Up a Paddle - Episode 55 - Scary Tales
Up a Paddle - Episode 55 - Scary Tales
In this episode I go over the announcements at Anime Expo, discuss the relative hotness of Disney Princesses, and play a segment recorded back on Easter. I also review Enchanted and Monster, because this is the Monster/Fairy Tales episodes.
Here’s the time codes if you want to skip ahead. I know I would:
0:00 Intro
0:35 The News
American Death Note Movie In Development.
It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Will it end up crap like other crappy J-Horror to American Horror movies? We’ll have to wait and see.
More rumblings about Arrested Development movie.
We need an Arrested Development movie. Come on!
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time: The Movie: The Game
There are layers upon layers here I can’t even begin to comprehend.
Capcom vs Tatsunoko
This looks like it will be an awesome game. Heck, even Morrigan from Darkstalkers has updated graphics. That hasn’t happened for at least 13 years. Also there’s the Gold Lightan Love
Sporn (NSFW)
This is why we can’t have nice things, Internets. Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Can you imagine what these deviants and onanists are cooking up next. I shudder to think of it.
This monstrousity causes me to shudder as well:
Pedobear video
What has 4chan wrought?
Since that was disturbing, I thought I’d bring back teh actual sexy here with Wii Fit Girlfriend
It’s almost hypnotic
Now, on to Anime News:
Geneon is back … Kind of
ADV is also getting titles distributed by Funimation
Funimation News
Funimation sure is making out like a bandit in all of this. Must be all of that Fullmetal Alchemist and Dragon Ball Z money that they have lying around.
ADV News
I’m not dead yet!
Bandai Visual, now part of Bandai Entertainment
Bandai News
I was really hoping that Bandai would have learned from Bandai Visual’s failed marketing tactics, but I guess they aren’t going to.
Imaginasian News
On the other hand, this was a business model I wish would have worked. Order a dvd and it’s made for you.
That’s it for news
11:45 Email, Awesome

19:15 Little Brother Challenge
Admittedly, not the best challenge so far. I should have sprung for the large eggs.
29:40 Disney Princess Poll. It’s coming down finally. Ding Dong the Witch is Dead.
35:49 Promoish sort of thing - I Luv the 80’s. And I do. Hopefully after this, I’m not banned from listening to the podcast.
38:13 Review - Enchanted
41:45 Review - Monster

Yeah, this episode kinda got away from me, in terms of quality and coherence, but at least it’s over. Until the next recording, anyway. Bwuah ha ha!
Thanks for listening!
