Oh and Battletoads are there too.

My father is a respiratory therapist, and hearing about this ad makes me wonder if he saw it and got convinced. This was around the time he started going to school for it

God! I rented the Battletoads as a kid and it made me not like the games anymore. Also, are you watching the Wing Commander movie? Or the weird but interesting cartoon show (someone gets sucked out an airlock and dies in the first episode).

This is almost apropos of nothing, but i figured Kole and Gary would get a smile out of this: You know what's a surprisingly good (almost certainly unintentional) adaptation of Dark Souls/Elden Ring? The 3rd episode of the 2nd season of House of the Dragon has a maybe 2 minute sequence of a character infiltrating a ruined castle that is the closest a piece of film has captured that kind of atmosphere. One shot had me say out loud (to the minor confusion of my friends) "i swear to god i fought Ornstein and Smough in that room." If you've got Max access (or don't, steal from Warner Discovery, they suck shit) it might be a fun little treat for your Adaptation Decay brains.

It figures that Virgil Texas would end up on an obscure children's cartoon.

Hey they ride jetskis in that one level, let's make it a surf rock pastiche!

This opening theme is dire
