Greetings, listeners, and welcome back to "West Virginia Commonplace." I'm your host, Jr., and today we're about to dive into a topic that still makes my blood boil: Earthworm Jim. This iconic character made his mark as both a side-scrolling video game and an animated show that took the animation block by storm. But buckle up, because the story of Earthworm Jim involves wacky adventures, a legal quagmire, and a legacy that remains enigmatic to this day. Let's delve into the absurd and surreal world of Earthworm Jim! Episode Highlights: 1. The Birth of Earthworm Jim: Video Game Phenomenon: Taking a trip down memory lane to 1994 when the first Earthworm Jim video game was released. Discussing the unique gameplay, quirky characters, and memorable moments that captivated players. Reflecting on the challenging nature of the game and the iconic cow-launching scene that became a staple. 2. From Pixels to Animation: Earthworm Jim's Leap to the Small Screen: Exploring how the success of the video game led to the creation of an animated series in 1995. Discussing the animation style, surreal storytelling, and characters like Cycrow and Princess What's-Her-Name. Recognizing the show's blend of humor that appealed to both adults and kids, making it a cult hit. 3. Merchandising and Multimedia: Earthworm Jim's Phenomenon: Delving into the phenomenon that Earthworm Jim became, extending beyond video games and animation. Discussing the emergence of action figures, comic books, and other merchandise related to the character. Reflecting on Earthworm Jim's impact as a multimedia sensation that resonated with fans of all ages. 4. The Legal Quagmire: A Clash of Intellectual Property: Uncovering the disputes and legal challenges that arose between the game's creator, Doug TenNapel, and Shiny Entertainment. Discussing how the transition from video game to animated series led to conflicts over character design and concept rights. Recognizing the impact of the legal battles on subsequent video game releases and the overall legacy of Earthworm Jim. 5. Sequels, Cancellations, and the Mysterious Legacy: Exploring the mixed reception of sequels to the original Earthworm Jim game and the cancellation of planned releases. Discussing the surprising release of "Earthworm Jim 3D" by Rockstar for the Nintendo 64 and its reception. Reflecting on the enigmatic legacy of Earthworm Jim, its limited availability, and the challenges of preserving its history. Conclusion: As we wrap up our exploration of Earthworm Jim's journey from pixels to animation and the legal quagmire that ensued, we're reminded of the fragility of intellectual properties in the entertainment industry. Earthworm Jim remains a quirky and beloved character that has left an indelible mark on gaming and animation, despite the challenges that have threatened his legacy. Join us in our next episode of "West Virginia Commonplace" as we continue to uncover the hidden gems and intriguing stories that shape our cultural landscape.

A Video Game Time Capsule: The Complete History of Video Games, presented by MRIXRT @reallycool

From 1993 to 1996, the gaming industry underwent a metamorphosis, driven by technological advancements and shifts in player demographics. As the maturing audience craved more intricate narratives, developers answered the call, transitioning from cartoonish titles to thought-provoking themes. The period witnessed the rise of CD-based games, igniting fiercer competition among industry giants like Nintendo, SEGA, and Sony. The advent of the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) marked a significant self-regulatory step, while the first E3 solidified its role as an annual gaming spectacle. The epochal shift from 2D to 3D, propelled by powerful Graphics Processors, redefined gaming immersion and mechanics. Amidst these transformative years, the PlayStation emerged as a dominant force, reshaping market dynamics and setting new standards for console gaming. In 1993, the industry leaned towards mature content, with congressional hearings aiming to balance creative freedom and responsibility, growing anticipation around Nintendo's "Project Reality," and a behind-the-scenes look with David Sheff's "Game Over." 1994 marked an era of maturation and innovation, highlighted by the establishment of the ESRB, the unveiling of the Nintendo Ultra 64, and the onset of digital journalism through Game Zero magazine. 1995 saw heightened competition and community engagement, propelled by the rise of CD-based gaming via Sony's PlayStation, the inaugural E3, and the undying rivalry between SEGA and Nintendo. By 1996, the dawn of the 3D era was unmistakable, with Graphics Processors transforming game design, the PlayStation emerging dominant amidst the decline of several home consoles, and the industry bidding adieu to 2D, embracing the immersive realms of 3D gaming.Featured Games:Doom, Myst, Secret of Mana, Star Fox, Dune 2, Super Metroid, Final Fantasy VI, Donkey Kong Country, Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, Virtua Fighter, Ridge Racer, Chrono Trigger, Command & Conquer, Super Mario World 2, Earthworm Jim 2, Rayman, Descent, Phantasmagoria, Tekken, Super Mario 64, Tomb Raider, Quake, Return Fire, Resident Evil, The Neverhood, Minesweeper, and Crash Bandicoot. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ (00:00) - Episode 4 (00:06) - 1993 (14:27) - 1994 (32:08) - 1995 (52:41) - 1996 Thanks to our monthly supporters FS Tabreez Siddique Mynx Mopman43 Ritsu William Kage Studio Devil Dallay_g Razu John H The Golden Bolt MykonosFan ErbBetaPatched Vornak Killer Space Serra Mr. Lindsay Autocharth History With Kayleigh Benjamin Steele Nick Makris minimme

