Cartoon Chronicles: Super Madness #2

Like my new Beast theme? I made it in preparation of X-Men Legends, which will be released this week. I'll give my review of it, after I play it later this week. Everybody loves a good parody. With D.Moon currently under reconstruction, my parodies are sadly offline. However, I recommend The Editing Room for the movie-viewing public. It sums up popular films, cutting out the middle-man known as "the theatre." It's not made by me, so that only makes it 10 times funnier than anything you're used to finding in my weblog. Don't believe me? Here's a snippet of their summary of Matrix Revolutions. KEANU REEVES             Hi everyone. I know now what I need             to do. I must travel to the machine             city.                      LAURENCE FISHBURNE             What? Why?                         KEANU REEVES             Because you guys are fucked. I'm             switching to the winning team,             bitches. And with that said, let's get to those darn Cartoon Chronicles... Birdman and the Galaxy Trio It was two separate series' squeezed into the same half-hour. Some of you probably watch Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law. Well, before he was habeas corpus, he was a horribly generic superhero. He didn't even have a first name. He did, however, have superpowers. He has a pair of wings on his back, which allow him to fly. His body absorbs solar energy, which he used to project energy shields, energy beams, and essentially to remain concious. He had a highly intelligent bird named Avenger, and a sidekick named Birdboy who never did diddly squat sh*t. Speaking of generic, meet the Galaxy Trio! They're three aliens who (of course) patrol the galaxy, fighting for interstellar justice and galactic law. One was Vapor Man, a man with blue skin who could transform his body into mist. As you can guess, this power almost never came in useful. The next member was Gravity Girl, an almost manish redheaded woman who could alter gravity to make objects around her float. The final member was Meteor Man, who could (get this) increase the size of his body parts. He didn't become giant as a whole-- he only grew a few bodyparts at a time. Usually, he'd increase the size of his hands before punching something. This is where I'd make a sexually suggestive comment involving Meteor Man's powers and something phallic, but I'll leave that to your imagination. Talk amongst yourselves. So would I recommend Birdman and the Galaxy Trio? Only for novelty's sake. Honestly, you might want to watch it simply for the sake of knowing what Birdman's cartoon was like before he passed the bar. Next time: Dyno-Mutt, The Dog Wonder. That's right. The show's named after the sidekick. Much Love
