Video Throwback - Robot Chicken: Villain Carpool


Reading Carpool Buddies of Doom the other day really made me laugh... laugh out loud. So I decided to share that over on my Facebook page, and the reaction was great. But in the comments one of my good buddies Edson posted a similar concept that was executed by Robot Chicken way back in 2005. It was called 'Villain Carpool', and featured claymation versions of Cobra Commander, Skeletor, Lex Luthor and Mumm-Ra on a hellish ride to work. They deal with the monotony of everyday life in the only way they know how... by being EVVVVVVIIIIILLLLLL! This is so great.... especially Lex Luthor. He kills. Maybe not the direct inspiration for 'Carpool of Doom' but, a very similarly great idea. I forgot how great of a show Robot Chicken really was. Might have to go back and dig into the crates to see what else they got stashed away....

'Saber 2 - Return of the Bodywash'


Fanboys exist on all levels. They can be living in their moms basement or multi-million dollar making celebrities. The only difference would be that the multi-millionaires have the means to put their fanboy loves into action. Take my man Seth Green for example. Dr. Evil's son has parlayed his riches into a super successful animation show (Robot Chicken) that tackels all the geek topics that he loves. He also is becoming more involved in directing, so he decided to use his new found talents behind the camera to bring us a live action Star Wars short/fake advertisement for Saber, the Star Wars Universe's answer to Axe bodywash. This one is a geek dream with Chewy, lightsabers, and a special guest appearance but a Star Wars fave. It is also a chance for Seth to show off his sexy ass wife Clare Grant. Its good to be a geek with loot!!! Click after the jump for the full video...
