My wish for what song to be used in GTA 6+SALUTE TO PHIL COLLINS

We're all anticipating the release of GRAND THEFT AUTO VI releasing for the PS5 and XBOX SERIES X coming in NOVEMBER 19 2026.

And to be honest, A lot of us have become somewhat impatient with ROCKSTAR.

That's because the game was susposed to release in late 2025 but then the foul taste left behind by the Fall 2022 leaks caused moral to deplete with the programmers which lead to the game being delayed until MAY 2026.....

And then came the late October 2025 news that the game would be delayed to November 19 2026 with the excuse being to further polish the game so it doesn't end up an unfinished disaster like CYBERPUNK was.....

I get that ROCKSTAR wanted this to look perfect but GAMERS are not only impatient but they don't like excuses like using CYBERPUNK to justify delays just to avoid a buggy release and believe me, CYBERPUNK was not the only game to suffer that at launch.

FALLOUT 76 & the original release of SKYRIM are testaments to all that.

Anyway. Shared Venting over. 

What's the topic?

Well.........

WE'RE ALL IMPATIENT FOR TRAILER 3.

So for a while, I've been searching on GOOGLE,

both on CHROME & SAFARI on my iPhone 17 Pro MAX, 

what would be a good contender for a song to accompany TRAILER 3....

Then I figured, THIS SHOULD FEATURE ANOTHER SONG FROM PHIL COLLINS

Why PHIL COLLINS?

Well, this ENGLISH DRUMMER/SINGER who's more well known in the USA for his contribution to MTV and DISNEY has always been a fan of the GTA games.

It got to a point that he even got his own character in VICE CITY STORIES released for the PSP and PS2 back in 2006

The last game we had that featured a PHIL COLLINS song was GTA 5 and that featured COLLINS' 1982 hit "I DON'T CARE ANYMORE."

Anyway....

I've put multiple GOOGLE SEARCHES of my suggestion that the song that should be used in TRAILER 3 for GTA 6 should be "TWO HEARTS."

If you want to hear what that song is susposed to be like

(either you never heard it before or you've heard it before but promptly forgot)

Here's the YOUTUBE LINK to the song:

Why should TWO HEARTS be the song that's used in GTA 6's THIRD TRAILER?

Well......

It may have to do with the fact that this song was already attached to a movie back in the 80s and that was the 1988 film BUSTER

This film is based on the 1963 GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY.

If you want to read more on the film, here's the Wikipedia page to the film:

Buster (film)

So...... why TWO HEARTS in GTA 6?

It's obvious.

While there are more heists in this game than a simple Train Robbery,

The sheer fact that JASON & LUCIA are likely to be inseparable throughout the game is what makes TWO HEARTS more fitting.

DOUBLY SO if the song becomes the leitmotif for the DUO when together in the ADs.

Another reason why I think they should use TWO HEARTS in GTA 6 is likely due to the news of recent health problems for our favorite Singer.

He looks much Healthier in this photo, and probably is recovered by now.....

But earlier in the year, he had health scares.

So ROCKSTAR licensing his music should be enough to pay his Medical Bills and ensure a complete 100% recovery alongside his newer music he's making.

And one final reason for wanting TWO HEARTS as the song for TRAILER 3 is due to this:

This is the EMBLEM for the long defunct CARONLINA CIRCLE MALL in GREENSBORO, North Carolina...

(Yes, I live in Vancouver.)

I follow this YOUTUBER called BILLY COORE who runs the YouTube channel 

THE NOSTALGIA MALL

So what does PHIL COLLINS have to do with him anyway?

Well... If you've seen his older videos or read his blog CAROLINA CIRCLE CITY, you'll know that he often heard this song while visiting MONTGOMERY WARD at the Mall and the song was also the catalyst for him pursuing NOSTALGIA after hearing the song on a Radio while attending PENDLE HILL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL back in 2005.

So, While COORE isn't likely a GTA Fan unlike his friend CLINT BASINGER of LGR, having TWO HEARTS being used in GTA 6 would be a VERY NICE DOUBLE WHAMMY for BILLY COORE not because of the song being used in game but rather due to the song being the total Catalyst for his entire YouTube Career.

