I thought the same thing myself and speaking of Dinosaurs, next year sentai series is going to be Dinosaur themed(That's the 3rd dinosaur themed sentai for those keeping score) but with a twist. The dinosaurs are going to hologram pets that the heros partner with leading to alot speculation that the series is a tribute series to Digimon since 2013 is the 15th anniversary.GamemasterAnthony said:
On top of which, the series is being rumored to being writen by Yoshio Urasawa who not only wrote the "japanese" 1st season for digimon, but also worked on Carranger and Abaranger.
You know, I always tell people that I'd watch The Big Picture even if it wasn't my job to do so, because I enjoy it so much. Aaaaaaaand episodes like this are why. Because now I know this movie exists, and that makes me terribly happy.
OK that means I got something to show a friend of mine, he likes hallucinations I believe... Or I just show him what I just watched.
But I think I will get him drunk before..
Oh and well that was a weird episode... but fun in some way still..

Ah yes, Attack of the Supermonsters. It was 2002's selection for Mystery Anime Theater 3000 at Otakon.
The writers for MAT3K actually complained that mocking the film was just too easy, and went back to more conventional fare the next year.
Pity they had the good sense never to make those tapes publicly available, but still... Funny stuff.

This looks.... like the greatest thing ever made.
I'm not joking, this looks so incredible, I... I have nothing to say. Absolutely astonishing. I think I'm going to buy a Lotto Ticket and rent Scorpion King 3, because I cannot think of anything better to do today from seeing this exist.
It's like when I first saw Dollman, I was at a loss for words. I thought that was the greatest movie ever made, but then I found this exists and... I've seen the error of my ways, I think.

For years now my favourite "so bad it's good" movie was Godzilla vs. King Kong. The first time a bunch of friends and I watched it on VHS we actually had to stop watching because we were all in pain from our howls of laughter. It looks like Attack of the Super Monsters might actually be even more hilarious.
Ha! Great one. I'm friggin' dying over here laughing. Bob, my neighbor had one of those huge, 80s-style satellite dishes in his back yard. His family was from Japan and they liked to watch pretty much only Japanese channels. I got to see Go Lion (the show they made Voltron out of)in it's original, uncut beauty. And I swear to goodness that I've seen this show before. Then again, there were about fifty million of these shows on at any given time. Great show as usual man. Thanks!
I seen a clip of this movie many times at an anime convention during a lame anime panel.
Glad I got more insight on this movie/anime/Idunno

Stop melting my brain! Between Calculus, weird pop culture, and trying to understand people in general my neurons will never reassemble.
hey bob,
I think that "Izenborg" in the Japanese name is actually German and stands for the German word "Eisenberg" which can be translated as "Iron Mountain".
This is of course a theory and de facto unimportant, but I thought I tell you anyway.
The only way of making sure is by someone who speaks Japanese.

I judge how good a schlocktober episode is by the number of times a surprised "...the fuck?" is forced out of me. By those standards, I may have to conclude this is the best one yet, narrowly beating out King King Lives.
