    I thought it was cute to repeat the early speech synthesis until that unfunny AVGN did a sequence which got posted all over the internet where he and the game said "Bawmer" to each other for a minute. He then said "what the fuck is that shit" or something similar. i'll tell you what "the fuck that shit is", junior: a really good attempt considering the technology of the time at making the voice sound something like a southeastern US human instead of a robot.

    Bea Arthur's scene was.. well god bless her she tried her best. I remember her being interviewed on the subject. She was told to adlib a sketch about closing down the cantina, and her statement was something like "I don't understand why it had to be this big fucking deal getting closed early, I mean the bar was going to open again the next day, right?"

    Did you watch the Bea Arthur scenes in slo mo?

    Not necessary. The whole movie seems to move in slow motion on its own.

     

    (In fairness, though, I have to say that Bea Arthur did as good a job as anybody could possibly have done with the lousy material she was given in that "production." At least she doesn't come out of it looking as stupid as Harvey Korman.)

     

    My wife once asked me what I would like as my last request if I were to be executed. I said my last wish would be to watch the Star Wars Holiday Special, because I'd have time for my children to be born and sent off to college before it was over.

    For those of you wondering why the Golden Girls seem to end up in almost every Intellivision thread, here's why. Rev, Dude and I have a 65 page long PM, much of which is not fit for human consumption, and here is but one line from this very long private message without any context whatsoever (and with Rev's permission, as he was the writer of this fateful sentence).

     

    i personally use golden girls to get in the mood. :lust:

     

    And with that, a legend was born....

     

     

    The title of this thread sounds like a new homebrew for Intellivision:

    Revolutionika and Bea Arthur's funbags!

     

     

    Kind of a weird game like: Revenge of the Beefsteak Tomatoes!

     

    I hope Groovybee starts programming this game soon, i cant wait to play with funbags on my Intellivision. :lust:

     

    Yeah like give him an Indiana Jones hat, and have him collecting literal bags of fun things like toys and candy... use a shot of her form the Star Wars Holiday Special on the cover....

    It's a good thing he did send Pitfall, because that was gnawed on and destroyed by the packrats! So were Astrosmash (grrr no HSC for me this week), Beamrider (not to worry, I had two spares), Commando (never even got to try it due to moving and housebuilding)

     

    Ouch! Did the rats* actually chew up the circuit boards? If not, you can probably pull the PCBs and put them in a different cart shell.

     

    *(or whatever rodent it was -- I seem to remember it was a different species)

     

    Yep, bushy tailed woodrats! And yes, they ate the pcbs. They're studious little pricks. some of my other carts are missing little chunks but the boards are untouched so they work fine. Commando was totally destroyed though. Ate the label, everything. Left me half a board and part of the case without label. I had to do ivnentory to figure out what it was.

    Below are photos of the boxes Rev sent, the Inty sent, and my current collection. The boxes are a big surprise; never expected to get them, and as you can see.. it's a Zeller's/Sears Super Arcade that was sent! I've folded the games Rev sent into my collection; he sent Pitfall, Carnival, Donkey Kong, and Atlantis. It's a good thing he did send Pitfall, because that was gnawed on and destroyed by the packrats! So were Astrosmash (grrr no HSC for me this week), Beamrider (not to worry, I had two spares), Commando (never even got to try it due to moving and housebuilding), and He-Man, but it turns out I have a little money so I think I can at least afford to buy He-Man again. Or I'll see about trading, as I have spares of Atlantis, Microsurgeon, Beamrider, Dreadnaught Factor, Beauty and the Beast and Stampede. Enough rambling, here's the images!

    What can I say? I am a happy, happy man.
