I… uh… well. This new footage of the G.I. Joe Renegades cartoon is certainly… uh… two minutes long. I guess it helps that all the Joes very politely attacked the mutant monster-thing one at a time, so that everybody had a chance. And I guess it helps that they were fighting a regenerated monster mutant-thing instead of, you know, Cobra soldiers or something. But it is two minutes long. There’s nothing I can say that will take that away from it. (Via ToyNewsI)
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
