I'm posting this comment before actually watching but I know this is going to be a good one anyway Bersecules. Just home from an encouraging hospital visit and I'm feeling really badly hit by this cold right now so some laughs would be great, looking forward to this.
I think the official reason for herbie was the fear that kids might set themselves on fire and try to fly. But I'm pretty sure it was just laziness on the animators parts. a3
review was a little curse filled for my liking, but the ballon chase bloopers at the end was pure magic. I demand 15 minutes of that, but like a scooby doo chase scene in and out of doors!
I absolutely love your blog - every time you post a review I end up laughing and leave happy. I finally found someone who uses the F bomb as much as I do. Thank you!!
They got rid of The Human Torch? WHAT THE FUCK?!? I think Bibleman is holier than Batman. So THAT'S what the red dot on your hand was for. It's really good to see another Bersercules review. I think I nearly died laughing, as per usual.
Oh and most of Dr. Doom's motivation did seem to be proving that he was better than Richards, and had very little to do with wanting power. Plus he wanted to bang the Invisible Woman.
Ah, I was crying! This video is absolutely hilarious! The reactions to the balloons were fantastic. I don't think I've seen anyone read so deeply into the meaning of balloons.
Lol, "Holy Bibleman!" The fifth balloon was for the Human Torch. You know, just in case. I think your little balloon skit was awesome. The editing was perfect.
Good point! The fifth balloon was probably for the Human Torch and they didn't show the scene cause the Torch beat the balloon and therefor it didn't go with the rest of the episode so they cut it out!
The red dot on my face was a healing cut, just to the side of my mouth on my cheek.
His mama didnt rassie him right to throw the mask in nearest garbage. hey," why are you playing with toygun? I am a business woman in the alley" Moral of the story: Dont throw balls on the ballons. You throw a dart or sharper object, and so empty air filled ballon brain doesnt count as sharper object as well. You swear too much, I am not able to play your video with my kids around. Finally that blue guy is wearing a hood, that qualifies and justifies to shoot him at sight. 4 super heroes and 1 hoodie guy who attacks with ballons? worse than icetea and skittles. SHAME on super heroes.
Dont judge me. My son for a while whenever he heard someone sneeze he was saying "f#@# you" instead of "bless you" without batting eyes, and with utmost sincerity and love. Till day I dont know where he caught that phrase from. Somehow we managed to change that. He was 3 years old that time.
LMAO Flintsone esqu apartment, that screams superhero right there. hahahaha they balloon came at all different angles too, so you actually did that multiple times..hahahaha...awesome.
Yeah I shot the balloon scene lots of times to get it right! My girlfriend is off to the side throwing the balloons at me as I run! We had a blast filming that scene!
I don't know what kind of drugs Stan Lee was on when he created that show... or maybe he just was spreading himself too thin with too many chracters and shows. Replacing the Human Torch with a robot was the first bad move, and it just gets worse from there. To be frank, I really can't blame Dr. Doom. These Fantastic "Fools" are just begging to have someone come mess with them. Honestly, Bersercules, if you had the chance, wouldn't you play some pranks on those 4 knuckle heads? Seriously, what a quartet of dorks!
You make some good and funny video reviews Bersercules, keep up the good work. ps: you need more subscribers on your youtube channel, there missing a great show.
Another time shift has occurred!! The bear and What The Fuck are back!! I was thinking "how could they not notice the red dots" about a second before you said it. The Hubby loves this cartoon and I've watched only a few episodes of it. Not my favorite, but it is from a distinct period and represents the period very well. Nice to have you back Bersercules!!
they probably didn't want kids burning themselves alive trying to fly like Human Torch. of course kids dumb enough to try that deserve their fate I say! ha. That robot IS retarded man. I remember watching old episodes of this as reruns when I was a kid and thinking....WTF?!?!
also, LOL @ Doctor Doom's head down Emo walk of shame.
I agree kids dumb enough to do that should be allowed to do that! I knew the Doom walk was silly but I never thought of it like that! I guess he should be called Doctor Emo!
It's been so long since we were on blogger at the same time that people were beginning to suspect that you were me in a disguise. We can now stop those pesky rumors!!
I did not notice the dot on your face,good surprise there. Also, I think they used the thing for the balloons because the artists had already messed up on making the thing walk, and they just re-used those cells. I bet the same thing happened when Stan Lee wrote this one. One big mistake, hashed and re-hashed until it lost all recognition.
My favorite part of the review is where you are running through the hall away from the balloon. Great stuff!
great review! now i have a question: how the -insert angry rude words here- did you get the video up? cause i tried and miserably failed, it wouldn't load! :-( did you have to stick yours on youtube or..?
I'm with you. Methinks Mr. Fantastic thinks a little too much of himself. Come to think of it, though, he DOES have the ability to stretch his little fella to over a foot. And I'll bet the Invisible Woman would think THAT was fantastic. While we're talking names, referring to yourself as Dr. "Doom" is a bit of an ego thing, too.
What the huh!?! Replace the only interesting character with a robot!?! Greeeaaaaaat. So now we're stuck with Mr. Pontificate, Brooklyn Stereotype, and Passive Aggressive Girl. "Flintstone-esque apartment" was great. As was "this isn't gonna get stupider is it? Awwww shit." If the Human Torch could see this, he'd go all Buddhist Monk, go to the steps of the Marvel Animation headquarters, and burn himself in effigy...OoooOOoooh. Shit, what would he do? Go all "emo-cutter"? Also, I'm pretty sure the cartoon version of the Thing is a racist caricature. I can't prove it, but it seems likely. Finally, can we get an extended Gif of you running from the balloon with the various screams. That tickled the shit out of me.
Glad you liked the video! I'm sure The Human Torch did go all Buddhist Monk on them! (but then again doesn't he always?) As for the Gif thing, I don't know how to make gifs but I know someone who does!
Sure, this is cool. But Stephen Colbert as the stretchy character on Venture Bros. was my favorite version!
ReplyDeleteGreat video review as usual!

