How many people like HomestarRunner? - Page 2

*Voltron* · 09-21-2003, 08:24 PM

Homestar is my hero. Adult Swim was in talks with the Chapman brothers to make a Homestar Cartoon. Didn't make it though because it, "made no sense and had no plot."

I think that was the worst day of my life.

Voltron, that wasn't the reason the show wasn't aired. Cartoon Network approached the Chapman Bros, but they didn't want to give up their characters to the capitalistic world called marketting. Kind of like the whole Spongbob Squarepants deal when the original creator didn't want all that marketting crap done to exploit his stuff. Besides, then the website wouldn't be free to us as it is now, because of copyright issues and etc.

Well if this is all true, that was a good call.

Then I was misinformed, and thankful that I still have my free Homestar. Thank you friend Cooksux, my ignorance is now dead.

My favorite email is the "japanese cartoon."

"ARE YOU ASKING FOR A CHALLENGE?!?!?"

The items I'll be getting soon would be a CGNU Shirt and some Costers.

I just came up from checking my mail, and I just saw a person wearing a Trodgor shirt!

Teen Girl Squad

I like Issue 4 the best.

Every issue would contain either Cloud eating birds or Helicopter attacking birds.

Homestar Runner is pure gold. Anytime someone in public yells "Hey Steve", my friends and I burst into laughter.

*That Matt Guy* · 09-23-2003, 06:06 AM

From what I have seen, I like those holiday cartoons the best. Just seeing Homestar dressed up as Angus Young on one of the Halloween ones really cracked me up.

*damnhooligan* · 09-23-2003, 07:31 AM

Not sure if anyone's seen this interview from G4, but it's a rare look at Los Hermanos Chapman. Matt even busts out his Strong Bad and Bubs impressions for the camera.

Nice link there, thanks.

CookSux · 09-24-2003, 09:40 AM

How come it doesn't work for me?

*Dr. Doom* · 09-30-2003, 08:57 AM

Try copying/pasting? -=shrugs=-

*Voltron* · 09-30-2003, 11:47 AM

I love the constant 80's references. It does my heart good to see my childhood in Flash form.

Ninja Tiptup · 09-30-2003, 06:03 PM

I love Homstar Runner and all it's wackyness. My one beef is that they haven't referenced TMNT yet. I'm sure they will someday.
