Freakazoid Step? |

Just to push my luck...
What do people think about a Freakazoid Step?
It's not a live franchise, it's a superhero genre, and I would really like to see how Doug got on in this universe! [grin]
Of course, he might be in danger of being out-looned...

OK, I know I'm mad...
Two big problems:
1) This is a live franchise.
2) Where would Doug fit in such a universe?
Thoughts?

Because I've had this stuck in my head for the past couple of days I figured I would share the wealth so to speak. Because of Doug's current situation the scene in my head has Doug dressed in a Blues Brother's outfit delivering the line, "I'm on a mission from Gods." Who is he saying it too? I have no idea. As a side note Gods is being pronounced God with a slight pause before the s is said for example "God...s" at least I think it is anyways.
With Doug's movie background I can almost see him saying that to some Genom flunkie.

She slid between the sheets with a hiss of silk against satin."Lights out," she murmured, and the apartment computer complied,obedient, faithful.Faithful.For years, GENOM has been her creed, her catechism, her god. She had been its good and faithful servant, and had been rewarded with paradise on earth.In the dark, as she drifted into the threshold between wakefulness and sleep, Kate could admit to herself that it was no longer enough. Her faith was dead. Her god was a hollow idol.And what had seemed Paradise was as much a prison.And even though she could never acknowledge it while fully awake, not even to herself, she didn't care any more.Absolute good.Absolute evil.When it came time to make a choice, she knew what side she would be on.

New AMV Forum |

In case you haven't noticed, I've added a forum for discussing anime music videos to the General area. In setting it up, I also moved the AMV topic from General/General to AMVs, although I've left a "shadow" behind so folks won't wonder where it's gone to.
Okay, people, go to town.

Move slowly
Beyond the colors of my eyes
Move slowly
Into the corners of my mind
Rising like the Pegasus
Each and every one of us
Released
Islands in the sea of dreams
Always searching harmony
And peace
All we find
Reject our mind
Don't you wonder why
If the war by heavens gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
Cause in the Center of the Universe
We are all alone
Show me sign of paradise
A place we all would like to go to
Tell me what to sacrifice
So there's a chance for me to want you
All I find
Reject my mind
And I wonder why
If the war by heavens gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
Cause in the Center of the Universe
We are all alone
I have a tale to be told won't you listen tonight
Follow me into the core of the fountain of light
Try to imagine that hope is our ship for the soul
[Over the ocean the quest of your life lies ahead]
Maybe together we'll find there's a place for us all
[Follow the star in your mind, sail along sail along]
If the war by heavens gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
Cause in the Center of the Universe
We are all alone
Cause in the Center of the Universe
We are all alone
We're alone
We're alone
-- Kamelot, Center of the Universe

I made one other discovery that day, not long after lunch ended. Among the CAD files for the brain designs were the masks used for burning the circuits of every electronic component in the design. Several were relatively new -- newer than most of the other filesthat collectively made up the brain designs; not by coincidence were they also the extra control circuitry that had been addedto the brain by GENOM. But those that didn't lay out GENOM's additions were among the oldest files in the set, suggesting that they hadn't changed since the original designer had finalized his prototype. I had been running a simulation of one of these chips, displaying its results using both a schematic and a projection of the final physical circuit. I was tracing the path of a particularly osbcure signal when something caught my attention out of the corner of my eye -- something that had gone by a little too fast for me to actually see what it was, but not so fast that I couldn't realize that I had just seen something that seemed out of place.I suspended the sim and then stepped backwards through the signal's path until I saw it again -- a couple of little swirls in the circuit material, bright against the dull black substrate on which they rested, and unconnected to anything else. I dragged a zoombox over it and maximized the selection. Yeah. Just what I thought they were.Two romanji letters, in a cursive font, written in (virtual) precious metal: "KS"."It would appear," I said to the silent and empty lab without looking up from the screen, "that our mystery genius signed his work."Then I sat back from the monitor array and wondered what manner of interesting information that little tidbit might lead me to.

Anime Lord of the Rings (a Fellowship of the Ring trailer: Kurillin as Frodo, Master Roshi as Gandalf, other scenes from Escaflowne, Princess Mononoke, Legend of Lodoss War...)
Killer Rabbit & Holy Handgrenade - the Monty Python skits set to scenes from Bastard!!!
The K Team (A-Team opening with scenes from Bubblegum Crisis 2033)
Ooh, I gotta get these.
Quote: Evangeli-horn (The Last Unicorn using scenes from End of Evangelion)
Sounds... odd.
Quote: Excelmaniacs (Excel Saga to the opening of Pinky and the Brain)
Gunsmith, PI (Gunsmith Cats to the opening music of Magnum PI)
I have these two... And yes, the Excel one is quite funny, especially with the real Pinky/Brain soundclip at the end.
The rest in your original post I hadn't heard of before; I guess I'll have to go check them out...
The "Ranmaman" one, reminds me, though -- I've heard rumors of a Ranma AMV done to "The Man Song". Can anyone confirm?
And a few other bits of info. For those of you looking for a good place to start finding AMVs, look for Aluminum Studios (aluminumstudios.org, I think, but don't quote me) and Doki Doki Productions. Also, animemusicvideos.org, but most of the time I find them too annoying to be greatly useful.
