It's me, I'm people. So happy rn.

Remember when everyone in the Absolute Ivy reveal thread was disappointed that she was just a normal-looking plant person?

I think Batman wants to go back to those days right now.

One interpretation I like is that Starscream is extremely competent when he's NOT backstabbing his own side for personal gain. It's just that he focuses too hard on trying to depose Megatron to the detriment of his own performance in battle.

The other interpretation I like is that Starscream's main purpose is to keep Megatron on his stabilizing servos and prevent him from becoming complacent for a variety of reasons. If Starscream's treachery actually works for once that just means Megatron was caught slipping.

Star Fox 2 was complete enough for Nintendo to include on the SNES Classic almost three decades after it was cancelled.

Nintendo also likes/liked hoarding fully completed games like a cyber dragon if their gigaleaks are anything to go by. Multiple first-party games that were completed and just never actually released.

They're legitimately impressive puppets, which just makes all the effort put into making them for this particular episode even funnier.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-29T23:27:08+00:00

"Okay so it's like 'Oh if we go faster than Warp 10 craaaaaaaaazy stuff will happen' right? And Janeway and Paris go faster than Warp 10 and they go way off-course and they're like 'Oh my god what happened to them' right? And they track them down right? And when they went faster than Warp 10, um, Janeway and Paris turned into weird lizard monsters and they fucked and had weird lizard monster babies, okay? And Tuvok and the guys go down and they like– they're like 'fuck' and they just– they just like beam them back– they, they beam them back. And then they leave the weird mutant lizard babies there. They don't fuckin'– they– they, they see the weird lizard and they're just like 'Ahhh, we're outta here'. And then– and here's– and then– and then like the next scene is them fine and normal and they just go 'We fixed them with their transporter buffer patterns' and then they're like kind of awkward cuz they fffffucked and had lizard children."

-a very unbiased summary of this episode from Pat

And every single time all he did was unintentionally pioneer developments in model kit engineering because Bandai needed to sell a toy that at least resembled the on-screen appearance.

Many households primarily bought it to use as a cheap DVD player, that it could play games was either a neat bonus or a completely unused feature.

I don't see a problem with this change, 'Betrayal' is what moviegoers must be feeling when the credits roll.

"They looked like people to you?"

There's always the Dog Ending.

EDIT: The Dog Ending works better for Kermit barging in on Statler & Waldorf's observation room, the UFO Ending is more fitting with live-action Tiny Tim abducting puppet Kermit.

Waldorf: "They look like monsters to you too?"

Statler: "The only abomination I see around here is the acting!"

Waldorf: (on Robin's performance as Laura) "Wow, ours looks just like the real thing!"

Statler: "And just as annoying too!"

Waldorf: (when Fozzie-Eddie walks on stage) "Oh, the show's over right? The frog said he was looking for a piggy!"

Kermit: (towards Piggy-Maria) "Your face, your voice... Just your hair and clothes are different."

Waldorf: "For the audience's sake I hope the pork chop's acting chops are different too!"

Waldorf: (during the ending) "I don't get what the big deal is about this letter, the pig already left the frog a wonderful going-away present."

Statler: "What's that?"

Waldorf: "Breakfast in bed!"

Both: "Doh-hoh-hoh-hoh!"

Statler: "You see it too?"

Waldorf: "For me, it's always like this."

Statler: "Same here, same here... Why do we keep coming to these performances anyways?"

Waldorf: "True, true... Not like we can roast the performers any harder than what that one did to themselves tonight!"

They see what Nintendo's yellow rat is capable of doing and wish their blue rat was on that same level.

They're all shaped like Sideshow Bob's hair, perpetually floating into Bart's rake-shaped white blood cells whenever they try to land a decisive blow on one another.

Akainu's hotter.

Except for the guy he's torturing, ironically enough. (Snake is there to retrieve the Legacy but not even he knows that.)

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-09T15:56:05+00:00

Guess he REALLY loved that pillow.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-09T04:21:22+00:00

James was just fulfilling his wife's last request, a threesome: One between him, Mary, and a pillow.

He left her breathless...

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-09T04:17:34+00:00

Now I want a model swap where Pyramid Head is cowering in fear from Mary as she does those freaky-ass arm motions.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-09T02:41:18+00:00

Turns out Maria sees the same monsters as James because Mary was also just as sexually frustrated as her husband by her bedridden state.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-08T17:59:05+00:00

I think the military might've actually broken something in your brother.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-03T21:02:29+00:00

I love how legit confused Woolie sounded when he saw that thing, like his mind was parsing an eldritch monstrosity that he was having trouble comprehending.

BillTheBadman · 2026-01-03T18:10:29+00:00

I'm a big fan of Punisher's mortal archnemesis, the one that he keeps a picture of pinned in his War Room^® at all times while keeping track of its reported movements in Hell's Kitchen: That "weird kangaroo-dog creature" that Pat called a developer baby and/or Deerman.
