Movies that have fused to my brain: Gremlins (1984)

Fuck yeah, 'Gremlins'!

So your Dad brings you home a Mogwai: A cute, fluffy little creature named Gizmo as a pet. He's pretty awesome. At some point you accidently spill some water on him. Next thing you know you've got a whole bunch of fluffy little dudes.

Man, these new fluffy dudes are kinda dicks, but whatever.

Accidently feed them after midnight, and now you've got giant green scaley super- assholes that are now running around your town destroying property and murdering people in hilarious ways.

They also take over the local movie cinema to watch Disney's 'Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs'.

Yes, yes, yes.

Movies that have fused to my brain: The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

-"Don't get strung out."-

Transvestite Mad Scientist From Outerspace builds himself a loverboy.

All praise the ludicrous power of the Musical.

Movies that have fused to my brain: Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (1988)

-Anyone else have the sudden urge to listen to Aphex Twin?-

The only time you will ever get to see Mickey Mouse be a jerk while hanging out with Bugs Bunny.

Movies that have fused to my brain: Toy Story (1995)

-You have no idea how fun it is to draw yourself as these characters.-

'Toy Story' is one of the most important films to be released in the last 18 years, and the few people who haven't seen this film need to get their act together. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with those people?

Movies that have fused to my brain: Batman Returns (1992)

-"I'm a sexy CATwoman, I'm a sexy CATwoman, meow, meow, meow."-

Movies that have fused to my brain: Beetlejuice (1988)

-The Ghost With The Most, Babe.-

Beetlejuice is a great character. He's a sleazy, [literally] rotten, pervert-opportunist that you can't help but love. If he was your living uncle in real life, you probably wouldn't talk about him, and if you were his niece, you would never sit on his lap.

Things I've never accomplished: Hanging Out With Superheroes

Wouldn't this be a brilliant thing to happen?

I know that there is the slight problem that Superheroes aren't real [and no, Pheonix Jones doesn't count], but a girl can still dream, right?

Some people might be wondering why I picked Aquaman of all people to be seen hanging out with.

There are three reasons for this:

1- Aquaman is generally regarded as one of the worst well known superheroes.

2- A running joke I have with my friend Jodie that Aquaman is passionately into the music of the early 90's, in particular Hootie And The Blowfish.

3- The depiction of Aquaman in the animated series 'Batman: The Brave And The Bold'. It is fantastic. He's loud, boisterous, insanely enthusiatic, and it's almost impossible to bring him down [unless his wife forces him to go on family vacation]. It also helps that he is voiced by John DiMaggio, also known for his work as Bender on 'Futurama', and as Jake The Dog on 'Adventure Time'.

You should all make time to watch 'Batman: The Brave And The Bold'. It is first equal as my favourite Batman TV series, sharing the top spot, of course, with Bruce Timm's 'Batman: The Animated Series', and for very different reasons.

'Batman: The Brave And The Bold' takes its cues from the campier moments in Batman History, such as the Adam West Batman television show from the 1960s, and that one time Batman had to wear a Rainbow Batsuit to defeat his enemy.
It is also filled with great one-liners delivered by Diedrich Bader as Batman.

Look, just watch the show damnit. Watch all three seasons and then you can suffer for all eternity knowing Aquaman will never be that cool again.

-Here, let Aquaman inspire you with his Rousing Song Of Heroism!-

-This is the final installment in "Things I've Never Accomplished". New theme starting Monday.-
