The Site is Dead! Long live the site!

Hi gang! The Five Point Podcast will be returning to the internet in a few short months!

(yaaaaay)

We've been kicked off Blip along with other cool and classy people.

(booooo)

But we have a new host over at Dailymotion.com!

(yaaaaaay)

We also have a brand new website over at Wordpress!

(yaaaaaay)

You can see it here!

www.fivepointpodcast.com

(yaaaaaaay)

You can also subscribe to our new podcast feed at http://fivepointpodcast.com/feed!

(yaaaaaaaay)

So, what does that mean for you, the viewer? It means that this website will be kept around, but it's no longer where the real activity is happening. I'll be updating all of the old episodes from Blip to Dailymotion, but this will be our last post here.

A Friend Wrote a Thing!

Hey guys, Bobcat here.  I'm still busy living the whole "two jobs" thing, but I thought I'd take a moment to shamelessly plug a fantasy short a friend of mine wrote:


Synopsis:

In the southern seas of sand and scrub the Adhmeri flesh peddlers rule with an iron fist. When Vera, a Lagothite mage, frees their slaves she discovers an infant nymph, a divine being thought driven into extinction during the Bone War. Now Vera must carry the babe beyond the reach of the slave baron, evading the thundering pursuit of his men and braving the twisted necromantic horrors of the Bone Gashes to ferry the child to safety.

Welcome to the NHK (2006) Review

Five Point Podcast Episode 51: Welcome to the NHK by fivepointpodcast

The inner life of a recluse has never been quite so depressing and hilarious at the same time.

Bartender (2006) Review

Wow, fifty episodes. It seems like just 16 months ago that we were complaining about Baka and Test... here's to the next 50!

So what are we reviewing on this special occasion? Bartender! An anime so boozed up that it required three reviewers to tackle! Give a nice, warm, Five Point Podcast welcome to MadShadow, everyone!

Cutie Honey Comparison Special

Five Point Podcast Episode 49: Cutie Honey: The... by fivepointpodcast

Cutie Honey Month is over, which means we finally get to compare the shows to each other! Who wins and who loses, and what direction is the franchise heading? You'll have to watch to find out!

Cutie Honey the Live (2007) Review

Cutie Honey Month comes to a close with the most recent Cutie Honey show, Cutie Honey the Live. Want to see how a live action version of a 70s anime works?

... Well, yes, there was the movie, but this worked better. How much better? You'll just have to watch.



Five Point Podcast Episode 49: Cutie Honey: The... by fivepointpodcast

Cutie Honey (Film) and RE Cutie Honey (2004) Review

Cutie Honey Month continues with a special two for one episode! We look at two versions of Cutie Honey that came out at the same time and shared the same series bible. One is awesome, the other is very much NOT awesome. Which is which? Listen to find out!


Five Point Podcast Episode 48: Cutie Honey... by fivepointpodcast

Cutie Honey Flash (1997) Review

Cutie Honey Month continues! Sailor Moon could be said to have borrowed some elements from Cutie Honey wholesale (specifically how the her disguise pen worked). So what's Cutie Honey Flash? A version of Cutie Honey that borrows elements from Sailor Moon wholesale! How does it work out? You'll just have to watch to find out.



Five Point Podcast Episode 47: Cutie Honey... by fivepointpodcast

New Cutie Honey (1994) Review

Huzzah, for once, Blip worked the FIRST time!

Cutie Honey month continues! Twenty years after the original series ended, it was brought to home video in the OVA New Cutie Honey. In the continuation of the original Cutie Honey series, Honey Kisuragi must fight bikers and monsters in a post apocalyptic future. Sounds like every single OVA ever made ever. So this is a step in the wrong direction... right?

Featuring special guest stars Burkion's cat and Bobcat's cold.

Cutie Honey (1973) Review

To kick off Cutie Honey month, we start with the series that started all (naturally). Is this a forgotten gem, or a horror best left buried? You'll just have to watch to find out.

Dante's Inferno Review

Uh oh... a movie based on an ultra-violent action video game based on a classical work of literature that wasn't ultra-violent? This must be crap.

Right?

Trigun: Badlands Rumble Review

Five Point Podcast Episode 43: Trigun: Badlands... by fivepointpodcast
A week or so late (thanks a lot, Blip.), we have our review of Trigun: Badlands Rumble. ... Oh lord, another movie review. AND it's a recent addition to a beloved franchise? Oh, this is going to be dreadful. ... or will it? You'll just have to listen to find out!

Excel Saga Review

Five Point Podcast Episode 42: Excel Saga by fivepointpodcast
I am at a loss for words. Aside from this shameless plug: go check out our guest star at Lilac Anime Reviews!
Okay, that's a lie. I have a word. Bizarre.

Tiger and Bunny Review

Five Point Podcast Episode 41: Tiger and Bunny by fivepointpodcast

One is a Tiger. The other is a Bunny. Together, they fight crime. One of those three things is true. Listen to find out which one it is!

The World God Only Knows Review

Five Point Podcast Episode 40: The World God... by fivepointpodcast
The World God Only Knows: It's The Last Starfighter, only with more Dating Sims and fewer clones and aliens.  It's also a premise that requires a master touch.  Does this show work or fall flat on its NERD face?  Guess you'll just have to watch.

Requested by friend of the show Yerocha.  You can see his stuff at http://shadesofgreymanga.wordpress.com/

 

Ghost Hound Review

This makes me long for the action packed, character based drama of Twilight. At least you could laugh at that...

Request by Paranormal Rob: http://planet-rob.com/.  (Rob, we really need to stop this cycle of revenge... we apologize for Hammerman, really!)

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children

Remember that game that had a definitive and satisfying ending? Well, it got a CGI movie sequel for... reasons.


Five Point Podcast Episode 38: Final Fantasy... by fivepointpodcast

Princess Tutu Review

Having two jobs sucks... anyway, a week late, here's Princess Tutu, featuring Paranormal Rob!  You should totally check out his website (planet-rob.com), watch his vids and buy his swag.

In a world where the barrier between reality and fiction, one girl must save the day with ballet.  She fights anteaters, gravity and delusional restaraunteurs, while trying to start a relationship with an emotionless boy who already has an abusive boyfriend.  Also the girl is a duck.

I am not making this up.  To learn more, you'll just have to watch.
