DA BOIS

I SAW THE MOVIE

I WAS INTRODUCED TO THE UTTER NONSENSE THAT IS MM /aff

I HAVE THOUGHTS

NOT, LIKE, ANALYSIS WHICH MAY COME LATER

JUST THOUGHTS

AND SPOILERS

So I’m studying the boys and at first I was just “They really are leaning into this whole teen thing, huh” but then I thought back to every memory I have of my brothers and how they interacted and was just like- OH

OH WAIT

THIS IS ACCURATE

🤣 The bacon and egg scene- literally my brothers in a nutshell. The constant quotes and references- a little on the nose, but accurate.

BUT I SPENT

THE ENTIRE MOVIE

Waiting to see which turtle would spike my patented they need some hurt/comfort and at first I was leaning towards Leo- BUT THEN WHEN THAT BUS/TRUCK (I forget exactly what it was) FLEW STRAIGHT AT DONNIE AND MIKEY’S WATCHING IN HORROR AND DONNIE IS STUMBLING AND HURT AND OBLIVIOUS AND LOOKS ONLY HALF PRESENT-

Hands down. That got me.

I has a favorite and he’s so innocent and bright-eyed and deserves injury and kidnapping. I will make this happen.

The boys as a family were so fluffy and vibrant and relatable.

The boys as individuals…?

Leo has personality and concerns and attachments and a crush and flaws and strengths and he just felt like an person.

The rest seemed kinda… Plain. Raph had the anger thing going for him, but I have a hard time distinguishing Mikey’s and Donnie’s personalities. Mikey was friendly and liked improve, but that was never really touched on at all. In battle or otherwise- Donnie was the one who was thinking fast and taking the lead when talking to the Superfly. And Donnie was the one who Leo described as the best with people.

I’m not exactly sure what Mikey had going for him…

Donnie isn’t much of a techie, other than his headphones and phone, which is only used casually. He can drive and read comics, but that’s not really an abnormal teen thing. Like, any of his brothers couldn’t have driven using game skills? Or come up with a comic/movie solution to defeat Superfly?

That’s more nitpicks than anything tho. I might have missed things as well- it’s only my first watch. You shouldn’t make any firm decisions or judgements based on a first meeting. Hopefully, I’ll spot differences between them later on or they’ll flush out the characters more in the series.

They pushed a LOT into this movie. Everything was happening all at once. Like, they didn’t skip a BEAT when shifting from evil mutants trying to kill the boys to TCRI is locking them up.

And what the heck did Leo expect April to do?? SHE WAS ON A HIGHWAY BRIDGE?? DID HE EXPECT HER TO JUMP DOWN- SHE’S COMMENTED ON HOW CRAZY THEIR ROOFTOP TRAVEL IS! What makes him think she can do that??? 🤣🤣

At the very least she had to bike around and off the bridge to do anything, and he would have been unconscious by then. Boi just like “she abandoned us 🥺” when she could have been trying to help them while they were being loaded before going to get Splinter.

All hypothetical, of course. Would make for a good OneShot tho.

I like how the April betrayal was just a “I guess I was wrong” type of disappointment and not some dramatic heartbreak, because that feels more realistic to me. Relieved the crush wasn’t played off for laughs and all the brothers seemed disappointed.

April was such a good teen. They never played her off as anything but a normal person who didn’t have quite the right amount of self-preservation. Probably where the journalism comes in.

She was also a good representation that you don’t need green skin to not fit in. Life is hard, man, and I hope the series explores that even tho people don’t scream when they see them, that doesn’t mean life will be any less difficult. School is still prey grounds and people are still predators .

OMGEE SUPERFLY THO

DUDE WAS SCARY. BUT THE WHOLE TIME. I WAS WATCHING.

I COULDN’T NOT LIKE HIM FOR BEING EVIL

Dude got his daddy KILLED after daddy talked about raising him and his siblings and being a loving family by a bunch of weapon-using scary humans that also tried to kill them WHILE HE WAS A BABY

TCRI CREATED A FORMATIVE MEMORY THAT WAS STRAIGHT TRAUMA! OF COURSE HE HATES HUMANS-

That poor fly 🥺😔

The parallel between Splinter and Superfly was interesting. Felt a tiny bit forced at the end there, but I can respect it. Can’t dictate a fam’s every choice. That’s not fair. Gotta let your fam be free to grow and make their own mistakes and create their own morals~

I have a couple other thoughts, but I want to formulate them a bit more. See if I can make stuff off of them.

One last thing before I go…

MY SOCIAL ANXIETY HEADCANON STILL STANDS

NOT ONCE IN THE WHOLE MOVIE WERE THEY SEPERATED UNTIL THE SCHOOL

And even then it’s in a controlled environment. They all know where the other is. It seems safe.

