoid taxes by not paying them? The director of today’s film decided to skip that and just give up his US citizenship. So we have Terry Gilliam’s Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus[2009]. It’s a story about an ancient monk who’s made deals with the devil throughout the ages. Culminating in him having one go at mortality and having to pay the devil with his daughter. It’s a lot of wild imagery and works

Manga Pulse 443: Spy Little

2021/04/20

We’ve got too many manga and the dump won’t take it. We’ve tried donating it and got cited for toxic waste. I supposed that there’s only one thing to do. Time to crack open a couple of them and start reviewing them. Then we can use them as kindling. Tim has a manhua with Peerless Little Doctor. Our protagonist, Dr. Pokey, is getting kicked out of medical school for fighting. Lucky for him he gets a magical tome which says he can still be a respected doctor by using his innate acupuncture skills. We

Being fans of MST3K and Rifftrax, we’ve naturally seen The Room. So when Greg Sestero wrote a book about the making of the movie and his friendship to the Latvian revenant known as Tommy Wiseau we listened to the audio book on a drive across the country. Which meant we had no choice but to watch the movie made and based off the book as well. This episode is a bit different in that we’re not just discussing the differences between a book and an adaptation so much as the differences between the

This week on Anime Pulse we got recycling with the power of a burning finger, being possessed by the ancient spirit of a samurai, and the most cultured talk about fan service in anime ever. Up first Joseph is surrounding himself with Tharjas, and Andrew's weather is hot and cold and then hot again. Afterwards there's news of another strange theft, China gets it's first new anime since 2007, and horrible women in a terrible anime wear sexy undergarments. Lastly the previews make a return as Joseph

2021/04/14

Let’s dig into the best year to ever have occurred in the history of our lives. At least that’s what we’re going to call it based solely on the films that came out that year. We’re not going for anything most people have heard of though, we’ve got The Miracle Fighters(1982). It’s a fantasy Kung Fu movie where we follow a kung fu master who gets betrayed, runs from the king, and raises a random child as his own. This kid then learns kung fu magic, which we dubbed FunKu, and competes to be

Two more for the wall. We’ve got two more slabs of paper pulp with words done printed on them for a trophy. Sometimes it feels like we’re never going to recapture that golden hunt, boyo. We’ll get there one day or die trying. Tim has Sleepless Domain. It’s an OEL which is apparently still a thing that companies publish. There are magical girls who protect a city at night from monsters. We follow a team of five who all die except for the water girl Undine. She discovers that there may be more

2021/04/10

This week on Anime Pulse we got card thieves, the most annoying characters in anime, and going topless to fight aliens. Up first IRL news sees Joseph reach Platinum rank in Magic the Gathering: Arena, and Andrew cooked up another amazing meal for his family. Afterwards the news only brings us two whole topics of discussion, as a man steals a million yen worth of trading cards and a plagiarizing anime gets canned. Lately the reviews show us out with Joseph using science to fight magic while falling

2021/04/07

There are some actors who are like the white rice of film. Then there are tried and true spices like garlic and you can never have too much garlic. The same could be said of one Nicolas Cage and we’ve got a dollar store can full in Willy’s Wonderland[2021]. Cage is the nameless protagonist who says nothing. A bold choice which leaves Cage to facially act his way through. He’s a stranger who has a mishap and the local mechanic offers to fix his car for a price. Stay the night in

Manga Pulse 441: Regenerated Manga

2021/04/06

How many manga can we cram into a single show? Could we do seven, fourteen, a hundred and eighty? Considering how long and rambly we get, it’s doubtful. We’re honestly lucky we get through the two we normally slate for these things. Speaking of two, that’s exactly what we brought in. Tim has Destroy All Humans They Can’t be Regenerated. A manga set in the late nineties based on Magic the Gathering. It employs actual cards and our hero is obsessed with playing black. This leads him to a

Cartoon Pulse: Episode One – The Cowardly Martians

2021/04/03

It's a brand new show! Joseph and Andrew have quit Anime reviews, and are moving to the West to tackle cartoons. In our inaugural episode we talk about our favorite Western cartoons, a scared dog, and Sponge Bob getting a little too spicy for 2021. Up first we delve straight into the reviews because that's what you're here for, as Joseph attempts to defend his home in the middle of nowhere and Andrew hangs out with some very ugly aliens. Afterwards the guys talk turkey about their offline lives,

Popcorn Pulse 145: The Last Forger

2021/03/31

Has it been awhile since we did a Travolta movie? Probably. No one cares for us to go back and look. We grabbed The Forger[2014] off the rack to see what travesty was produced. Travolta plays an Art Forger who’s son is dying of cancer. He calls in a favor from a mob boss to get out of jail early. This involves forging a Monet to steal and give to the mob. Travolta almost fits being a washed up wannabe artist who makes copies. Plus they don’t pull any punches and have the kid

Prepare for trouble. And you might as well make it a double. It’s been a long week since our last and that means it’s time to drink. If we have time we might fit in a little manga review or two as well. Tim has Doku Mushi – The Ruins Hotel. We have a group of paranormal investigators or something. They’re vaguely an occult club and they’re going to spend a couple of nights in an abandoned love hotel where shit went down. They find themselves locked in and someone might be trying to make them into a

2021/03/27

This week on Anime Pulse we got tons of trading cards, Netflix being utterly droll, and descending deeper into the Abyss. Up first Joseph is excited for his trip to Flavor Town, and Andrew stuffs his face full of pocky and melon pan while watching cute girls doing cute things. Then the industry news rolls in with Japan tracking your every movement, a life size and possible Rei figurine, and how to avoid being canceled by a Japanese artist. Lastly the reviews sound us off as Joseph watches a cute
