WONDERCON 2017

At the Anaheim Convention
in Anaheim, California 

Attendees in Costume: 

This came from a vintage issue of Japan's Animage (from 1986), showing early drawings of 1987's upcoming "Original Video Animation" feature film "Wicked City". A major film achievement for Japanese Studio Madhouse and one of the finest Fully Adult Features around, these sketches (which don't actually appear in the film) show off the actual character designs of hero Taki, heroine Makie, and some of the nasty beasts they encounter, as they are in the finished project. The image of Makie holding her wine glass exemplifies the sophisticated, classy sexual appeal that the film and her character has(its kept my attention since my first viewing in the mid 1990s). There's been a depressing lack of appreciation (or decent media) on the web for the film or the imaginative pulp novels by Hideyuki Kikuchi which it is based, so I decided to share this....

From My trip to the Balboa Fun Zone in Newport Beach. I love these  multi-vintage-game arcade machines. Sadly the buttons were on the "not working" side which I discovered while Gyruss from Konami. Figures....

My "Man with No Name" styled Caricature, made while at Balboa.

 One minor accomplishment; completing this puzzle based on the 1980s Captain Power Interactive toy franchise...

 It is done!

"My Youth in Arcadia" Trailer

 

Here’s the 2^nd original Theatrical trailer for “Waga Seishun No Arcadia” (My Youth in Arcadia) from 1982. The epic animated film expounds on Leiji Matsumoto’s classic creation Captain Harlock and was followed by the short lived (only 22 episodes long; more were planned) “Mugen Kido SSX” (Enless Road SSX) TV series. Much like the shorter “Teaser”-Type Trailer(which Ive posted on youtube) for this classic, this preview is made of scenes not in the film(possibly just for both trailers).

This was made by me; english subtitles are hard coded in video, from my own DVD copy. I claim no rights; made for entertainment and needed exposure for these classics. Harlocks Awsome!

SEGA GENESIS Revenge of Shinobi Level 6 Boss UNCUT

I recorded myself playing the cart. Joe Musashi vs Spiderman and you know who, for real. Sorry for my lame gaming skills, though.

Frankenstein Must be Destroyed Trailer with Restored narration

A project I worked hard on; Im actually proud of the results. I re-synched the audio from a rare audio source I have. I love this film. Enjoy!!!
