Bueller...Bueller...Bueller...
No need for alarm, folks. This isn't Hollywood being a complete dick and giving us an unnecessary sequel to a beloved 80s film. Nope, just a teaser for a Honda ad for the Super Bowl.

Looks like I may not attend SDCC either
This has not been a good week for me. First, someone close I know lost his job, and now I have surgery for the right foot scheduled for April 23rd. "But good sir," you're probably asking. "What does the date of your surgery have anything to do with Comic-Con?" I'm glad you asked that. Well, SDCC will be held in July from the 12th to the 15th. Since it takes a good 12 weeks for my foot to heal up through the numerous casts, the date in which I'm fully healed will be cutting it really close with the date of the convention. Since I was in a recovery cast for one week, a standing cast for three weeks, a walking cast for four weeks, and a boot for four weeks, chances are if that sort of time table happens again, I'll miss the convention. Technically, I was originally supposed to be in the walking cast for three weeks, along with the boot, which means I could have shaved off two weeks in the whole recuperation process. But you know how hectic scheduling can get, and these kinds of things can happen. I MAY be able to go to SDCC if I'm only in a walking cast and a boot for three weeks each. By the time I'm out of the boot, I SHOULD be ready to go a few days before the convention begins. At least, in theory anyway. I don't know, I may have to assume the worst and just stay home. It all really depends on luck regarding scheduling. We'll just have to wait and see.

Botcon 2012...eh, I shouldn't bother
While some of you may find this shocking (and everyone else probably not giving a crap, and few of you probably breathing a sigh of relief), I've decided not to go to Botcon 2012 this year. I've said before that I have the means to go to Botcon, I just can't afford registering for it. Well, now I can add a new reason why I won't go: the exclusives for this year. Every Botcon has had a set of exclusives that had a theme to them; this year being called "Invasion", where the Shattered Glass universe and the "Wings of Honor" universe (which is TFCC's version of the G1 cartoon) collide. There are six toys sold in one box, and the toys themselves...look lackluster.

Holy shit, Toei's making exclusive footage just for Power Rangers again!
There's been a lot of talk for what's going to happen for the 20th anniversary of Power Rangers next year (I feel old already). Many have speculated that the next Power Rangers season will either adapt Goseiger and skip Gokaiger, or vice versa. Well now the crazy speculation can begin again, as there has been recent news of Toei making a Legend War with just the Power Ranger teams. That's right, us Power Ranger fans will get our own Legend War like Gokaiger did in the first few minutes of its first episode! While we won't have the luxury of the 15 pre-Zyuranger Sentai teams (nor the Dairangers, for that matter) aiding the Power Rangers in fighting off...whoever's the antagonist, it will probably still look awesome. The last time Toei made exclusive footage for Power Rangers was way back during the last third of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers season 1 and the first few episodes of season 2, called "Zyu2" footage by the fans. I'm excited as hell, and now waiting for the anniversary is going to be all the more difficult.

New Year, new things to expect - 2012 Edition
It's that time again, folks! Since I made something like this last year, I figured, "what the hell," and decided to do it again this year. However, instead of compiling one list of what happened in 2011 and then compiling one list of what will happen in 2012, I've decided to go the lazy route and just compile the latter list. Why? Because that's how I roll. It's a brand new year, so let's see what I give a crap about in 2012.

Every Nintendo 64 game ever released in North America...in 25 Minutes
Here's something really cool I found. Someone who has all 296 N64 games made a little clip show showcasing every single one of them within 25 minutes.
I'm now jealous of this person. :(

How the whole left foot surgery ordeal went...in pictures! NSFW!
Just thought I'd show off some interesting, if somewhat disgusting, pictures of my left foot after the reconstructive surgery, since it's just about healed up (well, it's still in the boot for another three weeks, but whatever).

Obligatory Belated Christmas Post
Happy Holidays everyone! Hope some of you had a very Merry Christmas yesterday, because I sure as hell did! So here's my CHRISTMAS HAUL!
-Flame Red 3DS with Super Mario 3D Land Bundle (I was really only expecting the 3DS, but the game is awesome, too!)
-Red Vs Blue Season 9
-GoldenEye 007 Reloaded for Xbox 360
-New slippers
-$20 from lottery tickets
-$20 from one of my uncles
-$100 from my parents
-$50 gift card to Best Buy
-Beast Wars Complete Series on DVD
-4000 Microsoft Points

Speaking of new year, I should probably get cracking on my crazy speculations/predictions for 2012.

Also a Christmas gift from Hasbro
Kind of odd how I'm showing off two videos that I found within a few minutes, but this also has to be shared.
Hasbro, if you keep this up with the Kreons being funny, I think I may have to get a Kre-O set.
