Heavy Metal

This is without a doubt one of the BEST animated films I have EVER SEEN in my entire life! It consists of a series of stories centering around this green orb called "The Locnar". It can be either funny or scary depending on the segments. Plus, how often does an animated film come along featuring songs by Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Devo, Donald Fagen, Don Felder, Grand Funk Railroad, Sammy Hagar, Journey, Nazareth, Stevie Nicks, Riggs and Trust? Not too often, I'd say. This is a GREAT movie! If you haven't seen it already, I suggest renting it and checking it out.

Wow, this is an oldie, heh. But a goodie! I like this movie also. It's funny you mention it; I have a copy of someone's right now to watch again.

I've watched it once and I was pretty impressed with most of it, then the naked chick showed up and my girlfriend got angry. She thought I was watching cartoon porn or something.

Very cool movie. I need to pick it up on DVD one of these days, I just always seem to forget to do it when I'm at the store.

I never made it through Heavy Metal 2000. I think it's because I didn't like it being a full-length story as opposed to the original being an anthology piece. Given how the Heavy Metak magazine was an anthology horror/sci-fi book, the sequel really shouldn't have strayed from that angle.

I haven't picked up the magazine in a long while. Maybe I'll grab a copy next time I'm at the comic shop and show Kevin Eastman some support.

Yes Heavy metal was such a great cartoon and it doesn't matter how old the cartoon is, I still enjoy it.

Wow... really? Huh. I watched it WITH my guy friend. I mean, not belittling your gal or anything... It just surprises me. I guess I just don't think like alot of girls, heh. Oh well...

Anyhow, now I seriously have to find some time to watch this again.

(And nooooo not 'cause of the naked chicks. 'Cause it was cool.)

It had more to do with the situation. She showed up at my house around 9pm and came inside, my door was closed, she opens it and sees me sitting on the couch watching same naked cartoon chick. Kind of a weird situation.
