Forbidden Planet
Roll up for the freak show! This place plays refuge to those still clinging to their childhood. Sure, there are some genuine old-skool numbers that'll have you momentarily lose your cool (Spiderman comics, Miyazaki's Spirited Away, Queen figurines, etc), but delve deeper and it starts to get a little creepy (coffee table book of back-breaking breasts or cartoon porn, anyone?). Not a bad place to kill time when awaiting a tardy mate, but stay too long and you'll likely find yourself playing with the Yoda backpacks.
