I can’t wait for Season 2, where Sweet Tooth says “I AM the Twisted Metal” as he bends one of those shitty metal girders used in Chinese skyscraper construction before getting run over by CrazyBus

Legit, surprised the show wasn't an absolute trash fire. Here's hoping season 2 is just as good if it comes out.

Another reason why casting a wrester is good idea for a masked character. 1. Keeping the mask ON is part of the trade for some. 2. They know how to act by body language and looks. and I bet they can become good stuntmen with not much work, since they know how to take bumps.

Hollywood really knows when to strike while the iron is frigid.

I fear the fact that since the superhero genre have run it's course in the mainstream video games are next, and seeing how they butcher some story lines and characters from the comics it doesn't fill me with much hope.

Interesting note on Sweet Tooth's backstory, they do reference his *real* father was a cab driver (aka Yellowjacket), and that he hadn't seen him in years. So they left a nice big door open for any of Sweet Tooth's extended family to show up.

I always considered "Death Race" with Jason Statham as an unofficial "Twisted Metal" movie.

1:53 I actually got my 3 year old niece to play jak X and now whenever she comes running into my room she says "racing game racing game" although she only knows how to press the x button so I control the analog stick for her. She has a lot of amusement when the car explodes though.

To be honest, I like this far more than The Last of Us. It's not perfect, but at least it was fun, for the most part.

We clowning around

This show had no right being as fun as it was. I was having an incredibly bad week at the time and it just hit me so right. I cant wait for s2.

>talks about car fighting games >doesn't mention Carmaggedon > goddamnit

I hate it when people bring up the Halo show because every time I remember, they changed Master Chief’s name to Master Cheeks, and Cortana to Cucktana.

Samoa Joe is a wrestler first and foremost. The man knows how to act with his body and knows how to play a role that’s given to him. wrestlers can be some of the best actors that’s literally all they do. Some though don’t have the best speaking voices. Let’s just say Samoa Joe’s diction is not as good as his body language Well, I don’t entirely agree with Will Arnett as sweet tooth. I think it was the better choice. Personally, I think Clancy Brown would’ve made a great sweet tooth voice

Honestly I would say the two biggest issue for the show is that one it’s on a streaming service that most likely no one has and two the way they tried to promote the series was very bad, They really should’ve showed some thing else to catch peoples interest in to the series. Since bad marketing can easily kill any interest in any product if not careful.🐱

I really hope this means we’re getting a new game soon

I really miss Calypso. The guy was always my favorite character. Hope he makes his return.

Angry Joe's review of Twisted Metal was hilarious, because he clearly only played Black, and was disappointed there were ANY jokes.

Buckethead mentioned, mad respect.

Honestly, the reference to small brawl is adorable. 🎩 🐍 no step on Snek!🇺🇸🇭🇰

now with the dust settled Anon stood before me. "oh mr calpyso." he said, the cheeto crumbs trailing from his lips "please, we've not had a twisted metal game in years, i love the franchise so. can you please bring it back?" With a wave of my hands the wish was granted. the terrible work began, the rights holder was bought out and devs working tirelessly without pause. it was only a couple years before it was released. I hope he enjoys the tv series, I know I did I AM CALPYSO AND I THANK YOU FOR PLAYING TWISTED METAL.

Oi, producers, I know ye're watching. There are A LOT of swell metal bands out there who'd gladly jump on a chance at a break through. No excuses. Life needs more electric guitars and drums.

How no one has gotten Sam Raimi to direct a Resident Evil movie is beyond me.

That "TIME TO PLAY." was absolutely mag-fucking-nificent. I go way back with Twisted Metal and this looks like some good fun. Amazing vid as always loli.

I watched Netflix Castlevania and bought the first season on blu-ray. It was good. Season 2 was better... but then everything went downhill. Also... DID THEY JUST REFEENCE SMALL BRAWL? I am surprised they'd do that but it is adorable nonetheless. I get the feeling we are going to have quite a number of deep cut references in season 2. Especially given the various forms Calpyso has taken. Solid review, glad to have stayed up to date with most of Twisted Metal's content through TBP, though you should probably add a link to his channel in the description.

Who the fuck hates Jak X!?

Finally! A few other reviewers I follow only mentioned. Yet chad Loli delivers out of the blue.

It isn't perfect but I had fun watching it with my roommate and his GF. Hopefully the next season has a bigger budget to do the game's large-scale battles justice for more than an episode or two.

This show threads the needle between turn your brain off action and genuinely good story without ever feeling like its treating its audience like the paste eaters they probably are

I can somewhat respect them saving the Twisted Metal tournament for the second season while the first gives us characters to bond with and establish the world they inhabit. Honestly it sounds like they did it way better than that Mortal Kombat movie from a few years ago where they just bait and switched the tournament out of the movie.

