Comeback, quarter, commentary, oblivious, where, foreign, family & fun.
Last Week in Pop Culture 013, 2nd week of December 2018
Bare in mind that the podcast has some delineation since I based it on my blog rather than this particular entry, but rest assured that I cover most of the topics included here. Here's my accumulated news list for last week.
02. Carmen Sandiego's official stills (January 18th) [Netflix]
I can't wait to see what other IPs will be rebooted next. These look good really!

04. Charles Martinet sets Guinness World Record after having voiced Mario 100 times!
"He has been voicing in video games for 22 years, since Super Mario 64 for Nintendo 64 in June 1996."

05. Doom's 25th Anniversary [December 10th, 1993->]
'A quarter century has passed since DOOM was released to the unsuspecting masses. More than two decades later the franchise has spawned multiple sequels, spin-off titles, films, comics, and cemented itself as part of the pop culture lexicon. Over the next year we’re celebrating 25 years of ripping and tearing. Twenty-five years of mods, gibs, guns, and the most passionate, unwavering, and ardent fan base this side of Phobos. Whether you cut your teeth in 1993 or if DOOM (2016) was your first trip to Hell, we’re asking all DOOM Slayers past, present, and future to unite in celebrating one of entertainment’s most iconic franchises. Welcome to the Year of DOOM.'

Yeah ... I can see where the outcry comes from considering the original counterpart's slimmer limbs and lack of fur. That's the risk of trying to adapt animated characters into 'real life' or rather realistic, right? Pikachu is at the opposite end of the spectrum in this instance when you see the Detective trailer. Maybe when the trailer inevitably comes out (later rather than sooner), maybe it will be clearer, one way or the other.

13. Super Smash Bros' stunt tribute
I really want to highlight this wonderfully crafted fight tribute to the game with four of the stuntmen of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The choreography are smart and perfect..

While it is only time before Netflix purge the remaining two Marvel shows, let's enjoy them while we still can ... until they hopefully find a new lease of life on Disney+ or rather Hulu.

Another comic book adaptation now based on the Dark Horse Comics series by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá. This maybe their replacement for the canceled Marvel shows, something they actually owned wholly.
