- It's got an ugly, pot-head chicken.
- Penguins invented surfing!
- It's a fucking mockumentary.
- At least two people with funny-looking names do voices.
- Napolean Dynamite is the fucking chicken.
- Two professional surfers play themselves.
- Surfing rules.
- They less ugly than in teh Happy Feets.
- The golden name of Sony is attached to this picture.
- Nobody's tired of penguins yet!1112jklvg

I want a movie with a rat in Platemail.
-
They aren't rats. It's likely Renard the fox (right) and Isegrim the wolf. Until I read the platemail thing, I thought you were talking about Ratatouille. And here I thought Pixar couldn't come up with something I want to see less than Cars. The rat chef could at least be a stoner.
-
I thought he was talking about Ratatouille too.
I would see surfs up before Ratatouille but neither one really makes me want to see it that bad.
If they made a full feature version of Adventure Time I'd definitely go see that.
-
A stoner rat would've been awesome. He'd be putting shrooms and LCD in his food and would be declared the greatest chef evers!11w2..

Lookout....Bandwagon is coming this way! Grab your Penguin and jump on! YEEHAW!!!!!!
-
I wonder how penguin meat tastes....
-
I liked penguins before they were cool!!1212lklg; I even had that Care Bear cousins penguin-thingy, Cozy Heart Fucking Penguin.
-

Ask a peruvian...
-
Cozy Heart Fucking Penguin Chalupa!
-
I'll watch it.
Are there worse things in this world?
Perhaps!
-
Not "perhaps". Definetely. One of them is Ratatouille and its lack of pot and LSD.
-
Huh.
Pixar usually manages to entice me, but you're right, this one has me scratching mah balls my head.
-
Did you see Cars?
-
I didn't mind it.
Am I the only one who can't see Hemorrhoid's sig (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y114/WickedEm/Survive-Wright-Sig.gif)?
It tries like heck but never quite makes it.
-
What do you mean? Is it an x or something? I see it fine.
-
Nah, it just loads and loads and loads until it finally gives up.
El Computador must be blocking photobucket for some reason.
-
Maybe it just can't stand "Surf's Up"'s greatness.
-
On the contrary, El Computador revels in said greatness.

Is your computer a Spanish matador?
-
Pffft. He's a luchador, thank you very much.
-
Then you should've named him Comp-o Fuerte.
-
I saw Pirates 3 Saturday, and those were the two most forgettable previews of the whole shebang. What the heck is it about damn penguins lately? This is, what, the third penguin movie in the past year? And I think Pixar's just tapped out for ideas. Cars wasn't that bad, but they need to make with the Incredibles 2 already.
-
This whole thing with penguins is just bad timing on everyone's part. I know it seems to lack believability, but I remember hearing something that went along the lines of whatever idea you or I may come up with, there are people all over the place with the same idea. Happy Feet began production before March of the Penguins. Then there's the Madagascar penguins. And these surfing penguins. They've all had to have been in the pipeline for years. I have yet to meet an animated penguin I've liked. It's all crap in my opinion. Shia LaBeouf and a bunch of CG animators get another line to add to their resumes.
-
Part of the ongoing attempts to bring attention to the "plight" of animals living near the poles due to global warming.
-
That shit's already in motion though. That's like trying to prevent a murder when the victim's already been shot in the face.

Some might have been greenlighted or even created to compete with other studios "Penquin" films. Although I don't think there can be any doubt that Happy Feet was greenlighted before March of the Penquins. March just made it to theaters first because it wasn't animated.
-
Yeah, that's very true. But I also think penguins were due. I don't think Madagascar added penguins just because of Happy Feet. Tail-coated riding probably greenlit "Surf's Up" though.
Semi-related...

Fuck that stinker "the Pebble and Penguin".
-
Proably right about Madagascar. The Penguins weren't the main focus like the the rest of these films, so that seems logical. Although their spin off toon mentioned in the article you linked might be trying to ride that wave.
-
I liked penguins before they were cool!!
Yeah, now people go twice as apeshit when I wear my 91-92 Lemieux jersey.
::)

Not even Chilly Willy?

Isn't "le mieux" that what the girl cat in the Pepe Le Pew cartoons used to say all the time?
-
Yes she did, and she shouldn't have been surprised at what would follow her; going about proclaiming herself "the best." Little tart.
-
La peu chienne.
-
Penelope Pussycat.
-
Guess what?
Surf's Up was GRRRRRREAT!!!
Not that there was ever any doubt.
-
I bet the pothead chicken was the best part. You should change your user name to "Chicken Joe". Fuck Rammstein.
-
Oh man, the chicken is pretty great. But he isn't my favorite. No, that high honor would have to go to Zeke. Zeke, or Tank. I'm leaning towards Zeke. Jeff Bridges is awesome. Although Diedrich Bader certainly isn't too shabby.

No more Cactus Joe? I can't kick a chicken! :mad:
-
But you can choke one.
:raiseeyebrow:
-
You can kick one. There aren't any laws against it.
-
That would be cruel, and Bernie is a renowned zoophile.
-
Does that mean Bernie's a chicken fucker? Or do we say chicken lover around here?
-
That would be cruel, and Bernie is a renowned zoophile.
It wouldn't be cruel, it'd be funny and Bernie has a renowned sense of humor.
-
Hmm.
Can't argue with that.
By all means, kick away.
-
I read the title of this thread as "Smurf's Up". Upon reading the posts in it, I'm quite disappointed.
Or maybe relieved. Yes, let's go with relieved.
-
Go smurf yourself.
-
So you meant Smurf's Up as in one smurf is up? Where is he up to? I say 'he' because the chances of it being a chick are pretty slim.
-
By all means, kick away.
Not today! WOOHOO!!!
*gives Chicken Joe a big ol' smooch*
Eddie just got a fantastic new job with a raise AND it's only 2 miles from home! He gets home first; HE scoops the cat boxes! ;D
I did kick a chicken once when I was 13. My grandfather had a mean rooster named Oscar who was horribly jealous and would chase me all over the yard, trying to spur me. He cornered me the day my mom & I were going back to Houston, but this time I wasn't barefooted with shorts on. I went past him, felt him attack the back of my legs, turned around and kicked him right under the beak with my gimormous white Elton John-worthy platform shoe. Not very hard, but he kind of staggered, then turned around and left me alone. :razz:
And no jokes about fearing my grandfather's cock, please. That's been done.
-
What sort of job? Ima curious.
-
IT systems engineer. I laugh when anyone talks about hurricane evacuation now because as I found out during Rita, IT people get to leave the deserted premises just before the doors get plywooded.

No, no...with that guy in it, it's gotta be "fuckin' A!"
