We had to alter the poll from how it appears in the episode since it turns out the Transformers theme we played and attributed to Mute Math is in fact not Mute Math. Who knew the internet could be wrong?

Which of the new Transformers themes is best?

    Working and typing a comment to the Scope is dangerous.
    My bad! So despite my lack luster comment leaving…the show was fun. It was a nice look back at 1992.

    OMG! This was a very funny show guys.

    Loved the hole that you kept digging, funny as heck… butter captial, home of spam, and Sugar Beet Fargo I guess I stand corrected.

    I was referring totally to the last episode, 30.

    Shane had made a comment about how Gary was going to say something about the fact that you don’t talk about Woman singers

    Adam says and I do believe I quote “Ladies can’t sing you know”
    Shane says “They can’t they’re terrible”
    Adam says “I mean shouldn’t be allowed to sing”

    Random Year in review very cool.
    Danger Mouse Rocked!

    Can’t wait for the five nerds next time.

    Happy comments for this show!

    I remember “Body Parts”! “Shakes The Clown” was awesome! Saw it in the theater. Adam, as much as you hate me, our tastes are always dead on! Glad to know I’m not the only one who loves that flick. “DangerMouse” is E’ffing awesome! That with “You Can’t Do That On Television”!

    My picks:
    “Braindead” A.K.A. “Dead Alive” (Peter Jackson’s awesome horror film!)
    “Raising Cain” (De Palma’s last Huzzah)
    “Unlawful Entry” (It’s Kurt Russell)
    “Red Rock West” (Later to be remade as the God-awful ‘U-Turn’)
    “The Player” (Clever sleeper)

    “Cutting Edge” was big for the ladies! Worst film that year: “Toys”. There was a lot to choose from for bad movies as the 90’s were a decade of crappy films with few gems.

    Am I the only one catching that the Black Lab song is the ’86 movie song while “Atomizing” the city fight music from the same movie? Either way, the songs sucks. It’s like the “Godzilla” soundtrack all over again…

    Jessica Alba: On her way to being the next Paris Hilton – EW’s 25 action movie list reminds me why I cancelled my subscription – Steven Spielberg manipulating behind the scene? Reality T.V. being coached? NO! The only one getting the millions is Spielberg. I agree, great concept, but it’s poorly executed. Jared is right: It would be better to watch them make the movies.

    The Black Lab song is not from the new movie soundtrack, it is their own version of the 80s movie theme and is currently running away with the poll. Get voting, folks!