But what happens when that illusion is gone…?

Super Freak, He's Super Freaky!

And we’re back! Greetings and welcome back to “It Came From The Toy Box,” where we look at different toys on the market! Yes, I know it’s been a while. My computer kinda sorta died and it took a while to get a new one, but I did, so now I can finally get back to doing this blog. That being said, let’s get to it. I’ve been wanting to talk about some toys from a movie that came out recently for a while now, and they’re still on the market, so for the next few weeks, we’re looking at some of the figures for the movie “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.” So this week, we’re looking at “Teenager Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Superfly!” Should this bug infest your collection? Let’s find out!

I never got the chance to see “Mutant Mayhem,” due to a lot of life stuff that came up, which means I can’t actually put spoilers in this review since I don’t know any. That being said, here’s what I do know: “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem” is the latest installment of the classic “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” franchise, was released in August of this year (2023, in case you’re reading this in the future), and introduces the turtles as a group of young teens hoping to find acceptance in the world.

The subject of today’s review, Superfly, is the main antagonist of the film. As I haven’t seen the movie, I’m not gonna go too much into who he is, but I can provide some background info on where he came from. In the original Ninja Turtles cartoon of the late 80’s-early 90’s, which was based on a surprisingly dark comic book series, Baxter Stockman was a hapless scientist who, after failing to sell his inventions, was recruited by the evil Shredder to be his personal tech guy. After some defeats at the hands of the turtles, Stockman was eventually transformed into a fly mutant and driven completely insane, as tends to be the case with people turned into fly mutants. Remember kids, if he’s got bug eyes, bug wings, and some extra limbs, odds are he’s not well. Superfly’s whole look and status as a fly mutant villain is taken from this version of Stockman, though I’ve got no idea if they’re the same dude in this version, since I’ve been avoiding spoilers.

In Soviet Russia, fly swats YOU!

The figure himself looks great. Like, I really love the look of this toy and have zero complaints. I absolutely love the torn clothing he wears, and extra details like his left foot bursting out of a sneaker really show the love that got put into designing this figure. I’m also a big fan of the torn up shirt and sweater vest, and the comically ill-fitting tie. It has an air of trying to seem human, but rejecting it in the end. Honestly, it gives me peak “I was once a man” vibes. I also really like the head sculpt on Superfly. Despite the general lack of human facial structure in it, he still manages to have an angry expression, and one gets the impression he’s cocking an eyebrow, if he had eyebrows. It’s a really expressive face for a bug. I’m also a fan of Superfly’s two extra arms at his waist. They’re tiny and can’t hold anything, but I really feel like they’re a nice touch that adds something fun and gross to his whole look. Superfly’s a bit physically lopsided, as you can tell by using your damned human eyes to gaze upon his visage. One arm’s a regular, though blue, arm that can hold his accessories. The other’s a massive, bulky claw arm that looks like it packs a hell of a punch. It’s a cool addition that shows that this guy’s able to throw hands, and I like that it suggests that Superfly’s mutation wasn’t exactly a controlled, successful one. Something very much did not go right when this dude was created. I’m also a fan of his translucent bug wings. They’re not comically small, and they’re not so big that they take away from his own stuff. They’re a nice, medium size.

In terms of articulation, Superfly’s pretty great. He’s got articulated shoulders, thighs, knees, and a neck and left elbow, which all adds up to a surprisingly articulated figure. His two little arms aren’t articulated, but I’m actually fine with that. Really small joints, like the kind those arms would need, tend to become looser easier. My one complaint is that his large, right claw isn’t articulated. I feel like the designers missed an opportunity there, and it also only gives him one hand to hold things with.

"Have you ever heard of insect politics? Neither have I. Insects... don't have politics."

I also really like how balanced this figure is. His insect feet give him a high degree of balance, making up for any issues caused by his huge torso, though his large right arm can cause him to tilt or lean, so watch out for that. Now, earlier, I mentioned that Superfly’s left foot is bursting out of a shoe. The way the shoe’s positioned on his leg, it actually helps balance him. I feel like that’s a really nice touch.

Superfly comes with action packed Male Pattern Baldness!

Superfly, like any good Ninja Turtle toy, comes with a variety of accessories. What I really love is that most of those accessories come attached to a sprue, just like the original toys from the 80’s. In fact, a lot of the accessories are similar to the ones included with the original Baxter Stockman fly. His main accessory, though, is a ray-gun that he can hold in his left hand. It’s both not attached to the sprue and has more paint used on it than the other accessories. Superfly’s wings also come as an accessory and are not attached to the figure. Instead, they must be pegged into his back, which is fine since the connection’s a strong one, so you don’t need to worry about the wings falling off. What’s weird, though, is that one of Superfly’s four wings is actually separate from the other three. It has to be attached to the rest of the wings before they’re attached to the bug himself. Maybe this made packaging him easier? It’s just a bit odd to me. Unfortunately, the way that one wing comes detached means it comes off easier than the other wings. Keep an eye on it, because it does want to come off, so you’ll need to keep pushing it back in as you play with the figure. It’s the one big weakness of an otherwise solid toy.

