Hey there, readers! Guess what, if you’re over the age of 20, I found something to make you feel old! It’s the fact there hasn’t been a Crash Bandicoot game since 2008 and modern gamers may not even know who he is. I know, it’s sad in more ways than one, but to counter act […]

Let’s begin with a shocker. The Emperor’s New Groove was made in 2000. Before you continue reading, feel free to take a minute to get your head around that! The film marries fairy tale narrative with late ’90s humour; voice recordings would have started in 1998. This includes the frequent breaking of the fourth wall and […]

There are few things that are synonymous with childhood like Star Wars is. It shouldn’t have been all that surprising for my parents that one November morning back in 2003 both my sisters and I ended up pretty late for school because I had to see the first episode of the new Star Wars: Clone […]

Kablam! put together two things I loved as a kid and that was cartoons and comics. Such a simple yet brilliant idea. The best part of Kablam! was the fact that it had many “sketch” segments as well as the main two characters (Henry and June) hosting and getting into their own adventures. These sketches […]

Do you remember the Jackie Chan Adventures? If the answer is ‘no’ then it’s something to maybe add to your list. It was fantastic, and hopefully I’ll be able to convince you of that. To be honest, I can’t remember much about any specific memories of watching this other than watching a lot of it […]

Growing up I was never a kid who swore allegiance to any platform. I had my PlayStation, I played SNES and Mega Drive games at relative’s houses and my dad owned a PC. For the computer we pretty much picked up anything my brother or dad thought looked cool and from there it was how […]

I don’t know about you guys, but for me my childhood could pretty much be summed up as me sitting in front of the TV, watching and re-watching the same damn cartoons over and over until I drove my mother mad. Every day, I’d wake up, watch Nickelodeon during breakfast, go to school and come […]
