![]() ![]() There are a number of new cast members joining the cast for season 2 too. So to you, dearest reader, I will say this: it makes me laugh, if you’re reading this then you have so LITTLE to do you might need a laugh too, and it’s friggin free on YouTube, courtesy of Edgy Animation.Among the cast confirmed for season 2 includes: I tried only once to encourage someone to watch Ronal, and a good long year later I son’t think they watched the second minute yet. I often talk about how every time I try to introduce someone to Bubba Ho-Tep and I get looks of confusion from the poor soul I subjected it to. His only hope to help on his quest is a sex-driven bard, an elf who lost his shelf, and a maiden who spits iron. However if he doesn’t free his brethren fast, the dark lord will use their blood to become a monstrous demon and take over the world. When pulling sentry duty one night he fails to notice an incoming attack and his entire tribe is kidnapped by a dark lord, except him because, well, he’s not much of a threat. ![]() Produced in Denmark (and originally voiced in Danish) by the guys who made a very popular family movie called The Trouble With Terkel (seriously, it was playing in theaters here this Summer alongside a bunch of re-releases even though it was made 10 years ago), the film centers on a scrawny dude who lives among a tribe of legendary -and muscular- warriors. “ I swear on my mother’s merkin I’m NOT Justin Bieber!“ I was so flabbergasted by the sheer lunacy it must have taken to green-light this that I HAD to find and own it on DVD. I discovered that movie by pure chance during my 3rd year of working nights back when I had zilch to do but stay awake I was browsing a now-defunct streaming site called Veetle and I stumbled on it mid-movie.

You know that guilty pleasure we all have, like tough guys wearing pink bunny slippers at home, or girly-girls listening to Norwegian Black Metal in secret at nite, or gangstas watching Murder She Wrote with their grandmas, or celebrity chefs putting Cheeze Whiz on their toast? That makes for a strange dichotomy in my house where I have a special display for movies I’m proud to own a special edition of: The Citizen Kane criterion, the metal-cased director’s cut of Donnie Darko, the restoration VHS of Bridge on the River Kwai, the Monty Python 16-ton Megaset… and the bargain bin DVD of Ronal the Barbarian. ![]()
