Democratic HCR Strategy, the “Nuclear” Option and the 2010 Elections for Giant Robot Fans

Hint: Giant Robot is the Democrats, Emperor Guillotine is the Republicans…and 2010 is whichever one returns from outer space intact.

Villain in lamé pajamas, wearing rubber squid head:

“MY BODY IS A MASS OF ATOMIC ENERGY!”

Ineptly dubbed good guy in trilby hat:

“Don’t be ridiculous!”

And that was just a tiny thumbnail!

Thanks, Strange; wait until the inventors of guillotine panels find out we have emergency reserves!

Well, Emperor Guillotine does give off a distinctly Republican vibe and he attempts to fondle Giant Robot’s junk at 2:47 as a defensive tactic but I didn’t hear him offer any cash before doing so. It could be that he did in the original but the people who dubbed this into English thought that it made no sense and so they left it out. So yeah, probably a Republican.

My fingernails have similar powers.

What I find remarkable is the number of times the tide of the battle turns in the course of 60 seconds, and how surprised the guys in the orange helmets are when they realize they’re actually winning.

Also, I believe the meteor-thingy represents Reconciliation, and Johnny Sokko (the kid with the wristwatch) is either the Lefty Blogosphere, Howard Dean or the Smoot-Hawley Act.

I laughed, I cried, I wet my pants. Giant Robot doesn’t come back. Johnny Sokko took to the bottle and died in an alleyway in Sapporo, penniless and alone. Thanks, Giant Robot.
