Re: Metroid Prime Engineer "Let Down" By Exclusion Of Original Credits In Remaster

MagicEmperor

I read about half these comments then gave up and scrolled to here, haha! Guess that says something about me. Well, personally, I think the original staff should still he credited, but a generalized one-liner’s better than nothing. Still, I’m really enjoying this Remaster, so thanks to everyone, past and present.

I do like to stick it out with credits in games and movies, mostly because I have a strange feeling of completion.

Re: Review: Smurfs Kart - Not As Smurf As Smurf, But Surprisingly Smurf

MagicEmperor

I was really into The Smurfs when I was a tyke (one of my childhood gifts is a production cel of Smurfette talking to another Smurf—still have it), so I’m glad to hear that some new Smurfs game isn’t so smurfed. I’ll also keep an eye out for a discount!
This smurfy coincidence might also explain why I’ve been humming the music from the GameBoy Smurfs games recently…

Re: Super Mario Bros. Movie Composer Gives Fans Sneak Peek At 'Mario Suite Part 3'

MagicEmperor

Unless I’m mistaken, the only score of Mr. Tyler‘s I’ve crossed paths with is the Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers Movie. I distinctly remember thinking the music was the best thing about that flick, so I’m totally on board with this project! The recent teaser completely turned around my previously grumpy-grump-negative mindset, and I couldn’t be happier! 😄

Edit: Oh, I’m totally mistaken. I’m definitely familiar with other movies he’s scored. Guess that one was just fresh on my mind. Either way, cool!

Re: Rumour: Possible First Look At Mario's Movie Face Appears Online

MagicEmperor

Considering I hated the idea of this movie when it was first announced to be from Illumination (and this was well before the voice actors' reveal), the fact that I looked at this and thought, "Huh, a lot better than I feared!" is a very, very good feeling. Whew! Well, it's just me, of course. And speaking of "it's just me," I thought this looked like a mish-mash of Nintendo's Mario and Captain Lou Albano's Mario from "The Super Show." So, I'll Do the Mario for the remainder of the day.

Re: Get Your Funky Kong On With This Donkey Kong Country Ska Album

MagicEmperor

Thanks! Oh, I'm all over this! This reminds me of how I'd imagine Donkey Kong Country music, back in the 90s, performed in my head, while I took a test or did homework. I imagined renditions that didn't exist, yet this really, really comes close!

I obsessively listened to Donkey Kong Country and "The Mask" soundtracks close together, you see.

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Star Jim Carrey Says He's "Fairly Serious" About Retiring

MagicEmperor

I was utterly obsessed with "The Mask" when it first came out. I even went as Stanley Ipkiss in Mask form for a Halloween. Then my parents, knowing how much I loved that lighthearted comedy, gifted me the original "The Mask" comics. ... Ssssssmokingly huge differences between the original source and that movie, I'll just say.

I haven't seen eye to eye with Jim regarding many things, but I am thankful for some classics (to me). All-righty then.

Re: A Long Lost N64 Video Game Prototype Has Been Released

MagicEmperor

@HammerGalladeBro Same! A friend and I played the whole game in a local arcade, back in my high school days.

I always appreciate atypical playable characters that look bizarre. Heh. I've never heard of this game before, nor am I familiar with the animated film. I'm now curious about both! I'll toss 'em to my Current Curiosities wheelbarrow.

Re: Random: The Rock Will Star In A New Video Game Movie

MagicEmperor

I know what character the Rock will portray, in this upcoming mystery video game movie. Okay, take a look at my avatar. Now imagine him dressed like it, with a blue wig and all. Oh, yeah. The Rock as Luna in... Lunar: Silver Star Story. Yep. Make this cursed fantasy I just came up with come true!
