Here’s some questions I’ve received in the past week or so, with replies. With only five minutes to spare before I set myself on fire in protest of something as of yet undetermined, I chose the inquiries that could be answered as easily as possible. So, for those who sent in well thought out questions that really inspired debate, the joke’s on you!
Michael M.: I’m sure someone else has suggested this to you already, but you should give the new Hulk cereal a look as something you might want to review. It’s absolutely…without a doubt…the WORST CEREAL EVER! It’s freakin’ POPS! and Lucky Charm’s marshmallows put together! It’s terrible! Awful! Worse than anything that has come before, or that shall come after! It’s just plain shitty.
REPLY: I’ve actually reviewed this one — well, The Hulk Pinata did, at least. I’m not sure I’d call it ‘awful,’ being a Corn Pops fan and all, but it’s certainly an odd mix.
Ben: just writing to let you know that i think your site is great. I’ve enclosed a picture of rawhead rex, and i was wondering, is it just me, or is that the actor’s mouth/face behind rex’s latex teeth? is it like this throughout the film? i thought i could see the same clenched teeth in other stills as well. was this noticeable? just curious, and obviously with a lot of free time. keep up the good work!
REPLY: (the picture in question can be found here) You couldn’t really see the actor’s head throughout the whole movie, but there were other goofs. In the scene where Rex shakes the trailer homes and rips out the pretty girl’s tits, they forgot to fit his monster gloves on. He goes through the whole sequence with very undevilish human hands.
Jonathan B.: Well, I really love all your cereal reviews, but I have a suggestion for you when you pull out old cereals: To make them taste fresh again, pour out a lot of them on a cookie sheet and put it in the oven for 10 to 20 minutes. It’ll taste pretty fresh again! I realized this as a young lad when the only thing left to eat was some cereal from long ago that had comics in the fold on the back of the box, and I was hungry.
REPLY: Sounds good to me — next time I want to eat decade old cereal, I’ll toast it in the oven first. Also: a lot of people have e-mailed about another of Ralston’s similar brands, Addams Family Cereal. I’ve actually got a box right here, and it’s extremely terrible — far worse than the ones reviewed on the site. Keeping with the company’s theme of peddling toys to compensate for shitty food, it came with a Fester Addams flashlight shrink-wrapped onto the box. Almost made up for it, but not really.
Adam: Not sure if you know about these already but I found these on a web site. A toy company called Reel is making Gremlin action figures that are supposed to come out soon. Stripe and Brain Gremlin look pretty cool in my opinion. Here is the link: Gremlins Figures For Sale.
REPLY: Awesome. Everything about Gremlins is holy to me, and I’m glad to see that Gizmo and friends weren’t forgotten with today’s retro craze.
Will: Did He-Man have a horse? I swear I had one when I was younger, but i can’t find it now.
REPLY: He-Man indeed had a horse. Sort of. It was more like a robot shaped vaguely like a horse with a gun coming out its ass along with the usual tail. Here’s a pic:
It’s one of the most common MOTU vehicle toys, and loose editions cost next to nothing.
David E.: Hi, still loving the site. I know you’ve probably seen the movie “the Dawn of the Dead” at least once, but my friends and I watched it last night and it seemed like the perfect movie to review on your site. It has freedom fighters. Fighting zombies. In a mall. In the 1980’s (possibly late 70s). And if you can hang on until the end, an army of Hell’s Angels bikers have an extended fight with the zombies that includes multiple pies being thrown into the zombies’ face and a couple even being hosed down by seltzer. Then their heads get blown off. It’s truly an amazing film if you don’t remember it. It also features the same zombies getting killed over and over (not enough different extras) and one extra even laughing as he is getting shot. Truly a classic.
REPLY: Dawn of the Dead is just about the most perfect horror movie you’ll ever see, seriously. I picked it up years back not knowing a thing about the lore, and I was totally surprised with how great the story was. It’s legitimately scary, has decent effects, likable characters, and shitloads of zombies and gore. More so than anything else, it takes the idea of ’suspense’ to whole new levels — it’s almost difficult to sit through because it’s so suspenseful. If anyone out there hasn’t seen it, make sure ya do.
That’s all for now. Byyyyeee.
