NERV Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 lol prime with prostate cancer, died and transforme dinto a coffin, anyone know what prime figure they used for the stop motion, it looked like a really nice one, same as their bumblebee Quote
Opus Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 I just saw it. Prime was funny but the Cylons were even funnier. I think that prime might have been the robotmasters Convoy. Quote
Shmitty Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 The first one looked like the smallest transformers prime. Then, of course the big shiny one was the MP prime (convoy, had the big stacks plus no crappy battle damage). Also, the show was pretty hilarious. Quote
Die, Alien Scum! Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Hilarious! That Seth Green is crazy, man! Hell, I'm gonna watch it again at 2:30 AM! Quote
Skippy438 Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 I was on the floor when the Cylon got hit with the wrecking ball. Classic. Quote
NERV Posted February 28, 2005 Author Posted February 28, 2005 haha, doesnt get much betetr than voltron breakdancing Quote
Skippy438 Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 The lyrics to the robeast rap made that sketch Quote
bigkid24 Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Yeah, it's pretty good stuff. I wish I had thought about it first though. What a great excuse for someone to customize me a bunch of toys. That and buying old toys off of ebay like the Castle of Lions for backgrounds. Quote
ComicKaze Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 There's no Cartoon Network in Canada No Robot Chicken! I downloaded episode 1, is there a second one out now with Voltron in it? I didn't see Voltron the first one. Quote
promethuem5 Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 The smaller Prime was the Robot Masters Convoy and the lareger one was MPC Prime. I was laughing so hard when Grimplock towle whipped Bumblebee and when Prime died.... awesome stuff. That and 'You're using the WHOLE fist!?' Then I went backa nd watched it agian to check out the custom done toys... impressive stuff. Quote
JsARCLIGHT Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I found myself watching it... not really enjoying it, but watching it. It's sort of like that other stop-motion show that was on years ago with the used toys that I can't quite remember the name of (it was around in the late '90s, never really had any decent airtime). At the same time I keep having flashbacks to old Toyfare "Big Shot" comcis. While the idea, the material and the presentation are nowhere near new and the humor is sub-juvenile on many cases I can see this show becoming quite popular with the geekdom viewers out there. After all, what is better than a show featuring tons of old toys beating on each other and doing other kooky stunts? It's just too bad the thing reeks of idea ripoff. Seth Green is good at butt and fart humor and the guy does not have an original bone in his body so this project fits him to a T. We'll see how long he can keep up the pace. The first episode started out strong but faded and the second episode did not make me chuckle even once. Where it goes from here is a matter of material... I think people will get tired of the same humor after too long. One can only watch toys hit each other, make bathroom jokes and get dismembered so many times until it just stops being funny. Quote
DarkPhoenix Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 We'll see how long he can keep up the pace. The first episode started out strong but faded and the second episode did not make me chuckle even once. Aaaaw. Not even Harry Potter with a broom stuck up his ass made you chuckle? Quote
JsARCLIGHT Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Nope. I actually found the show to be very stale. Most of the "hunor" was rehash... all done before by someone else which was funny then. Robot Chicken is just rehash jokes told with stop motion toys. Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I forsee some Masterpiece Veritechs making an apperance in a future episode. Lord knows they won't fork over the dough for a Yamato. Quote
Roy's Blues Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I thought it was funny. you canDL a G4crapTV preview and episode 1 on ISOhunt.com /the whole fist Rachet? Quote
Effect Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) This show is pretty funny. Volton and the Robeast was great. Not just seeing the different toys but what they actually say. Prime saying "only 50 humans were killed in today's battle, a new record" with the other Transformers cheering. lol Great stuff. Reminds me of when MadTV used to have claymation parts of their show that included GI Joes, Gumby, Santa Claus, etc. Good fun. Edited February 28, 2005 by Effect Quote
Anubis Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I forsee some Masterpiece Veritechs making an apperance in a future episode. Lord knows they won't fork over the dough for a Yamato. I don't know, they sported a Takara MP Prime instead of the Hasbro. Quote
Max Jenius Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Pretty funny. Seth Green is living my dream. Making stop-motion animation from 80's and 90's toys. Sure, the humor is "derivative" but you can say that about pretty much everything this century. Quote
ManxoChu Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 This was great! Last week I was able to download it. Dunno if I could still find it. I'll take a look though. Torch: It burns when I pee. Prime: What did I just tell you?!?! Quote
ComicKaze Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 What's with the celebrities on this show? So far I noticed Macaulay Culkin, Rachael Leigh Cook, Kurtwood Smith... apparetely the entire "That 70s Show" cast will appear soon, then Mark Hamil, Burt Reynolds, Ming-Na, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Erika Christensen, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, Pat Morita, Scarlett Johansson, etc... Quote
1st Border Red Devil Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 Just a tad bit of thread necromancy.. In the last few days Ive actually gotten to see some of Robot Chicken. This has to be, without a doubt, one of the funniest, most twisted shows out there. The Cuddles Fabric Bear being raped had to be one of the most disturbing, and hilarious, things I'd seen in a LONG time. 'Cuddles brand fabric softener. When your clothes have to be huggably, rapeably fresh!' I'm definitely going and getting the first season on DVD next week. Quote
j_wong00 Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 Yeah, it's pretty good stuff. I wish I had thought about it first though. What a great excuse for someone to customize me a bunch of toys. That and buying old toys off of ebay like the Castle of Lions for backgrounds. It's on Teletoon at 10 amost every night. Quote
