ROBOT CHICKEN Season 5 DVD Review

by Rob Wieland    Posted: November 9th, 2011 at 5:42 am

Seth Green lives a life that would make many geeks sell their souls to El Diablo Robotico. He’s been a part of multiple defining franchises ranging from Austin Powers to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He’s gotten George Lucas to laugh at the excesses of Star Wars. And, for the past five years, he’s been getting paid to play with dolls on camera. It’s hard to believe Robot Chicken has been around for that long, but the season five DVD is here. More on the new set after the jump.

ROBOT CHICKEN: STAR WARS EPISODE III Blu-ray Review

by Rob Vaux    Posted: August 9th, 2011 at 4:00 pm

I can’t imagine what an alien visitor, new to our culture, would make of the Robot Chicken Star Wars series. It steeps itself so deeply in Lucas minutia – relying so completely on our innate pop culture knowledge of that galaxy far, far away – that non-fanboys will likely find themselves more baffled than amused. If you understand the phrase “Han Shot First,” however, or know the difference between Tatooine and Dantooine, then the latest Robot Chicken Star Wars special may be the funniest thing you’ve ever seen in your life. Hit the jump for the full review.

Comic-Con 2011: ROBOT CHICKEN Panel Recap; New Episodes Spoof GREEN LANTERN, Gollum, and HALO

by Hunter Daniels    Posted: July 23rd, 2011 at 11:38 am

Robot Chicken is an ADHD-riddled show with 15 jokes a minute and a sadistic sense of humor, so too was this year’s panel. Never a place to go for actual news on the show, the Robot Chicken crew showed up on stage to show clips, answer fan questions and riff endlessly.

Other than the fact that the Seth Green apparently actually had a meeting with Hasbro about making a real line of My Little Pony Apocalypse action figures (it ain’t happening in this lifetime), there was no real information in this panel. There were, however, plenty of laughs.  Read on for choice quotes.

Disney has released the first trailer plus new images for their upcoming animated film Mars Needs Moms.  The plot centers on a young boy who goes to rescue his nagging mother after she’s abducted by Martians since, as the you probably gleamed from the title, the red planet requires responsible caretakers for their young.  If you like easy vomit jokes, poop jokes, and characters swimming in the uncanny valley, then this may be the movie for you.

First Posters for THE FIGHTER and MARS NEEDS MOMS

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: October 18th, 2010 at 8:09 pm

I always enjoy it when our poster articles have something for all tastes, and in this instance, I think we can deem the gamut run.  In one corner we have The Fighter, the adult boxing drama/awards contender which stars Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, and Amy Adams.  In the other waits Mars Needs Moms, the family-friendly sci-fi animated comedy which features the voices of Seth Green, Dan Fogler, Elisabeth Harnois, Mindy Sterling, Kevin Cahoon, and Joan Cusack.  Check out the new posters for both after the jump.

Creators of ROBOT CHICKEN Seth Green and Matthew Senreich to Launch Online Reality Experiment CONTROLTV

by Jason Barr    Posted: September 1st, 2010 at 7:41 am

The guys responsible for the Emmy award-winning Robot Chicken are setting their sights on reality television.  Per THR, creators Seth Green and Matthew Senreich are preparing to launch an “online reality experiment in which viewers decide every major decision a person makes for six weeks.”  The experiment, known as ControlTV, will begin this fall on the DBG Video Network and will consist of a twenty-something man being told what to do (i.e. what to eat, wear, who to date, etc.) in real-time by online users.

For more info on ControlTV and for why I’m interested in seeing how audiences respond to the series, hit the jump.

Animated STAR WARS Comedy TV Series Being Developed by ROBOT CHICKEN Creators Seth Green and Matthew Senreich

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: April 5th, 2010 at 2:44 pm

Lucasfilm Animation is developing a Star Wars animated comedy TV series with Robot Chicken creators Seth Green and Matthew Senreich.  In his 90-minute review of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, I think Mike Stolkasa did a good job of explaining that George Lucas isn’t an artist but a businessman and he sees his job as expanding the Star Wars brand as far as it will go.  He’s had a gigantic hit with the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated TV series, so it’s not surprising he would move ahead with a Star Wars television show geared towards making fun of the property.  Outrage among fans about treating the franchise so cheaply has obviously fallen on deaf ears.

You can read a statement from Green after the jump [via The Live Feed], but I think he fails to understand that it’s better when fans lovingly poke fun at the Star Wars universe rather than the behemoth of Lucasfilm trying to lampoon that universe.  Fans already do a good job of creating humor Star Wars so why does Lucasfilm feel the need to do it themselves?  Because there’s always more money the company could make.

OLD DOGS Blu-ray Review

by Andre Dellamorte    Posted: March 18th, 2010 at 6:39 am

That Robin Williams and John Travolta made a terrible comedy together is no surprise, the only notable aspect is that it was made in 2009 and called Old Dogs. Neither is above doing shit, and shit is what they made. But it’s interesting to think of how many times the two could have been paired: It could have been done in the early 80′s as a miss-matched partners comedy. It could have been done any time in the 1990′s post-Pulp Fiction. And had this film come out in the mid-to-late 90′s, it would have been almost the same film too. The two star as ad execs with Williams finding out the woman (Kelly Preston) he married on a lark had twins and is about to go to jail. The kids need looking after and these long time bachelors have to find out if they can be parents. My review of Old Dogs after the jump.

Adult Swim Orders 40 More Pieces of Robot Chicken

by Keith Demko    Posted: January 21st, 2010 at 8:21 am

With Robot Chicken being its highest rated show, it should really come as no shock that [adult swim] has ordered more episodes of the hit animated program, but the size of the renewal might surprise you.

[adult swim] has handed the insanely fast and often just as funny stop-motion animation show from creators Seth Green and Matthew Senreich an order of 40 more episodes, meaning it will be on the air for at least a fifth and sixth season. Though the show can often make you feel like you have adult ADD much of the time and would probably go down best while stoned (I can’t attest to that, at least lately), it still hits its many targets much more often than it misses.

Hit the jump to hear what Green had to say about the renewal, and more about what else the Stoopid Monkey production company is up to.

Fox Plans to Exert Greater Dominance in Animated TV Programming by Ordering a New Animated Show from the ROBOT CHICKEN Gang

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: September 29th, 2009 at 10:26 pm

Fox’s Sunday line-up of “Animation Domination” did very well for the network this past week with the season premiere of “Family Guy” and the series premiere of its spinoff, “The Cleveland Show”.  With Seth Green already set to write an episode of “The Simpsons”, Fox is hoping that Green can bring the magic from his Emmy-nominated “Robot Chicken” to the network’s primetime line-up.  Hit the jump to keep mourning the loss of “King of the Hill”.
