Free-For-All Friday Thread #14!
Hey guys — it’s Free-For-All Friday again!
Talk about whatever you want in the comments. Tonight is all about YOU!
It’s the last Friday of September, so make it count!
Side note: I always hate to bury “media” pieces on the main page almost as quickly as they’re published, so if you missed them this week, there’s a new Madd Matt video and a new Purple Stuff minisode!
Want a little background noise for tonight’s thread? Okay, got you covered:
Here’s the whole Hocus Pocus soundtrack, as suggested by KelseyW!
Kelsey adds: “Hocus Pocus is one of my all-time favorite movies. The soundtrack screams fall and Halloween to me. I have an early childhood memory of my sister and I running around the living room to a certain part of the end title music while my babysitter watched in amusement. To this day, I try to watch this movie once or twice during every Halloween season.”
Happy Free-For-All Friday!
Early ’90s Fox Kids Halloween Commercials!
Daaaaamn, here’s a really great pick from jjwspider:
It’s a huge block of kid-targeted TV commercials that ran on Fox Kids during the 1992 and 1993 Halloween seasons. An absolute treasure trove of nostalgia.
From jjwspider: “I believe it was in 1992 when Beetlejuice showed up with some other Universal Monsters to host the Saturday morning lineup. Take a look at the 7:56 mark for his first appearance. There are some other gems like the “Jason/Michael Myers” appearances on Bobby’s World (9:05) and the Home Alone 2 ad (11:03).”
So many goodies in here. Enjoy!
Scary Video Game Enemies!
Here’s a very cool vid that was suggested by Matt. (Meaning a different Matt. Though I wouldn’t mind swiping the credit.)
It’s the Top 80 Scary Enemies in Video Games, put together by a popular YouTuber that I’ve never heard of, because this is sooo not my wheelhouse.
Even so, I know a good vid when I see one. This was obviously well-researched, and the narration is restrained enough to be more complementary than obtrusive.
I can’t wait to fall asleep to this!
Casual Tuesday Thread!
Sorry, didn’t have time to get a post ready for tonight.
Instead, here’s a casual Tuesday thread to talk about whatever!
