Whose Line Hoedown - Snow #2


It is the time for all to see, when the snow fall comes early,

When the ideas for new snowmen come out immaturely,

One time it got so bad the cops had to come in to stop the festivities,

How was one supposed to know a snow statue would set off sensitivities!


Whose Line Hoedown - Christmas #2


It has come once again, the time of Snow and Cheers,

When the most famous story is that of a man full of Christmas jeer,

In the modern-day remake of the story, they didn’t need ghosts,

They just needed Tiny Tim to best him with some Christmas-styled boasts!

Whose Line Hoedown - Vacation

 I went on a vacation, with such beautiful beaches in view,
How was I supposed to know that the trip would sink to the dark blue?
For when we first arrived on our holiday oasis,
A Hurricane came through, turned it to ashes!

Link's Awakening (Switch) - Thoughts

 A fantastic remake of a game long ago made for exploration and finding the many secrets of the dreamy landscape of Koholint Island, spreading out across the sea, given Link's shipwrecked nature trapped on the island with no way off, needing Link alone to save the day and free himself from the Island's clutches.

Also, and this is for the remake fans, so I don't forget it, THE CRANE GAME WHY

Whose Line Hoedown - Scuba Diving

 Here I am, diving under the ocean blue,

Searching for a treasure I know here to be true,

I don't know why it didn't come to me before,

but I now search for the hidden Jewel Score!

Star Wars Episode 4 - Thoughts

 One of the most influential movies of all time when it comes to the Science Fiction Genre, that birthed from it a series of movies, both sequel and Prequel, that still defy it's fandom to this very day about what is the best movie of the 9, which created two timelines of stories and created a series still dominated in popular culture.

And on it's own, from beginning to end, a simple story of a Farm Boy wrapped up in a Alliance's mission to stop the superweapon of an evil empire. Simple and to the point.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Manga) - Thoughts

 One of the best Zelda stories retold and given new life, as once again, like the Fate of Atlantis, with added details and characters to more flesh out the tale of the young Link, his Uncle, and the threat Hyrule faced under the rule of Ganon and his disciples, having taken the Sacred Realm for themselves and having nearly killed all of the Knights of Hyrule.

This Link, is but a simple farmer, A farmer with a dream of an apple orchard, forced onto a path to save the princess of the kingdom after he sees his Uncle struck down and being thrust onto the path of his parents and forbearers before him. 

Honestly, if you can't play a Link to the Past, the Manga is a fantastic retelling of the story, quick, to the point, but unique as a sort of embellishment of the tale.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (Comic) - Thoughts

Sometimes an adaptation is far more well known than the story it originally came from. This is true of quite a few stories over the years, from the Original Wizard of Oz to the 1939 film, to Pinocchio and it's Disney counterpart, to even the Swiss Family Robinson. However, sometimes this does happen in a more modern setting, in a more modern time, as with the case of the Fate of Atlantis.

Everyone knows of the point and click adventure which is touted as the true "4th Movie" of the Indiana Jones series, from it's multiple pathways to it's ending, to Indiana's partner of the story Sophia, and the trip around the world being a sort of bridging point between the Religious Artifacts of the original Trilogy, and the more Space-Time trinkets of the new series.

However, what originally began the Fate of Atlantis, was a comic, one that had a few interesting side pieces and characters cut from the game, a much more fleshed out tale (like one of Kerner's attempts at Atlantean relics actually sending Indiana to the Hospital), to Marcus having more to do with the plot and helping Indiana plan his journey to find Atlantis before the Nazis, and even Sophia gets more to do, with her hi-jacked mind by that of the Atlantean Leader, to actually helping Indy on his adventure to find the clues to the sunken city.

From a fan of the game, it is a refreshing breath of air to read a new version of the tale which captivated Indiana Jones fans even now.

Dungeons & Degenerates - Thoughts

 So after Balatro kind of created this sort of gambling Roguelike sub-genre, there were a few other ideas that could have been made and twisted and turned into their own sort of games. However, instead of Poker, they needed to stand out on their own.

And what better to stand out than the second game that is always played by bad guys in movies when it's not Poker, but the game of 21. Blackjack.

Instead of Jokers, it is the cards themselves that run the gambit and the powers, trying to get as close to the limit as possible (With also using their powers to control the game) without busting and taking such a hit it makes you want to restart the entire run.

Whose Line Hoedown - Prom

 We're nearing the time of year, when young love blossoms,

The time of the senior prom, where people dress like albino possum,

The gathering of friends, Acquaintances, and the odd one who calls themselves Zeus,

Everyone just prays that the DJ doesn't start playing Footloose!
