Throwback Thursday: CHiPs (1977-83)

“7-Mary-3 and 7-Mary-4, responding” I was only one year old when the first season of CHiPs debuted on NBC in September of 1977. Despite this, and due the fact that my family, especially my sister, loved the series, I became a fan of the show in its later seasons. It lasted for six seasons fromContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: CHiPs (1977-83)”

Spin Master The Flash 2023 Action Figures

“Run, Barry, Run.” Let me be completely upfront about this review. I purchased two of the available five figures in this new line from Spin Master. One of the reasons is that I really only wanted the Michael Keaton Batman figure but decided to pick up the Ezra Miller Flash figure strictly for comparison. TheContinue reading “Spin Master The Flash 2023 Action Figures”

Cocaine Bear (2023)

Bear Scat Cocaine Bear should have been an outrageous, silly comedy film. It should have accepted the fact that it is a film loosely based upon an already insane true story and expanded that insanity to the Nth degree. It should have been full of practical effects that had audiences roll their eyes with joy.Continue reading “Cocaine Bear (2023)”

Thirtieth Anniversary Triple Threat!

“Alright, alright, alright!” Everybody loves a good movie. This year, 2023, marks the thirtieth anniversary of three of my favorite films. Those three films are Jurassic Park, Dazed And Confused, and Tombstone. Jurassic Park is arguably my favorite film of all time. Dazed And Confused is my favorite coming-of-age film. I consider Tombstone to beContinue reading “Thirtieth Anniversary Triple Threat!”

Mattel The Hammond Collection Concavenator (2022)

Background Dino Gets To Shine! Fans of the Jurassic Park/World franchise might scratch their heads when first laying eyes on the Concavenator figure recently added to the Hammond Collection from Mattel. The reason for that is because they might not have even noticed the dinosaur in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. It appears briefly in theContinue reading “Mattel The Hammond Collection Concavenator (2022)”

Mattel The Hammond Collection Robert Muldoon (2023)

“Clever girl….” Game Warden Robert Muldoon (portrayed by the late Bob Peck) is the one character in the original Jurassic Park (1993) film that I hated to see die. If you’ve read the novel you are aware that the character survived the incident at Jurassic Park. He was one of my favorite characters in bothContinue reading “Mattel The Hammond Collection Robert Muldoon (2023)”

McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Mister Freeze (2023)

“Everybody chill!” Okay, in my last action figure post I stated that it was my last McFarlane review for awhile. Well, I lied. I completely forgot about the fact that I pre-ordered the McFarlane Toys DC Mulitverse Mister Freeze figure. I debated on whether or not I should hold off on reviewing the figure, butContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Mister Freeze (2023)”