ReplyDeleteI almost miss the classic fantastic 4 :)

ReplyDeleteWhat they should really fear is kids learning to treat woman as invisible!

Yeah I do like to swear.
DeleteGreat link, the Benny Hill music really makes it great! If I had multiple doors down a hall I'd shoot a video like that!!
I absolutely love your blog - every time you post a review I end up laughing and leave happy. I finally found someone who uses the F bomb as much as I do. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteYeah I do like to swear.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a laugh out of it!
that was funny!
ReplyDeleteI love superhero stuff, but this one isnt on my list. Mr. Fantastic and his stretchiness skeeves me. lol
ReplyDeleteThey got rid of The Human Torch? WHAT THE FUCK?!? I think Bibleman is holier than Batman. So THAT'S what the red dot on your hand was for. It's really good to see another Bersercules review. I think I nearly died laughing, as per usual.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it!
DeleteOh and most of Dr. Doom's motivation did seem to be proving that he was better than Richards, and had very little to do with wanting power. Plus he wanted to bang the Invisible Woman.
ReplyDeleteI guess Dooms just on a power trip! I don't know if he wants to bang the Invisible Girl but I know I do!
DeleteMachines replacing everything! down with robots >:(
ReplyDeleteOr up with robot! Let them to all the work and let people retire and relax!!
Deleteto = do
DeleteAh, I was crying! This video is absolutely hilarious! The reactions to the balloons were fantastic. I don't think I've seen anyone read so deeply into the meaning of balloons.
ReplyDeleteYeah lots of people think its odd I read in to things so much!
DeleteLol, "Holy Bibleman!" The fifth balloon was for the Human Torch. You know, just in case. I think your little balloon skit was awesome. The editing was perfect.
ReplyDeleteAlso no, there was a red dot on your face?

You should let your kids hear swears. My parents use to swear at eachother all the time when I was a kid, and I turned out okay!

DeleteLol great review i've only seen the movie
ReplyDeleteI have the movie on my computer but have yet to see it! I hope its a huge disapointment so I can review it!
DeleteLMAO Flintsone esqu apartment, that screams superhero right there. hahahaha they balloon came at all different angles too, so you actually did that multiple times..hahahaha...awesome.
ReplyDeleteYeah I shot the balloon scene lots of times to get it right! My girlfriend is off to the side throwing the balloons at me as I run! We had a blast filming that scene!
DeleteThe balloon thing reminds me of this
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH8UZJ1yMdY
is that part of the show based on a true story?
Holy Moley!! That video is crazy! Those people are terrified of balloons! I wonder why Maury didn't have the Fantastic Four on his show!
DeleteNice review!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what kind of drugs Stan Lee was on when he created that show... or maybe he just was spreading himself too thin with too many chracters and shows. Replacing the Human Torch with a robot was the first bad move, and it just gets worse from there. To be frank, I really can't blame Dr. Doom.

