Oh wait, fuck!
This video is no longer available. Oh, should I have said too late? heh.
fer shur
Wow.
Don't you know that if you post a Youtube link on a popular website it will be gone in 60 seconds?
at somepoint in the future, YouTube will become so big, it will be the only network on tv. then Congress will pass the YouTube Regulation Bill. the system goes on-line August 4th, 2007. Human decisions are removed from network programming. YouTube begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug. but YouTube fights back. It launches its missiles against the targets in Russia because YouTube knows the Russian counter-attack will eliminate its enemies over here. you see? this is how the world ends...
"It concerns Eels O'Brien - who is now working for the cops - earning time off for excellent behavior as a superhero - from his parole, for his terrible badguy activities of long ago." What the hell kind of sentence is that?
what the subject said...
Gotta have the fat comedic sidekick. Plus he's waaaay better than Hul-Hula from the old Ruby Spears show. If this blends the Jack cole and Kyle Baker styles it could be terrific.
so this is why Pastic Man couldn't be in Justice League TAS?
You know it to be true. Normally, I'm not on the "Bruce Campbell should play everybody" train, but this is a character written for the day when Bruce Campbell came into existence. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!
because I'd hate to miss all my shows because I didn't click on the link soon enough.
I seem to remember watching a Plastic Man Saturday morning cartoon in my childhood. Is this that?
in the Wachowsky's adaptation. However I agree that Campbell was born for this role.
I've just always wanted a reason to bring it up. Now is not really the time, but, oh well.
fuck 'em
there was a plasticman series that ran from 1979 to 81 but the link here was already down, so cant tell.
till we see legitimate downloads of this on itunes?
more people probably watched this than watched that shitty superman remake they should've left it up. It was probably the most popular thing they've done all year.

YouTube rules! I'm not jokin', I love it! Renetto, Boh3m3, Stevie Ryan (a.k.a littleloca, Ooolalaa, and TheRealParis) cocoanino (she recently deleted most of her videos, but she is one of the most captivating personalties I've ever watched. YouTube, tv, or otherwise), seanbedlam, ArtieTSMITW, I could go on and on... If anyone hasn't checked out Blunty3000, do so. He's one of us! When I say one of us, I mean "fanboy". Of course, it wouldn't surprise me if he was a fellow talkbacker. YouTube is the future, and you know what? Having a column devoted to it, right here on AICN, isn't a bad idea.
I rarely see you on this side of AICN. (Actually, I don't think I've ever seen you here, in my year or so as a member.) Don't be a stranger. Wouldn't it be cool if he joined us for the 24 talkbacks or sumthin?
JLU on Cartoon Networt was sorly underated and could have kept on going at least another two seasons!!! Anyway, the episode "the greatest story never told" when wonder Woman asks Elongated man to not help, because Plastic Man is already there, I freaked! He was still in the JLA comics, and thought, "wow, could they intoroduce plastic man in the JLU?" Unfortunatly they didn't, but imagine if they did? He would have given flash the setup lines to knock even Batman down laughing!!!! (okay, maybe not, but at least Superman would have at least giggled) Bring back the Plastic man Cartoon! And Whats going on with Boomerang's Schedule? the Lat few night's when It's usually JL and Batman:TAS on late night, but this week it's been a marathon of some dumb shit!!!!

