Review: Spirit of Wonder

Spirit of Wonder is one of those quirky little Animes that Japan doesn’t produce only epic battle and fan-service series. Spirit of Wonder is not a movie despite the title seen on some sites but, a four episode OVA series that is split between three stories. There are the two Miss China shorts that [...]

Review: Bender’s Big Score

Picked up the new Futurama DVD yesterday at WallyWorld yesterday and while it was great to see the Futurama crew again I cant help but feel that something was lacking.
The Movie:
The general plot of the feature length movie was more convoluted then usual for a Futurama story with several sub-plots running at the same time. [...]
