Had a binge watching session of Blade. Just finished Episode 46 so I'm nearly at the end. Really interesting twist at the end when it turns out that they've been working for the main villain the entire time and how his own version of justice is simply destroying the world. Kind of reminds me of Gaim in how Takatora wanted to save humanity but used methods whereby only a proportion of humanity would be saved. Not to mention that everything is coming to a climax in a way that all options don't seem favourable. Either all life on Earth is destroyed or Earth becomes a planet of Stag Beetles. And yet they have to fight. This is going to be some conclusion... Might be able to finish it this evening.

Just when I thought Amazons could get any more gorier or surprise me with it,..it does.
Started Season 2 last night and they topped Season 1 within just a couple episodes. One had a bridal party all turn into monsters and while fighting them one of them gets pushed against a tree, ...then with a flying kick one of the "heros" lands with one foot on her chest and with the other foot uppercuts her chin so hard her head just explodes all over the place. But there's more, later we see a guy kill his family and eat them. Wife and daughter are laying on the kitchen floor with their guts hanging out,..while he's dragging another daughter down the hallway singing a little song. Blood is everywhere. There's a closeup of the daughters face and you see she's in shock mumbling, "Daddy,...why?" and her eye is fcked up. Then we see Dad still singing his little song, pop an eyeball into his mouth and happily start chewing. HOLY CRAP!! Man this show is dark!! I had to chuckle a bit thinking about a friend who called the show 'Power Rangers' just because the hero(s) have a colorful costume. Pretty sure Power Rangers doesn't have people murdering and eating their family while singing a song. Couldn't believe they went that far. Part of me is watching the show like it's The Walking Dead or something,..curious how far they're going to take things in the brutality dept. I mean Season 2 just started, and we've already got a guy chewing on his daughters eyeball. |

Amazons sounds way too gory for my liking, I'm probably going to give it a miss.
Finished Blade the other night. I understand why the ending is so well thought of, and I like the way they built it up even if they did come so close to a really bad outcome. Also watched Episodes 8 and 9 of Kamen Rider Decade which I'm dipping into after watching the original shows based off of that season (as I did with Den-O). Enjoyed those too even if it was an augmented reality it was still a cool concept. Although the rate of which employees could drop in rank or rise was a bit extreme sometimes. Finally I got round to watching Kamen Sentai Gorider which I'd put off because it spoilt Blade before. Was pretty cool to see the older riders in there even if it was very obvious to me during the first episode that Emu was inside of a game, kind of the obvious thing to think of when it comes to Ex-Aid side material although given the film that was supposed to introduce the KSG powers got botched up it's never really explained where Emu got the cards from in the first place. Will get around to more of the side material in the future, specifically Kamen Rider Snipe. As for full series I'm thinking of watching W or Drive next.

The movies are Movie War 2010, W A to Z Forever and Surprise Future. When the opening uses movie footage then you know when to watch the movie

32 episodes into V3 now.
The show is still great, but frankly I miss when it was all two-parters. There's a few still sprinkled in, but it's mostly singles now. It's a bit sad. Also, not that I was counting or anything, but I'm almost confident they didn't reveal all 26 of V3's secrets before they stopped talking about them. Seems kinda pointless now. Not to mention his other three weaknesses, which yeah. They haven't mentioned. Also bringing back the Shocker generals for two episodes to do nothing was...well, it was a thing that happened. That covers about the extent of my gripes. |

Also yeah, the Shocker Generals were completely pointless, I really don't see why they were there. >_> |

Oh man, you're into the Baron Fang era. That's probably my favorite part of V3. The Baron seems to be a character that's been largely forgotten, but he's one of my favorite early Showa era generals, probably second only to Apollo Geist.

I'm really looking forward to seeing v3. I started pretty much by watching The First and The Next movies which I really liked a lot. Then I jumped around in Heisei era until settling on W to start. Which I also really liked.
Now I'm watching 1971 v1 Rider and 2016 Amazons. (jumping back and forth really.) But I'm looking forward to v3. He seems like a neat character. in The Next when I saw the Driver v3 wears and it had two red fans on it instead of one like Hongo and Hayato I was like, "oh sht it's on now!" Lately I've been watching lots of clips on Youtube too, trying to decide what to watch after I finish Amazons. I guess I'm settling on watching one Showa era and one Heisei era at the same time. So if I'm in the mood for old school or new school I just watch that one that night. Though I think I'm just going to jump to Kuuga and move through both eras in chronological order. Since I'm still on the first Showa show I guess I'll also do the first Heisei show. ...er...with the exception of Build I guess, which I'm also watching. It's weird how being a Godzilla fan has turned into being a Godzilla/Ultraman fan which has spread out to being a Godzilla/Ultraman/Kamen Rider fan. ...and lately I've been eyeballing the Sentai series and actually have Dairanger and Shuriken Sentai saved for a rainy day. Godzilla is a gateway drug to Tokusatsu. Hahahaha Last edited by KaijuUltraFan; 11-07-2017 at 11:17 AM.. |