I know for sure ROCKSTAR might not see this BLOGPOST and they might use a different song for TRAILER 3 but still, it would be nice to hear TWO HEARTS in the game as a featured song through the in-game Radio.....

If that doesn't happen as well.... well....

There's always the inevitable PC Port in 2027 and the PC Ports will always have the option of giving us the ability to attach our own songs to the game.

Well.... We'll just wait and see what happens.

For me, I'm excited. 

But first, I need to buy a new Controller.

Both of my DUALSENSE controllers have suffered Stick Drift so I need to buy the DUALSENSE EDGE controller before I buy GTA 6 when it finally releases this November.

Clash of Heroic characters with a Closeted Dark Side-The Dark Quail vs. Hollow Ichigo

Not all super heroes can be portrayed as perfectly good.

Even if they're susposed to be the savior of Mankind, they can have a closeted dark side to their personality

which in turn makes them the perfect target for JOURNALISM FODDER.

First, we have THE DARK QUAIL,

QUAILMAN's dark side after being extracted

by QUAILMAN's archnemesis DR. RUBBERSUIT.

He strives to be a better and badder hero than QUAILMAN would ever be.

And that includes physical violence,

Something that QUAILMAN will not stand for.

"As Phil Funnie would say:

SHOW ME A MAN WHO CAN FIGHT YOUR BATTLES, 

THEN SHOW ME A MAN WHO'S RUN OUT OF GOOD IDEAS."

He then reappears later in a 1999 episode where he separates himself from his host once again due to an alleged jealousy against PATTI MAYONNAISE's superheroine persona SUPERSPORT.

Ok OK.

DOUG AVERMEDIA CAPTURES OVER ONCE AGAIN!!!

Now let's get to the Anime Side of things.......

We have HOLLOW ICHIGO from BLEACH.

This is the hidden Dark Side of ICHIGO who at times until the ARRANCAR ARC back in the late 2000s would often disrupt ICHIGO's fights whenever he's a state of defeat whenever his BANKAI is used.

The first time that happened during a fight was when ICHIGO fights with BYAKUYA during the near tail-end of the SOUL SOCIETY ARC.

Despite the fact that HOLLOW ICHIGO is ICHIGO's manifestation of his own dark side, 

he's not even a villain to begin with.

In fact, he's actually on the side of heroism.

But rather than spoil the beans on BLEACH, 

I encourage you to read the manga & watch the anime on DISNEY+ or CRUNCHYROLL.

Yeah Yeah... That explains why I have DISNEY's label on this particular clash post.

Because it's not only referring to DOUG being with DISNEY since 1996,

(Though I still used Nickelodeon's label because Nick Elitists)

But it's because BLEACH,

Both the entire original anime & THOUSAND YEAR BLOOD WAR,

are on DISNEY+ via HULU.

Which at first confused me since BLEACH's NORTH AMERICAN distribution has always been VIZ MEDIA.

But even on the DISNEY+ prints, VIZ MEDIA's logo is still left intact.

(Though it's the 2019 VIZ logo that's used.)

And this logo does sound great on my LG Soundbar+Subwoofer.

HEY YOU DOUG & BLEACH FANS!

HOW ABOUT A FUN FANART CONTEST!

Draw on paper or Photoshop(or GIMP or KRITA) some hand-drawn FANART of the DOUG Characters dressed as BLEACH Characters that I can post on this blog.

If DOUG had a CHIBI

When the news broke out back in late OCTOBER 2025 that due to legal snafu relating to DOUG's Nickelodeon Origins as well as the very messy history surrounding VIACOM's infamous budget freeze of 1994, etc.,

That DOUG would not have a CAMEO or Appearance on CHIBIVERSE for the time being until the legal issues were taken care of, 

I was both devastated and confused.....

The one thing that confused me was WHY does DOUG's NICK origins have to matter when he's already been DISNEY property since 1996?

My guess was because of issues relating to BEN SIEMON preferring DOUG's earlier NICK SERIES wardrobe where he had shorter sleeves, a more detailed sweater vest, and red shoes instead of the longer sleeves, less detailed collar on his vest, and grey shoes.... and SKYDANCE owns the visual copyright to that earlier outfit,

Or maybe because BEN really wants BILLY WEST to return as the Voice and not THOMAS LYONS.....

