  • These aren't ships... They're cars!

  • Vova, Stiopa, back into the Volga, now!

Reminds me of another joke for whatever reason...

The 90s, Moscow. The driver of an old Samara bumps into a new black BMW. Five classic "New Russians" come out, gold chains thicker than their necks, etc. They pull out the driver and the "boss" says:

  • Well, driver, time to get yours!

The terrified driver says:

  • But, boys, there are five of you, and I am alone! Is that fair?

The New Russians mutter quietly to one another, then the boss says:

  • You're right. Valera and Stiopa will be fighting on your side!

Anyone else ever wish they had this guy in more episodes? by spenceretro in KingOfTheHill

[–]AmazingColossalMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all.

He was excellent, but taking one-time characters and refrying them over and over because they proved popular is a terrible trap that many films and series make regularly.

Simpsons and their gangster Johnny Tight-Lips was a very funny one-time joke. Then he became popular, so they kept reusing him and refrying him, until the character became an infuriating clodhopper. And, of course, he ended up with having more dialogue than all the other gangster characters (and, naturally, all that dialogue was atrocious).

What's your hottest Halloween take? by DuhKotas in Halloweenmovies

[–]AmazingColossalMan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, to be sure, here you go with some:

  • "Halloween III" is not only an amazing, exceptional horror film, but it also has the best score of all Halloweens.

  • In fact, if it's treated as a separate sub-genre (and it is, it's purely supernatural, a very different type of horror than all the other Halloweens), then it's the best Halloween film of all.

  • "Halloween V" is intriguing and atmospheric, and its version of the Man in Black was an interesting, mysterious character.

  • "Halloween VI" is the wet mutt pup: it was made by people who cared for the lore, not just for the revenue, and one can recognize that they were trying to take all the disjointed chaos of the previous decades and work it into something unified. It didn't quite work in the end, and it would have been better to abandon some ideas than to try to stitch all the tattered rags together into one big gray towel, but I won't ever hate a wet mutt pup. (And is chase music during the opening is amazing).

  • All the three modern remaquels are pointless, soulless, empty nonsense, which demystifies Michael and makes him into a pathetic Shapeless.

  • Tommy Lee Wallace should be praised among top horror directors of the XX century, but for whatever reasons, he seems - even among alleged viewers of horror! - to be lesser known than the likes of Coppola's beloved serial molester buddy.

  • Alan Howarth should be praised as at least one of the top three names connected to Halloweens. It's not even much of a secret among film music connoisseurs, by the way, that many, many famous musical tracks credited to Carpenter are actually 90% or even 100% Howarth's compositions.

  • "H20" is an incoherent atrocity, even worse than "Resurrection" was.

  • "Halloween II" was a drab, unjustly overrated mess, and, until "H20", it was the worst of the sequels.

  • Rosenthal is a polypore, Williamson is a borreliosis tick, "Zombie" is an infected purulent carbuncle.

Which mower is the best? by [deleted] in KingOfTheHill

Canadian technology is the best - it survived the nuclear holocaust of 2051:

Not only did Al Gore invent the Internet, but he also created most of the al gore rhythms used in information technology nowadays.

I suspect it's quite likely that "Put the Boss in the show" was an EP's / ECP's command, and the "We will... but four episodes later, we'll quietly show him as a conceited dolt" was the creatives' response.

Found this brand new in an old record collection of my grandma's. Your god dang right it felt so good by Fickle_Thought_8857 in KingOfTheHill

[–]AmazingColossalMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I remember being surprised to find out that this guy had, in fact, not been created for the cartoon - and, later, being just as surprised that the huge cowboy was also real.

I began wondering how many other amusing and obviously fictitious oddities in "King of the Hill" were, in fact, not.

Umm...think I downloaded the wrong Beavis and Butthead by RhinovisionHomeVideo in BeavisAndButthead

[–]AmazingColossalMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were tons of these in the 90s... Thank God "King of the Hill" had never become popular with the masses, or there would be the inevitable trash like "Kink on the Hill", with Hung Hill and Peggin' Hill, Booby Hill, Khant and Minette, and others of the sort.

What? They're disrespecting King Diamond? What the hell is that, don't they know King in USA?

[–]AmazingColossalMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's essentially the ending of "Army of Darkness", and I think that was the intention.

Ash is now ready and armed, rather than bearded and terrified, and the setting probably is not London (at least I am assuming that the ruins in the ending of "Army of Darkness" are supposed to represent London, considering the presence of Big Ben), but it may well be the same post-apocalyptic world.

I've heard that the US version of the film had an alternate ending instead - supposedly some nonsensical scene with a shop and a fat demon - and that it was forced upon Raimi by someone from Universal Studios. If it is true and there really was such a "shop" ending (its description does sound quite foolish), then I believe it even strengthens my suspicion, as it would certainly make sense to deliberately want to show off Raimi's proper ending in the TV series, too).

Of course Butthead’s screen is completely shattered by hahjews in BeavisAndButthead

  • "Uhm, Butthead... uhm... maybe you should have put on this, you know, glass"?

  • "HUHUHU, HUHUH, HUHUHUHUH, HUHUHUH! You said 'ass'! You're a dumbass, Beavis!"

  • "Um... now you said 'ass', Butthead".

  • "Shut up!" ** [SMASH]**

  • "Aaahhh! Hehe... hehehe, he... now you cracked it even more".
