In this series we sometimes see product placements, usually the "MM" brand labels, but this time we see Nikon cameras. This episode was in 1988 so they slide with this, now we'd see the camera names changed by a letter or two to something like Nikan or Nokon.
Yabe was bad enough in the previous season, taking credit for other people's work, this season he now blackmails his superiors in order to get promotions.
The cult symbol shown in this episode reminds me of the cult symbol shown in the movie 20th Century Boys, https://trakt.tv/movies/20th-century-boys-3-redemption-2009
Naoko Yamada (Yukie Nakama) from the Trick series (https://trakt.tv/shows/trick) has a cameo in this episode.
"The Night of the Undead" doesn't belong on this list as it doesn't have zombies, a pandemic nor is the apocalypse happening, just aliens. I think the title refers to characters appearing to have gotten killed but then coming back.
At first glance, the title would make it seem like this is a zombie movie, but there are no zombies, just aliens. The title more likely refers to characters appearing to have been killed but then coming back. I see that someone included that on a list of zombie movies, it really doesn't belong there.
In the scene with the cat editor, his staff makes references comparing him to Puss N Boots, Felix the Cat, and the cat from the Smurf series.
The plot of this is pretty much the same as the anime series Horror News, https://trakt.tv/shows/horror-news , except this one is live action
Note to people visiting Infant Island, radiation suits won't do you any good if you neglect to wear the included gloves and head gear. Also it looks like Godzilla gets to destroy the another castle as he did in King Kong Vs Godzilla, this time by tripping on it. the guy just loves to destroy landmarks.
Really, the best fighter in the comics, Cassandra Cain, is reduced to being pretty much a helpless victim type. In the comics Cain could beat any of the other ladies in this group. She even beat her mother, Lady Shiva, a person that Batman was never able to beat. She was pretty much Batman's surrogate daughter for a while.
Why do otaki writers think that wearing shorts while representing your college professor at a professional assignment is considered proper? Really you're supposed to be presenting your professor and college and you wear shorts?
This short movie was later made into the series "Death Parade". https://trakt.tv/shows/death-parade
If you were teaching a film class, this would be a good film to show.
Simple times, Inspector hears that the professors home is being invaded by a large gang and he doesn't call for backup but instead goes to the home with only a kid, Jimmy Sparks. Remember this series is in Japan, with much stricter gun control laws than in the U.S., yet the kid is using a gun, WTF.
You're objecting to an autopsy being performed on the corpse of an enemy alien solider, to the point that you're about to be put in detention for arguing with your superiors, really? That's the hill you want to die on?
This is the middle of the three series known as "Robotech" in the U.S. and in my opinion, the worst. The lead character is an entitled brat who keeps getting into trouble, and is too immature to be in a position of leadership. It's not good when in half the episodes you find yourself wishing they would just lock this bitch up to keep her from f*cking up things. The U.S. version also has an extra episode to link it to the previous Robotech series.
"But if you aim for the cockpit you'll kill the pilot", yeah that's pretty much how war works, you kill them or they kill you. Again why is this bratty teenage girl in a command position?
Okay if Rose is Jericho’s sister and Deathstrokes daughter, then why was she never mentioned in the fastbacks?
Pretty much a reboot of Yongary monster from the Deep
Considering that these episodes are only 5 minutes each, way too much information is being given here for each episode in the description.
This is the same show as https://trakt.tv/shows/alice-in-borderland-2020-170654, but the other one should be the correct one as it has an entry in TMDB and this one does't.
Who are the real monsters here, those who look different from other people or those who look like normal people but are actually monsters on the inside?
Am I the only person that thinks one of the aliens in the night club looks like a big vagina?
Supposedly Japan’s greatest swindler, you can't be that great if you let your emotions rule you like it does Makoto. I know it's a Japanese trope that Japanese men are more emotional but there's a time and place. the writer of this series should have read the series "Black Swindler" which is also about a Japanese con man who doesn't fall into that trope.
Includes the first on screen appearance of Captain Riker's ship, the USS Titan, which is also a reminder that there are other ship designs besides the Cerritos, so far in the series it was much like how it was in the TOS days where the only designs you saw were the Constitution class.
From the description: "Godzilla and Anguirus quickly decipher the message and begin a plan of action." This makes it look like giant monsters are doing spy work. And I wrote this before seeing the movie, after seeing the movie I see what they mean, in an early scene they are talking about investigating something they sensed and we have their monster dialogue in written balloons before they go off to investigate.
This movie is pretty much a rip off of "Last House on the Left". Same plot with one difference at the end.
As I'm writing this, the series is up to 179 episodes based on a manga that has only 48 chapters. Considering that 2 chapters make up one episode when going to anime, that means there's a lot of filler in this series, which was something that the pervious series was often criticized for.
Am I the only person that thinks the main character resembles H.P. Lovecraft?
