Just...brilliant. Made of brilliant. :3





Things I Loved:

-Spoony expelling that...energy stuff after Lame R. Prick (yes, that is indeed his name. I Am Not Making This Up) decides to, well, unplug him. Seriously creepy.

-The Critic calling the other reviewers to arms. The music really does it.

-Mechakara's among the team! And while I will admit I was tempted to facepalm regarding how nobody noticed that their teammate was suddenly sounding...really evil and stuff, it was a pretty awesome twist. I mean, on the one hand, I know it was probably supposed to be played for laughs, but on the other, you'd think they'd start to ask a few questions, but on the other other, it definitely turns up the tension. And probably ties into the whole "someone's assimilating the crew" thing. Seriously, if Mechakara's working from the inside trying to dismantle the crew, that's seriously creepy. (Although, Mechakara, remember that time in the ULTIMATES 3 review when you disguised your voice so well nobody realized you were Linkara until the very end? Yeah...make use of that skill again. Unless you can't anymore...?)

-Snob and co.'s elaborate story about how Nella and Elisa landed in police custody. (And somehow, I want to write a fanfic involving exactly that: what if they did the things that Snob said they did? Granted, Snob was no doubt exaggerating, but still...)

-Insano's cameo. I'll admit, when he was describing the Plot Hole and the nature of time, I'll admit I almost expected him to follow it up with the timey-wimey stuff thing from "Blink" (hey, it's a good quote!), but the David Lynch movie speech was a lot funnier. XD Also, I'll admit the only thing I was really disappointed in was that Insano didn't join the mission (and stealing his stuff? Come on, guys. XD Okay, granted, desperate calls and all that, but still), but his cameo was still pretty cool. (Also, why do I have a feeling that stealing Insano's stuff is going to come back to bite Critic and co. in a really big way?) 

-Eight Bit Mickey taking on Lame R. Prick after one short joke too many. The result (though more implied than anything else) apparently would have impressed Ace. Seriously, Prick, when someone says, "I wouldn't do that if I were you", that's a sure sign you should probably leave. Seriously, don't mention the Bat Credit Card around the Critic, don't tell Diamanda Hagan that "Fear Her" was a good episode of DOCTOR WHO (or mention anything related to "Fear Her"), don't tell Linkara ONE MORE DAY was a good comic, and *never ever* call Eight Bit Mickey "Shorty". Besides, it's just rude.

-"Critic, won't that violate your house arrest?" "Why not? I'm not leaving the house." *Snickers*

-Another thing that made me laugh was Terl monologuing about how the Critic won't evade him -- while the Critic's house-spaceship flies past him. Yeah...that's why you don't monologue. You kind of miss important details (for example, your Designated Nemesis being right behind you the whole time).

-The Executor sending Zod to Terl after Prick is...put out of commission by Eight Bit Mickey. (Again, Ace would be impressed) Seriously, awesome scene. Which is followed by a pretty funny moment where after Zod says his catchphrase ("KNEEEEEL!"), Terl mistakes his name for "Neil". 



Overall, awesome. :3 Can't wait for the next part! :D

XD I was so happy when Part 2 came out!

"(Although, Mechakara, remember that time in the ULTIMATES 3 review when you disguised your voice so well nobody realized you were Linkara until the very end? Yeah...make use of that skill again. Unless you can't anymore...?)"

It's possible that Doug just didn't know about that. In the Suburban Knights commentary, the critics discussed how the slight continuity issues between their individual canons and the crossover events are usually because Doug just doesn't know everything they do. (For example, he still doesn't seem to realize that Linkara's magic gun fires lasers instead of actual bullets)

"I'll admit I almost expected him to follow it up with the timey-wimey stuff thing from 'Blink'"

I don't think Spoony's a big fan of Dr. Who. ^^; I know Linkara is (Film Brain put in the Dr. Who nods in their one crossover just because he liked it), but I think Spoony's said a few times that he doesn't care for the series.

"And somehow, I want to write a fanfic involving exactly that: what if they did the things that Snob said they did?"

XD Thanks. Now I want to write that fic too. Already distracted by the Hetalia Kink Meme, and now this. XD

What I find hilarious about the 8-Big Mickey scene is that when he comes upstairs after killing Prick, you can see "Help Me" written in blood on the back of his shirt.

"Yeah...that's why you don't monologue. You kind of miss important details (for example, your Designated Nemesis being right behind you the whole time)."

Of course, that's about on par with Terl's intelligence level in his actual movie, so it's strangely appropriate. XD

I sense major ham vs ham with Terl and Zod. XD

I agree! :D Seriously. :)

Ah. Makes sense. :) *Hasn't really watched the SUBURBAN KNIGHTS commentary yet* *is ashamed. XD*

Ah. Gotcha. :) Let's just say that it was my brain mentally filling in the rest of Insano's line. :) Although the David Lynch reference was funnier because it's so true! XD (From what I've heard of his stuff, that is. :)

And holy crap, I'll admit I didn't really notice that! Good call.

XD. So true. XD I swear, Terl takes home the gold medal in Bond Villain Stupidity. XD

*Eagerly awaits Zod and Terl Ham to Ham combat* :D

"*Hasn't really watched the SUBURBAN KNIGHTS commentary yet*"

It's all on YouTube, actually, in one long video. It's really funny. XD I love the stories they all have, especially Spoony's tale about him learning he was to play the Gatecleaner and the Gatecleaner's Wife (who the script described as "obviously Spoony in drag")

"And holy crap, I'll admit I didn't really notice that! Good call."

I didn't fully register it at first, but then it hit me who'd write something like that. XD

"*Eagerly awaits Zod and Terl Ham to Ham combat* :D"

Ohhh, as am I! I'm also waiting for Terl to drop his "I'm REAAAAAAAAALY ANGRY!" line at some point. You know it's gonna happen. XD

Sounds awesome! :D

And I agree with you, so very much. Seriously, I just want to see them bickering. XD. And hamming it up, of course. :)

Brilliant! So, so funny and I was really impressed by the whole Ghostbusters sequence. :D

Also, I'll admit the only thing I was really disappointed in was that Insano didn't join the mission

Maybe they decided to only give him a cameo because Spoony's already playing two main roles?

I agree! :D

And that's definitely a good explanation. Seriously. :3

Well, it's been a bit of time, but I released that plot bunny: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8562985/1/

Enjoy! :D
