Time Drops #43: Week of March 10, 2024

   

Article by Sean Wilkinson,
a.k.a. the Ticketmaster

Greetings, Ticketholders!
The Open House Sale did better than expected, turning my small town's market into a Black-Friday-On-Tuesday nightmare of claustrophobia, free samples, insanely good deals, impatience, and single-digit-aged children having the time of their lives like a pack of cartoon-accurate Tasmanian Devils on multiple controlled substances.
Then, the next day hit, and the freezer that I've been working into a manageable state over the past few months became a glaring monument to the true worth of an individual in the face of corporate whims. Plus, we didn't get to keep any of the cool stuff that was brought over from other locations to make our store look more crowded and impressive than it actually is.
Moving on to the good news, I finally got my taxes filed, and my work hours went up, which means I can start to feel a little more secure about my week-to-week finances going into Spring and Summer.

The good news for you fine Ticketholders is that this week is going to be a bit heavier on content. As usual, I will keep the year-in-content list at the end of these posts going forward, in addition to these weekly announcements. So please read beyond the weekly content calendar for more information on the year to come, and remember to comment at the bottom of this post, Become A Ticketholder because I know you haven't already, help out my ad revenue as you read, and follow me on social media at the links below to like what you see and to receive the latest news on my content and calendars thereof.
Here it is:
  • Monday (March 11) - One Piece Multi-Piece #2: The Red Line, Baroque Works, & Alabasta
  • Tuesday (March 12) - NPO #29: February Madness, In March
  • Thursday (March 14) - TBT Anniversary (on Tumblr, Reddit, Facebook, and LinkedIn): Attack the Block

In addition to the List Lookback that I announced in NPO #28, here's what I have definitively scheduled--pending any unforeseen circumstances (like deaths, compromised transportation, financial complications, etc.)--for the year so far (updates pending in future Time Drops as I make more decisions)

  • Thanksgiving - Just the Ticket: Thanksgiving
  • Christmas - Just the Ticket: Maniac Cop Trilogy
I would like to get Zenescope's blessing first, but I'm considering compiling my GFT Retrospective reviews so far into an e-book form. Let me know what you think about this idea down below.

Ticketmaster,
Out.

Stay Tuned #55: Goosebumps (Disney+ Season One)

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Ticketmaster I'm confused, Ticketholders. And disappointed in the lack of originality in visual media over the past few years. On top of the Fear Street trilogy and the TV series I'm reviewing today, I've also been watching the first season of Yellowjackets on Netflix because Paramount+ (like a broken floor scrubber) has a lot of buffering issues. All three are either set in or flash back to the 90s, and include a lot of the same songs and relationship dynamics (troubled same-sex couple, love triangle, toxic relationship, etc.). So the plot points and characters start to bleed together (heh; horror puns...) after awhile. But that doesn't make them bad products on their own merits. By my own actions, my merits (viewer analytics) have diminished significantly this month, so please remember to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, comment your thoughts on the Goosebumps reboot at the bottom of this post, help out my

One Piece Multi-Piece #7: Impel Down

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. Master Of Tickets Before we set sail for this short issue of the One Piece  Multi-Piece , please chart a course by remembering to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, commenting at the bottom of this post, helping out my ad revenue as you read, and joining my Crew on  Tumblr ,  Reddit ,  Facebook , and  LinkedIn  to like what you see and receive the latest snail transmissions of news on my content. I rarely post anything on YouTube, but I'm a frequent commenter and content supporter, and I recently commented on one of Doug Walker's videos as follows: It's not just you, Doug; Buggy the Clown didn't land for me in the anime at first. But he is AMAZING in the Impel Down arc (not going to spoil it, but the basic idea is the "Lock Up" episode of BTAS in Dante’s Inferno with One Piece characters, done as a full season). And that's pretty accurate. With no crew to help him fight, find his way, feed him, or fix

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Omnibuster This is my second week in a row of getting  Omnibusted , this time by compiling my reviews of all three Volumes of  Tales From Wonderland  into one post to pad my content while I catch up a little. Please remember to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, comment at the bottom of this post, help out my ad revenue as you read, and follow me on  Tumblr ,  Reddit ,  Facebook , and  LinkedIn  to like what you see and receive the latest  Grimm  news on my content.
