Oh dear, Miss Elizabitch might not have been too far off with her toaster-marrying comment. ;0

Remember that South Park episode? Man lemme reach all the way back in the memory banks to two whole days ago.

Its tough to stay focused cause I've been cheesin my balls off.

GIANT cartoon breasts.

I totally married my vibrator...but we got divorced when I found a cute tomboy who could do it for me.

Ladies just be careful I hear they're bad for your teeth.

where. can i. watch. this whole. movie?

Hey, at least it's a family-friendly love scene, unlike what happened to poor Julie Christie in "The Demon Seed."

This is so cool. It just cured the depression I was getting because it's Friday and because I am not going to get laid this weekend....

Yeah, where can I watch this movie?

@fluffy_alligator: It's out on DVD. Keep an ear out for John Candy's voice and Devo's cameo.

Ahhh, the days when unshaven was considered sexy, before the powers that be decided all men want to fuck children.

This is beyond awesome. I must add this movie to my collection.

If you are a netflix member, the movie is one of their "Watch Instantly" films. Yeah internet!

Oh christ. Heavy Metal is such a great completely random movie (Heavy Metal 2000 is sort of very disappointing compared to it). I remember watching this for the first time on VHS, I was digging around my brothers room when I was like thirteen and found it.

Now I really need to find the DVD so I can watch this again, I know I have it somewhere around here.

Although labelling this post 'sci-fi for women' isn't exactly... well honestly if you've pick up a copy of Heavy Metal magazine and then make the connection between that and this movie. Yeah.

Still this movie kicks ass, and this is why:

+ Watch video

I'll never marry mine, but I will keep it as a mistress. It's getting a much-needed vacation because a new boy situation may make me forget about it for a while (fingers crossed).

For some reason I'm also reminded of THAT ONE scene in "Tetsuo the Iron Man."

Oh yeah, and I just wanted to add,"drugs!!" Teeehee.

Having been both 18 and a fanboy to boot when "Heavy Metal" first came out, I have very fond memories of smoking, drinking and hanging out with my friends at many midnight showings thinking "This sooo rocks".

While watching this episode of South Park, I could not help setting there with a big "cheese" on my face. (pun intended)

Quite nostalgic.

My, how time flies!

In speaking of vintage "adult" cartoons, I never really got into Ralph Bakshi's movies (Fritz the Cat, Wizards, Lords of the Rings etc). I admire a few of the chances he took but I usually see too many stylistic flaws and Me Decade kitsch in his work. Rotoscoping is often wack anyway.

How the hell did my neighbors let me watch this when I was six?

For astonishingly graphic sex-with-robot read Evolution's Darling by Scott Westerfeld. That's all i remember about the book.

the robot's voice - is that eugene levy or john candy?

those boobs are close to frankenboobs or something. jiminy h. christmas.

it looks like someone started to put this up on youtube yesterday. i don't know if they quit or if it's just taking them some time, but they got the first 18 min. up in 2 parts. here ya go if any of you want to keep a watch on it: [www.youtube.com]

A few years ago, my sister had a chance to have a converation with Ivan Reitman, who was one of the producers of this film and she asked him if he would even consider making more "adult themed" animation. His response was that he thought that "Space Jam" the kind of animated film that would appeal to adults and not stuff like "Heavy Metal"! What?!?..."Space Jam"?...really???

@rednrowdy: That's John Candy!
Eugene Levy and other SCTV cast members were also in the film.

too bad my vibrator's a gentile. my parents would never approve of our wedding

O Slut Machine
Dorkulant maneater
I submit to your will.

Put up some clips from Wizards and I'll be yours forever.

This trumps the DVD release of the Smurfs. Nasty old Gargamel should have found him some Frankenboobs to love, and then he would have left the little blue people alone.

@StratfordX: Indeed, an epic, Tolkenesque battle of good vs. evil that ends when a wizard whips out a Luger.

That bra was not supportive. AT ALL

This it totally off-topic, but I wanted to wish all you dykes and bitches and all a great weekend - I haven't been able to hang out here at all today - but that Hasselback thing was the SHIZ-NIT!

Uncle Buck indeed.

This reminds me of...
Scandy- Crush on a Robot
From the "13 ways to masturbate" Album

Here it is with some neo genesis evangelion amv

+ Watch video

Is John Candy the voice of the robot?! I think he is! Awww, Uncle Buck!

Those boobs are crrrrazy! I see where the idea of fake inflated-looking boobs comes from. And, those nipples kinda look like plungers. Yummy.

