Pete and Pete is on dvd and it didn't make headlines? My favorite episode was the Halloween one with the gang that wore pumpkins on their heads. Does anyone know the name of the villain that used paper as a weapon? Paper cut kid or something like that.

I just remember that crazy Artie guy because we had a neighbor who looked like him...and we found out in a really funny/creepy way that he didn't want to be called that.

Did you get drunk at Walmart? Or did you get drunk before you went shopping? That actually sounds like a good idea to make shopping more bearable, but then again I'd probably end up buying my niece a cat sweater.

Enjoying the Beavis and Butthead day on Comedy Central and MTV2 then switching gears to Re-Animator and Land of the Dead. Nothing like a nice Saturday at home

Chestnuts roasted by mike @ 11/05/2005 09:16 PM EST

Ya, is there a reason why there showing B&B on cmedy central now. The movie was on MTV today. I totally forgot who Stewert was until today!

RAS: Is The Last Starfighter the one where the hick boy gets the high score on an arcade game so the aliens who created the game come and abduct him to take him to their homeworld where he has to use his video game skills to fight a real alien invading force? Wow - that was a long sentence. On a similar note, I've been really wanting to watch The Wizard recently but I haven't had the ambition to go out and look for it at a video rental store.

Chestnuts roasted by Gozer @ 11/05/2005 09:22 PM EST

They should make the Savage-Pack It would be a two-pack DVD set containing with The Wizard and Little Monsters.

Chestnuts roasted by D-MAN @ 11/05/2005 09:26 PM EST

D-Man

They are showing it because the DVD comes out Tuesday for the Mike Judge Collection. They have an infomercial on MTV2 now with Billy Dee Williams (god) as the host

This is really random...

I have a question about a movie, and I could post it over at IMDB, but I think you guys will be more helpful. It's been forever since I saw it, so I might be getting some details wrong. Please Help!!

You know the Invaders from Mars movie (1986)? You know how at the end the kid wakes up and he thinks it's a dream, but then he sees the glowy glow outside, and it it supposed to be like it is happening for real? Well, I KNOW I remember it ending a different way, when I saw it as a kid. I remember the kid wakes up and thinks "Whew, it was all a dream!" then he looks for his lucky penny, and IT'S GONE because he had used it to kill the Martians or something. So it WASN'T a dream.

I distinctly remember this ending, and it confused me when I saw it again several years ago, because it was not the same as I remembered it. Also, I have a really good imagination AND the Martians scared me to death, so I might have refused to watch the ending and just made it up myself. My brother makes fun of me, so PLEASE tell me if anyone else remembers this. I read that there was a different ending on the UK version, but it still wasn't the same as I remembered.

If I did make it up...don't you think it's a way better ending!?

Thanks for the help.

Hey Matt I ran into an old friend of yours. There's a picture of you on an older article to when you went to Atlantic City for your birthday and you've got one of these over your hand. I was reading the article and wondering where I'd seen it before and then realized I had one just like it along with a cart full of other puppets.

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 11/05/2005 09:52 PM EST

Mike- You can buy all the episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark on ebay for like 40-50 bucks. I bought a dvd-r set of em last year and they're all really good quality. There's 91 episodes so I still haven't gotten through the entire series, but it still rocks to be able to bust them out whenever I'm in sick or relatives are over. P.S. has anyone played Guitar Hero yet? It's SUPER awesome.

Chestnuts roasted by Eddie Lightning Frog @ 11/05/2005 10:04 PM EST

Are you serious 91 episodes- How come I could only remember like five of them....dam Budweiser.

Chestnuts roasted by D-MAN @ 11/05/2005 10:15 PM EST

Oh yeah Diego is gunna kill Diaz. anyone else watch UFC-there showin some really good fights on Spike T.V. tonight.

Chestnuts roasted by D-MAN @ 11/05/2005 10:23 PM EST

I got Jones Holiday pack today. I'm not going to critique it cause Matt does those things better, but I have to say they're different. And with a Spork!

Chestnuts roasted by kb @ 11/05/2005 10:29 PM EST

Invader, you're forgetting The Outer Limits. Remeber the one where if you listened to the one CD you got turned into an alien? Good times, good times.

Wow - RAS mentioned Gremlins and D-MAN mentioned Little Monsters. Come on guys - we only need one more Howie Mandel movie reference for the trifecta! Here's the hard part though - it's gotta be a movie, not Bobby's World....

Chestnuts roasted by Gozer @ 11/05/2005 10:31 PM EST

Holy Cow-I just had a flashback Does anyone remember that movie Munchie- OH MY GOD. It was a little puppet monster thing in a leather jacket and Don Delloise was the voice...I have got to re-visit that crazyness again!!

Chestnuts roasted by D-MAN @ 11/05/2005 10:51 PM EST

Hey I just IMDB'd Howie Mandell, I didn't know he was a voice in Muppet Babies, anyone know if that's every gonna come out on dvd? I think I remember some stuffed animals coming with dvds when I worked at KB last year, but I don't think I've ever seen a box set or anything...

Chestnuts roasted by Battlesnake @ 11/05/2005 10:53 PM EST

Oh great. I didnt have to look any further but here. Looks like you already have a review on Munchie Strikes Back!!-didn't even know the fuker struk back-THIS IS GOING TO BE A TREAT!!

Chestnuts roasted by D-MAN @ 11/05/2005 10:54 PM EST

Jeff Mack -
I've lived in Oakland and Point Breeze, and now I live in Edgewood. Where are you getting your MFA? I didn't go to college here, but I know 2 professors at Pitt.

Chestnuts roasted by Jessica Marie @ 11/05/2005 11:02 PM EST

Love the Munchie Strikes back review-complete with the pics and clips (who could ask for more)I almost forgot what that little thing looked like! You got to wonder how awkward the moment was for the person who had to quietly change Munchie into his outfits.

Chestnuts roasted by D_MAN @ 11/05/2005 11:09 PM EST

They're closing out Halloween Peeps for 25c a pack here in Jacksonville FL! Get them while they last... Know what movie I watched tonight for the first time in like 10 years? F/X. God that movie is great!

Chestnuts roasted by Another Matt @ 11/05/2005 11:21 PM EST

At the Target, they're closing out the Peeps, is what I meant.

Chestnuts roasted by Another Matt @ 11/05/2005 11:21 PM EST

Finally got around to watching Blink's Greatest Hits DVD. They included only the original cut of Stay Together for the Kids, which is pretty interesting to say the least. I already had the complete Urethra Saga so I only needed it for the s/t era videos.

Another Girl Another Planet is good, but Not Now has yet to grow on me. It seems like Tom dominated the last chapter of Blink's career which is kinda only fair I guess. Before All the Small Things I was afraid they'd break up because Tom never got a single. Think about it, M+Ms, Dammit, Josie, What's My Age Again?. And then Tom finally got a single and it went to #1. The s/t really is Tom-dominated, but oddly it's my fav.

I'm so much more of a Mark guy. I hope Plus 44's vocals are evenly distributed.

Nickelodeon showed The Outer Limits? And here I thought it was a kids channel... (even if they did, I never watched it. I hardly watched Are You Afraid of The Dark either cause I got scared easily)

I do remember them showing The Tomorrow People, though. Not the 60's version, but some sort of obscure revival, I think.

Chestnuts roasted by Invader Norbert @ 11/06/2005 01:01 AM EST

D-MAN- Did you actually like Munchie? I couldn't get through that movie without passing out... and that's /with/ pizza and soda. If you want a really awesome Dom Deluise movie then check out the first Skateboard Kid. He voices a magical flying skateboard that's chock-full of attitude. And if that's not enough there's a music video at the end of the film (vhs version) starring a bunch of 13 yr olds playing thrash music.

Chestnuts roasted by Eddie Lightning Frog @ 11/06/2005 01:04 AM EST

I'm still waiting for a nice DVD release of "Salute Your Shorts". We can all use more Donkey Lips in our lives

Chestnuts roasted by Mike F @ 11/06/2005 01:24 AM EST

Eddie- I don't even remember the movie, I just have the image of that little moster in my head. A talking stakeboard huh, jeez, why the hell was Deluise a voice for these ideas. What was next "Hero" starring Don Deluise as the sandwich with a heart of gold.

Chestnuts roasted by D_MAN @ 11/06/2005 01:25 AM EST

There is no logic behind TeeNick because NO TEENS WATCH NICK.

Chestnuts roasted by Mars @ 11/06/2005 01:34 AM EST

hahahah That movie would ROCK. He can enter a huge rap competition for some kid that has to keep him in the hood of his sweatshirt.

Chestnuts roasted by Eddie Lightning Frog @ 11/06/2005 01:48 AM EST

So it would be the kid's body with a sandwich head?-I LOVE IT!

I just finished my outline for my third speech (in my speech class), and now I'm off to study for my two huge tests on Monday. Boo! Some Saturday night... I wish I was here with you talking about classic Nickelodeon. Awesome- this is why you're my people. My copy of Pete and Pete 2 arrived yesterday, and it's calling my name, but I just don't have the time yet. I really can't wait for future DVD releases, for the stuff I like even MORE. So good.

Chestnuts roasted by Rainbowfeet @ 11/06/2005 02:49 AM EST

I miss Snick. Thank goodness I taped so damn much of it. Bwahahaha! Most of my Saturday was spent working at the Arcade trying to whore all the leftover Halloween toys at the ticket counter. The rest of the weekend will be spent working on important stuff like Nanowrimo and other bad things no one will read.

Chestnuts roasted by Mystie @ 11/06/2005 04:08 AM EST

I'm still waiting for the You Can't Do that on TV DVDs....

Chestnuts roasted by Cameron T. @ 11/06/2005 06:20 AM EST

Legends of the Hidden Temple was always my favorite show on nick. Click my name for a reveiw of the show on pop arena.com

Chestnuts roasted by Darth Poop @ 11/06/2005 11:23 AM EST

Ah Nick. I used to love Nickelodeon. I loved Salute Your Shorts, Hidden Temple, Wild and Crazy Kids, early All That, and Clarissa Explains it All. I had a crush on Melissa Joan Hart for a long time and still do.

I just ate 'The Batman' cereal. Exactly like Oreo O's but bat shaped cereal bits. Probably see a review for it here in a few years. Haha.

Wish I was here last night. Work. Boo.

No crazy things at my grocery store where I work. Halloween night we put up Christmas candy that's it.

Can't wait for December for those advent calendars. One of the things that make it easier going through the winter month.

Later.

Chestnuts roasted by Chris @ 11/06/2005 01:28 PM EST

Matt- I finally escaped the little man from the draft board! I just thought that you would like to know that. I think we all know of my battles with the little man from the draft board and now the world can breath a sigh of releif. WAIT! No it can't be! The little man from the draft board! But who was it that I pushed off the train in Dayr az Zawr! A gun! No! Stop! Ahhh!

Chestnuts roasted by Darth Poop @ 11/06/2005 03:27 PM EST

Ok, who else just realized that Matt's tagline for this thread "It's SNT...delicious!" was a reference to the old Alpha-Bits jingle?

Chestnuts roasted by Invader Norbert @ 11/06/2005 04:17 PM EST

Invader Norbert: That's the exact SNICK line-up that rocked my world back in tha day also! Ahhh, old school Nick- anything better? I remember the happy day I finally went to Florida and SAW Nickelodeon Studios- I almost cried when I saw the slime fountain.

"Legends of the Hidden Temple" STILL comes on regularly in Korea! I loved watching it when I was over there.

Chestnuts roasted by Muppet Baby @ 11/06/2005 07:56 PM EST

legends of the hidden temple, guts and double dare are still on a channel called "GAS". i dont know what it stands for. i get it on digital cable in philly. did anyone get the new ducktales dvd?

Chestnuts roasted by pdac @ 11/06/2005 08:02 PM EST

I want that Duck Tales DVD! That show is funnier now than it was back when I was four,now that I understand economics and what a capitalist pig Scrooge is. I mean,he swims in money!

Chestnuts roasted by Suren @ 11/06/2005 08:20 PM EST

Anyone else watch Simpsons Treehouse of horror number... this year's?

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 11/06/2005 08:32 PM EST

Yeah, I'm definately looking forward to the "Ducktails" and "Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers" sets. I don't know if they'd do any extras, but it would be worth it for just for the memories.

Speaking of memories, I made a great find at the grocery store where I work today - I found the video for "Christmas at Sesame Street." You want to talk about taking you back. The tape was released in 1987 (according to the box), but I think the special may be a little older (Mr. Hooper is in it and very much alive). If you can find it, I recommend it. It's really sweet, has some hilarious segments (like Bert and Ernie doing a charming "Gift of the Magi"-esque present exchange), and they even let Oscar sing "I Hate Christmas."

Chestnuts roasted by starwenn @ 11/06/2005 08:40 PM EST

Matt, your review on the halloween soda is listed on jones' website, you probably knew that. Still, pretty cool.

Chestnuts roasted by kb @ 11/06/2005 09:33 PM EST

Yes. I have the green vhs tape Christmas Eve on Sesame Street too, and it's becoma a tradition for me to watch it on Christmas Eve. It's Awesome. I love the beginning when they do the slingshot on iceskates and Oscar gets whipped through the wall and down the stairs! Then Cookie Monster keeps trying to contact santa, but eats all his writing utensils and telephone. Fuck yea.

Chestnuts roasted by Mattman @ 11/06/2005 09:34 PM EST

GAS = Games And Sports. I had the option of getting that channel with a bunch of crappy channels instead of more movie channels when I first got our digital cable. I'm not sure if I made the right choice....

Chestnuts roasted by Gozer @ 11/06/2005 09:38 PM EST

Saturday morning cartoons are gone as we know it!! remember when the networks produced their own programming?! Now, CBS borrows from Nickelodeon/Nick Jr., ABC borrows from Disney/Playhouse Disney, and NBC...well, NBC gave up in the early '90s. They don't even have cartoons anymore. Fox is the only one that still produces their own stuff, besides the lesser networks (WB and UPN).

You know you're getting older when stuff like this really bothers you.
