I may not be a big fan but there is just something unique and fun about stuff from the 1980's-2000's. Two of my novels, TCOTRB (The Case of The Red Bubble) and "AMANDI," were inspired by a lot of the movies and shows I used to watch as a kid.

There are so many of them that it's gonna take us forever if we're gonna have to mention every single one of them. So, let's start off with three of my personal faves: "Cabin In The Woods", "Detective Conan" and "Martin Mystery."

Cabin In The Woods (2011)

I remember seeing this on TV during the weekends when I was about in middle school. It definitely creeped me out and almost kept me up at night because, seriously, imagine finding out there is a secret underground facility that controls these dangerous creatures beneath the cabin you and your friends are sleeping in.

There are various references to ol' horror films and video games such as The Twins from The Shining, zombies from Left 4 Dead, and the Deadites from The Evil Dead. What makes this movie stand out to me is its unique take on common tropes.

For example, you have a freakin' cult pulling the strings on a group of five unsuspecting teenagers, each must fill these archetypes (The Whore, Athlete, Scholar, Fool, and Virgin) and be killed as a sacrifice to The Ancient Ones (who are basically giant creatures that used to roam the earth thousands of years ago).

Detective Conan (1996 - ongoing)

Based on the manga by Gosho Aoyama, the series follows a seventeen-year-old student detective Shinichi Kudo who suddenly gets knocked out by a couple of members of The Black Organization and forcibly given a strange drug that turns him into a little kid.

Now, he goes by the name Conan Edogawa (which is a combination of Arthur Conan Doyle and Edogawa Rampo) and must keep his identity a secret as he helps crack the world's greatest crime mysteries. I used to like how Conan owns these nifty gadgets such as the voice-changing bowtie, stun-gun wristwatch and super-enhanced shoes that enables him to kick objects at a mile away all made by the elderly Professor Agasa.

I used to resent Kogoro Mori as a kid as he was always mean toward Conan. This guy is supposed to be the detective yet sucks at his job. I swear a kid had to put him to sleep and voice as him to explain his findings, then he ended up taking all the credit.

Martin Mystery (2003-2006)

For some odd reason, I was banned from watching this show when my mom saw how creepy and disturbing it was. Let me tell you how obsessed I was with this show. I remember back in elementary school, a couple of friends (who happened to be boys) and I would constantly talk about it.

Now, to those who don't know, the show is centered around sixteen-year-old Martin Mystery, his stepsister Diana Lombardi, and a caveman named Java as they are tasked to solve all kinds of weird mysteries around the world.

They work for a secret organization known as "The Center," which covertly protects the people of Earth from supernatural threats and investigates the unknown and the paranormal. Their boss is known as M.O.M.

Here's a fun fact: The anime was based on the 1980's Italian comic of the same name by Alfredo Castelli and artist Giancarlo Alessandrini. Unlike the series, the comics are much gritty and mature.

I also loved the iconic title cards such as the one above. You have others like "Curse of the Deep," "Beast From Within," "Attack of the Sandman" and "Terror from the Sky." People would say how lame my book titles are but even those basic corny-a** titles didn't stop Martin Mystery, CITW, and other movies from gaining a sizeable fandom.

Frankenstein illustrato

Nel 1970 il giovane (allora) sceneggiatore Alfredo Castelli progettò per Gino Sansoni, editore della rivista “Horror”, un volume dal titolo “Frankenstein illustrato”, nell’intento di celebrare, pur se con un po’ di ritardo, i 150 anni del romanzo di Mary Shelley. La proposta fu accettata, ma, per varie ragioni, i lavori si interruppero. Rimase soltanto il poco materiale già prodotto: una…

[…] Martin Mystère mi emozionò meno di Dylan Dog (che scoprii quella stessa estate), ma le sue avventure, fantastiche e insieme fondate su elementi storico-scientifici, promettevano un passatempo in grado di esplorare informazioni poco battute da altri media: meglio di tanti libri scolastici, programmi tv, giornali.

Grazie Alfredo

mi si conceda un ricordo. Oggi piango la morte di Alfredo Castelli. A lui devo ore di letture amene, non solo con Martin Mystère. Ma proprio al detective dell’impossibile devo una passione per la curiosità e lo “strano”. Anche i fumetti, se ben fatti, sono letteratura, e possono aprire le strade alla voglia di imparare. Il mio mondo oggi è un poco più triste. Grazie Alfredo, buon…

Imagine this back in time.

Martin Mystery (French: Martin Mystère) is an animated television series based on the Italian comic book Martin Mystère by Alfredo Castelli. The show was produced by Marathon Media Group (French television production company based in Paris), and Image Entertainment Corporation (a American production and animation company based in Los Angeles). It uses an art style similar to Japanese anime.

Oh, I love Martin Mystery! It was such a great animated series. The combination of mystery, adventure, and humor made it really enjoyable to watch. The show follows the adventures of Martin Mystery, his step-sister Diana Lombard, and their caveman friend Java as they investigate supernatural and extraterrestrial phenomena. The animation style was unique and the storytelling was always engaging. Did you have a favorite episode or character from the series?

One of them "it came from the bog"

If Martin Myster was an French-Italian-American show by Marathon Media, they would have US voice actors.

It's possible that if Martin Mystery is a French-Italian-American show produced by Marathon Media, they may have chosen to use US voice actors for the English language version of the show. This is a common practice in the animation industry, where different versions of a show are produced for different regions and languages. Using voice actors from the target audience's country can help make the show more relatable and appealing to viewers.
