Because of my recent Fallout-induced Post-Apocalyptic infatuation, I’ve been enjoying anything/everything nuclear-holocaust related, including the abysmally awful 1977 film Damnation Alley, which is a lot of fun to watch despite the terrible acting and even more terrible special effects. As a result, I found in a Recommended video on YouTube this little gem of a video, which includes a Congressional Representative lobbying the people of the United States to support his plan to nuke the ever-loving shit out of Korea during out Conflict there. The music (which I admit thereby qualifies this as more of a Random Music Monday entry) really makes the video, but I really loved the way the film was edited together as well, and all-in-all it reminded me of something not unlike an intro film for a classic Fallout game. Because of this, it’s our Thursday Youtube Theater experience for this week.
Also, as a Let’s Play! Update, I’m going this weekend to see “The Other Guys,” with Will Farrel and my personal hero Mark Wahlberg (okay maybe hero is the wrong word). Afterwards, probably on Sunday, I’ll be working on playing through Dark Forces at least to the half-way point, and then sometime this week I’ll probably record my commentary and/or edit together some title sequences and info-breaks and then upload them to the good channel. I’m also still trying to decide whether or not the concurrent Let’s Play should be the absolutely mind-numbing Star Trek The Next Generation: Echoes from the Past for Genesis, or if I should maybe start an LP for Fallout 1. Since I never finished it, though, and it’s such a great game, I may decide to save that one for later on, when I have more time to dedicate to making it a really, really good LP instead of something half-assed like I’m sure Echoes from the Past will end up being.
