Hey, I can hear the music that you’re listening to down there. Knock three times on the ceiling if you want a review. Was that a thump or a shout? Either way, we’re interpreting that as a sign to go forward with a couple of movie reviews. We kick off with a movie from the same people that can’t stop making the same phone over and over, The Greatest Beer Run Ever[2022]. It’s based on a true story about a dude from New York.

How many demons can disco on the head of an angry flea? We’re going to isolate a flea and trap it in a summoning circle and find out. Oh shit. It turns out Himalayan sea salt only makes the demons angry. Now they’re busy revising HOA rules and running for PTA boards. Well, at least we’ve got manga to talk about. So let’s do a sequel with Tim and YashaHime. You remember Inuyasha right? Well twenty years later, and authored by someone else under Takahashi’s permission, there’s a girl. She’s some sort of protagonist who whines about her eyes being different and fighting ghosts. Then a portal opens up and … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 485: Slayer Hime"

The weather outside is delightful but the fire is so frightful. As long as you tune into this show you can find some solace from the wonderful snow that you’re probably experiencing in the Northern Hemisphere. The people who claim to live south of the equator are all paid actors funded by the CIA and MI6. Keep away from the psyop with a double does of manga reviews.

There’s still a whole lot of bargain bin DVDs sitting around for us to tackle. Only two movies were duplicated and we all ready did Poker Night. So we finally got down to Blood Money[2012]. It features Mr Worldwide himself, Pitbull. For about three minutes. Two of those are part of one of his songs though! The rest is an incomprehensible plot where an assassin with magic Oakleys kills people. So his boss can run cocaine into China.

What what, ol chap? You were mumbling something about a man-ga? A pod-cast? I swear the meals they serve in the diner car have always turned. How else can you explain these strange dreams of a world where man can travel the globe in the span of mere days? And all the while communicating freely with anyone else within seconds. Bad kipper is my reckoning. I’m going back to my bunk and we should arrive within the Orient on the morrow. Speaking of, Tim has Orient. In a world where Oni are worshipped as gods, samurai are outlawed. Also, samurai is used as an insult and kids growing up make … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 483: Oriental Kitties are Racist"

We made it through No Nuts November. Time to crack open that preservative jar and put them back in the sack. Maybe after a good squeeze to get that nut juice out. It’s the time of year when the collectors come around to top of their “almond milk” canisters and it fetches a fair trade price. On with the manga. Tim has a recommendation in The Best Smell. We have mister Nose and mister Lemon. Nose wakes up when someone kisses him on the cheek. He uses his ability of super smell to hunt down the boy and confront Lemon.

The DC movie universe is still a thing. It’s easy to forget that they also make movies. Considering the seventeen hour miniseries they re-re-re-master from a long movie. They recently released something that’s related to another of their movies which was good. So we’ve got Black Adam[2022]. We kick off with ten minutes of backstory about Fake-landia.

It’s the holidays, again. We hope you’ve loaded up on your favorite pies and festive sides. Also, if you’re one of those weird folks who hates potatoes AND stuffing. Then we hope you find religion. Because you need guidance and we can’t help you. Well, Weltall might be able to help. With the assistance of a pocket watch, a dark room, and liberal amount of liquor.

It’s still season of the spookiness when we recorded, on Halloween no less. The spirit of Tim Burton’s Hot Topic merchandise was strong with us. Which compelled us to do one last joint watch of a horror movie. This one from a couple of years ago about a supernatural house where a child ends up possessed. That doesn’t really narrow it down to anything though. We did Winchester[2018]. If you’ve ever read anything about Americana or hauntings, you’ve probably come across the Winchester house. Built by the heir to the Winchester fortune, it’s remarked for odd architecture. Perfect for a horror movie where Sara Winchester channels ghosts who describe the … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 185: Strange Man"

Hey there. Did you know that our episodes often come with reviews? Two of them, if you can believe it. You should believe it because we don’t lie. Unless we’re running for congress. Then we’re going to offer you blowjob robots that crap money. We like to pull out all the stops when we’re campaigning. Even if it makes the intersections far more dangerous. Tim has Olgami. What do you do when you’re a sexy taxi driver in Korea? You drive assholes around and try not to yell at the customers. Life gets pretty boring until you run into a vampire at your church who may be eating people. Even … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 480: Olga’s Syrup"

It’s still October when we recorded this so we had to do something scary and spooky. What could be scarier than old memes turned into a movie? How about a direct to cable network movie on the BET network? Boo! Got you good you fuckers. Yes, we have a movie based on a dead meme, Karen[2021]. Yes, there is a titular antagonist named Karen. She gets angry when our protagonists, an African-american couple, move in. Karen does a lot of things ripped directly from the headlines from the past couple of years.

This week on Anime Pulse I'm alone and frightened. Joseph has gotten into the Halloween spirit and ghosted me (due to CO̶̰̯̩̔̒́͗̾͜VID). There's talk of anime movies, new fantasy anime on the way, the Simpsons still existing and much more. For community I ask you what horror themed anime you can come up with but I discover in my previews, that the true h̴̻̩͖̳͆orror is the garbage romc̶̳̍̽̉͋ͅò̷̱͓̝̅̊͝m anime I watched along the way.

Gather up your rayon capes. Put on the elastic masks with the sharp mouth slot. And steal the classic Mickey D’s treat buckets from those obsessive collectors. It’s the spooky season and that means manga featuring all sorts of skellingtons and bones and all that autumn jazz. Or we might have just incidentally found manga that sort of fits by happenstance. Tim has Pumpkin Night. A girl gets friended by someone in a pumpkin mask while home alone. Then she gets a threat of direct message. So far, normal for most of social media.

Have you ever been driving through East South Dale while houses go up for sale? Meet a girl while selling CDs and you let her take a ride in your Caddy? What if that Caddy had fucked that girl?

Like a little white rabbit, we’re late. But that’s just because we prefer it raw rather than wrapped. Caseless bratwurst is the tastiest and don’t let the haters tell you differently. There is a slight chance of food poisoning though. Especially if the cart you’re buying from is currently being raided by the FDA. Can’t beat the “going out of business because of the raid” deals though. Tim has Deathco. Do you like assassins? How about costumes that look like they’re from the sixties? Then this manga is probably right up your alley, two people besides Tim that have such a niche. We get introduced to a pair of yakuza … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 478: 100 Deaths"

Especially if the social media hype has gotten to you. Then you watched it and promptly forgot about it. Which is how Tim and Weltall became probably the last two people in the world to bother watching a Netflix original movie that came out months ago.

In spite of living in California where there’s state provided health insurance. … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 182: Purple Hook"

This week on Anime Pulse we got a Japanese mayor who moonlights as the Punisher, a RomCom that doesn't cause massive cases of cringe, and anime that inspired us to become more than we were.

It’s been convention time around here. That means plenty of overpriced snacks from the land of the rising sun. Oddball panels and events. Wide range of cosplay from off the rack to professional grade. It also means manga grab bags are up for sale. And at the end of the con, they’re at their cheapest and prime for review material.

There will be no drinks or snacks served and the dining car is closed. Take your meds and strap in. We’ve got Bullet Train[2022] with Brad Pitt.

We don’t have a lot of thoughts in the head today. It’s probably all those fumes from trying to strike oil out in the field so we don’t have to work anymore. That or it was getting beer bottles thrown at our head from digging in some random field looking for oil. Turns out property owners don’t care for trespassers. At least we’ll always have out manga. Tim has The Knight of Embers. There’s some group of heroes called knights who have people try out to join their organization.