I remember when I was 4-5 having twisted metal on the ps1 with one of those wheel controls. man those were the times......

First time I heard of twisted metal and Sweet Tooth was from Playstation Allstars Battle Royale. It introduced alot of legendary characters from playstation.

With this and one piece we really had a surprising year of live action adaptation

Jak X was a game I hated as a kid because I liked the main 3 so much going into something just dedicated to the racing seemed stupid to me. A few years later when I went back to play the series, I loved it as much as the others.

You know judging from the first look, I thought this was going to be some Netflix Bebop level of crige adaptation, but I was pleasantly surprised that the Twisted Metal show was actually kinda decent. Not perfect, but I'm glad I was proven wrong that this didn't end up being a complete trainwreck.

19:08 Actually you're wrong on one point. He didn't kill anyone who didn't like his show. He killed them for LYING about liking his show. That's why he's cool with the protagonists afterwards, they told him the truth that it sucked.

Yeah I think they hinted Axle being someone that's going to pop up in the next season, I forget what when it happened but I just remember thinking "maybe that's going to be him" after a bit towards the end of the 1st season. 😄👍

I played every twisted metal game and I gotta say I'm so happy they did well with this show. It's like seeing an old childhood friend again

If they're gonna do a live action show about a vehicular combat game from the 90s, can I have Interstate '76?

.50 cal would turn any car into swiss cheese

I love High Plains Drifter.

I have never heard of the Twisted Metal series outside of your streams so this sounds like something I should check out.

Always thought the otherworldly element to Dark Tooth in tm2 made him one of the scariest characters. Not to mention his badass intro vibing to his even more intense revamp of the intro theme turning to pure shock seeing him for the first time before getting mulched by a wall of missiles and ram damage. They never managed to get his "feel" right after 2. Sure, sweet tooth in 4 is usually considered the hardest boss, but everything about Dark Tooth in TM2 oozed pure gasoline fueled adrenaline. By far my favorite iteration of the character.

"Some people consider Mario Kart to be a car combat game." That's like calling Fortnite a Call of Duty clone because they both have guns.

So let me see if I got this right. If it was around 2018 / 2019 and I went to Calypso saying "Damn, Rev 2 was a pretty awesome game, I want a new Guilty Gear!", would he make Str*ve happen?

If I can make it through episode 1, I’ll check the rest out.

I was honestly surprised that it was a pretty fun series. Admittedly part of me was hoping for it to be as fucked up as Black was, but alas, it was not to be. And yeah, the lack of metal was weird. Then again, Hollywood seems to be scared of using it in anything unless it's "ironic."

I NEVER expected a game from my childhood to get a series must watch

I want to see that Castlevania video, as I also liked the first 2 seasons, I really want to hear your thoughts on Season 3 because well there's alot to be said about the choices made.

TIL that Welcome to Raccoon City is something completely different than the Netflix series.

24:33 thank you Saul

24:30 Heh, it reminds me of that comic book shop episode of Malcolm in the Middle.

Okay I'm new to this franchise but the show really wasn't selling me on this but your video did a great job I'm actually interested to check it out thank you loli

The synopsis sounds like they made their main characters based (homages) on Kojima's games.

Twisted Metal 3 was the first game I got for playstation as a young man along with Crash Bandicoot and a fighting game called Ehregeiz. I have many fond hours playing it especially with my Dad and younger brothers. My old man even went as far as to go out and get a quad adapter so we could play 4 player. It came as a shock that its considered the weakest in the series I never really researched it. Were I a perpetually online insane person this is where I would insert the long rant about you having no taste or something because, by not liking product I would rationalize you are attacking me. Or something to that ridiculous effect. Its good to know the series isn't a total bomb initially when my brother texted me the trailer I immediately dismissed it as another soulless cash grab but, you've definitely changed my mine loli I will check it out. Thanks for the heads up homie.

I remember playing Vigilante 8 with my little brother and my neighbor. Those were the days 😢

Always look forward to seeing another video

For me this was perfect. Me and my boyfriend where highly glad it got announced and when the trailer dropped of sweet tooth we knew we needed more context before judging it, then we watched it and we had a blast! I only was able to point out dragqueen, Raven and the Kelly reference at the bar, and Mortimer's car first, since i've only been a fan for 5 years, and my boyfriend who played the games since he was a kid and play them even now was able to point out who was who, what game they are from, cars, and so on. We have our own theory about what season 2 could be about, but I got who I wanted out of twisted metal. Kinda hoping for them to do more with the Blackfield Asylum just to point out that others where from there, and are going to try to go to the tournament. Mostly because I want crazy 8 on the soul fact of him being my favorite character in black. I can admit this. I have no shame wanting my boi to be in the series. For my bf he wanted to see Axel, and my god season 2 is hinting at a lot with him, that I can't wait to see where it goes with John's story. Lastly for season season to set up for the tournament as a whole just makes too much sense to me and my partner. Here me out here. We looked at the date and we where just like, "It's not December 24 so no way the tournament is any time soon" cause yeah. That's the only canon that has been kept with the series. The twisted metal tournament is always on Christmas eve. Which is why in some areas of maps in game you see Christmas things everywhere for those who do not know.

