Time Drops #54: Week of May 26, 2024

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

Welcome to the week to come, Ticketholders!
This was supposed to be another typical, full week of content (minus Tuesday and Sunday, of course; but you know what I mean...), but professional and personal circumstances (namely, my continued trend of being unhappy with my job and shrinking work schedule and the associated diminished financial position, my continuing repayment of my gambling debts--which will take another two years of bi-weekly payments to clear the balance--and the impending pressure of also having to start paying back my student loans beginning this September) have led me to cut back to just three days this week so that I can really focus on putting together my marketing portfolio (which I've started doing several times, but I keep going down a rabbit hole of nostalgia and getting distracted) so that I can start looking for secondary employment.

I still want to give my thanks for getting Just the Ticket past the twenty thousand mark for April, to the tune of almost a thousand views a day (final count for April: 21,543 views).
May looks like it's still going to fall short of that number, due in part to The Algorithm not thinking my choice of content is set to be as popular as Alien and One Piece, and in part because of my "You're not getting The 40 Year Old Virgin or Star Wars this month, so prepare for disappointment!" marketing choices.
You're still awesome, Ticketholders! Especially since you helped me get to another month of over ten thousand views, with a very real possibility of going to at least fifteen thousand, even with this shortened, final week taken into account.
Keep it up, and keep being you!

As usual, I will keep up 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:
  • Thursday (May 30) - TBT Anniversary (on Tumblr, Reddit, Facebook, and LinkedIn): Wedding Crashers
  • Friday (May 31) Stay Tuned #51: Midnight Run For Your Life (Helium Edition)
  • Saturday (June 1) - Time Drops #55: Week of June 2, 2024
Ticketmaster's Note: I will also try to have the next GFT Retrospective and an Anime Spotlight on Metallic Rouge ready for the following week.

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):
  • Weekly Regulars:
    • GFT Retrospective / Zenescope - Omnibusted
    • DB What Ifs / Anime Spotlight / One Piece Multi-Piece
    • TBT Anniversary
  • Thursday, July 25 - Ticket Stubs: Sideways (comparative)
  • Wednesday, September 4 (Jason David Frank's birthday) - Just the Ticket: Legend Of the White Dragon
  • Thursday, November 28 - Ticket Stubs: House Of Wax (comparative)
  • R.L. Stine October (Viewer Beware!):
    • Just the Ticket: Fear Street Trilogy
    • Stay Tuned: Goosebumps Classic
    • Stay Tuned: Goosebumps Disney+
    • Just the Ticket: Goosebumps Double-Feature (Halloween)
  • 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.

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 Ticketmaster Happy 420, Ticketholders! On top of ending as the second month in a row to hit the English dub  Dragon Ball Z  meme by getting a view count over nine thousand ( crushes scouter ), March also ended as my most viewed month of all time...until April decided to come along... Yep, for the first time in Just the Ticket history, we're past ten thousand views for the month and still growing! Thank you all!