Sometimes you just have to draw a line. Yeah, ain't that the way these days. I just gotta say some stuff on "The Super Mario Bros. Movie". My issue going into this movie was pure fatigue. It wasn't fatigue from over saturation of blockbusters, I actually don't watch that many blockbusters these days. I just had this sinking feeling every time I saw an ad for this movie. Everyone is going to be talking about this. No one has any reason to like this over anything else. Everyone is going to ask me about this movie a hundred times because they know I like Mario games, and animated features. This may be strange to hear from a guy that does a podcast discussing movies... but I just didn't want to formulate an opinion. I didn't want to watch it. I didn't want to discuss it. I didn't want to have to disagree with people or not be excited for it when they wanted me to be.   You may have picked up along the way that I am a fan of animation. I was the kind of kid at age ten to twelve that wasn't quite ready for "Predator". Instead I was hip deep in "The Simpsons", "Earthworm Jim", and "Ren and Stimpy" cartoons. Looking back I think it was less that I only enjoyed comedy and more that I resonated hard with the raw emotional expression of the cartoons that were around in the 90's. I also believe this is what attracted me to anime. A wild array of emotional expression all pulled off with what was at the time, a beautifully minimalist art style. To put that another way. Very few lines in the face that get across specific emotions. Not just angry, or crying, but pensive, nervous or vulnerable, hanging on someones words. That kind of stuff.   NUANCE: THERES NO ROOM FOR NUANCE ANYMORE!!!   There is nuance in "The Super Mario Bros. Movie". Executed in a way that I have not seen in a hot minute. Family movies or what we used to call "PG-13" type adventure movies are in a very bad place right now. While I'd like to just blame Marvel or Disney while I point and stare holes through them that would not only be too easy, but also wouldn't get to the root issue. The problem is that kids entertainment has to be so strongly separated from adult entertainment by style and tone that they have no room for any real emotional tension. You can have a character say out loud they are frightened... scared, but you cant portray the scene with visceral tension. You cant ever make the kids, or more importantly their hyper vigilant parents, actually feel bad. That is the first issue.   The second issue is that blockbusters have slowly consumed the PG-13 space entirely. To the point that when "Deadpool" was announced most of the discussion revolved around it being rated "R". In my opinion "Deadpool" could have easily been every bit as edgy as it was and be a PG-13 movie. Just shoot around the blood a little bit, and bleep a couple of "Fucks" like they did in "The Dark Knight". Tell me "Deadpool" is more emotionally intense than "The Dark Knight". Not on paper. Don't describe to me what happens during Deadpool's origin events, deal with whats on screen. That is how how movies are rated. Not by concept, but by what is shown on camera and how the rater feels about it. No, "Deadpool" was rated "R" because it broke to drastically from the Marvel formula, so it needed to be marketed that way. They anticipated a push back and leaned into it, and it worked. The audience had been too strongly conditioned on tone, and "Deadpool" straight up kills people on camera. Not just crazy villainous space creatures from beyond the moon, but average people. See blockbusters don't destroy cities because they have gone mad with CGI power, they do it because it has a big visual impact, increases the threat of an enemy, and avoids killing individual people on camera. You know people are dying, but you don't have to watch it.   Characters die on camera in "The Super Mario Bros. Movie". It isn't grotesque, but its there. Bowser actually destroys things, he actually wants to control someone. He has real goals beyond being evil and he displays the power to make his ambitions a reality. He isn't an obnoxious bumbling oaf that never actually does anything while seeming to hassle the main characters impotently throughout the movie. He blows up a castle, he has plans, he connects to his lackeys. He kinda plays a bit like "Helmet" from "Spaceballs" if he were a jock. He has a personality one can describe and compare to other characters. You can discuss him beyond his action beats. Gold star.   Whats the point Tubes? Tie it all up. Ok... ok.   The point is that without tension, the characterization in a movie has no foundation to stand on. Whether its a small flick about a kid finding a dog, or a plumber using his parkour skills to help save a kingdom, its all about how you get people invested in a character. I am of the belief that you need some kind of raised stakes to really make a character impactful and stick with your audience. Especially if they are kids. I can see kids really hanging on to this movie. Watching it every few years. Maybe they wont always get the same kick out of the childlike pace, but I dont think they will ever look back on it and consider it a waste of time. They won't ask themselves "Why did I like this so much?"   They like it because Mario and Luigi have each other's backs. They don't just say they do, they actually get to show it. Mario and Peach aren't having catty fights about their roles in the movie, or what they do and don't get to do. They work together. They get along pleasantly. They aren't obnoxious. Peach encourages Mario and helps him learn the ropes. Mario isn't the destined hero, or entitled to anything. He even hates mushrooms. He is just someone that is somewhat familiar to Peach, and Peach needs all the help she can get. How nice is it that he's just a guy trying to do his best and he isn't acting dismissive to her so she can prove him wrong later. Or some kind of elementary school horse-shit scripting like that. God I hate movies.   At the end of the day, the word is class. I talk often about this with another friend of mine when it comes to gaming. I say Nintendo has class. They usually aren't as crass about hitting the kids up for that next five bucks, and with this movie they've proven once again that they are the only game in town for simple likable characters that offer themselves to the crowd and wait to see what we will gravitate toward. They try to charm us, they don't tell us what they think we want. Have movies become so sanitized that I am going to sit here and tell you that "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" bucks trends and bravely carves out it's own path? Well... yes, yes I am. Because that is exactly what it did. I sat there gunning for it hard, and it won me over. Solid plot construction, good character moments, a bit of an edge, and not one single character annoyed me or came off with that horrendous back-biting tone that ruins so many of these movies.   Judged against all movies I'd like to call this a decent family picture with some laughs, the bare minimum. However, judged against it's peers and in the current landscape, I'd say it goes a step beyond and turned yet another cattle call casting/event movie and turned it into something with some entertainment value in it.   Good on you Nintendo. You made a billion dollars and i don't have to make that "UGHhhhh" sound every time I see your characters. Well done. Maybe you can make a "Starfox" feature that is better than "Star Wars", there has never been a better time to try.   With Love,   2bs

