Hey You Pikachu

hy pikachu

I can’t lie, until randomly at my job that isn’t the blog, I forgot this game pretty much existed. Once I recalled it, I had to think to a time way back to when there were only 151 Pokemon and Pokemon: The First Movie was THE movie in my school and news of Pokemon 2000 was the equivalent of Star Wars hype. But, I digress… Hey You Pikachu was a game for the Nintendo 64 with a lot of ambition. Requiring a special microphone attachment for the N64 controller, you talked to Pikachu and had him to command and essentially lived your own little Pokemon fantasy. As far as I’m aware of, there was no battling, so there goes a huge chunk of that fantasy. I have to be 100% honest, I’ve never seen this game in person actually really work. Talking to Pikachu became ultra frustrating super quickly because the controller itself was nearly useless and the entire game was trying to talk. When you’d get Pikachu to follow your instructions it was so cool, but then enjoy the 15-20 minutes it took for his next command to register. I’ve seen people pitch hissy fits and whip there controllers over this game. Simply put. I can’t recommend this game to anyone. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Devil’s Rejects (2005)

A Rob Zombie movie and a direct sequel to House of 1000 Corpses is the store of the Firefly family and their house being raided by the police. After a grand shootout, mama firefly is caught, a man is dead and Baby (Sheri Moon Zombie) and Otis (Bill Moseley) are on the run.

They quickly call their father, Captain Spaulding (Sid Haig) to meet up at a motel before finding a more permanent safe haven, as they are on the run from Sheriff Wydell (William Forsythe)

The movie takes place in basically stages, as Baby and Otis need a motel room and kidnap a group and essentially torture and murder them. The scene is pretty messed up and brutal and really gets the point across about how messed up these 2 really are.

There is also a scene were Spaulding’s truck runs out of gas so he steals a car, so he punches out a woman and threatens to murder a child if when he comes back he doesn’t have a good reason as to why clowns don’t make him laugh.

The movie is honestly quite messed up and demented and contains one of my favorite movie quotes of all time. It is definitely worth checking out, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.  Also, fair warning, the video below is definitely R rated.

The One without Jason — Master Mix Movies

Friday the 13th: A New Beginning is a complete waste of time. At the end of Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, Jason Voorhees was killed by Tommy Jarvis. They clearly never intended it to be the last one since Friday the 13th: A New Beginning came out just one year after that movie. Despite […]

Dan Aykroyd Joins New Ghostbusters Movie

As reported by ScreenRant Dan Aykroyd has Ernie Hudson and Sigourney Weaver in the Ghostbusters movie set for 2020. The movie has been said to really focus less on the old stars from the first two movies and more on a new generation of busters.  There is however no word on whether or not Bill Fucking Murray (Yes his name should always be said that way) will be returning to his role, tho hopes are high that he will after he recently said he was open to the idea of returning.

Truth be told I don’t have high hopes for this movie. Nothing against these legends, it has just been so long since the 2nd one that I feel a third is essentially a nostalgia cash-grab similar to my thoughts on Top Gun Maverick Trailer. However, I will be open-minded to see what happens. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

An Ode to Old Action Flicks — The Mechromancer

I tried really hard to come up with an ode but they’re actually much harder to write than what I was expecting. I’m no Chris Martin unfortunately. Just gonna write a conventional post about the topic I guess. Still sticking with the original title though! Okay, let’s go back to when I was seven years […]

Black Christmas 2019 trailer 1

When I first heard about this, I thought it was a joke. It’s no joke. I’m honestly wondering if this movie isn’t even a remake of the classic. There’s nothing that really feels like the classic. Overall it looks like a typical holiday slasher movie that I ain’t too pumped for. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
