Oh no, it's a giant archive full of VHS rips, most of them movies that have limited to no release outside of VHS tape. Whatever will I do?

PPVs (pay-per-views) in the wrestling world are weird, and as a "story" fan, they cause some weird narrative structure things that you don't really get in most other storytelling.

In the weeks leading up to the PPV, there's a lot of things building up and very little resolutions... because they want you to pay money to watch the PPV.

This is gonna be a 🧵, just a warning

I know it's a slasher, and they have to have enough people to be able to kill them every 9 minutes, but this movie has way too many characters.

I honestly forgot about military sister, haven't seen her in so long

The cop is going to be so mad when he finds out that this is real. So much paperwork, oh my God.

#TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam #GraduationDay didn't see anything you didn't hear

The main character of the movie is the dead sister, the entire thing is orbiting around her absence, it's also why the POV keeps jumping from character to character, because it's following a ghost

I wonder if the original Halloween movie averages 1 kill per 9 minutes?

So The Last Drive In tonight is 1981's Graduation Day, making it the second Troma movie so far this season.

TV show idea: A trio of kids are abducted by aliens, befriend the sentient ship AI, have the AI help them escape, and then they take the core with them and install it in their family's minivan, which turns it into a transformer.

The entire show is told 'in medias res', starting with them installing the core into the van and the AI suddenly finding itself no longer a giant sentient battleship and now a Dodge Caravan with faux wood paneling, and the rest is discovered through flashbacks

Every now and then, I am reminded of an event from 2016 - a bunch of people in the local poly community gathered together to watch the Trump vs Clinton debates.

After the debate, I got into a... let's say "heated discussion" with a friend of a friend about how my desire to take care of my mother was holding me down, and how I needed to read this new eye opening book by this amazing liberal upstart...

The book was... sigh Hillbilly Elegy by J. D. Vance

Hey Mastodon, I have an #ungoogleable question. I am remembering a song, probably from a musical, where it's nothing but a bunch of names of classical composers, getting faster and faster with each repetition until unsingable.

It starts with "Bach, Brahms, Beethoven," then the next one was another B I think, like Barstoff or Barstock, then it continues to rattle on through a ton of other names before looping back.

I am now watching Island City (1994) and the fact that this shares some DNA with Babylon 5 is absolutley not lost on me. Every single screenshot looks like it could be from an episode of B5.

Oh, and did I mention it's starring the One True Batman, Kevin Conroy?

Hey #monsterdon I need help remembering a movie name.

1990s made-for-tv movie, I suspect it was a pilot for a series.

There was a wonder drug or something that was released that gave everybody perfect health and really long life, and it worked perfectly... on them... but the undiscovered side effect was that it turned almost all the children they had into hyper aggressive mutants that destroyed the world.

I have a game recommendation that comes with a LOT of asterisks.

Pros:
This is an incredibly stupid, simple game that hits a lot of very nice dopamine-releasing spots.

Cons:
It has almost no actual gameplay
Its laden with ads.

I'm pretty sure the art is all AI generated.

There's no save function and a lot of people report their progress being wiped.

There's no settings or way to disable vibrate or sounds

Might be a crypto-miner?

I have trained myself to do this too, and it really helps.

I don't know what the heck is going on, #transformers fans, but I was at Target in Ohio and they had all these guys marked down to $35, BUT when we scanned they they were coming up at only $27. The big ones and the medium ones.

Credit cards going to be hurting for a little while, but damn it if this isn't worth it. If you have a Target near you, it might not be a bad idea to go check it.

This is journalism.

This is serious, deep, investigative journalism, the sort that newspapers and tvs used to be able to do when they had local oversight and didn't have to worry about pissing off the corporate overlords.

Gods bless them.

Love seeing Mastodon escaping to the outside world. This was in a meme dump on imgur. Credit to @Lana and I hope the insurance covers staring into the void, it's pretty much all I do

Found a bootleg Mugenbine toy on ebay and the absolute best part of these are the fake Engrish names they have given to all the toys.

TV fans in their 40s... what cartoons do you remember from the 1960s and 70s were still being rerun well into the 80s?

I feel like it didn't last into the 1990s because of the glut of new animation that came from the 80s gave them a lot more cartoons to re-run, but there was definitely a time in the early-to-mid-80s where things like Super Friends, Scooby Doo, Flinstones, Hanna Barbera were being used to fill out sub-prime schedule slots.

This came up because of a poll from @moon but I thought I'd share this with everybody.

They Might Be Giants album Apollo 18 came with 38 tracks - 17 normal songs and one "song" called Fingertips that was 21 different short song snippets, intended to play randomly while using Shuffle.

That said, a tribute band called They Might Be Gannets went on to flesh out each individual snippet into whole songs.
