Too Much Awesome

You just can’t keep a good plothole down, can you? I still love Dragon Ball Z, no matter how much I complain and how much I moan about it, but I’m compelled to continually find problems with the story, the characters, and the progression of the series. I consider a plothole anything that isn’t readily [...]

At the end of every year, every site posts their mandatory best of/worst of lists. One of my own new years resolutions was to get at least one of those done before too long. For today I have chosen to approach movies, so while our memories of 2011 are busy going from short term and [...]

Sherlock Holmes is back for another adventure, only this time instead of witnessing amazing sleuthing powers you’ll be treated to guns, explosions and a lot of running.

Today, we at Toy-TMA bid farewell to the fond memories of 2011 and look forward to a whole new year on the horizon. 2012, Year of Democratic elections, Disaster predictions, and the Dragon (gotta love the dragon).

Welcome back everyone. Last week, I began an overview for each of One Piece’s title characters, the Straw Hat Pirates, giving my two cents on their Post 2 Year Time Skip makeovers.

As the devastating affects of a Great War between the World Government, the Shichibukai, and the Whitebeard Pirates comes to a bitter end, Straw Hat Captain Monkey D. Luffy realizes that he and his crew are not yet ready to face the enemies that will be waiting for them in the second half of the [...]

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe might be historically significant in the world of toys but it just couldn’t compete against its contemporaries.

Two weeks ago, I set sail on a voyage to find the perfect flesh and blood actors who would be suitable to play live action adaptations of One Piece‘s central protagonists, the Straw Hat Pirates. As fun as it was, it was also quite a daunting task. So much so that I was yet to [...]
