    Transformers because of the song and it can't be easy for a robot to don a convincing disguise

    The Earthworm Jim song wasn't too shabby either though to be fair. Transformers are infinitely cooler though so they get my vote.

    Transformers, while I’d have been a fan of Jim he just can’t compete. Transformers was great.

    The tide is turning…

    It's 5-2 to the Trans (can we say that?)

    Earthworm Jim gets my vote. Never watched Transformers.

    Transformers, they’re robots in disguise,
    Auto bots are do de do,
    Dum do de do, dum do de do, the decepticons...

    Amazing stuff.

    Bosco was ****ing terrifying. That was an evil looking puppet and the voice of a literal demon.

    Let's see how normal your voice would be with a hand rooted up your hole non stop.

    I don’t know; was the only thing more tedious than watching it listening to fans of it harp on about it ad nauseum?

    What were you thinking kicking this off on a Friday night, when everyone’s out numbing their pain instead of on a Monday afternoon when the effect is starting to wear off and they need a distraction?

    Transformers all day !

    Loved soundwave

    That's a tough first round. I want both to win. Jim was amazing, excellent theme song and Jim Carey like persona, and I have fond memories of the game on the SNES which gives Jim an extra edge. But, Transformers! Loved them. Even somewhat liked the new films, especially the latest one with the battle on Cybertron. Give us a full film of that, the humans ruin the films!

    So yeah, that's a vote for Transformers!

    Had a quick Google and found my favourite toy transformer from back in the day. Anyone else have the Skyjack G2 Transformer? They changed his look for the second release, but I loved playing with this. Along with stealing the brothers Spacecase and Hooligan! Great times!

    You didn’t ask what’s a deeeb. Telling.

    Dweebs, not deeeb ... :pac:

    Edit: Googled that, hadn't heard of it before!

    Not a great start to this shambles.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Transformers win the opening match. Perhaps a friday night kick off was ill-advised! We'll call that the curtain raiser and get down to proper business tomorrow when people are lazy and hungover and more unhinged.

    Would you not call it until Monday when people are bored at work and pretending to look busy?
