Around SBN: Gary Carter, Mets All-Time Great Catcher, Has Died

IT'S FREAKIN' HERE. CARL BE PRAISED.

The Aqua Teen Movie is here. We're too consumed by the idea to really consider anything else, since ATHF is the dominant, generation defining work of our time, a slice of the zeitgeist: chickens on fire, molestation jokes, occult references, random surrealist violence, Chechen prostitutes, cameo appearances by Geddy Lee and Bruce Campbell...it's a like a semantic geek Olympics playing out before your eyes.

The creators have been jerking around the public by publishing false endings with dialogue like "After high school, I never returned to Blood Mountain...but I carry it with me. In my heart. In heart." We're counting the minutes 'til we can leave work, purchase tickets, and enjoy our 83 minutes of brain Drano exposure.

Addendum: Joey's got the thorough link guide for n00bs here.

What’s wrong with everyone? I smoke more grass than Willy Nelson, and I still don’t think this stuff is remotely entertaining.

The idiots that be the movie-critics-on-the-radio were surprised at how “a cartoon” be R-rated. Of course they didn’t know what Adult Swim was when one of the interns mentioned it and one of them proudly declared he doesn’t own a TV as he prefers to watch the big screen.

A definite “don’t watch” from them because no cartoon can be good if its R-rated.

IDIOTS!

I’m with Greg: is there an age cutoff for “getting” ATHF? Me being 35 and all….

Bruce Campbell, however, is the most under-appreciated actor of all time. “Army of Darkness”, “Briscoe County Jr.”, etc….all classics

i spent my morning watching all of season 1.
i’ll most likely spend my afternoon watching a good deal of seasons 3 and 4.

what’s the matter, sandman? You don’t find meatballs transmogrifying into igloos funny?

i like how the “blood mountain” fake ending reminded me of both Stand By Me and “A Separate Peace”

I hate John Knowles.
me too

I must not be doing enough drugs, because I don’t see anything remotely entertaining about that show.

If a freaking Pulitzer Prize winner says it’s funny, that’s good enough for me.

For me, it took 2 or 3 episodes before I “got it.”

I’ve seen a lot of “I’ve done X amount of drugs, and I don’t find it funny comments.” Then fine, let me enjoy the awesome that is ATHF.

Stephen Hunter writes like I only dream of writing: " ‘Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters’ is a work of either a profoundly transgressive genius or a goofball high on Pez and patio sealant."

It is the Broodwich. Forged in darkness from wheat harvested in hell’s half acre, baked by Beelzebub, slathered with mayonnaise beaten from the evil eggs of dark chicken forces into sauce by the hands of a one-eyed mad man, cheese boiled from the rancid teat of a fanged cow, layered with 666 separate meats from an animal which has maggots for blood.

But no bacon…there are no swine evil enough.

the sad fact of the matter is, living in central florida i have encountered many, many men who must have provided some inspiration for the character of Carl Brutananadilewski…
and for those of you who just haven’t “got it” yet, i recommend viewing some of the episodes with the Mooninites in it from the first couple of seasons, as that’s the best way i’ve found to break in new fans…

by rjsplow on Apr 13, 2007 11:43 AM EDT reply actions  

Fuck and yes. And I haven’t done alot of drugs (obviously alcohol excluded) but ATHF kicks ass like Loverboy. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go find out who keyed ‘The moon rules #1’ on my car- wid a key.

I’ve watched it about 5 times, and I never laughed once. Not even a ‘heh’.

Stop pissing on our parade. It’s ATHF day.

Don’t worry Orson, everybody on here who doesn’t get ATHF is going to get a visit from the Clowns, right after they finish making shivs out of bedposts.

agreed, italiangator.
i’m giving (the bird) as hard as i can right now.

I’ve only seen a couple of episodes and it’s pretty good stuff. The Mooninites burning tire bong hut was classic.

I think Metalocalypse is better, though. I mean who wouldn’t rather cut off their dork than go without booze?

by tOSU_radar on Apr 13, 2007 3:11 PM EDT reply actions  

Well, IJ, I agree that Harvey is teh rox, so enjoy it while you can. The rumorwebs tell me that they’re trying to finish up the last episode. Vol3 in stores this July.

But a bad episode of ATHF beats Japanimation any day of the week. If you’ve ever had roommates, you’ve had a bit of the Shake magic.

SPACECATAZ!!

Holy shit I’m goign to be so stoned when I get home from work I probably won’t be abel to get to the movie theatre (a whole 10 blocks away.

by Wooderson on Apr 13, 2007 4:31 PM EDT reply actions  

Thousands of years ago at 1pm this afternoon I went to see this movie. The intro to the intro was as potent and blindingly deadly as Jimmy Sexton’s agenting abilities. Urban Meyer’s texting skills were the only thing that could parallel the intro. Sometimes the plot was as transparent and easy to predict as Florida on 3rd and 1 with Leak on the sidelines. Overall, this movie would be receved by the quivering masses of humanity like Les Miles’ hat. Some would fear it. Others would mock it. Either way, the stoners that accompanied me would laugh and laugh profusely as they tossed toys made of bones and feces at little children.

For those who “haven’t done enough drugs” I suggest you try Moonjuana, and a Moon Bong.
 
(Really though, its hilarious sober).

by Socraticsilence on Apr 13, 2007 5:48 PM EDT reply actions  

Unequivocally, for those who haven’t seen it or can’t get into ATHF, you must see “Dumber Dolls”. Most classic episode ever. David Cross as Happy Time Harry, an alcoholic suicidal doll, is sheer genius.

I declare ATHF Colon to be Awesome. That intro rules your world and you must now bow down to the ultimate source of fuck-your-ass-up in the universe.

@ 7
Two pairs of father and son walked out of the theater within the first 15 min. I mean, was the R rating not enough of a clue that this was no ordinary cartoon?
