This actually tracks, given how he legitimately believes that fanservice is the DNA of all anime and manga.

Like, it's another sign of how little he knows about anime and its history since the ecchi genre only started in 1968 with Go Nagai's Harenchi Gakuen.

This definitely tracks given how he celebrated Denji getting assaulted in Chainsaw Man by cracking open a beer, so this is just familiar territory for him.

Bro’s a porn brained lowlife scumbag with an incredibly immature understanding of sex and sexuality.

This screenshot was taken after the character got raped btw. What the actual fuck is wrong with him?

I feel like most cosplayers or people making their Halloween costumes get their stuff online from cosplay sites or Amazon.

Jessica here is really out of touch and has no clue what she's talking about.

Treated myself to these during the Prime Day sale. Really excited to check out the RE4 remake.

It's really funny that The Art of War is treated as this like alpha male book when it's clearly meant to be read by ancient Chinese failsons because it's all "please don't forget you have to feed your troops" and "if someone asks if you're going to attack them consider lying about it"

How far behind the times is this creep? I was a teenager in the 90s and, after Nevermind came out, dyeing your hair blue and getting nose rings was so mainstream that even the kids in the shitty suburb where I lived were doing it. In 2025, it’s about as transgressive as painting your nails.

I think it’s that, the homoeroticism, and Tony Scott’s direction that ensured that it was a huge hit.

Granted, I’m biased with that last part as I’m a huge Tony Scott fan.

i honestly think the movie top gun, would not have been nearly as popular if it wasn't for the song "Danger Zone"

Jesus, that bad huh?

Like, I knew it was going to be bad given how it stars pretentious method actor/known sex pest Jared Leto but I didn’t know it would be that bad.

TRON Ares is one of the most unsurprising, blatant pieces of corporate propaganda I've ever seen, and what started as a review turned into something of an essay on why the franchise meant so much to me, and why I'm not surprised.

Premiere soon:

Watched the first episode of the 79' series and i'm pretty impressed at how well it hold up.

Sure, the design is dated, and the animation isn't the best (some shots are pretty amazing though, iconic even) but the story gets real darkin a surprisingly compelling way.

Nobody buys anime costumes at Wal-Mart. This isn't a "win," you dumb moron.

Y'know.... It's wild that the Trump admin thinks they can distract people from wanting the Epstien Files released.....

Where were they when people fought tooth and nail for far less (#ReleaseTheSnyderCut) and won? Lol.

This is an early Halloween treat for me because I love the hell out of Mandy. It’s one of my favorite horror films and I consider it to be one of the best films of the 2010s. So it’s awesome to see it get an episode from my favorite movie podcast.

Junkfood Cinema @junkfoodcinema.bsky.social · 1d

This week’s crazy evil episode launches #Aughtstober, a miniseries within #HalloweenSpirit!

Brian & @weinberg.social descend into the madness of MANDY with Nic Cage! These warlocks then rip a hole in time for a special bonus treat!

RSkT now, ya Cheddar Goblins!

Oh, agreed.

I love the game but I’m not blind to its flaws.

Not surprised given how DAKKADAKKA is a loud and out white supremacist.

Also, I love the hell out of Mafia III. It’s a damn good, underrated game.
