Royal Warriors 1986

This is an Academy Award® winning Michelle Yeoh movie I have never seen.  It is pretty good, and fun to see Hiroyuki Sanada as well.  Still, with his family showing up in Hong Kong, one can guess what is about to happen.  I am nearly 30 minutes into the movie, which tracks for the oncoming tragedy.  Spoiler alert (2hich should surprise no one):

942. The supreme Strange Change Machine review!

I love this toy, and the story of the history of it.  Sure, it was kinda dangerous, but that was part of the fun!

Villain of the Week- Deadpool

Yeah, I know, ol' Wade Wilson is a very popular character.  And the movie Deadpool and Wolverine was quite funny.  But he wantonly kills lots of people.  In this one movie alone.  Perhaps he is not as obnoxious in the comic books.  I don't know.  The excess of the 90s in his costume says he probably is, though.

941. The royal Rhubarb of 1951 review!

This is a first- a review of a movie about a cat who owns a sportsball/baseball team.

Luciana Paluzzi in Captain Nemo and the Underwater City

From Wiki- Captain Nemo and the Underwater City is a 1969 British film directed by James Hill and starring Robert Ryan, Chuck Connors and Nanette Newman. It features the character Captain Nemo and his submarine Nautilus inspired by Jules Verne's 1870 novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas. It was written by Pip and Jane Baker.[2] back to me:

Jon Astley - Jane's Getting Serious (1987)

"And I could get serious, too..." Jon Astley is an amazing songwriter.  This song got used in a... ketchup commercial, I think.

940. The sharp Sym-Bionic Titan 13-16!

OK, how do we get a petition to get this show finished?  If Family Guy can be revived, why not a far superior show?

Calvin and Hobbes 03-08-1986

This is the first time Godzilla is referenced in the strip.  I was about Calvin's age when I met Godzilla for the first time.

939. The scenic Swamp Thing review!

Good ol' Swamp Thing!  His cinematic career isn't close to his comic book career!