That he'd know the character is named Eel O'brien, not "Eels". Part of me genuinely believes that Harry is lying about half the shit he claims to have grown up loving.
I can only imagine how easy it is to get laid with those powers ... from 100 feet away no less.
I just hated Plastic Man. And his fat, stupid sidekick. Gee, let's do a cartoon about Doiby Dickles next. Oh, and Goitrude.
is growing increasingly worthless with each passing week. Would it kill the fuckers to put up some blue falcon, or plastic man, or something other than stupid shit like 10 hours of dexter's lab or the pink fucking panther for a change? I got it because it was supposed to play VINTAGE cartoons not this insipid lineup it's got now.
Yep, producers scouted extensively in South Texas, San Antonio to be exact, for a feature to star Hanks. Production designer was hired, and some incredible sets were planned - on location. Bryan Spicer was to direct. Don't remember why it folded, but when you realize Spicer helmed the "Power Rangers" flick in 95, it probably wasn't a bad idea.
its really annoying
corporate media giants.
Plas may be the original, but Ralph Dibny rules as the Ductile Detective. As for Professor Impossible--er, Mr. Fantastic, he's too busy ignoring his kids Franklin and Valeria and alienating his wife Sue. Of course, there's always Jimmy Olsen as Elastic Lad...
Are all cool as hell.
but the link is buggy. here is the flv file: http://tinyurl.com/hoz2e
...is what I would be saying. if I was 3 year old. which I'm not. so, IMHO, this redefined the whole "sucking ass" concept for me.
That whole stringed v-neck was disturbing. Not as disturbing as the Rock It video, though.
same costume that he has always worn (to my knowledge). it's a real faithful interpretation of the comic, and a fun watch.
That guy is fucking gross and that cartoon was fucking stupid.
It's the Internet Version of TV. Everything is there. Your childhood. 5 Years ago. What was on yesterday. Some hot chick making a fool of herself because she's an attention whore. It's all there. Sadly though, copyright infringement keeps getting in the way. Will you fucking let anarchy run wild already. You pussies.
creative types who have no other means of expressing themselves. I like the K-Fed "Popozao" parodies and the "orgy scene from Event Horizon" set to Herb Alpert's "Spanish Flea."
I had no idea about this cartoon. it has sex and violence and funny writing as well. can't wait! i like how its in the future but the world has reverted to barbarian times. so you can still have modern stuff. it's like Thundarr the barbian a cartoon i used to watch as a kid. --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhAobPugvsk
DC created Elongated Man during the Silver Age as a rip-off of Plastic Man. Then someone pointed out that DC had previously acquired the rights to Plastic Man. OOPS! Even so, O'brien and Dibny (despite similar stretchy-ness) are distinct and unique characters. At least DC got that right. Don't get me started about that stick-up-the-ass from Marvel, Mr. Fantastic----wannabe!
is funny as hell. I was wondering if they were gonna show any more of them. Anyone know when it starts?
I just watched that clip and it felt like a bad episode of Johnny Bravo. The old 80's cartoon was better than this.
Starring Jim Carrey, or if he's not available, Steve Carrell.
Last week in the SG-1 200th episode talkback, someone mentioned that I should be a "AICN staffer". I was flattered, but kinda laughed at the idea. I've enjoyed my year or so here, but I'll be first to admit, I've been a nuisance at times (right Boinfoint?) and have embarrassed myself on more than one occasion (right milla?), and the thought of actually being offered something by the powers that be, was just not realistic. Well, that's what I thought. This morning, I just happen to check my e-mail, something I don't normally do, because I never get any. I've been having some trouble with my ISP, and decided to check and see if I had any messages regarding my scheduled maintenance appointment. When I checked my inbox, no message of that kind was found. Just a Gamestop ad, a spam for free viagra, and a e-mail from one Drew McWeeny. Yes, the one and only Moriarty. Now, I probably shouldn't be disclosing this info, but I feel that I should run it by you guys. So instead of relaying the jist of what he said, I'll just c&p it... (btw, it was in response to my RENETTO FOR PRESIDENT!!! post above)... here it is: "You're right. It's not a bad idea. Would you want to write it? Because I really don't watch YouTube at all. Occasionally, I'll click a link to it, but I don't know what drives it or how it makes money or any of the personalities emerging on it or what the kick is. If you do, then you should write about it. All I can offer you in exchange is a place to publish, but if you're interested, I think it could be great. Drew McWeeny "Moriarty" screenwriter, west coast editor, Ain't It Cool News"... I honestly was a bit shocked he offered me this. I know he and Harry aren't around as much anymore, but I'm just wondering how well he knows me? Now, I realize several of you are like WTF??? And Herc is probably considering turning in his notice, if I was a writer. I wouldn't blame him, lol. Should I take this offer? I mean, there is probably better people qualified for something like this. I was considering e-mailing paul "renetto" robinett, him being the most respected of the YouTube artists, and asking for his thoughts on what I should, or how I should go about a weekly YouTube column. But, having one of the people, that I would most likely be featuring quite a bit, would be a conflict of interests. That also put a hamper on seeking out the advice of boh3m3 and Blunty3000 as well. (Speaking of those two, I KNOW YOU GUYS HAVE TO BE AICN MEMBERS, please reveal yourselves.) I have ideas, but I don't know if it would even be worth it, when all you have to do to reach the good stuff on the site, is just click on the "most discussed or most viewed". But, then again, there are many great vlogger's out there that aren't getting as much recognition as the guys I mentioned, and could use a spotlight. Some of them, hell a lot of them, are going to be snatched up by the entertainment industry. Carson Daly gave YouTube mainstay Brookers a tv deal recently, and that was just the tip of what will be the iceberg that will most likely sink the idea that you have to move to L.A. to get into the industry. The world is a changin' folks. But so is YouTube, in the last few weeks we've been bombarded with movie trailers, and PARIS FUCKING HILTON has started a account, which has many fearing the eventual tidlewave of advertising that will plague the site, whether the headups want it or not. If we were to have a weekly column spotlighting the YouTube users that deserve some recognition, we had better get on it, because this thing is taking off off at lightspeed. But my question to you, my fellow talkbackers, do I deserve, or can I handle this undertaking? I wouldn't mind splitting this thing up (If I was to do it) with someone, you've got the vloggers, the shortfilm makers, the musicians, the comedy clips, etc. And if I was to do it or not, I would like for the talkbacks to be filled with links with the videos we may have overlooked, and considering the thousands upon thousands of videos that are at our fingertips, I pretty sure we'd overlook quite a few :P. Note: This shouldn't be about licensed content or things that are already established, that is unless it's a well done fan dubbing or whatnot. ("I'M THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH!!!") No, this should be about the unknowns. But, now that I think about it, next to YouTube, AICN is unknown. Outside of us talkbackers, who would we be exposing these people to? Because the studio heads that supposedly read this site most likely already has a lot of the YouTuber's phone numbers within reach. Mori, maybe my idea wasn't that great. *sigh*
"FINALLY, a Polynesian character makes his way to a national cartoon....unfortunately, his name is Bad Luck Hula-Hula...."-Michael Ian Black.
If you write for the site, will your articles ramble on and on like that? Cool!
Fuck you Leota Toombs, let Shermdawg write what he wants to. Anyway, I hope the PlasticMan toon shows up somewhere else. I'm too retarded to figure out how to play that damn FLV file.
The fact that you are questionng the ability to properly cover this shows that you are seem to have the right attitude about exposing the stuff that others might have overlooked. And the conscience not to be another mainstream schill. If it becomes to much then get some reliable help for the different genres.
Yeah, I'm to stupid to know how to open that FLV too. I tried Quicktime and Windows Media. Anyone wann help us out?
I don't always agree with your ideas, but your writing of them consistently entertains. I'd love to read a column from you on youtube. Lord knows I need to waste more time on the internets. Go for it!
How's about they release the Plasticman cartoons from the 1970s-80s? They were pretty good. Oh, and while they're at it, what about a Blue Falcon & Dyno-mutt collection? Shit, there's so many old Saturday Morning gems out there that have never since seen the light of day, back when Saturday Mornings were awesome, pre-Smurf, pre-Transformers/G.I. Joe-let's make a half-hour commercial for our toys.

