Dirty POP

By
Ok, this post isn't really about an N*SYNC song, even though we love them. I'm sure you know that Funko has the most adorable POP Vinyl figures. This is one line of figures that I could literally buy every single one and be absolutely happy with my decision. There are POP figures for anything you could geek out over. They have Disney characters, Wizard of Oz characters, Back to the Future, Star Wars, Avengers (they have an adorable Agent Coulson now that is the sweetest thing ever), Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Scarface, Thundercats, WWE wrestlers...the list goes on and on. All the figures have a similar element with their huge head and eyes, but somehow Funko makes each one look amazingly different. I'm not one for collecting action figures or figurines, but these are too adorable to pass up. I have a weakness for adorable things. It's like buying a bunch of baby animals, but less expensive and less responsibility after purchase. My short wish list for these items would have to be Agent Coulson, Loki, Stan Lee, Ariel, Legolas, The Cowardly Lion, and Dark Phoenix. I keep changing my mind, but I think that's the list I'm going to stick with.
Not only does Funko sell the adorable POP figures, but they have Wobblers and Sitters (their own version of bobble heads). I don't like these quite as much, but if you're a fan of having a bobble head on your desk, check these out. Then there are the Plushies. These look like the POP figures, but they're essentially a stuffed animal. I'm pretty sure Graphics Girl would love to have a Daryl Dixon Plushie. You can't help but love these. They also have the big head and eyes, but they're squishy. There are far fewer of these than the figures, but they are equally lovable. Funko also has a hand full of other products. There are vinyl figures and Cupcake Keepsakes, Pop bookmarks, Tin-Tastics, and Papercrafts. If I had my own children, I'd be buying the Tin-Tastics and bookmarks for birthdays. These are adorable items that are also practical. I love to read, so I can always use a good bookmark and the Tin-Tastics have two pencils, two erasers that look like characters, stickers, and an adorable tin that also looks like a character. I actually really love the Adventure Time tin.

The World's End Review

By
Graphics Girl and I went to the movies a few days ago. I was feeling awful physically, so she decided that we needed a comedy and I didn't protest since it was written by Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg. The gang's back together in The World's End. Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine, and Eddie Marsan are five guys who, with the encouragement of their once fearless leader, Gary King, (Pegg) have decided to go back to their hometown and do the pub crawl that they had tried back in 1990. Gary hasn't grown up at all over the years, but when things get hairy and the boys have a run in with some robots, they decide to follow his lead anyway and attempt to finish the crawl which culminates at The World's End. This movie is brilliantly done. The story plays like a comedy, but has elements of action, sci-fi, and thriller films. Once you start to realize how much your stomach hurts from laughter, they throw in a touching moment or a well choreographed fi...

Heroes in a Half Shell

By graphics_girl
A couple weeks ago, before stuff started showing up on the internet about the new Michael Bay movie, I decided to watch the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie with my boys. So, here's the jist of the story. Four tiny turtles begin a huge transformation after coming in contact with a mysterious green ooze. A rat who was once the pet of a great ninja master "adopts" them and teaches them the way of the ninja. While the turtles are studying in the sewers, there is a crime wave blanketing the city above. Robberies are on the rise and TV reporter April O'Neil finds herself a one of the latest victims. Unexpectedly, the streetlamp goes out....and when it goes back on, she's sitting next to a tied up pile of her attackers! Leave it to a reporter to get to the bottom of the story! April finds that behind this crime ring is the Foot Clan, led by the evil Shredder and he's not happy that she's onto him and he sends his henchmen to take care of ...

I'm Gonna Hack You In Two With A Hatchet

By
No, this week's TBT is not a horror flick. This just happens to be one of the most hilarious lines from a little known made for tv movie called Camp Cucamonga. For some reason, it's always been a family favorite. We were all able to get together this past weekend to celebrate my mother's birthday and there were several references, including part of the rap from the movie. Yup...that's just the kind of family we are.   The movie was released for television in September of 1990 basically just to display a plethora of popular television actors of the time, but ended up being a quality product despite some of the cheese. The title was briefly changed to How I Spent My Summer, but now can be found again under the original title. The all-star cast included Candace Cameron (Full House) and Jaleel White (Family Matters), which covered our TGIF days. Then we have Josh Saviano and Danica McKellar from The Wonder Years. We also get to see heartthrob Chad Allen from My Two Da...
