I used to be a big fan of X-Entertainment / Dinosaur Dracula. In fact it's partly what inspired me to start this blog.
A few days ago when I launched this page I went to Facebook to put the link on the Dinosaur Dracula page, even praising him for his work, to which I got NO response.
Well tonight, I visited that page again, only to find out I have been blocked from commenting on anything.
From now on, I can honestly say I will no longer read his page. I have no respect for someone who can't help out someone else. I have always thought that the idea of buying toys that are over 20 years old only to open them and take ridiculous pictures of them was absurd, however now I can see that this man is nothing more than a self absorbed douchebag.
If any of you know this guy, or read his page, feel free to tell him what I wrote, at least that would mean that he's reading.

Pee-Wee's Playhouse the set everybody MUST own
Pee-Wee's Playhouse has to be one of, if not, the best Saturday Morning shows EVER.
This box set (divided between 2 volumes) was a great Amazon.com score for me a couple years ago.
While most every episode follows the same pattern, they are all in their own way so different and entertaining. Pee-Wee's Playhouse was very much ahead of it's time in the 80's. It allowed us all to use our imagination, and be creative, while at the same time, having educational and comedic value to it.
Nearly every episode stars right away with Pee-Wee telling us all good morning. Then one of the other characters (Chairry, Magic Screen, Globey) ask Pee-Wee what the secret word is.
The "Secret Word"?????
Pee-Wee then turns on Conky 2000 to ask. Conky prints us out the secret word.
You all know what to do whenever anybody says the secret word, right?
Of course! SCREAM REAL LOUD!!!
The story continues with Pee-Wee in all sorts of adventures (and misadventures) featuring all his friends like Miss Yvonne, Cowboy Curtis, Mrs. Renae, Reba the Mail Lady, Ricardo, Tito, Captain Carl, and the ever important King of Cartoons.
And we always have such prominent features like, Snack Time and a Penny Cartoon.
If you've been living under a rock for the last 25 years, or just need a good way to re-live your childhood, Pee-Wee's Playhouse is the way to go.
While you can pick up these tapes on Amazon for about $9 a set, they are also on DVD.
And don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the Christmas Special, I'm simply trying to contain myself and hold off on that until December.

$5 Halloween movies at Best Buy
Went to Best Buy today, hoping to pick up The Pee-Wee Herman Show on Broadway dvd.
Of Course, I get there and they don't have it at all.
While walking around looking for something to salvage the trip, I noticed a couple racks of Halloween themed dvds for $5. They have tons of Goosebumps movies, the usual Nicktoons, and Charlie Brown.
But one stuck out more than anything. A GREAT movie that I remember watching time and time again.
Little Monsters
Starring Fred Savage and Howie Mandel, this is the story of every child's biggest fear, Monsters under the bed!
But little did we all know, even though they are awful looking, they live in an underground world of junk food, video games, and staying up all night!
Being a big Wonder Years fan, I love how this movie has Fred Savage, and Daniel Stern playing his father.
Head to best buy and grab a copy of this. You'll get every bit of $5 of enjoyment out of watching it.

Garage Sale Finds 9-29-12
Quite a few good things today.
I'm a big fan of Garage Sales and Thrift stores. It's truly amazing what kind of things you can find from your childhood just laying around in someone else's home.
First up I found a working Nintendo 64 for a buck. Even went and bought Star Wars Racer.
Found a Ren & Stimpy VHS
Some kind of Power Rangers SPD Command Zord (will have to do more research on it) for a dollar,
A Star Wars 3D Star Destroyer Puzzle for a dollar
And now, the 2 big finds of the day
First up a talking Baby from Dinosaurs $1.00
