Episode 54b - I Am Virtua Boy

This episode I review Virtua Fighter: The Anime and Iron Man.  

Email Awesome:
In this segment I talk about my April Fools day episode and why Cloverfield, although a great movie, has unlikable protagonists (unless you consider the monster the protagonist, in which case he is just cuddly).

Wikipedia's Entry For this Show

This is a great show and you guys should really check it out.  I have a feeling I forgot to talk about the fighting in this show in my review.  It was glorious.  The moves looked realistic and it was quite enjoyable to watch.
Here's what the show looks like:

* I'm really looking forward to Eeeper's new project, Capricorn Theatre (http://capricorntheater.com) where he reviews movies from the best decade ever, the 80s.  And for the record, it's not the best decade because it was the one in which I was born.  No, it's the best because that's when Smurfs: Rescue in Gargamel's Castle was released.
