Which is why the Nazis were supported by the famously Communist German industrialists and not the KPD and SPD, of course, and why Goebbels said the Nazis' aim was to erase the legacies of 1776, 1789 and 1917.

But then again, in an age where Putin decides he can LARP the Great Patriotic War for his neo-Tsarist imperialistic ambitions... who says it can't happen here?

If we can set the Nazism spergatry aside for one minute.

New Goosebumps series...on Disney+

I REALLY hope This is gonna be more a scholastic/sony project with Disney just handling distribution (kinda like what happened with the hotel Transylvania series actually) because I don't trust nu Disney to handle this without fucking it up. Look I get Goosebumps wasn't the "greatest thing to ever come outta the 90s." I admit the books are mediocre at best and flawed with how predictable they can be. but I'll always have a nostalgic soft spot for them and I respect them for being one of the few things left from the 90s that hasn't been bastardized beyond all recognition by some woke reboot.


Lesbian couple in the comic series aside..but those don't count. They weren't written by or had any creative output from R.L Stine beyond slapping his name on the covers.

I think the original show will still be on netflix at least so long as the distribution deal is kept up the NEW one will be on Disney plus. Kinda like how the south park show is on HBO max but the new specials are all on Paramount plus.

It’s not profitable to be a nazi so they aren’t gonna get any funding unless some of the feds need a budget increase.

That's what I ment. The new show was originally ment for Netflix. Now it's going to be Disney plus.

This, the Percy Jackson series there making, and the Artemis Fowl movie they made makes me wonder if disney is just gonna dump adaptations of book series from the 90s to the 00s on disney+
I'm trying to think of other series they would try and ruin (i.e books series I read in school that I think were popular ) and best I got is
The Inheritance cycle (although debatable if that would be a loss)
Charlie Bone ( knock of harry potter)
39 clues
Ranger's Apprentice
Deltora Quest

Re-watched The Rocketeer with the fam over the weekend. It never ceases to amaze me that Disney was able to make an action/superhero movie of that caliber. Fun, funny, action-packed, steeped in that "MURICA FUCK YEAH" patriotism I talked about earlier....God, I dread the "sequel".

You'd think they wouldn't care anymore given how they didn't give a shit about the rocketteer for years since it was such a failure in their eyes. Guess nostalgia cash grabs can affect even the most obscure of things though.


Then again Hocus pocus was considered such a failure back in 93 that Disney almost regretted releasing it in theaters instead of on the Disney Channel as they orignal planned. Fast forward 20 years and change later and every year Spirit Halloween stores have entire sections of Hocus Pocus junk for sale.

Wanna know what the worst part is? This "sequel" isn't even Disney's first attempt at "woke-ifying" The Rocketeer:
rocketeer-disney-channel-tn-med.jpg

b396588389a3b919901e334c32adf010.png

In the town of Hughesville, seven-year-old Kit Secord learns she is secretly next in line to become The Rocketeer, a jet pack-wearing superhero who can fly. Armed with her cool new gear and secret identity, Kit takes to the skies to protect Hughesville and its residents from danger. Assisting her on her heroic adventures are her best friend Tesh, bulldog sidekick Butch, and airplane mechanic grandfather Ambrose Secord.

Odd thing here, since I am waiting till I have ingested more Young Justice to spew words in the Western animation thread. I am trying to recall if Amphibia actually ever featured the version of the intro with lyrics in the show? I am sure it did at one point or another since it would be a shame if it never made it in but my search-fu has failed me.

I haven't seen that since 2009 (I've been meaning to re-watch it soon) but I loved that movie growing up, I'm obsessed with that 80s and 90s cycle of movies set in the 30s, 40s and 50s, the original Indiana Jones trilogy, Back To The Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Dick Tracy, The Rocketeer, The Shadow, The Phantom and The Mummy (1920s technically) being the most significant examples.

Exotic retro setting+adventure is one of my favorite formulas, I still have a fetish for anything art deco to this day.

As for The Rocketeer sequel, from what I understand it's going to star a black guy, but it's set in 1947, so they're not straying too far from the era, which is good.

I actually just recently watched the Dwayne Johnson Jungle Cruise movie, it was good actually, despite some irritating as shit Woke moments that damn near sunk it, but not quite (as thankfully it's not most of the movie), hopefully The Rocketeer 2 is at least as good, but damn, those Woke digs they shoehorn into modern movies are like nails on a chalk board to me.