(I guess Ben prefers PHILIP J. FRY instead of FRANCIS MCREARY.)

Who knows what's holding up the legal snarl....

And no, DAVID ELLISON, The SKYDANCE Merger, or the impending acquisition of WARNER BROS. have nothing to do with all of this.

Until all those SNARLS have been taken care of,  I'm just gonna share this Drawing I did of DOUG FUNNIE as a CHIBI Character.... or at least, my attempt at giving him his own CHIBI...

Yes Yes....

I drew him in his NICK OUTFIT because NICK SERIES ELITISTS & BEN SIEMON....

More like I figured once the legal issues have been sorted out, the CHIBIVERSE production crew will fight with the MOUSE HOUSE to fiercely use DOUG's Nick outfit while designing the puppet rig in TOONBOOM.

Yes! CHIBIVERSE uses PUPPET RIGS but that's ok because the CHIBIS are so simplistic that they can get away with that Stiffness....

Unless it's made in JAPAN where they prohibit PUPPET RIGS in favor of drawing by HAND frame-by-frame on their WACOM CINTIQS.

And yes, unlike my Sticky note doodles, this was drawn on a full 8x11 Letter Sheet which I scanned into my Computer using my CANON PIXMA TS3720 Printer's Built-In Scanner because I can.

Technology is amazing but so are traditional tools.

Mickey's one Cartoon that didn't get it's Copyright renewed-THE MAD DOCTOR

There's this one Mickey Mouse Cartoon that for all it's years even before the eventual inevitability that STEAMBOAT would be put in the Public Domain in 2024, it has for many years never had it's Copyright renewed.

That Cartoon is THE MAD DOCTOR.

A 1933 Mickey Mouse Cartoon with Horror Related Macabre

It was DISNEY's 52nd MICKEY CARTOON and the second to be made in the year 1933.

It all starts with a scary windy night

Mickey is sound asleep. 

It's a good thing DISNEY is based on the WEST COAST so no HURRICANES.

But then.....

Mickey hears the sound of PLUTO howling. 

And that is enough to wake up our rodent.

Who could have done this atrocity to our favorite cartoon Bloodhound?

And why is this figure taking Pluto to this scary looking castle?

Hmmmm.... Does this castle look strangely familiar to you? After all, it was 1933.

Anyway, Mickey follows the figure.

All while braving that strong wind storm

Not even collapsing bridges can stop this rodent

Though some door alert systems of the past just don't have manners

And then it segues into various scenes of exploration for Mickey here

Especially this wonderfully animated perspective shot that looks almost CG...

But this was the early 1930s and nobody had access to computers unless you were a scientist or mathematician and even then, those early computers were all VACUUM TUBE based.

OLLIE JOHNSTON must have had both the wrist dexterity and the patience to pull this off unlike us animators of today who either have to rely on CG software like MAYA or Blender

Or by tracing perspective shots from photographs that we source from like our Camera phones.

Anyway, where did Mickey fall down to?

Just a fireplace with scary looking Gargoyles to deter people away from touching open flames.

"Did somebody call for Gargoyles?"

Oh put a sock in it HUGO. 

You're not susposed to be in this blogpost... at least not until June 2026 when I celebrate your movie's 30th Anniversary....

Anyway, where was I before HUGO the Gargoyle interrupted me with his anachronisms?

Oh yes. The fireplace.

What's so funny Mickey? HUGO's Anachronisms?

Oh that's it!

"AHHHHHHH!"

Serves you right for laughing it up.

Now pay attention to what's going on.

Is it pitch black? You're gonna need a light.

What a smart lad. Carrying a match. Did GRIM NATWICK lend you his match box?

Look out behind you!

OHHHHH! You got careless. 

While Mickey gains his bearings, 

Let's see what where PLUTO is as I've rigged a MITCHELL CAMERA to a laboratory.

OH MY GOSH!!! IT'S THE MAD DOCTOR!

IN THE FLESH!!!!

Poor Chicken... He knows that it's gonna hit the fan big time.

"And now!"

PLUTO is confused at why he needs to see his X-RAY and his beating HEART.

And then the DOCTOR explains what his plan is with PLUTO and THE CHICKEN.

