Quarantine Post #56: The Mummy Returns
I am back with another post. It is time to get into the sequel…and usually sequels are terrible. And I fully expected to be let down on this watch when it came out in 2001. But it was great. The good thing that it had going for it is the fact that the some of […]

Quarantine Post #55: The Mummy
It was a delight to see both the Mummy and the Mummy Returns on HBOmax. I loved these movies and watched them every time they were on tv. But it has been awhile since I seen them… It is unsettling to know that the movies came out 20 years ago. (It just means that I […]

Quarantine Post #54: Rurouni Kenshin Live Action
I, like most people who enjoy anime, was weary when I heard that they were going to do a live action of Rurouni Kenshin. I have seen what they had to offer already. (That awful Dragonball came to mind… and that damn… Death Note.) Sometimes studios need to leave well enough alone. Because I was […]

Quarantine Post #53: Atlanta Comic Con 7/2019
This is a blog post that I should have done ages ago… I can’t believe that I let so much time go past without writing this up. I remember sitting home with bored as hell and leave it to television for giving you ideas. Sitting at my computer on a Tuesday night watching Hulu and […]

Quarantine Post #52: Gear Anime
So this is a going to be a short fun post. One of the great things about the interactions I have had with my people on Twitter is that in our group chat… we share a lot of information on websites where we can get merch…. usually anime related… (Great quality, good prices.) I have […]

Quarantine Post #51: Courage, the Cowardly Dog
I have been rewatching Courage the Cowardly dog on HBOmax for the past few weeks. And if you are here on this journey with me, you know that rewatching kids shows is hit or miss. There were a lot of shows that didn’t hold up to me… and I chalked it up to nostalgia. THIS […]

Quarantine Post #50: YOU
Twitter is a great place for recommendations. My Twitter peeps were talking 2 years ago about all things YOU. I didn’t know anything about the show prior to heading to Netflix and turning it on. But when I saw that Penn Bagdley was involved… I was thinking… “Okay… I will give this a try.” (Easy […]

Quarantine Post #49: Ripper Street
I don’t usually get around to watching much Netflix. And not because Netflix isn’t great, but because there is so much content being offered all over. When I do drift back to Netflix, they never disappoint. But it is my place for seeing things on the BBC. The BBC has yet to disappoint me. With […]

Quarantine Post #48: Another potential Vacation list. (U.S. Edition)
As you guy know, I love a good list. I have been keeping myself sane by making lists of things I want to do when the world opens back up again. If you have been keeping up my word vomit, then you have read about my potential trips around different countries such as China, Japan, […]

Quarantine Post #47: The Nanny
I have long said the great thing about streaming services is being able to watch things that were a bit over my head as a kid. With HBOMax… all old things are new again. So with my friend streaming it, I decided to give it a try. It is worth saying, I had a close […]

Quarantine Post #46: Disney Weddings are a Thing.
Anyone who has known me for any significant amount of time knows that I have a love for Disney movies… and the old TV shows I used to watch as a kid. If you have read this blog for a period of time… you also know that I enjoy rewatching shows and evaluating my favorite […]

Quarantine Post #43: Batman TAS
If you were a 90’s kid… chances are you remember Batman the Animated Series. If you don’t… I am sad for you. It was my introduction to Batman and all things DCAU (DC animated universe) as it was for a lot of kids. Prior to this show, I wasn’t into comic books but this show […]

Quarantine Post #42: Goldberg’s Bagel Company & Deli
As you guys know by now, I spent my early childhood up north. NYC, Massachusetts and the like. I can remember my mother buying fried shrimp for us to eat on the bus when I was about 2 or 3. Good times. My family and I eventually moved to the south… where we have been […]

Quarantine Post #40: M. Night Shyamalan. The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Split & Glass
I have a love/hate relationship with M. Night Shyamalan and his movies. Some of them I love… some of them I hated… (Avatar anyone?) This post is about some of the movies I loved. After a few movies, he became known for his twist endings. His movies were some of the first that I watched… […]

Quarantine Post #39: High Speed Rail Anyone?
When you have been stuck at home for over a year, you find the most random things to read about online. Did I ever think that I would be that passionate or intrigued about mass/public transit? Absolutely not. I ended up visiting Denver for work about 2 years ago and I loved it. Mostly because […]

Quarantine Post #38: Netflix’s Black TV Shows
Thanks to Netflix, I have been able to watch some of the black shows that I had not watched as a kid. There was a time that I wasn’t as into watching tv and now that I am older I am going to say that I totally missed out. Being at home since March 2020 […]

Quarantine Post #37: The Irregular at Magic High School
Have you guys ever watched a show based on one character? Well that is what brought me here. One of the great things that has happened this year is the release of season 2. It is releasing week to week which I am sort of bummed about because I really would love to sit and […]

Quarantine Post #36: Goosebumps
Prior to the phenomena that is Harry Potter took over my life, it was hard to get me to read as a kid. My mother picked things and while I read them… it really didn’t hold my attention. At 2 years old, I was watching Tales from the Crypt with my mother… Good Times. So […]

Quarantine Post #35: Scooby Doo… I want a talking dog
Having nephews and a niece makes for fun times when they introduce me to things they love that are new to them but not me. So far it has been Power Rangers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Ducktails. Mostly because Ducktails just got a reboot. It is pretty good actually. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has […]

Quarantine Post #34 – Samurai Champloo
So as I do all things slowly and well after other people… I watched Samurai Champloo years after it debuted. But it was like a 2 day sit down because I love the show. Of course it was the first thing that was recommended to me when I decided to get back into anime. And […]

Quarantine Post #33 – Ip Man
Usually when I am taking a watch break from anime, I am usually watching something on Hulu or Prime Video. I have always paid for Netflix but I don’t normally watch it that often. They probably get a kick out of customers like me who pay their $8.99 month after month and don’t watch for […]

Quarantine Post #32: National Novel Writing Month- November (NaNoWriMo)
So I have not been writing blog posts lately because I have been challenged to take part in NaNoWriMo. My friends and I are avid readers but some of the issues we discussed were that there are not a lot of characters that accurately reflect us. Especially within romantic genre. I do a lot of […]
