Just the Ticket

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Hooked Omnibuster. If I had more time, energy, and forethought, I would have queued up a LibriVox reading of  Peter Pan  and had a Cover Charge  review ready to release yesterday so I could end Hook  & Book  January with a truly Neverland-themed week (I'm still reviewing Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare  on Friday). Like with The Second Jungle Book , I do  plan on giving it my time in March to coincide with my Neverland  Complete Omnibus review collection. But for now, I've seen the 1953 animated movie , the Mary Martin stage film , Hook , and  Once Upon A Time Season Three, so I'm content to not have the reading experience just yet, and I (mostly) enjoy this miniseries just fine without it. Neverland  Volume Two Hook It's kind of a shock to be coming back to a 2011 miniseries (the Trade Volume was published in 2012) after spending so much time with a trilogy that spanned several years (almost l...

Content Calendar Announcement, Week of January 25, 2026 by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Ticketmaster. This past week was rough , Ticketholders! Between the big changes at my paying job, the "Google doesn't recognize Blogger and won't let you switch platforms" scare, and giving myself too much content to produce for my resulting energy level, I ended up posting and/or promoting things later than I originally planned. Good news on the  Gachiakuta  front, though, because the dub season finally finished airing, so I'm confirming a March publication date as of now. Probably late in the month because I have four other series to catch up on for February reviews (see the SMART Plan Outline below for what they are), and I should probably get my ass on that right away because I don't have much time left. I also plan to read and review Rudyard Kipling's  Second Jungle Book  in March to coincide with my Jungle Book  Trilogy compilation and Holiday Special review for the...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Ticketmaster. Just the Ticket   takes things from the jungle to the forest this week as I dip my toes back into  Rhys Frake-Waterfield 's budding public domain horror franchise, the  Twisted Childhood Universe , for a look at Bambi: The Reckoning . For quick access to this and other reviews in the franchise as they're published, you can click my TCU tag , or the following links to read my thoughts on the two Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood & Honey films. Just the Ticket #124: Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood & Honey Just the Ticket #188: Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood & Honey II Directed by Dan Allen (the 2017 Unhinged remake , several short horror films, and a handful of other "four friends go to a place and/or do a thing and get killed" movies), Bambi: The Reckoning  is a fairly basic "family gathering in a house in the woods" movie, but with the presence/killer/monster being a 'roided-out, zombified, Toxic Avenger version of...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Omnibuster. In the short time since I finished writing yesterday's review/retrospective on Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book , I learned the new, non-deprecated way to export my entire blog to a new platform. I will probably be doing that sometime in March (when I have less new content planned), so look forward to that, and fingers crossed I don't screw it up (why did I say that‽). With that said, it's time for the final book of Zenescope 's gender-swapped Jungle Book Trilogy, subtitled Fall Of the Wild (a pun that would make me expect some Jack London references, if I had any knowledge of his books beyond their titles and a movie I barely remember watching as a kid ). As The Jungle Book is pretty much a self-contained story with no impact on events in the larger Grimm Universe, I'm not worried about the fact that this third miniseries was originally published three years after the first. But it does present some intere...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Froggy Pagemaster. That byline works two ways, Ticketholders! First is that I had kind of a scare last Thursday night when Google Chrome didn't know how to access Blogger for four straight hours, and I strongly considered exporting my content to another platform (hopping, if you will). It's still in my thoughts to do so, but the instructions are several years old and no longer apply (which you can also take to mean that A.I. can now add an extra instance of being wrong to its learning database). There's even a help topic on Google where someone asked why the old instructions no longer work, and it was flagged as a duplicate question (even though it wasn't), locked out of receiving responses, and additional information on the subject links to a page that no longer exists, almost like Google doesn't want anyone to Frogger their way out of Blogger so that years of content can just go poof when they start to feel like it's the n...