No, that wing isn't broken. Yes, I checked. No, I didn't break this toy right out of the box and then spin an elaborate lie to cover my ass. It's just a weird design choice.

“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Superfly” currently goes for about $10 at mass retail, which, considering the rising prices of toys, is a terrific deal. He, like the rest of the “Mutant Mayhem” mainline of toys, is aimed at ages 4+, which is a good age for him just so long as you make sure nobody’s still in that “put the small thing in my mouth” stage. And now, the moment of truth: would I recommend this toy? Oh, absolutely. He’s a well-articulated figure with fun accessories and really good detailing, and, aside from the issue with that one wing, he’s really fun to play with. TMNT fans of all ages will definitely like this guy, so I’d say to go grab him as soon as possible. Next week, we’ll be continuing our look at the “Mutant Mayhem” figures with another baddie, so I’ll see you then! This is JS signing off and wishing you Happy Toy Hunting!

An question to superfly: do you have a favorite movie? Something you and your siblings watch or something different?

AT THE SUGGESTION of it being something he watches alongside his siblings, an amused chuckle bubbles past his lips. “ Nah. They ain’t into the sorta things I watch. It’s a li’l…MUCH for them. “ They’d never admit such a thing to him, but it was plain to see that on the odd occasion they did opt to watch something of his choice, they struggled to stomach it. That’s fine by him; not everything needed to be shared with siblings. And with a whopping eight of them, he certainly doesn’t mind having the odd thing to himself.

“ Anyway, you’re talkin’ t’ the wrong guy for this sorta thing. I don’t really care about ‘em quite like that. They’re just a good way t’ kill a couple hours, y’know what I mean ? “ Which, as one would expect, being a group of mutants living in a vacant place save for themselves, lord knows they had plenty of that to kill. Point being, it was not much more than simple entertainment for him. The others were more likely to have a definitive ‘favourite’ than he would.

Now that he’s actually on the subject, though, it has got him thinking. His eyes light up momentarily when a thought occurs to him. “ Y’know what I do watch plenty of. Those piece o’ crap monster movies they put on every October. “ He definitely watches them on his own; the first and last time the lot of them sat down to watch it together, they were too perturbed to consider watching another like it. For a while, he was in the same boat, but after getting a taste of the sorts of reactions they received from HUMANS . . . he felt oddly compelled to revisit them.

A slight shrug of his shoulders; he confesses, “ I don’t even like the damn things, but I think they’re— “ ( A pause as he considers the word for it ) “ —INTERESTING. “ Yeah, sure, most of ‘em all wind up playing out the same way: they’re demonized and hunted down and by the end of it, they’re probably dead DEFEATED. It’s a formula that should have grown tiresome for him, but it just draws him in further. He proceeds to clarify, “‘Watching a car wreck’ levels of interesting. “

@captain-calamaria

It’s actually two, I forgot the other negative thing about the game:

Spyro: Year of the Dragon had a lot of story potential, and I mean a lot.

The story is the Sorcerer’s henchman (if this is the proper word), Bianca and the army of Rhynorcs are sent to steal all the eggs which we later discover that the Sorcerer wants the hatchlings’ wings for her immortality spell, and it’s up to Spyro with the help of Hunter and the newcomers to get them back.

But, we then learn that thousand years ago, dragons used to live in the Forgotten Worlds, which was once filled with magic due to the dragons being the source of magic until the Sorcerer banished the dragons to the other side of the world, making the magic wither away and make some portals stop function.

Unfortunately, the game doesn’t go any deeper than this which, as someone who loves darker, cruel plots (just the idea of the Sorcerer wanting to kill the hatchlings just so that “they stop wriggling so much” when taking their wings out is fucking brutal and dark, imagine if the Sorcerer didn’t wanted to kill them first, it would be outright cold blood torture)... it’s a shame they didn’t went more into detail which brings me more questions than answers:

Why did the Sorcerer banished the dragons? Did they do something to make her angry? Did she had a problem to which they couldn’t solve? Did she banished out of jealous or banished them out of anger for not having the same source of magic capabilities or wings like them and they couldn’t fix that either? Maybe that’s why the Sorcerer wants the hatchlings’ wings, in a way that she’s taking revenge over her lack or removal of her wings, who knows.