Hooray for un-realistically (is that a word?) proportioned cartoon women! Just need to show some Aeon Flux now.

She reminds me of the two girls from Cool World. She's naughty like Holly, but still innocent like the other one. Especially with the whole mix wedding part (Machine/Human vs Noid/Toon)

HEAVY METAL trailer on IMDb

[www.imdb.com]

check it out!

OMG, this was totes on our "Stupid Movie Night" rental list in college. Getting wasted and laughing @ Heavy Metal. Most awful thing about this enjoyably bad movie? Soundtrack. (Seriously? In the distant future we'll be listening to Journey?) Good times.

i love this movie

@Trashtastic Is Disillusioned: LOL, my thoughts exactly. But cartoon Franken-boobs don't need support, they only require 'minimal/fall-off-at-the-first-hint-of-sex' coverage!

And I'm with Kaitydid, I must see this movie.

@cde: Dude! That is awesome. It's been ages since I saw Neon Genesis Evangelion. Thanks for that!

The two things I remember about watching Heavy Metal on a probably 20th generation VHS tape in high school are my roommate (boarding school, long story) making fun of the girls with ginormous boobs and Dorothy Hamill wedge haircuts and changing the words of the Journey song to "And now I come to you, with open legs..."

Oh and being worried we'd get busted for watching the movie. Not so much for the content of the movie as for the rule that we weren't supposed to have TVs in our rooms (boarding school, long story).

I haven't seen Heavy Metal, I don't really have any comment on that. I just wanted to pipe up that I found the title of this post a little unnecessary. There are plenty of us out there who enjoy the sci-fi you inexplicably imply is "for men". Hell, have you looked at the staff listing for your sister blog io9?

@starbuck1011: but star, women are no good at science - don't y'know? io9? meh.

unrelated, sorry to hijack - woman on larry king just said ve-jay-jay - on cnn! the men were stunned.

Evangelion is so friggin' twisted!
I love it, and the Rebuild actually rocks!
I'm showing Eva to my mom, and she can't wait to see what happens next. (Fourth Child incident w/ the Dummy Plug)
Those who have watched it know what I mean, the virgins will just have to find out for themselves.
Heavy Metal 1 was great, 2 just sucked. For true weirdsville animation, you have to find Heavy Traffic by Ralph Bakshi.
Whoa. Enjoy.

@Vastarien202: I'm showing Eva to my mom

Hahaha! My mom is the coolest lady in the world, but as much as I love both her and Evangelion, I REAAAAALLY have my doubts that she would have the stomach for it. She'd probably get like five minutes in and be like, "Good heavens, what's wrong with that girl?" And then she'd turn it off because she couldn't bear it anymore.

It's such a mindfuck, y'know? It's crazy awesome that your mom likes it, though.

I was far too young when I first saw this movie. Really.

I like that he says he's proficient at sex, and she says it's the best she's ever had. Maybe a commentary on human men in the sack?

@Trashtastic Is Disillusioned: Snerk. Good to know that I'm not the only one who thought the same thing.

I saw 'Heavy Metal' at the drive-in when I was five or so. It was on the screen next to whatever we were watching, one of the 'Star Wars' movies I think.
I remember being very, very frightened but also inexplicably intrigued.

Damn hippie parents...

i lost my virginity to my vibrator, so maybe I should marry it.

@Trashtastic Is Disillusioned: And your point would be? Welcome to men's fantasy world, where breasts are large and also apparently lighter than air.

@cde: Cool World was an excellent flick. A young Brad Pitt and a very well-drawn Kim Basinger.

@ccchild: Fuck what's "considered" sexy. I'll shave when I goddamn feel like it. To quote another commenter from an earlier post (I think), you don't like it, find another pussy to lick.

haha, you guys should have posted a video of taarna.

And the idea behind the contemporary shaving of pussy hair is...? So women look like prepubescent girls? Bring back the natural women! Even if it does cover up some of the junk, that only heightens the mystery.

I saw this very stoned at midnight in our suburban mall theater. I can't remember any of it and that's probably a good thing.

the rah rah yayyy bush shit is touching and all, but i prefer my bush shorn or nonexistant, thank you very much.

Its obvious the title is a joke.

A feminist site is hardly going to suggest that sci-fi isn't for women unless it involves talk of marriage.

What's with all the domain changing here? I came from IO9, and wind up at Jezebel.

No problem with the site, but the fact that I keep having to log back in every time I click on a friggin' post.

@darcymcgee: All cross posts are clearly marked. That io9 one, the first two words, in CAPS were FROM JEZEBEL.COM:
