Ok, look. You see that sword over there? Yeah, the one stuck in that rock? Go over there and give it a little tug and come right back for your free meat pie. Now, you’ll see some guys put on a whole show. They’ll flail and flop around, maybe grunt or yell while they’re doing it. They crowd laughs but I’m not throwing in anything else just because you get them riled up. Got it, little Arthur? So we have King Arthur[2004]. You probably don’t remember this movie. Bruckheimer’s production company was riding high on the success of some mid Atlantic movie about shipping boats. So they naturally did a … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 205: Arthur’s Phallus"

Oh my goodness, things are moving along again. That means a post is due. Have we done something about leaves being raked? Does that work for anything? No? Crap. We’ll cut right to the brass tacks then. This is a manga show and we’ve managed to read and produce a review for two. We hope you’ll listen, like, subscribe, and send two box tops plus proof of purchase along with a check for shipping to claim your prize. Tim has Hatarakanai Futari. It’s about a pair of siblings who are shut ins that do fuck all. Focused mostly on the sister, Haruko. The parents are alive and working to get … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 513: MachFut"

Manga Pulse 513: MachFut

Two households, both alike in dignity. In fat America, where we lay our scene. And that’s about all we can figure to work in a Shakespeare reference in the few minutes we knock these out. Besides we wanted to get a little classy before we tackle an A24 movie. Yup, we watched Civil War[2024]. If you’ve seen the trailers, then you’ve got some expectations as to what we’re in for. War scenes, bad things happening, and lots of explosions. Instead, you’re treated to a civil war in the US happening because reasons. And we follow ‘journalists’ as they try and get to the White House to get an interview with … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 219: Freeway Wars"

Popcorn Pulse 219: Freeway Wars

This week on Anime Pulse we got more previews, attacking someone over spoilers, and 100 year anniversaries. Up first Joseph quickly mentions his attendance at the 100 year anniversary for is other job, before Andrew goes into community with a question about anime eyes. Then in the industry news Andrew takes it away with a stinky Yu-Gi-Oh event, and a man who got a little too heated after Oshi no Ko was spoiled for him. And finally in the second round of previews Joseph finds himself isekai'd to another world where he becomes young again and begins attending a magical high school, but Andrew on the other hand breaks wind as his family mission has him become a fable.

Episode 851: Spring 2024 Previews #2

If you’re reading this then you’re probably hearing about all the issues on website posts. Which is ironic because the only way this shows up is that the issues are resolved. One of those kind of funny paradoxes where you get to hear about it for the next couple of episodes now that it’s all done. It’s kind of like getting the results back from a cancer screening after you’ve already had surgery to remove a growth. If it helps, we’ve been keeping up with the recordings at least so we have manga. Tim has Since the Red Moon Appeared. The title is a bit explanatory. Some red moon events … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 512: Red Secretary"

Manga Pulse 512: Red Secretary

Everyone has heard the word in Hollywood. That word is exploitation and shady sexual favors. Wait, that’s not a word. The word is remake. That thing we’ve been complaining about long enough to wear out a couple of presidents. Hollywood is nothing if not persistent in their endeavor. Once they’ve bit down they will do a death roll until everybody has drowned. So we’re talking about a remake with Road House[2024]. Jake Gyllenhaal is literally not me as a replacement for Patrick Swayze. Whereas Swayze was a vaguely unexplained tough guy, Gyllenhaal is a disgraced MMA fighter. He gets randomly gets found by a small bar owner from the Florida … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 218: Cruel Road"
