This is a story about my great friend Mike. Mike is a VR trooper... or was anyway. For those of you not in the know, VR Troopers was a spin off from the Power Rangers. I met Mike my freshman year going to college, and we became fast friends. Then he casually told me he was a VR trooper. My reaction: "Wait.. What?!?" Myself along with countless others thought it was the coolest thing ever. Mike would always just roll his eyes and shake his head.

Anyway, fast forward to Senior Year. It's just a few weeks from Graduation, and Mike says he's got a video from his VR trooper days. We all sit down, and then I see something truly breathtaking, something hilariously awesome. My first words were, "Dude, you have to put this on You Tube."

The video was from the last day on the set of the show after they were canceled. Apparently, the whole crew got drunk and dubbed over the show. So, to answer your question, yes, these are the actual voices of all the actors. At the end, there's also some outtakes that are equally hilarious.

After months of pestering from his friends, he finally uploaded the video.

Just a warning, there's quite a bit of vulgarity:

They're probably going to build upon what was established in the last one. It's probably not going to be a direct continuation but they've kept the continuity that's been establihed for the MOTU Classics.

They have Keldor becoming Skeletor, Hordak being sent to the alternate dimension, Evil-Lyn being a mind slave and corrupted by Skeletor, and The Faceless One being her dad. The whole thing with Adora being kidnapped was going to be added for the 200X series to establish She-Ra but it was never animated since they cut the series off at the Snakemen. Really at this point anything MOTU related comes from the toy bios unfortunetly, so a new show would be more than welcome.

Yes, but also the toys were all just a bazillion versions of Max Steel, he was essentialy a barbie for boys. However everything fell flat, there was literaly nothing redeeming about the toyline or show. They tried the extreme sports/secret agent angle but nothing exciting or engaging ever happend.

I remember one toy being just a Max Steel in a pair of swim trunks, that was it. No other acessories or anything just him in a pair of swim trunks. But the figure had the apparent power of STEEL FLEX(aka articulation).

So did anyone else actually watch the first three episodes of the new Voltron series? I thought it was actually pretty decent. I wasn't really too aware of it before it came out other than knowing it existed. But finding out it was actually a sequel to the old series and not a reboot was pretty cool. It does have a really lovely theme song though (Swizz Beatz I think you're pretty great but how could you do that to Voltron?). But the storyline was actually pretty cool and the animation was decent too. The redesigned lions aren't that bad either and the use of 3D for them isn't as jarring as it in some other cartoons.

It struck me to be similar to the Masters of The Universe 200X series. It definetly has a similar feel to it. I think the animation is abit rough still, the CGI segments esepcialy where they switch back and forth from 2d to 3d they didn't really match the textures with their 2d counterparts. Still though considering that the only other one that ever did that in a tv show/movie were the recent Evangelion movies(which really did match the 2d and 3d perfectly) it's sort of forgivable when a technique really isn't that widespread.

The new voltron sort of reminds me of the Stealth Voltron that came out in the terrible CGI series done by Mainframe. It might not be as sleek but the proportions of the lions are the same as is the transformation. It's certianly not as blocky as the original, but it works.

They're spoofing an add for an R-rated movie in a billboard that went up, there's also apparently a few more for GiJoe and Transformers as well. Now the only thing I would like for them to do is to start chopping up the old Transformer and GiJoe episodes and make something akin to Space Ghost Coat to Coast, Sealab, or Harvey Birdman.

Unrelated, but I suddenly remembered the episode -- I'm pretty sure it was Freakazoid -- where the whole plot was put on hold for five minutes while Freakazoid, Wakko Warner, and somebody from Tiny Toons (I think it was Buster Bunny, could've been Plucky Duck) went to Spielberg's office to settle which one was his favorite.

Spielberg: "...Who ARE you people?"

Also, if we're going to risk a segue into the Spielberg/Tom Ruggerio cartoons, let's not forget that Tiny Toons could be just as amazing as the other two:

Actually, Spielberg wanted it wacky, Bruce Timm wanted to play it straight. Later on, Timm basically made his more serious Freakazoid with an episode of Batman featuring the Creeper. And it was great. I wish he had gotten some more show time in JLU.
