About Me

 Welcome to my blog. I'll be posting about things I like such as movies, video games, and other nerd hobbies. This is my first ever blog, so I'll still figure things out.

Absent-minded Giovanni

Image
  Hello, it's been over a year since I last posted. Going through school, having a job, and overall losing a bit of interest made me put the blog in a bit of a hiatus. Since I'm currently done with summer classes, I decided that now would be a good time to get back to blogging. I'd like to discuss the animated Soviet short "Absent-minded Giovanni" . A few years ago, I first learned about this short from a Twitter account that posted Soviet animations and was drawn to its unique art style. The backgrounds resembling abstract paintings and the characters having two colors on their faces reminded me of the ENA web series by Joel Guerra  , which makes me wonder if it was an inspiration. Maybe I'll make a post on the ENA series one day.                                                               ...

Parappa the Rapper Cover Arts

  Parappa the Rapper is a video game about a dog named Parappa who solves his problems through rapping, whether it's about him learning karate, getting his drivers license, or going to the bathroom. It's known for being the first rhythm game and for it's weird and unique visual style that makes the characters look like they came from a pop-up book, so I figured why not give my thoughts on the covers that released in some regions? I'll only cover the ones from the PlayStation 1 since future ports just use the original ones. This is the original cover released in Japan. We see Parappa and his friends having a good time alongside PJ DJing. The bosses are in the background (except for King Kong Mushi  who's at the bottom left) crossing their arms in disapproval and Joe Chin in the background riding his cool car. I like this one as it reminds me of a children's story book with all of the characters and bright colors. I didn't notice it until writing this, but the...

Seriously Ridiculous: Spider-Man 2099

Image
  In any form of media, whether it be from a show, movie, or video games, there will always be a character that's on the serious side. Usually they're not meant to be taken as a joke, but sometimes the things they do are so ridiculous that you can't help but laugh at them. This was originally going to be a list, I decided to turn this into a series since every character I can think of has so much going on for them. For the first post in the series, I'll go over Miguel O'Hara (AKA Spider-Man 2099) from Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Before he made his debut in Across the Spider-Verse, he was featured in the post credits of the first film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The post credit shows Miguel preparing to enter a different universe for the first time and lands on Earth-67, the universe of the Spider-Man 1967 series. I'll put the clip here in case if you haven't seen it. The fact that Miguel is already pissed off at the Spider-Man accusing him o...
