Huh. Maybe I need to dig deeper, but I'm astounded I haven't yet seen Bela's Halloween-meets-Mardi-Gras robot from "The Phantom Creeps."Or any of the water-heater 'bots of Way Back Then, including the top-hatted ones from Gene Autry's "The Phantom Empire." (I understand now why Lucas went with a certain title.) THOSE

Quite a few of these are incorrectly listed. For example, there is no alien queen in "Alien 3" (except for the embryonic one); that must be from "Aliens."

"It's finally happening! The Superman and Batman movie universes are about to collide, albeit it in a very, very tiny way. As Batman and Robin argue over the Batmobile, Batman (George Clooney) will look at the camera and say, 'This is why Superman works alone.'"

Ranks right down there with "The War On Easter" on The List of Shit Hysterical Pseduoconservative Culture Warriors Focus On Rather Than Real Problems.

Corrections: The group was called the Shadow Fighters ("Charge of the Light Brigade" was just the story title, IIRC) and casualties included the Mark Shaw Manhunter (who was later bullshat back to life so someone else could screw with him some more).

The amount of "badassery" that a character gets when DC pops them is often directly proportional to their popularity; this should be no surprise. But yeah, women very often get treated exactly the way you'd expect, regardless. Examine one of DC's early big bloodbaths: the Charge of the Light Brigade.

Thanks, but I've already seen Wild Wild West and have no desire to watch it again.

I have never equated food with sex, so the only Carl's Jr ads I ever liked were:

Enjoy Hamilton Wesley Wigglebottom here. When his uncoordinated li'l eyes chance upon the ball, he goes clumsy/nuts on it until some big ol' looming but well-meaning human distracts him by entering his, eh, tunnel of vision. Then the ball comes into view again and the fight is back on!

He is happy and well cared-for and you have no idea why the aquarium has adopted him—but I'd wager it's not because they wanted more work to do. Learn to control your caps key and your emotions.

This. The stop-motion was done by Dave Allen. There's one pants-crapping scene that you don't realize is using rear-projection until YAAAAA!!, but some of Q's victims unfortunately suffer the Elongated-Man-Swimming-In-The-Air effect that you might remember Ronny Cox doing at the end of Robocop.

Was Anatole SUPPOSED to be an all-out nightmare? ("Why would I have teeth, were it not to rend the flesh of humans?")

(1) Obtain list of purchasers; (2) unleash the Ironic Rape Squad; (3) claim it was all the fault of a programming error.

Yeah, if Francisewood wants to toss Short Circuit and Mac and Me and Like Mike into a Blender (note cap) and milk the suckers with the mess that comes out, I don't care. But why do they have to smear this crap all over Iron Man?

I always assumed that was the "bonus" purpose of those codpieces.
