Thrills: A Retrospective

The life of a hardcore junkie.

Addendum:

  1. The bounty hunter, his hand-shaped ship, and the Dinobots, from Age of Extinction
  2. (spoiler) Same film: Optimus Prime blasts a hole in Frasier Crane’s chest
  3. The downhill scene from 2014’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (with the truck and the snow)
  4. The brain guy, masterfully voiced by Brad Garrett, slapping Shredder in the face in the 2016 Ninja Turtles sequel, and saying “Did I get a little tentacle mucus in your eyes?”
  5. I didn’t see the TMNT movies in the theater, so I’m not sure why I felt the need to bring them up here
  6. Probably because the sequel was pretty thrilling, even if the first was only decent
  7. The guys who played Bebop and Rocksteady were fantastic; Bebop was Uncle Ruckus on The Boondocks
  8. Tyler Perry played Baxter Stockman as he was originally imagined in the old TMNT comics, instead of the whitewashed version from the 1987 cartoon, and he was terrific
  9. No part of Disney’s “Star Wars” thrills me in the slightest
  10. I’m aware of the irony that Disney provided the first thrill depicted
