Battleship. It's just such a bizarre license for a movie, and certainly one nobody ever asked for. (Well, outside Hasbro execs clearly desperate for another Transformers-level hit.)
Oddly watchable in a big dumb fun kind of way, at least. And hey, it has Jesse Plemons not playing a total sociopath, so that's neat.
It's always a fun surprise to go back to an old cartoon and recognize so many names you didn't know back then. I see several longtime voice actors like Frank Welker, Mary Kay Bergman, Maurice LaMarche, Cam Clarke, and Jim Cummings, plus some unexpected one-off voices like Phyllis Diller and Ted Turner.
Harmony of Dissonance on the GBA was a pretty good entry too, though with a couple minor issues. Circle of the Moon inadvertently highlighted how hard it was to see the original GBA screen (too dark, and it caught reflections like crazy), so Konami overcorrected with Harmony and focused too much on the graphics. Unfortunately they put so much processing into the visuals that there wasn't much room left for music samples so it's all chiptunes. That's not necessarily bad but it did feel like a step backwards.
The gameplay was fun, at least. It's been a while but I recall a neat system combining the various classic sub weapons with different magic elements.
It's worth playing the whole GBA trilogy, but do it in order. After Aria you likely won't want to go back to the others.

That was a rumor, and has never been verified despite decades of discussion and many attempts to prove or disprove it. Also, it was filmed in Japan, not China.

Behind the dress, yes. No one's disputing that. The difference between that bright light and the dress itself makes it look like it's in shadow, at least to some of us.
See, it always looked to me like blue light (or maybe shadow) around the dress itself, where the only sense it makes to my brain is that the fabric is white.
And then finding out years later that lamp pic really was what you thought:

Edit: Or not? It's lies all the way down...
E.T.
Yes really. I played it all the time as a kid and didn't think it was any more difficult or abstract than the rest of the 2600's catalogue. Granted, we kept the manual, which made a huge difference in understanding and enjoying its bizarre logic, but still. I had no idea it was so hated until at least a decade later.
"How he looked like"? Really BBC? Not "how he looked" or "what he looked like"?
