I still need to finish reading this book.
Here’s one that’s been hiding in my YouTube favorites. Recorded by “Pixel Dan” Eardley from the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con, this panel is all about the history of Filmation. The panel included actors and creators from the studio, as well as Lou Scheimer in his final appearance before he passed away in 2013.

I know Friday Night Fights is headed to the Prize Fight for the Karate Kicks tournament. I barely took part and I didn’t win any fights. And I brought a ninja and everything! I do want to encourage my readers to vote for the tournament winner, but I have a tradition to maintain.

Veterans Day is when we in the United States honor those who have served in wartime. While Memorial Day honors those who lost their lives on the battlefield, today we give thanks to those who survived, which includes family and friends of mine, so it’s very important to me. For this year’s tribute I have two short videos. One is about the history of this day, formerly Armistice Day, and the other features a few Vets who are really no different than you or I. They just chose to serve their country.

I’m not shilling anything (but if Ford wants to give me money, I won’t stop them), but I thought this was pretty cool. Ford’s latest ad campaign is easily targeting 90s kids and some of us geeks who were paying attention. Their “Overdubs” takes clips from popular nineties stuff, from Metal Gear Solid, Dragon Ball Z, Captain Planet, and your guess is as good as mine because it’s some live-action show I never watched. I’ve actually seen a couple of these on television, and thought some of you may want to check it out. Hopefully this one plays overseas for those of you in other countries not getting these ads.
