Hey I'm, Ethan Cross Media, or Ethan (my real name). A person who draws and is into the world of arts and entertainment with animation and video games.
As I wasn’t on yesterday in the afternoon, I went out and watch Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in theatres. I’m giving this at 10/10 for a tribute to the late great Chadwick Boseman (as T’Challa) who passed away from colon cancer in 2020. Yeah, I went before I ate at Rainforest Cafe, while I was at Gurnee Mills yesterday, and I saw this at Marcus Gurnee Mills Cinema.
For you voice acting superfans like me, as I binge watched all episodes of Zootopia+ (as the events take place during the movie) on Disney+. This is for my props to the voice actresses you might be familiar with including Debi Derryberry (Jimmy Neutron), Mona Marshall (South Park and Doraemon), and Jessica DiCicco (The Loud House, Adventure Time, and The Emperor's New School), did Additional Voices by Terri Douglas ADR in Zootopia+. This is from the episode, "So you Think you can Prance".
Yeah, I forgot to take my phone to my local Benihana location, but that’s OK.
For fans/people on here who is familiar with Benihana.
If you don’t know what Benihana is, it’s a Japanese steakhouse chain, you dine-in, watch the chefs cook in front of you on the hibachi grill. It has locations in larger metropolitan cities here in the US in Chicago (where I’m based), New York City, Los Angeles, Dallas, Orlando, Atlanta, and Miami.
I’m going back there this January for my birthday month.
Earlier this morning, I heard that Aaron Carter has passed away yesterday at the age of 34. I remember as a kid, he rapped and performed the theme song for Liberty's Kids (along with Kayla Hinkle, produced by DiC Entertainment (which later merged into Cookie Jar Entertainment, which in turn became DHX Media, now WildBrain) and one of the cartoons I remember watching on PBS Kids back around 2002-2003, and the series is about teaching kids history of the US), he also voiced Joseph Plumb Martin in the series. I even remember hearing his song "Get Up on Ya Feet" on the Kim Possible CD back in 2003. Wow, it's been over a decade since his older Leslie Carter passed away in 2012, as I remember hearing her song "Like Wow!" from the end credits and the soundtrack CD of the 2001 DreamWorks animated film, Shrek. Thanks for making my childhood amazing, Aaron.
For Throwback Thursday, for you people who were around back in 1996, and if you were a kid growing up in the late 90s-early 2000s, here's the Loews Theatres "Enjoy the Show" snipe used from 1996 until around 2004. I saw this first uploaded by Gavin King recording the 35mm from his camera in his room, but 2 days ago, FT Depot uploaded the source video, using a 35mm to digital converter. Yes, long before digital projectors, movie theatres used 35mm projectors, which was commonly used from around the 20th century until around 2009 (but most still used it until around late 2015, when all movie theatres would go exclusively digital, as AMC, Regal, Cinemark, and Marcus announced back in 2009, that they would switch from 35mm projectors to digital projectors).
If you live where Loews Theatres had locations (now AMC Theatres locations), which former Loews Theatres is your local? (e.g. if you live in major metropolitan US cities like here in Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, New York City, and Philadelphia (all metropolitan cities where Loews had locations)). Yes, who here remember going to Loews Theatres a long time ago before 2006?
I fondly remember seeing this as a kid before the movies at my former local Loews Theatres location at Streets of Woodfield 20 in Schaumburg, IL (now an AMC Theatres location). This location opened in December of 1999, and became an AMC Theatres location in January of 2006.
Yes, I grew up as a kid going to Loews Theatres. The last movie I saw in theatres there was Chicken Little back in November of 2005, 2 months before Loews went defunct, and all theatres became AMC Theatres locations.
The Really Loud House premieres tonight at 7:00pm EST/6:00pm CST on Nickelodeon! Here’s a photo of me with my Lincoln plush (Wicked Cool Toys), using the AR filter from The Loud House’s official Instagram account.
