Tendo City

Such an awesome idea (and by "awesome" I mean "probably awful but hilarious")... no way it'll ever come out here, though.

That is awesome. FALCON PUNCH!

I gotta say... don't these guys know about a little something called "telegraphing"? Blinking twice has NOTHING on those sorts of crazy super heroes. These days though at least the shouting of attack names is limited to when the hero is a spell caster shouting magic words.

In unrelated news.

So really, when's the GI Joe movie coming out? Just imagine it done in the style of a serious modern "take" on those old serielized toy commercials, with some sort of Saving Private Ryan moments interspersed, and then in slow motion as some guy is firing a machine gun directly at the camera you see him shout all drawn out and deep "YYYYoooooo JOoooooooEEee!". Yeah, that would be awesome, and by awesome, I mean this hollywood formula has been cracked so wide open people are using it to make homebrew.

Please, oh please tell me that that is a fake Chipmunks poster.

No, it's very real.

Well it's dumb but *sees Underdog the live action movie preview* Okay that's it. *ca-click* I think murder is acceptable in this instance.

Oh, Jason Lee... how far you've fallen. :(

I can believe how much they've thugged out those chipmunks. This is the kind of thing you'd expect to see on the Critic. The fact that it's real is a little scary.

To lighten the mood:

That is frightening, but I must ask, wasn't the mood already light?

No, the thread has been going south ever since that Chipmunks movie was introduced.

Pay closer attention.

Hey we were all joking around and having fun already mang.

That Chipmunks movie was a few years ago, though, right? But yes, I get the point. :)

As for both of those comics, they were both funny, though I'd seen the second one before for sure...

Oh, and as for "all '80s properties", not even close. I mean... there were many more! GI Joe was mentioned, but how about He-Man? That was a pretty major one... there were many smaller ones, but He-Man was there on a TMNT or Ninja Turtles level for a while.

Ah He-Man. You knew he was a super hero because of the male prefix. Seriously that was one weird super hero name. Then again there was also She-Ra...

The Chipmunks movies is NOW.

awesome. I bet they rap in really high voices.

Thank you hollywood for repackaging my childhood and raping me violently with it.

I've heard that the Transformers movie is maybe okay...

I saw it a few days ago, and it is better than okay. I wasn't into Transformers much besides the toys, but it was a really well done action movie. The special effects were incredible, and it had a fun, campy sense of humor that didn't get overly corny.

Yeah, I'd like to see it. The Transformers look quite different from how they originally did, more "serious" or something, but I have heard that it does a decent job with the license, so... (and I did like the Transformers toys quite a bit; I'd heard of the TV show and comics, but never really read/saw those... though I have seen a few episodes of the TV show and the movie.)

Anyway, on the original subject... Exclamation Warriors gameplay video!