And so, if that will eventually exist, why not start building it now?With that thought in mind, David began to build that technology and had some massive breakthroughs. He demonstrated that you could play a game from the cloud with the same feeling as playing with a console on your table. That caused people's heads to pop off. Samsung wanted to work with David to power its video game strategy, and Sony bought the company.David's employees made significant amounts of money from the company's success and eventual sale. One of the employees decided to leave and start his own company using the money he had just made from the exit to Sony. As a CEO, David was committed to working with PlayStation. So he was watching this former employee build his own company.The employee contacted David and asked if he'd be interested in investing in his new company. David decided to check out the company. The guy demonstrated what he was working on, which was virtual reality. The company was called Oculus. David sat down and put on the VR headset. Then he started getting motion sickness because he was moving all over the place. He couldn't wait to finish the demo.David was initially very interested in investing in the company because he genuinely believed in his former employee. But after the motion sickness, he needed time to think about it. He researched and read some military papers on how the military had tried their hardest to stop motion sickness but had found no solution as it's biological. David decided to pass on the opportunity to be a founding Oculus investor.The company was a huge success and was bought for billions of dollars. David would have made hundreds of millions of dollars had he invested in the company.Lessons learnedWhen you really believe in somebody, go ahead and support them.Bet on the person, not the idea.Andrew's takeawaysWe get stuck into frames of reference, and sometimes we get beholden to those references, and we can't think beyond them.Actionable adviceIf there's...

If you're a fan of video games and The Matrix franchise, you won't want to miss Jr's latest episode of WV Uncommonplace. In this segment, Jr gets nostalgic as he talks about two classic video games - Enter the Matrix and The Matrix Path of Neo - which were developed by Shiny Entertainment, founded by none other than Dave Perry of Earthworm Jim fame. Jr shares his disappointment that these games are not backward compatible with newer consoles, and he laments the fact that there has been no tie-in video game for the new Matrix movie. But Jr doesn't stop there. He believes that Warner Brothers and Atari could benefit greatly by re-licensing these games and getting the original voice actors involved. And he isn't afraid to call them out on it. Jr expresses his desire for companies to revive these games, citing the commercial success of actor Keanu Reeves and the potential market for updated versions of these games. The segment ends with Jr speculating why some licensed products turned out decently while others were downright terrible. It's clear that Jr is passionate about video games, and his enthusiasm for this particular topic is contagious. If you're a fan of The Matrix, you won't want to miss WV Uncommonplace's latest episode. Jr's perspective on the topic is refreshing and informative, and his enthusiasm is sure to have you searching for an original Xbox and an HDMI converter so you can enjoy Enter the Matrix and The Matrix Path of Neo all over again.