How did she found Bianca? And convinced an army of Rhynorcs to join her side? What happened after the eggs were rescued? Did some dragons returned back to Forgotten Worlds or they decided to kept it withered?

Just, I really wished that the game would’ve gone more in-depth about this story because it’s a very interesting backstory which unfortunately isn’t explored.

And then, the real ending felt.. very rushed and anti-climatic. Hell, even both final battles felt.. heh.

In Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage, from what I’ve gathered, you had to bring your A+++ dragon game into the battle, but, in the Sorcerer’s battle, you have to use 3 variations of a cannon (the cannon, a movabl cannon and a flying saucer) to defeat her as opposed to use your own powers or even use a super boost.

After beating the Sorcerer, the Super Bonus Round can only be unlocked after collecting all the treasures/gems and the current eggs that you can collect. The name makes you think that ok, this is just a bonus round.

Actually, no. It’s a bonus round that contains the necessary final egg (yin yang) and the true final battle which is even worst at the final battle as in this one, you simply use a flying saucer to defeat her. Why not Bianca giving you a special spell that she succesfully learned where you get superflame, supercharge (to speed up flight) and superfly all at once for a great, grand and glorious true final battle?

And, the normal ending at the least gave you a small recap about the other characters and if they’re okay or not, the true ending just... shows the dragons with their babies, Spyro hands a baby to a dragon, the baby then burps, the dragon places it on the floor, baby burps again, Spyro does his iconic “oh goodness..” head shake and that’s it.

You go back to the game and that’s it. Honestly, it’s very anti-climatic after a ong, challenging game...

But, really, other than those two factors, I found the game to be enjoyable and makes me want to play it despite it’s flaws.

#captain-calamaria #lps100 derps #only after watching spyro 1 livestream i will make a short post with my thoguhts of both 3 games #cant wait to play them tho

What’s Next for Srisaket Sor Rungvisai?

New Post has been published on http://boxingroyal.com/whats-next-for-srisaket-sor-rungvisai/

What’s Next for Srisaket Sor Rungvisai?

Hogan Photos

The first time Srisaket Sor Rungvisai (44-4-1, 40 KOs), born Wisaksil Wangek, battled Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez (46-2, 38 KOs), the ringside judges seemed like the only ones who thought he won. This time around, they had no say in the matter.

The Thai hurled bricks at the former champion. Gonzalez had never tasted defeat before the two squared off in March. Gonzalez had never received a real licking before they did it again at Carson, California’s StubHub Center, designated the “War-Grounds.”

It is not easy deciphering what is next for the WBC champion. Gonzalez was special, different than any other competitor in the sport’s lightest divisions. It took a decade of flawless work from the Nicaraguan before he landed on HBO. As for Rungvisai, the network will not be in any rush to bring back a name without real drawing power—or one so hard to pronounce.

Naoya Inoue helped make up the “SuperFly” bill on Saturday. The WBO champion brushed aside his challenger and, beyond TV deals, a unification with Rungvisai is at the top of diehard’s wish lists.

Inoue, though, was holding out for a superfight with Chocolatito. Bantamweight is imminent for the Japanese after this weekend, per a report from Asian Boxing.

Juan Francisco Estrada opened the telecast, pulling out a decision over Carlos Cuadras. The performance made him Rungvisai’s mandatory challenger.

Before Srisaket put Gonzalez on the canvas this year, Estrada gave the Nicaraguan all he could handle in a tight decision back in 2012. This is a matchup HBO can get behind—eventually.

In all likelihood, it will not happen next. Rungvisai is due for a hero’s welcome.

The Thai champion solidified his claim to the super flyweight strap. He and his team, headed by Nakornloung Promotions, are calling the shots now.

When Srisaket’s promotional stablemate Suriyan Sor Rungvisai (Suriyan Kaikanha) lifted the 115-pound WBC title himself six years ago, a quick turnaround followed.

Suriyan turned back former champion Nobuo Nashiro in Thailand before dropping the strap to Japan’s Yota Soto.

The Thai boxers’ prodigious promoter Thainchai Pisitwuttinan—only 25 at the time—set up Srisaket (Wangek) with a shot for revenge and he pummeled Sato in eight rounds for the WBC championship in 2013.

Now four years later, Rungvisai will be 31 in December. That is ancient for anybody fighting below bantamweight. With the strap back in his possession, any upcoming defense will not be anywhere but Thailand, where Rungvisai draws a ruckus crowd, unless a career payday is on the line.

In 2014, Srisaket took on the aforementioned Cuadras in Mexico and raked in over $200,000. The Thai made $170,000 this weekend opposite Gonzalez—$100,000 more than he received in March.

So there is money to be made far and away from HBO.

Estrada will get his crack but he will have to go to Thailand to do it anytime soon.
