Dan Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Porky Pig as a lead character was a fucking nightmare of mediocrity. He didn't get to be any good until he was Daffy's sidekick. His Friar Tuck was hilarious, and Eager Young Space Cadet was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Well, Porky is the straight man. It's hard to make a funny cartoon with a character like him going solo. But I absolutely agree--when he got paired with Daffy, he was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delete Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Haven't gotten around to this one yet so I gotta ask. Subtitled Gojira or Perry Mason narrated Godzilla? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Gojira, though we do discuss the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjoyadet Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTItRfN-LO8 That was actually my first exposure to Godzilla, which was tied with Fantastic four for my favorite show. When the Emmerich movie came out I thought they made a dramatic improvement on the roar. Little did I know that was the actual roar and having Lurch slobber over the microphone was the change. As for Godzuki, everyone denies his existence. My dad watched an episode or two and whenever he sees Minya he calls it Godzillita (Spanish for little godzilla). Godzuki is able to collectively disgust people in a way that not even French Godzilla (aka Mr. Merde) cannot. http://youtu.be/ejkk8I9S878 or even Mr. Merde goes to Paris. http://youtu.be/twcbKbLQUuA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjoyadet Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 I believe in the original script of "Gojira" Dr. Serizawa (Dr. Nick Fury) originally was meant to wear all black, only appear at night and live in abandoned houses. I am glad that they decided to tone him down to just an eyepatch. We have enough vampires in movies already. Although I do find that having the Godzilla world be fantastical, makes you care about the damage less. Because you can make an argument claiming that everyone abandoned the city instantly and that with the push of a button the buildings will come back together. Mr. Plinkett once made the Citizen Kane Tommy Wisseau connection. Way to explain the origin of the clapping meme! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 A note on the trailer at the end: While Life on Mars only lasted two seasons, it's spin-off/continuation, Ashes to Ashes, did last an additional three seasons. On the subject of any coverage of The Middleman, my response will be sheer elegance in it's simplicity: FUCK YES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
