Grumpy Jii-san Loses his Grip and Buys the Farm
I just found out this chap passed away two months back. I'm sad to hear of it simply because I was very fond of his reviews and the unique way he went about reviewing anime while out and about in the Arizona countryside. His videos can still be view on his YouTube page but for now, here's just a sample of his work.

Kwaidan (1964)
This is one of the greatest horror anthology movies you are ever going to see. Oh! it's just dripping with style.
It's so chock-full of style, Akira Kurosawa did his own version of the Snow Maiden. That's a very good story, actually. We might have to come back to that.
These stories come to us from Lafcadio Hern's book, Kwaidan (go check it out!). He had a pretty amazing life.
Someone needs to do a chibi version of this, like, yesterday. We can call it "Kawaiidan".
Dibs on that gag.

Gen-X Japanese Commercials!
More embedded intensiveness than you can ever hope to imagine!
More...
MAKUDONARUDO!
Oh Thank Heaven!
Come On In, Coke!
The early years of the Terebi Gamu!
TV's & VCR's (but no cable, apparently they were fine with the ol' rabbit ears but hell, they got STEREO far earlier than we did)
A little too much overload, let's cool off with some POCARI SWEAT or a fancy NESCAFE to wash all that down!
A craft now lost to the ages, photography!
And now, misc. crap!
