Popcorn Pulse 173: Batspeak

What’s finally darker than the stool of someone with an ulcer? The Batman[2022]. We chose it because of feedback and funding from listeners like you! It also gave us an excuse to help maximize our SEO by picking something that’s up at the top of search terms. Weeks later. Either way, the studio has listened to the fans. They’ve stopped making campy batmen which wear neon capes, invent new dances, and chase after a carpet coated sedan with whiskers. We get the dark and gritty Batman we’ve all been dying to seen. So dark that all the flashlights have become incandescent lights and Bats mumbles angrily from the shadows. Speaking … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 173: Batspeak"

Popcorn Pulse 172: Super Structure

Do you ever feel like you fell into a time warp? Wildly polarized politics? Inflation that’s riding a rocket sled? A Roland Emerich movie in the theater? What’s next, people talking about Jumanji? Yes, we’re doing Moonfall[2022]. That’s right, mister disaster porn himself has made a movie that no one heard about. It went, as we’ll call it in a couple of years, straight to theater. It had less marketing than a presidential wet fart in front of the pope and stinks just as bad. There’s a plot about nano-machine powered AI trying to smother the moon so it’ll kill humans because it failed to wipe out our ancient ancestors … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 172: Super Structure"

Manga Pulse 467: Madk Songk

What’s better than having a flat tire? Well, yes, not having a flat tire. How about two flat tires? That way you can replace both and not feel like you’re simply wasting a tire. You see, are recommended to be kept as a pair. So if you have one damaged you should replace the other as a new one would be slightly worn over the old one. This is hard on differentials and can cause damage over time. Now that we’ve explained the none joke, we’ll introduce our manga. Tim has Song of the Night Walkers.

Popcorn Pulse 171: Potter Potion

What happens when you don’t pick a film until the last minute? Wild guesses and titles are thrown out. It’s like a bingo night where everyone’s deaf, the caller is reading from the phone book, and no one is a winner. That’s how we end up with movie picks like Love Potion No 9(1992). Tate Donovan is a loser who’s got a crush on Sandra Bullock who is also a loser. This sort of changes when he gets a love potion from a gypsy. He manages to isolate the compound and distill it down.

Popcorn Pulse 170: King’s Ghost

Wake up weaboos, we got a Japanese movie for you to enjoy. It’s what happens when a director who’s strictly worked in Japan makes a foray into the west.

Prisoners of the Ghostland[2021] is set in post apocalyptic future Jap-America. Where cowboys and samurai rule.

There’s a variety of articles and news to discuss from big companies like NVIDIA and Microsoft getting hacked, Netflix and Amazon really trying to make the video game thing happen, to more casual topics like a list of top Bioware games and a more questionable list of top “losers” in Video Games.

Manga Pulse 465: Servant Seduction

Double double, review some trouble. Pickup two manga and prepare for scrungle. This is why you invest in a good rhyming dictionary and don’t rely on some weird website that’s user generated and maintained. Because then the porn bots get in there and muddle it all up with gibberish. Tim has Servant X Service. Which is a brick of a manga that’s done in 4koma style. Unlike many of those we’ve reviewed, this has something of a plot. It’s about people working in the public service sector of Japan. It starts off with characters who are a bit one note and transitions into something of a office romance comedy. It … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 465: Servant Seduction"

Popcorn Pulse 169: Untouchable State

Twice as nice for have the price. That’s our movie review deal and you’re getting whether you like it or not. We’re taking a trip back to the days where people went over to stores to rent movies for a couple of days. This is because movies hated us just as much but they still needed our money. And they couldn’t just hook up the milking machine like they do now. That’s right, the nineties which people swear is the worst decade but only because they preferred the eighties. We dual review the Costner vehicle, Untouchables(1987). It’s about the kooky time when America decided that having fun should be illegal. … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 169: Untouchable State"

Manga Pulse 464: Dissolving Witch

Well the request start coming and they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop…brrrrrttt. Sorry. The vinyl was stuck again. That’s what happens when you buy your record player off of alibaba. I guess it’s back to eBay and estate sales because I’m not buying a nearly two thousand dollar Technics turntable. I don’t care what the tweed wearing audiophile who has been saving up for a trip to Singapore says. Tim has Burn the Witch. It’s Tite Kubo taking a swing at something that’s not Bleach. There are Witches, I guess, and they kill dragons. See dragons are everywhere … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 464: Dissolving Witch"

Popcorn Pulse 168: Bandit Smokes

Put your ears on and grow out the porn-stache. We’ve dipped into that hazy era known as the seventies. Who better to guide us all through that wild time than Burt Reynolds? Give him a pair of smoked aviators, a classic muscle car, a song written for a film and you’ve got a movie. Thus we have the classic Smokey and the Bandit(1977). The plot is that a Texas oil baron and his son bet that Burt can’t get an order of Coors to them within twenty eight hours. Because there was once a time when that beer, now synonymous with terrible American beer, was hard to get in some … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 168: Bandit Smokes"

Manga Pulse 463: Samwise Ninja

What’s this? I don’t know if it’s the booze or not but I’m seeing double. Two manga reviews in the same show? We take the heavy effort of picking up the books, reading them, then scrambling to get the equipment fired up and working. We might also develop some sort of opinion about them and apply a rating. Once we’ve wandered off into the weeds so far we’re finding golf balls. Tim has Ninja Slayer Kills. A manga which has a wild backstory we dig into a little within the show. The face of it is mostly straight forward. Tokyo of the future is suddenly plagued by the resurrected spirits … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 463: Samwise Ninja"

Manga Pulse 462: Burrito Hunting

Let’s see. Bills. Junk mail. Offers to buy a house the show doesn’t own. Vote Romney for President? How long has it been since we’ve looked at our inbox proper? Not that long because we have some requests which we address. And much quicker than we do letters to the editor for some defunct BDSM magazine we keep getting. Tim has Boruto. The sequel to Naruto that no one asked for. Set years after Naruto has gotten the spot as hokage and married Hinata. Also they have kids and the one named Boruto doesn’t want to be hokage.

Popcorn Pulse 166: Matrix Debt

Just like the Twin Galaxies we hold absolutely all the world records. Unsurprisingly they are all related to our own show. Most consecutive episodes of Popcorn Pulse? For the one hundredth and sixty sixth time it goes to us…us! Take that, podcasts which aren’t even in the running. We decided that we’d go to a modern release with Matrix Resurrections[2022]. Did you guess it would be garbage? Then pat yourself on the back for your sudden burgeoning psychic abilities or just having pattern recognition.

Manga Pulse 461: Ugly Black

Warning, awkward audio dips as we kept looking away from the mics. We made some adjustments to the output but it’s still going to be off a bit. Let’s say, hypothetically, you wanted to listen to a show. Also hypothetically, you had access to two of the most hinged people on the internet? Yes, I said hinged. These men, titans among capybaras, are the polar opposite of unhinged. They might even be standing right next to based. Also they have a pair of manga with reviews of each for you to enjoy.

Manga Pulse 460: Dog Baby

There are twin cities out there. You have to be careful though because there are fraternal and paternal. Fraternal twin cities share a geography only. Paternal twin cities are ones that were originally founded by the same person but divided because of prohibition or some similar legal disagreement. Which is why New York and Los Angeles are so far apart. New York decided that living in a hole with rats was a perfectly fine core personality trait. Meanwhile LA disagreed and believed that being unable to drive was more important. So they broke apart and drifted off to the west coast. This leads us to a twin manga review.
