After watching the pilot episode I feel blisfully satiated with violence and humor. Or just hyped. It's nice though.

Any fans?

Cartoon Network, Adult Swim block. All I know of is the pilot episode, never heard of a second episode. Also it doesn't exist anymore as it was just a pilot and is probably in development (hopefully?) right now.

Yeah, they only had a pilot, but based on raving reviews they decided to make a season. It's due to be released this spring. You can get the first episode in one go (without youtube splitting) with torrents.

P.S. RObert E. Howard rocks!

Seems like I watched two parts of episode one then. I probably mistook that for two episodes, there you go.

this thread is now for talking about the upcoming 300: the film.

I just saw a movie that'll give your eyes boners, make your balls scream and make you poop DVD copies of THE TRANSPORTER. It's called 300. I don't know what the title has to do with the movie, but they could've called it KITTENS MAKING CANDLES and it'd still rule.

It's about these 300 Greek dudes who stomp the sugar-coated shit out of like a million other dudes. I have a feeling that a lot of high school sports coaches are going to show this film to their teams before they play. Also, gay dudes and divorced women are going to use screen captures for computer wallpaper.

The movie takes place about a million years ago, and it's sort of like a prequel to SIN CITY. Except way less guns and cars but twice as much skull splitting. If you watch this movie and go into a Taco Bell, and say to the cashier, "I need some extra sauce packets" guess what? You're getting twenty sauce packets because your face will punch him in the brain.

I can't spoil the plot because THANK GOD THERE ISN'T ONE. Just ass kicking that kicks ass that, while said ass is getting kicked, is kicking yet more ass that's hitting someone's balls with a hammer made of ice but the ice is frozen whiskey.

TWO COOL THINGS ABOUT THE MOVIE AND ONE THING I DIDN'T LIKE:

COOL THING ONE: HEAVY METAL DURING BATTLE SCENES

Who gives a shit if the music isn't historically correct? LORD OF THE RINGS could've used some Journey. This movie has that chu-CHUNG kind of metal that you hear in your head when your shift supervisor at Wetzel's Pretzel is telling you that you'll have to stay for clean up and you wish you had a sock filled with quarters in your hand.

COOL THING TWO: FOES, MINI-BOSSES AND A BIG BOSS

Basically, the Greek dudes are fighting these Persian dudes, but the director, who must have a dick made of three machine guns, does it all like a video game. The Greeks fight every death metal video from the last ten years. There's wave after wave of giants, freaks, ninjas, mutants, wizards, and a hunchback who looks like he's got Rosie O'Donnell on his back.

Would I have been happy if Dom DeLuise from HISTORY OF THE WORLD, PART I had shown up? Maybe, but this movie more than makes up for that glaring oversight.

NOT SO GOOD THING: DUDE NUDITY ("DUDE-ITY")

These are Greek times, when there were a lot of naked women around. And there are some naked women in this film, but almost every naked woman scene has a muscular dude giving the screen an ass picnic. Dude-ity is something directors put in their movies so people will think they're serious, I guess, and not just throwing in naked hotties.

Any directors reading this � IT'S OKAY TO JUST THROW IN NAKED HOTTIES.

Can't someone make a movie about naked Amazons and call it PAUSE BUTTON?

My final analysis is 300 the most ass-ruling movie I've seen this year, and will probably be the King of 2007 unless someone makes a movie where a pair of sentient boobs fights a werewolf.

yah, so... discuss

I look forward to minibosses and dudity.

Old. This was covered on DAC when the pilot was first released, before the summer of 2006. Albeit, in the wasteland, if I remember correctly.

Indeed, it does have potential to be a great show. However, they sure are taking their time starting the first season, as, according to Wikipedia, the series was picked up by Adult Swim shortly after the airing of the pilot-episode. Wikipedia says the first season is scheduled to start "sometime during spring 2007".

Hopefully, we will soon see some more episodes.

Korgoth on Wikipedia

It got cancelled so we can enjoy more "awesome" Tim and Eric super show and Saul of the Molemen.

Korgoth got cancelled due to "budget issues" with Adult swim. Apperently too much budget is going into the Tim and Eric Awesome Show and Saul the Moleman that new episodes of Korgoth aren't coming so it's effectively cancelled.

Wow. That's disgusting and just another reason why Tim and Eric can burn in hell and so can all of their retarded shows.
