They were mentioned previously, but these some of my personal favorite heavy-hitters: "At 0830 hours, alien forces boarded the Marathon. The current situation is dire. All personnel are required to arm themselves and fight for their lives." -Leela, Marathon ship A.I. "Kain is deified...

I would revive Tony Jay. I still need his voice for a dozen imagined video games and cartoons. I would kill... Jimmy Buffet?

My favorite RPG would be Legend of Legaia for the good old PS1. It came out when I was at an extremely impressionable age, and I imprinted to it like a freshly-hatched baby duck. I think the graphics hold up nicely to this day, and I really like the story. Plus, unlike so many RPGs these...

That friggin' pit in the Mystic Cave Zone of Sonic 2 is a good candidate, although it primarily punishes you for unlocking Super Sonic. For years, the bane of my existence was the part in the second act of the Carnival Zone from Sonic 3, where you are locked in a small room with a rotating...

Bungie's old Marathon series! If you can get past the dated graphics (think the old Doom games, with less Satan and more aliens & rampant AI's), it's a blast. Its got a surprisingly in depth and interesting storyline, mostly told through terminals and crazy AI's. You can't help but love...

Sure, The Watchmen movie isn't exactly original, since it's based on a graphic novel older than I am, but it is a story forged in a time when originality wasn't quite dead. I too am hopeful after seeing the teaser, and it certainly helps that the Smashing Pumpkins song fits disturbingly well...

Cowboy Bebop is indeed a grand show. I'm also a big Ghost in the Shell fan, although it doesn't quite hold up to the original manga, in my opinion. Same with Akira... Do yourself a favor and read all six volumes of Akira. It's simply fantastic. I suppose I need to watch more of the...
