Re: Video Game Adaptations 'Worse' Than SMB
I actually like the Resident Evil Movies are they faithful to the original source material? Not really, but a lot of what they have put in I can see happening in the stories of Resident Evil. There is one film though that although was bad it wasnt completely the directors fault (Even though a lot of...

Re: CineMassacre (AVGN) Review of Super Mario Bros.
I don't think James tries to be comedic in his movie reviews. I think he tried to be a legit reviewer when it comes to movies because that's his main form of media. But I got to give him credit because he was respectful to the film and it's followers and, sure he did mes up a few times like Dinosaur...

Re: And so my Journey Begins
I had taken a break from collecting for a while. I got a new job and making less money but I started watching The Game Chasers and saw how they can be just as broke as me but their still collecting inspired me to get back on my Journey to collect memorabilia of this great movie. I just bought a 3 Pa...

Re: MY SECRET ITEM IS REVEALED!!!
Question from the crowd....Is the version of Walk The Dinosaur that's on there. Is it the one heard on the CD Soundtrack or is it the one heard from the Music Video? Because those are 2 different mixes and I have been looking for the one heard in the music video.

Re: The Soundtrack needs a reboot
Im not saying we invest money into it. I'm just saying the songs that were chosen to appear on the CD even for that time don't reflect the movie that well. So if I could give it a reboot this is what I would choose.

Nothing about the soundtrack feels like Super Mario Bros. It may fit and feel right in certain scenes but Soundtracks are made to help promote a movie and the feeling you will get from seeing it.

I actually just won the Devo Chamber on Ebay but the stickers are peeling and the pipes are missing but it does come with the exclusive Goomba with the red velvet coat. I may try to make my own pipes out of PVC or something similer so it looks complete. I'll still keep my eye out for a complete one.