"I'm a raring tearing wizard..."

"When it comes....."

"to....."

"Cutting."

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

"I can graft a Chicken's gizzard...."

"on the wishbone of a DOG."

Pluto realizes what the DAMN DOCTOR is about to do.

"And here's the end result that I'm just about to tackle..."

"To find out if the net result will

BARK, CROW, OR CACKLE!"

Ok... So what the DOCTOR's planning looks more benign than evil as he's clearly ahead of this time, especially for 1930s medical science.

But PLUTO does not see eye to eye with this experiment.

As a matter of fact, he dreads it.

Anyway, where were we?

Oh yes Mickey has to save Pluto.

What was he doing FIGHTING A SKELETON like that while I was typing away?

Run all you want Mickey but there are more tricks up this DOCTOR's Sleeves.

"OH NOW YOU"VE DONE IT!!!

YOU WON'T LIKE SKELETONS WHEN YOU INTERUPT THEIR DANCE REHEARSAL!!!"

Heh Heh.

I had to make a joke about THE SKELETON DANCE(1929)

"I ain't PRESIDENT HOOVER but...

ALWAYS GIVE A SKELTON A HANDSHAKE!!!!"

"OWW!!!!

DAT HOITS ME DER!!!!!"

Well..... Mickey has found himself in a rather interesting situation here.

And just when the DOCTOR is about to do his job....

Yes. Even Gruesome Cut Ups required cleaning the specimen.

UH OH!

Call for PLUTO all you want MICKEY.... but you're toast

????

Why's he back home?

"AHHHHHHH!!!!"

It's all been a dream?

Yes. Disney has been pulling this old trick 

long before DALLAS controversially pulled it off in 1986

"PLUTO! PLUTO! PLUTO!"

Ok.

1933 was a weird year, if you could ignore the DEPRESSION PERIOD of that time.

But at least this Cartoon provided Prosperity around the Corner much better than HERBERT HOOVER tried to do

Even though THE MAD DOCTOR had it's share of controversy over it's subject matter, what with how infantile the younger generation gets when it comes to Western Cartoons,

Uhhh.....Pay no attention to MUFASA's Cadaver and continue reading.....

THE MAD DOCTOR has had it's place as one of the most memorable MICKEY MOUSE cartoons to have graced the planet.

People have said this Cartoon is a scary one but I don't see it as scary.

I see it as more of a Comedic Horror Comedy than legitimate scary even compared to the scariest of movies both of it's time and in the future.

THE MAD DOCTOR has had his share of being in video games but the most famous of them all has to be when the 2010 Wii game

featured THE MAD DOCTOR as an antagonistic character. 

And the MICKEY MOUSE cartoon from which he came from was also featured as an unlockable bonus for players of said game.

If you have this game for the Wii? Go watch it.

And yes, it's preserved on the 2024 REBRUSHED remake too.

(I have this game both the Original on the Wii & Rebrushed for PC)

And..... I have a funny but regretful confession to make:

I accidentally dropped and broke a MAD DOCTOR porcelain figure

at the former WONDERBUCKS store at Commercial Drive. in Vancouver during my childhood...

Luckily, the store managers never got pissed at me for doing so but to this day, I'm still wracked with guilt over this incident.

The only person who got pissed at me was my mother because even when I was still at my early Elementary school years, she still did not appreciate my reckless actions that time.

Oh well, it's all in the past.

Oh and as for why THE MAD DOCTOR has been in the Public Domain after all this time?

Well, in an unusual case for DISNEY, a company who went out of their way to be HYPER PROTECTIVE of their I.Ps even if it means extending their copyrights,

DISNEY for some reason in 1962 did not renew the Copyright for THE MAD DOCTOR.

I did some reading and as it turns out, the reason might be tied to the fact that this cartoon was often banned in most European Theaters for it's Subject matter so as a result, DISNEY felt no need to renew the Short's Copyright after all those years.

However, it took a while before the Cartoon fully entered the Public Domain as a whole due to MICKEY still being under Copyright until 2024

and now Pluto has entered the Public Domain since January 1 2026.

I said you can watch this cartoon on the two versions of EPIC MICKEY but I guess I should be the nicest guy in NORTH AMERICA and forward you this link to the Cartoon:
