I rented the 4th Jurrassic and thought the mutating dino was stupid. What was up with that? I own all the movies to date and may watch Dominion to finish it.

Also I'd say watch the Jetix Era Toei shows starting with Hurri. All of that era are solid. Started a bunch of them up after Hurri but need to finish.

For Saban Era I

Mega Ranger , the one after and Time Ranger for sure.

I started watching Madan Senki Ryukendo recently and it's pretty fun so far. Try that.

I wholeheartedly second this notion. Ryukendo is the bomb! Super bright and cheery, and doesn't take itself seriously to the point it wears cliches like badges of honor. I maintain it's pretty much the distilled essence of hero tokusatsu.

I really don't want this to happen.

Rescue Force
Rescue Fire
Ryukendo
Sazer-X
GARO
For one of the Mabuyer movies ISSA of Da Pump, who sang Justifaiz and a few other rider songs, was the secondary hero Ganasea. He is the blue dragon-looking hero if you ever look him up. It makes sense for ISSA to play the role because he is a known Kamen Rider geek and from Okinawa.

Metal Heroes!

I wish there was a way to watch more metal heroes shows. Toei Official Youtube is a nice start but it only has some of the series and no subs.

That's some cool stuff right there.

So it is an Evangelion! At first I was like, EVA? XD

Also, what is Small Worlds?

Kung Fu Panda is one of the few series I have to finish but have now caught up with Jumanji and Monday Jurrassic. Tuesday Hotel Transylvania. After that stall out. Most are coming back with a new one.

Basically a giant miniature exhibition you can walk around in between and look at.

We have something like that in Germany for about 20 years now, it’s called "Miniature Wonderland" and was built to be the biggest single miniature railway construction. I believe Japan saw this and was like "Yeah we can do that too. With robots and sadness!" :lol

Here's our version for comparison:

Hey I remember something like that! There was a giant Lego exhibit here in Australia with local builders showing off their collections and stuff.

My sister took a spaceship because she thought it was free (she was pretty young back then). We told her to put it back before anyone else noticed.

Someone with a lot of money and time should make an epic scaled diorama of super minipla sentai robots fighting their respective monsters of the week.

Chicago's got our own awesome miniature set at the Museum of Science & Industry. It's pretty amazing.

Thanks so much for finding this! It really looks exceptional. I hope they keep the exhibition around for awhile. Seems like a great Mother's Day outing!

And if mom isn't too much into giant murder machines, they have Sailor Moon stuff too :)

After Kung Fu Panda 3 next Tuesday I'll be up to date on the movie lines I plan to see.

Up next upon USA DVD release will be

Red Dwarf XIII The Promised Land.

This will be a movie length episode of Red Dwarf running about as long as the uncut version of Red Dwarf VIII Back In The Red

The Promised Land deals with the cat race so we'll see the consequences of what had played out during Red Dwarf I The End when Dave had been placed in stasis after he brought Frankenstein aboard Red Dwarf.

Watching a new episode of “Pawn Stars” and a customer brought in one of the Pirahnatron helmets from “Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie”. (Screenshot from the Power Rangers Wiki used for comparison)

Wow!!

Hey would anyone want me to look for any toku items for them on the ol yahoo auction? I'm kind of bored, enjoy looking at toys and could use some help with splitting shipping on an order, so I figured I'd ask

Yohan, member of K-pop boy band TST, has passed away. He was twenty-eight. RIP. :(

Cause of death has been witheld from the public.

That's so awful, he was so young.


On a lighter note

Have we discussed whether Alien is Ameritoku yet? because I feel like we have, but if not uh have at it folks who know toku better then I.

Kung Fu Panda in on Thursday.

All 3 movies.

On another note Jurassic VI resumes filming in London with a 7th movie planned. Dominion is on the way again.

I assume this is not a remake of The Wrath of Cortex from the looks of it.

New masks makes me think Wrath of Cortex and then there's time-travel and different dimensions involved aka Warped and Twinsanity.

So the premise doesn't sound all that original, but for a potential new (good) Crash game I won't mind. They could make the game about collecting golden Wumpa fruit to make a pie to save the world for all I care.

I feel like Crunch will probably return because he is a popular character similar how Cynder is to the Spyro series. I hope Kevin Michael Richardson will be back to voice him again if he shows up in the game.

Depends on which point in time they'll set this, 4 could play out before WOC.

However, they had such positive feedback for including so many characters from Crash games post Naughty Dog into the CTR remake I would assume they'll set it after Twinsanity and just ignore the "Titans" reboot.

I think it would be cool to have Crunch in there, potentially as a playable character even. If they follow the idea of Warped, Crash, Coco and Crunch could all have levels tailor-made for their abilities.

I recorded my entry for the Fan Episode of Let's Talk Toku. Hope they use it in the finished episode.

Fingers crossed!

Thanks! And you better believe that if it actually happens come September, I will let everyone know about it.

Right now, i lost a old friend by the COVID-19.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Please take care.

This made me teared up. I'm gonna be even more of a wreck when the same happens with Persona 5.

Sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry, I wish you all the time you need to recover.

That's horrible. My condolences.

You have my condolences and prayers. It's never easy losing a loved one. I hope you're doing well in these trying times.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear about your lost. COVID-19 is a serious virus and most people still don't understand why it is so bad.

My condolences.

Hey this looks... kind of cool actually. Like on one hand the new style isn't exactly my cup of tea and I would've been fine if they used the N. Sane Trilogy models - but there's just so much new stuff here it's actually refreshing to see.

I think it looks good because it looks like something more original than another remake/remaster. I hope we will see a Spyro 4 soon.
