A Curious Synchronicity
Jan. 9th, 2024 08:08 pmChecking Satellite News a few days ago, I noticed an item that the latest release from Rifftrax involved an animated Little Mermaid movie; not the animated Little Mermaid movie, of course, but an older film acknowledged as having been animated in Japan. I thought a bit of how I’d dared myself to chance Rifftrax at last when they’d taken on something that was part live-action Japanese special effects, part Japanese animation, but also a bit of how I hadn’t gone on from there to see if any of their other feature-length “riffs” also refrained from what I’d react to as “cheap shots at specific familiar targets” (and others might react to me with “good grief, he’s still dwelling on that.”)
( Thinking ahead in any case )
