The Jam-Packed Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo 2015 Show!

November 23, 2015 by Stephen Jang Leave a Comment

First off, we at Retrenders love providing solid content and quality video content on our YouTube channel, but we had a slight delay and like to apologize for the dark video quality. We were shooting on our Sony V1U and left the ND Filter on and that’s a “not bad” on our part. Lesson learned and that will never happen again.

Okay, got that off my chest! Here’s the jam packed episode from Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo 2015 from the LA Convention Center on Halloween weekend. Our Ramen crew explores the growing and ever expanding Comikaze Expo. The Eddie and Ramon takes around the convention floor. So sit back and grab some chocolate gummy bears and enjoy the episode.

Women’s Fashion: “Tis now the season for a Cape”

October 31, 2012 by Johnny Moreno Leave a Comment

You can consider this to be a bit of a belated fall fashion awareness, but really, “Tis now the season for a Cape!” As a guy, I wear a wool coat, but I noticed women wearing some of the most fashionable capes and it’s not because it’s Halloween, it’s because winter is now kicking up, and the cold candle lit holidays are just around the corner.

Halloween Horror: Silent Hill – Revelation 3D

October 5, 2012 by Stephen Jang Leave a Comment

Based on Konami’s survival-horror video game franchise, Silent Hill: Revelation 3D is the sequel to the 2006 original film. This flick will be based on the Silent Hill 3 video game and it looks pretty scary. On a side note, I still can’t play the original Silent Hill game with the lights off.
