This Week In Entertainment (10/28/08)

My Pick of the Week is the MST3k 20th Anniversary Collection. To be honest, the episodes themselves don't interest me. It's the extras that I want, including the little Crow that comes with each set.

Also out on DVD this week is some 3D Tinker Bell movie. She didn't talk in the Disney film, right? So are they going to give her a voice or just make her nod her head to all the new boring characters they'll toss in her movie? The animation her look like a barbie doll, by the way.


These cartoons were made in 1920s. Try to see if you can see what's wrong with the box cover. (Pssst, the blacks and whites look a little nuanced, don't they?)

I'm not a Little Rascals fan so I wouldn't know if it's really complete, but here's the Complete Series of their shorts.

Speaking of complete, here's the entire Flintstones series. It's hard to think that this was once the biggest animated primetime show now. This doesn't even include the many times the show was resurrected on Saturday mornings.

While we're on the subject of complete sets, here is the Abbott and Costello set of Universal movies. Costello totally stole from Curly Howard. Just saying.

Is this referring to the Mayan Calendar? Because after the letdown of Y2k, I'm not worried about 2012.

All these women are dead. Haw!


On the Virtual Console this week is Episode 3 of Strong Bad, entitled "Baddest of the Bands." 1000 Wii poins.

Also on the VC is Earthworm Jim, Sega Genesis version. This game was so popular that it led to the great WB cartoon. (Someone PLEASE release that on DVD.)




You know what's NOT out this week? Hobgoblins 2. Thanks a lot, Rick Sloane. I was looking forward to seeing how bad that was, but you won't release it before this Halloween.
