Two Worlds, One Incredible Game: A Look At Chrono Cross 20 Years Later
Two Worlds, One Incredible Game: A Look At Chrono Cross 20 Years Later
November 9, 2019
By Ryan Porzl
In 1995, the world was introduced to the game Chrono Trigger, one of the greatest masterpieces in video game history. Telling the story of friends from different time periods traveling back and forth through time in the hopes of saving the world from an intergalactic parasite, it was one of the greatest games ever made and it begged for a sequel. Then four years later, Square released the indirect sequel Chrono Cross. Taking place 20 years after the events of Trigger, Chrono Cross saw dozens of characters travel between two nearly identical worlds and must stop the same parasite who is now stronger than ever. With the 20th Anniversary of Chrono Cross coming in November, what better way to celebrate then look back at one of the greatest sequels ever made. As is the case with these articles, don't read if you don't want to be spoiled as there are spoilers.

KISS On The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder {Uncut/HQ}
Always meant to put this up but Halloween marked the 40th Anniversary of KISS' infamous interview on Tomorrow or The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder. Tomorrow was sort of a predecessor to the current Late Night franchise as it aired after The Tonight Show from 1973-1982. Anyway, the interview became one of the most famous in the history of the show due to Ace Frehley being drunk out of his mind and making a fool of himself. It's even funnier when you look at Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley who look like they want to strangle him. Snyder seems to enjoy it.

Final film appearance of Desmond Llewelyn as Q in the James Bond series
The World Is Not Enough marked the end of one of the biggest era's in James Bond history as it was the final time actor Desmond Llewelyn played gadget master Q after 17 films and 36 years as he went all the way back to the second Bond 1963's From Russia With Love which meant he worked with the first five Bonds in Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, and Pierce Brosnan.
In probably one of the eeriest stories out there, Llewelyn gave an interview in November 1999 claiming he wasn't retiring and would continue to work on the James Bond franchise "For as long as the producers want me and the almighty doesn't". Then a month later, he was killed in a car accident on December 19, 1999 at the age of 85.
The World Is Not Enough Opening Title Sequence
Happy 20th Anniversary to the James Bond movie The World Is Not Enough, Pierce Brosnan's third Bond.
