Ah, yes. The Green Demon Challenge. I think I'm more familiar with a variant where you try and get the red coin star in the level you're doing it in before the 1-up touches you. I'm not quite sure how you would turn it into a head-to-head competition (First to complete it? That might take...

I just wanted to say that I enjoyed the extended ending over the credits. I don't know if that's a gimmick you want to do every week, but I think it would be fun to see/hear again.

YES!! You did it! An entire episode on SPC!! (However, I guess that makes the email I sent you rather moot). I'm just so glad that it's finally being released on DVD. (Link: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-03-12/discotek-licenses-samurai-pizza-cats/cats-toninden-teyande) The mere...

I was a kid when Phantom Menace came out and I really liked it. Sure, I had seen the other Star Wars films, but this was the one I saw on the big screen, which made it cool. I remember it as the only film I went back to see multiple times (something I rarely do). For me, Jar Jar was only...

As best as I understand, it was a pretty straightforward kids show in Japan (makes sense, really). However, the dubbers didn't throw out the script because they never got one. All they got was the video to dub over, so they had to come up with scripts from scratch based on the visuals they...

I don't care what ANYBODY says, I want an episode (if not multiple episodes) devoted to Samurai Pizza Cats. And, while I'm dreaming, I want the entire series remastered put on DVD or Blu-Ray along with its Japanese original with subs. And a big screen television to play them on. With home...

Still sounds like you knew more than I did and that was enough. Other people have been suggesting Higurashi, but I think you need to prepare people before you recommend it. I've only read the manga adaptation and I got completely freaked out after about 6 volumes, never wanting to do...

So then you already knew the plot? Played the game or read about it or something like that before you ever saw it? I see. Yeah, I just went in blind, not expecting that kind of ending at all.

Okay, all I ever saw was the TV series (plus the 3 extra episodes) and I have to admit that I was pretty intrigued. But then it reached that third arc with the crow and it's like everything crumbled. For me, it seemed like all the time I had invested in what was going on was wasted because...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! I HATED AIR (the TV series)!! I know it has a massive cult following, but that ending made me rage (only one other anime has done that and that was Kino's Journey but I won't rant about that because it was pretty good. And definitely flew under the...

I just wanted to say that this was the first episode of Big Picture where I actually laughed. Not that the earlier ones were bad, per se (to be honest, I learned a ton with the whole Spider-man/Retcon dealio), but I seem to remember a more entertaining MovieBob in his earlier material. This...

I imagine that there's a lot of psychological marketing malarkey going on here. The opening animation tends to have a nice budget so they try to make it as engaging and compelling as possible to get people to keep watching. Despite the fact that all of these series are made by different people...

Dangit, you beat me to the punch. I also thought of that when he brought it up. Huh? Okay, I admit that I really haven't watched G Gundam but I came away with the idea that it that was pretty weak. Such diverging opinions.