Seriously, what a quartet of dorks!
ReplyDeleteI don't play pranks! If I was Doom I'd defeat the Fantastic Four and take over the world! (and I'd rename it DonkeyLand!)
Deletewow, that makes 3 different fantastic four cartoons I know of.
ReplyDeleteYou make some good and funny video reviews Bersercules, keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteps: you need more subscribers on your youtube channel, there missing a great show.
I totally agree! But I can't seem to get people to watch my vids!!
DeleteWhat's not to like, cornball dialogue, WTF's, red balloons are scary but we can't dis Stan Lee ever!
ReplyDeleteAnother time shift has occurred!! The bear and What The Fuck are back!! I was thinking "how could they not notice the red dots" about a second before you said it. The Hubby loves this cartoon and I've watched only a few episodes of it. Not my favorite, but it is from a distinct period and represents the period very well. Nice to have you back Bersercules!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to be back! And yeah the cartoons definitely from a good time of cartoons! Lots of good shows from the late seventies and early eighties!
Deletei find the fantastic four to have some of the more useless abilities....
ReplyDeleteYeah with powers like theirs they'd be better as circus preformers!
DeleteI look at you and I can't stop laughing. Great video!
ReplyDeletethey probably didn't want kids burning themselves alive trying to fly like Human Torch. of course kids dumb enough to try that deserve their fate I say! ha. That robot IS retarded man. I remember watching old episodes of this as reruns when I was a kid and thinking....WTF?!?!
ReplyDeletealso, LOL @ Doctor Doom's head down Emo walk of shame.
I agree kids dumb enough to do that should be allowed to do that! I knew the Doom walk was silly but I never thought of it like that! I guess he should be called Doctor Emo!
DeleteYea you should watch the movie i'ts not too bad but I'm sure you can find enough flaws to make a rant video lol
ReplyDeleteIt's been so long since we were on blogger at the same time that people were beginning to suspect that you were me in a disguise. We can now stop those pesky rumors!!
ReplyDeleteStop the rumors? But we are the same person...
DeleteI still have to see the new movie... Awesome review by the way, lol.
ReplyDeleteI did not notice the dot on your face,good surprise there. Also, I think they used the thing for the balloons because the artists had already messed up on making the thing walk, and they just re-used those cells. I bet the same thing happened when Stan Lee wrote this one. One big mistake, hashed and re-hashed until it lost all recognition.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the review is where you are running through the hall away from the balloon. Great stuff!
Your probably right about that, they were probably reusing everything in this episode! Its like one big ad for recycling!
Deletegreat review! now i have a question: how the -insert angry rude words here- did you get the video up? cause i tried and miserably failed, it wouldn't load! :-( did you have to stick yours on youtube or..?
ReplyDeleteI always put my videos on youtube, and even then blogger can be a pain and make them hard to post here!!
DeleteDammit! guess thats the only way.. -sobs-
DeleteThe balloon at the end, OMG. I lol'd hard.
ReplyDeleteThey should prosecute Mr Fantastic under the sales description act...great nostalgia though
ReplyDeleteYou're right! He's false advertisment!
DeleteI don't know what the hell Stan Lee was doing with this cartoon. What a mess. That robot looks like Johnny 5 as drawn by a 6 year old. Great review!
ReplyDeleteWhat the fuck!? Water balloon fights this summer will never be the same!
ReplyDeleteYou are one funny dude! This was great! I'm going to be saying what the fuck like every 15 seconds for the rest of the week!
Great review!
I'm with you. Methinks Mr. Fantastic thinks a little too much of himself. Come to think of it, though, he DOES have the ability to stretch his little fella to over a foot. And I'll bet the Invisible Woman would think THAT was fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWhile we're talking names, referring to yourself as Dr. "Doom" is a bit of an ego thing, too.
I think you've just figured out why the Invisible Woman stays with Mister Fantastic!
DeleteI never quite understood why it wasn't ok to show a flaming human as opposed to a wise cracking robot.
ReplyDeleteWhat the huh!?! Replace the only interesting character with a robot!?! Greeeaaaaaat. So now we're stuck with Mr. Pontificate, Brooklyn Stereotype, and Passive Aggressive Girl.
ReplyDelete"Flintstone-esque apartment" was great. As was "this isn't gonna get stupider is it? Awwww shit."

i dont know man, u gotta fuel that fire somehow...
