The good folks over at Overtime Comedy have posted the final installment of the Mario In Myspace series. I don’t know if its as funny as the first 2, but since I didn’t post either of those, check out all 3 after the jump.

The long awaited convention video.

We travel to Botcon, accomplish nothing, leave satisfied.

A review of the new 2 disc platinum edition release of Disney’s The Little Mermaid which includes the infamous Priest boner scene!

Remember that show Friends? Remember Thundercats? Right now you’re only able to think about the memorable theme songs to those shows since in function neither was very good.
As a fitting tribute to terrible animation combined with terrible live action, here is a 90’s band’s cover of an 80’s cartoon theme song.
Apparently this gem is found on the second season dvd set for the Thundercats show. But now thanks to INTER-NET, you can see for free and not pay.
The Rembrandts do “Thundercats”

A couple months ago, The official GI Joe Convention had Slaughter as a guest and presented all new toys of his Renegades.
Darn if their introduction in the movie doesn’t make me chuckle to this day, so enjoy!

Two more hilarious videos!

And in case you missed The Rude Awakening of Optimus Prime, here it is.

Anime Jungle has pre-orders for 2007 calendars up and I stumbled upon one for the new Animal Crossing movie that’s set to be released in Japan on December 12th. Powet.tv last reported on this movie in July when a few characters had been revealed through their official site.

A look at this better but still low res picture of the cover courtesy of Yes Asia reveals some new characters:

Among some already introduced characters we see the inclusion of K.K., Mr. Resetti, a Penguin who appears to be Hopper, and some kind of otter fisherman character who I believe is new to the movie. A look at other items available on both Yes Asia and Amazon Japan show that there is a plushie for this weird fishing character, named Rakosuke, due out in the next month.

Not much seems to have been going on at the official site but there is an unupdated blog which tells us nothing we don’t already know that you can check out if you really want to see something.

Stay tuned to Powet to get every tiny detail we can find out about this movie as it becomes available.

Somehow, the news slipped under our radars here at Powet.tv, but the ever-classic Nightmare Before Christmas is being re-released in theaters on October 20th, 2006 – almost exactly 13 years after its original release date.

For those of you who haven’t seen the film yet, you need to get out more. Starting on October 20th! For those of you that have, then you already know what kind of wonder you’re in store for, and you’ll only regret it if you miss this the chance to see this gem in theaters again. (Or, for the first time, depending on what you were doing in 1993.)

In related news, Disney rounded up an eclectic assortment of talent to cover songs from the original soundtrack for a two-disc “special edition” re-release. Contributors include Fall Out Boy on “What’s This?”, Panic! at the Disco on “This is Halloween”, Marilyn Manson also (?) doing “This is Halloween”, She Wants Revenge on “Kidnap the Sandy Claws”, and Fiona Apple on “Sally’s Song”. Disc One will indeed be the original soundtrack untouched, but the second disc isn’t ALL covers of songs that seem questionably fit to be covered – It also includes Elfman’s demo versions of “Making Christmas” and “Oogie Boogie’s Song”. All in all, it’s still a lot of music in one package, even if the premise is somewhat dubious.

So, whatever it is you make of the soundtrack re-release, by all means, do NOT forget the movie. Remember – October 20th. In 3-D. BE THERE.