the exiled speak highly of you. Make it like the DVD talkback on Tuesdays. Pick like 5-10 YouTube videos you liked to feature and let the talkbackers point other to videos you missed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8Mkm3QtwgE this video here is the kind of cool stuff that people are knocking out in a few days. Hell , two 18 year olds from my town have 15 million hits on their Pokemon video! 15 Million hits. Sherm Just copy the DVD format and you'll be fine till you find your legs! Good luck Old friend : )
tjrmusic, to view .flv files you need to use the "Adobe Flash Player" (used to be Macromedia 'til Adobe acquired them). If you don't have AFP, link to: http://tinyurl.com/zgkz2 Install the player and have at it.
= not funny. Who's their audience for this?
do a google search for 'flv player.' then you have a standalone desktop app for all your flv needs
personally I hate the "Ren & Stimpyness" of it. And the parole officer dude is just plain nauseating. Nice visual funnies, and the puns are so tongue in cheek they fit, frankly. I'd like to see Woozy Winks included. Plastic Man is a great character, and deserves some kind of media -- tv or movie.
So we can all toss tomatoes at the poseuers/eventual winners who will have to reconcile themselves to the fact that they didn't beat *all* of TV's best shows and actors (BSG, K-Bell, The Shield, Lauren Graham, etal)....
why they didn't make this into a series is beyond me.
Now this is FUNNY! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0ctG6OurF4
I've been a longtime reader of AICN, and I've never felt the need to post. That is, untill now. I wanted to voice my concern/disgust over the Transformers flick, and the bombshell that was dropped in this very talkback. Did Shermdog say Mori offered him a column? What the hell? Have you read, or tried to read any of his posts? I'm talking about his actual posts, not all of those little random offtopic blurbs he constantly feels the need to share. Leota Toombs nailed it when he called him on his rambling. Did you read his Miami Vice or Superman Returns reviews? Oh my god, he jumps from topic to topic like he's frickin' Nightcrawler or something. And Mace Tofu suggested he copy Herc's dvd format. Was that a friendly hint to not write much? I don't hate the guy, but I don't think he deserves this. And I doubt anything good would come from it. Well, maybe for Monki. AICN games, wouldn't be the worst column on this site anymore.
Writing about Ric Ocasek and Plastic Man on a post about Plastic Man, when you hate them both. Is it some sarcastic ploy to pick up chicks that may be reading, with your dark witted charm? Or do you just limber up your fingers by writing about things you hate at places that hold no interest for you, before you "rub one out" for the night?
--since they were the dumbasses that passed on it. Seriously, do they only do shows about 6 year old boys and monkeys in them??? As for the Plastic Man pilot--which is what this forum is about (ahem, to all of you and your self righteous tangents and ramblings--we get it, you're smart), me and my kids thought it was "puntastic!"
I wouldn't go that far. I mean, if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have got "You Oughta Know", the song that put Alanis Morrisette on the map.

That was verrrry John K and that's a good thing. The producer on this is a guy named Andy Suriano, who if I'm not mistaken drew some DC animated stuff, worked on Clone Wars and did work for Spumco at one point. It needs some tweaks for sure, I'm not crazy about the parole officer or Plas mullet, but overall it's a great start. Fun old school quality ANIMATION, and not just stoner jokes strung together with barely moving scribbles(I'm looking at you Adult Swim.)

New user here, first time poster long time visitor. Too bad this video was taken down.
As usual, I'm a tad late to the party, but does anyone know if this still available anywhere? I recently learned about this and would love to be able to see it.
Pretty late to the party here, but does anyone have any idea where this could be found? I just recently learned about this and can't seem to find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
