The MASSIVE amount of property damage lead the sponsors to pull the plug, and that's before the race even made it out of the starting city. Any amounts of film that somehow survived the mayhem is used as Stock Footage for documentaries related to what becomes known as "The Great Amazing Race Debacle".

It was not only badass but it parodied the various sterotypes of typical disaster movies.

Unfortunately, the so-called King of Pop can't sing the lyrics in Japanese, so he hires an expensive translator to figure out the words in English, losing a lot in the translation.

On that note, Mugi-chan as the hostess of Iron Chef America.

Pretty much the same except for three things:

  • She's a lot nicer than Chef Ramsey.
  • Much Engrish ensues.
  • Afterschool Tea Time does the theme song (it's that one song about rice).

It causes a lot of controversy among the fanbase—some like it, and some don't. Don't mention it on certain forums, lest you cause an Internet Backdraft.

The male and female leads have Belligerent Sexual Tension now, until the end where they finally admit they love each other. Other than that, it's pretty much the same, except 50% more of a Cliché Storm, naturally.

"Oh my god Samus a bomb!" doesn't quite have the same ring to it. Still, players liken the game to the Metroid Prime trilogy, and it moves a decent amount of copies.

Hyperdimension Neptunia, but instead of Eastern (mostly Japan) game companies, every character is represented by a Western (North America, South America, European) game company. Bonus points for descriptions.

Valve is a Big Beautiful Woman and Gentle Giant, EA is a Corrupt Corporate Executive Emotionless Girl with a Money Fetish, Rareware is a Jaded Washout and Mean Brit due to working under her Control Freak of a boss, Microsoft. Blizzard is a basement dwelling Hikikomori (I think that's how you spell it) as a Take That! to World Of Warcraft players, and Bethesda is... TBA.

Merry christmas because this is some awesome crap. The movie's vintage aesthetic is, however, so Tarantino it may end up as a shot for shot remake. Just expect some feet or something to show up prominently.

A game specifically developed for those who didn't think Sonic Labyrinth was slow enough. It's even harder to depict the struggles of video games' "king of speed" when the text moves about as fast as the O.J. Simpson murder trial.

Timon takes Zero's place, with Pumbaa being his familiar. The show also used elements from their own spinoff show.

Spongebob and company partake in thrilling adventures that satirize the aspects of 18th century society, while managing to put a couple of marine biology/fart jokes that slip past the audiences' minds.

Then Tech N9ne appears, and the rest of the ballad is about how Tech N9ne could easily hand the Jokerr's ass in a plate, if he cared even in the slightest.

A story from the oh so beautifully drawn little sister's point of view, as Frank Fontaine and the Big Daddy's have stylish anime battles over her that may or may not be sexually motivated. Interspersed with some slice of life comedy and a few monologues.
