Clash of the consoles (http://www.greenpeace.org/international/clashoftheconsoles)
Hope the URL works.
Anyway, I was browsing the internet when I came along this site. It's an environmental site yes but it has one of the cheapest and funny as hell animated movie I've seen in awhile. Basically our three console heros Mario, Master Chief, and Kratos represent each console and must save the world from their console pollution. The voice actors are terrible, Kratos is the worst in my opinion and is a little educational but I hope you find it interesting.
-
It's also full of misleading if not false propaganda.
-
Oh, yes, this stupid thing... kinda immature for an environmental organization, wouldn't you say?
-
Wow, this has to be the dumbest thing I've ever seen. The voice acting sucked hardcore.
-
Must...poop...crappy...video!
-
Okay, I understand Mario & Chief as mascots for their respective consoles...
... But Kratos? Seriously? He's only had two games. Wouldn't Ratchet be better?
Anyway, the animation look like it came from the early 90's, not to mention the over-exaggerated landscape. I mean, Master Chief saved the world, it's colonies and humanity as a whole from killer religous aliens, and this is the thanks he gets? Immortalizied in super-bad anim8ter animation?
At least Super Chick Sisters tried to look good...
-
I especially like how Kratos talks without moving his mouth and runs like a schoolgirl and sounds like a constipated guy trying to do a Duke Nukem impression and his blades look like cardboard and Master Chief sounds like an astronaut and Mario has a giant watermelon nose and the whole this is full of ten-year-old humor.
The moral? I'll stop throwing out all the Wiis and 360s and PS3s I own and go buy the Grassystem and some Captain Planet game.
God, this makes me hate Greenpeace even more. Spreading lies for a good cause has got to be the stupidest thing ever.
-
What kind of crazy person would throw away a game console anyway?
-
And I thought I hated Greenpeace before I saw that. Wow.
-

A Freakin' god of war.

And Master Chief only has three games. Meanwhile, Kratos has two more upcoming games announced while Master Chief has none (except a bit part in Halo Wars perhaps).
-
60,000,000 people throwing out their game consoles. Oh, sure.
-
...Throwing away game consoles? What the heck?
...New consoles, at that?
-
Who the dukar throws out a video game console, period? Each of them is a like a child and must be treated with the same love and respect.
-
^ SmashMyXbox (or whatever those things are where those dorks totally destroy techie stuff)
-
That bugs me even more, on account of their complete lack of any logic whatsoever. Who the heck spends good money just to smash a piece of equipment?
-
^ Jacka**es that take advantage of the post-yourself-doing-anything-stupid-on-YouTube-and-get-famous age, that's who.
-
No, they're doing it for science.
-
Hammer + Perfectly Good Video Game System = Science!
Apparently.
-
Actually they're just doing it to get attention.
-
I thought the video was a little funny (Mario farting out a mushroom). I laughed when the narrator said that there were 60,000,000 consoles producing toxins.
-
I just thought of something:
That movie would be funnier and somewhat more realistic, if they replaced the mountain of consoles with a mountain of E.T. cartridges.
-
Stupid! I think this show will be a failure, and did you hear what Mario sounded like? Terrible I tell ya. You know, this is why I don't watch flash movies. Because they're stupid.
-
It will not be a show, that was definitely not Flash, and Flash animations are definitely not stupid. (in short)
-
this is why I don't watch flash movies. Because they're stupid.
You must have never seen Homestar Runner (http://www.homestarrunner.com).
-
Terrible rebuttal.
-
I don't think its stupid. But I guess what's stupid to one person may be the opposite to another. Oh well.
-
Homestar Runner is actually for the most part funny while most flash cartoons are not.
-
I'm not gonna write a list, but there are MANY jewels out there. Though it can be hard to find them.
P.S. It's "animations" not "cartoons". I think cartoons are only for TV.
-
You're wrong.
-
Cartoons, by definition, are supposed to be humorous, and technically aren't always animated. Hence, "political cartoons".
-
You're wrong.
I'm not continuing this. Your being childish.
-
But you are wrong.
-
I'm not continuing this.
-
But you are wrong.
-
Why do you always have to have the last word?
I don't care if you hate Flash animations. It's your freekin loss.
-
What? You are wrong in saying that they are not called cartoons. This has already been discussed.
-
Uhh... Okay, I'm just gonna drop it.
Again...
-
There's nothing for you to drop. Your statement was incorrect by definition.
