I'm not judging OOO, like I said I will get around to watching it someday, I was just saying that the movie wasn't as engaging as it could've been.

I just watched W Returns: Accel &, holy crap! I thought I liked Ryuu before but he was just a friggin' badass in this film. For a minute I thought I was watching Die Hard or something.
Anyway, as you can tell, I loved this film, I think this is my favourite of the W films so far, but we'll see if W Returns: Eternal changes that. The only real "downside" I could think of is that again Shoutarou & Phillip don't get to do much, but then again, this is Accel's movie & at least they were in the movie anyway. And also like Skull: Message for W I just liked seeing how these characters have evolved, one of my favourite scenes being the opening at Akiko's house (or apartment, I'm not sure). I don't know how everyone else feels about Accel's design, but by now, it's definitely grown on me. Okay, so tomorrow I'm watching W Returns: Eternal & that'l cap off my viewing of W (or at least until I watch Mega Max or something). Last edited by Destroyman; 06-10-2012 at 03:04 AM.. |

So, I got back on a Rider kick because of... I actually can't remember what, but yeah, I started out going back to the original series (which is still fun), then back to Black (which I still love), then watched Megamax (which I quite enjoyed despite never having seen OOO, and am now hooked on W. After finishing "Heaven's Tornado," the stuff right after finally grabbed me in a way I hadn't been before.
Then, last night, I watched Movie War 2010. For "Begins Night," but I still watched all of it. And God damn, I had no idea what was going on for the first, like, 20 minutes. I got it more as it went along, but I still don't have any reason to like Tsukasa. I was honestly only going to watch Decade for the old-school rider cameos and this kind of cemented that. Also, why the hell was J 300 feet tall?

It's J, he does that. I'm just glad that they remembered he wasn't always like that by the time Let's Go Riders rolled around. It always bummed me out that he and Kuuga weren't in that original "All Riders" line-up. |

Speaking of Kuuga, I'm confused on something, did Kuuga start in 99 or 00? Years just aren't adding up to me, because if Kuuga was in 99, how is Ryuki in 2002? However, if Kuuga was 2000, how was 2009 the anniversary year?
BTW, I watched the 555 Paradise Lost movie last night for the first time in 8 years and I forgot how terrible it was. The battle in the arena is the only thing that makes that movie even remotely watchable. |

Kuuga ran from Jan. 30, 2000 - Jan. 21, 2001.
Agito ran from Jan. 28, 2001 - Jan. 27, 2002. Ryuki ran from Feb. 3, 2002 - Jan. 19, 2003. Decade wasn't the 10 anniversary in the sense that KR was running for 10 years, but that it was the 10th KR series of the Heisei era (Not including Shin, ZO, and J). |

So in-between watching all the W movies I also managed to finish watching Kabuto. How was it? Well, I certainly enjoyed the series as a whole, but there were some things that bugged me from time-to-time.
But let's start off with the characters. Is it me? Or does this show have one of the strangest Rider casts ever? I mean, first off you have Tsurugi who is just completely disconnected from the real world. Then Yaguruma & Kageyama as Kick & Punch Hopper, who were just ridiculously & hilariously emo (but strangely still kinda badass). And finally, Tendou. I still don't know whether I like this guy or not, he never really listened to anyone else & rarely explained the reasons behind some of his actions. Also I wasn't a fan of how he would tend to just know things nobody else did, like what a worms true target was, whether someone was a worm or not, that sort of thing. But he still does have some charm, like his passion for cooking, his relationship with Juka, Hiyori & Kagami. Speaking of which, I somewhat feel like the show should have been called "Kamen Rider Gatack", knowhatimsayin? I feel I would've liked the show even more if Kagami was the main character instead. Oh, also, I wish Daiske had shown up more, but that might have something to do with his actors role in "The Next". One thing that was great about this series was the Worm & Native. And the overall theme of 'Trust' throughout the show. If you told me that this show was written as a sequel to "The Thing", I would've totally believed you.* And now for some questions I have. Why exactly did ZECT/The Native design the Zecters like they did? Robotic Insects that choose who they want to wield them? I just don't get it. Also, why did Kagami & co. never decide to just quit ZECT? I mean, between being manipulated, deceived & almost killed by ZECT on a number of occasions, you figure they would've just gotten fed up with their Bullshit. And how come ZECT never actively pursued Tendou, like, hold his sister hostage or something? I mean by halfway the show they pretty much knew he was Kabuto. Oh, & what happened to Yaguruma at the end? I assume he killed Kageyama but after that he's seen holding his body & doesn't show up again. Anyway, I'd definitely recommend Kabuto & now I'm going to watch W Returns: Eternal & Kabuto: God Speed Love, & then, I think I'll take a break from Kamen Rider for a little bit. |