Whoa, whoa, WHOA! MY DOG?!

Honestly, while I do like this series, I feel that it would've been a lot better had it been animated to fit TM 2 and HO's comic book look.

I LOVE that you pointed out the opening song for TM 2!! There were times I would put that game in just to listen to that song!!😂 It was so BAD ASS!!

Vehicular combat games that I know: Twisted Metal saga, Vigilante 8, Vigilante 8: 2nd Offence, Vigilante 8: Arcade, Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012, Interstate '76 and Destruction Derby!

I'm taking that Postal clip back to the fedi for when we have a 4 day hellthread.

10:55 lmao, Chicago and San Francisco surviving the apocalypse.

Look, alright, Twisted Metal 4 is awful, but I love it. It was my favorite game on the PS1. Glad to see the show isn't awful though, I'll have to give it a watch

Hadn't heard anything about it until now. Looks decent. Wouldn't mind giving it a watch. And that Subaru is glorious I gotta say.

I gotta say, the title of this show is kinda misleading, a lot of the metal I'm seeing in this show actually looks pretty stable and structurally sound.

Didn't mind it, didn't like it. Should have gotten Rob Zombie's Dragula.

i could listen to you discuss your favorite flavor of paint to watch dry

I binged this show in a day, and it was so fun my roommates walked in while I was halfway through and got invested.

Twisted Metal Black is still one of the best entries in the whole series.

I knew it would be full of soul when they revealed Harold.

I was okay with Quiet's until the last two episodes where she pissed me off. They had the nerve to make it like Anthony Mackie's character was in the wrong but she was completely in the wrong.

4:55 I need someone to say something to sweet tooth. He really doesn’t like in season two that makes him snap and then have this music start to play before he goes completely psychotic on the person

If they end up getting more clowns to follow sweet tooth, I hope to God they get the original actor for Sweet tooth and the first game and the one who played him in 2012 also

I was pleasantly surprised and the music choices were 👌

legit had no clue this came out already

Welcome to Racoon city might've been a mess in so many counts but one thing I appreciated about it was, as far as western live action adaptions of RE, it's the one I feel had the most love for the series.

I wish nothing but good things for Twister and Flower Power

The best character is Preacher.😂

Thank you for the review

resident evil is hard To do because it's a weird mix of super serious, scary and disturbing, and also high levels of camp without being a lot of the most recent games have given up on doing the mix with the most loved modern games being 4 (full camp) 7 (full horror)

Had a blast watching some of this. 😄👍

I wonder how many people remember Red Asphalt? A game that had a hell of a background and lore in the case booklet. Still remember and love it to this day. Castlevania was definitely better in the first and second seasons. The third had its moments but Hector was done dirty as was Alucard (not to mention the cringe that was some of the shit regarding Carmilla). Season 4 was similar. Some good, some bad, a lot of cringe.

6:06 they just like me fr fr

My theory is that despite what Raven says, this won't be the first Twisted Metal tournament. I suspect that Raven has won one before, and it's why she has the power she does over New San Francisco - or like you said, why the world fell apart in the first place. Someone just wishing for all the computers in the universe to stop working would have absolutely triggered the events of the show.

I read somewhere that Capcom will not allow a 1:1 recreation of Resident Evil. Not sure if it’s true since they said it was in a Japanese magazine.

Was this show talked about in the US? In Australia this show was on one of the lesser popular streaming services. No one knew about it

The last couple episodes were hype. Twister should have done her special....

Jak X was a certified hood classic and I refuse to back down from that. It was a legitimately good game and I liked the additional story and characters to the Jak franchise.

Now I want to play twisted metal 2 again

How did Loli manage to fit a Saul cameo into a fucking Twisted Metal of all things?

They got Samoa Joe for Sweet Tooth?! Damn he looks great in this! I might sit down to watch just to look at his crazy ass.

Kay am gonna buy ONE Hoodie so people know I like Naked Women of Asian Origins

WHERES MA BOI MINION?! Honestly though, I'm okay with a slow burn first season, it really allows for the second season to explode on the screen and gives a good backdrop to the carnage for the unfortunate folks who didn't get to play the games growing up. Also, the soundtrack should be metal.

Mannn I wish Samoa Joe was also the voice cause bro is a menace cutting a promo

You know it's going to be a good vid if it starts with Paint it Black

Hmm, this puts a whole new spin of the TNA fans chants of "joes gonna kill you!"

I really liked Wayne, mught give this a shot later, never played the games tho

3 also had meet the creeper.
