SPECIAL EXTRA UPLOAD!
RUMINATIONS: The Warrior #1 review was insanely popular, so when we got together again to film Kickassia, I knew we had to follow it up with the next Warrior comic. Since Spoony handled the heavy lifting for the first crossover, I decided I'd take on the responsibility of it, share voiceover with him, and come up with some of the alternate universe gags ahead of time (including Tommy Wiseau-verse, silent universe, and 1408 reference universe). The one problem while writing it was that I hadn't realize just how many times we ended up saying, "Huh, this is weird. What's going on?"
According to Spoony, I was extra-gung ho to film this, even after a hard day of shooting at Molossia. I can't honestly recall if that's the case, but it wouldn't surprise me. I probably figured that if every day was going to be like the first day of filming (lots of outdoor shots in the hot sun, lots of wind and sand and dryness), we'd want to get it out of the way as soon as possible. Naturally, that did not end up happening.
The crowning moment of awesome for the video is, of course, the massive Insano fight at the end. Everybody wanted in on this and we just started throwing out Insano ideas left and right - finger beams, booklights, sonic screwdrivers, and lightning fingers aplenty. The best Insano was, of course, Dr. Bearsano, wherein Benzaie's stuffed bear Beary was actually piloting a zombie Benzaie. I also recall that I had Film Brain kicking lots of ass because at the time he was getting a lot of flack from commenters (primarily for his negative review of Equilibrium) and I felt he deserved the chance to be awesome.
This was, of course, the big conclusion to the Linksano sub-arc. It was always a silly little subplot before we got back to the serious stuff with Lord Vyce, so ending it on a massive battle of multiple Insanos, science, and just general goofiness was perfect. Also in this episode: confirmation that Dr. Linksano is from the "Party Mania" universe and is one of the Schlumper brothers.
