This episode was definately my favorite of season 8. I don't know what it was, but whenever this episode reruns, I stop whatever I am doing to watch. Best line: scary kid: "What is that, a man?" Servo: "Yep, believe it or not, yeah."

Let me reiterate once again about the non-effectiveness of your weapons against me


No no no no no no NO! The best line was:

Krankor: "I am Krankor"
Crow: "Crank Wh*re?" (Civil website....)

The best line was,"Look it's suppository man!"

That was "Invasion of the Neptune Men" not Prince of Space, but the best line of that episode involved "Ineffectual Chicken-Headed Bachelor"

"His power lies apparently in his ability to choose incompetent enemies."

"Good morning honey."
"They have absolutely no accumulated memory whatsoever."
"Luciiieeele!" "Lucielle." "Lucielle."

And of course, who could possibly forget, "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!"

"He's got some stones to mess wit' me!"
"The big goombah's gonna take da fuel!"
"That's a toy I wouldn't mind having, I like it VERY MUCH."

"Samuel Barber's Adagio for Young Japanese Children."
"It's so chilly, I brought my shawl."
"After that dog!!"
"When I was Japanese, it was a very good year..."
"GO, you bizarre little man!"
"Woody Allen asked me out."
"Terry got my gun dirty!"

And of course, the Japanophobe jokes ran deep.

"Back to your 3 by 5 apartments, men!"
"A giant roast chicken! It is brown on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside! It is not fermented, pickled, or raw, run!"
"Even in death, they're stacked on top of each other."
"They slammed the iron gate on me at cram school again today."

Wow, this movie is bad. The villains are so incompetent that the story should really only take five minutes. And seeing as how their weapons are useless on Prince of Space (WE GET THE POINT!), what's the big deal?

*The villain of the movie is clearly named "Phantom" from the PLANET Krankor, but Mike and the Bots, even in sketches, refer to him as just plain Krankor.


By Snick on Wednesday, May 04, 2005 - 3:15 pm:

And the odd thing is, Prince of Space goes out of his way to avoid being hit by the Krankor weapons.

One of the best riffs has to be when the prince Ultra-Brites the ugly, chunky, Ross Perot monster and it spastically lurches away:

TOM: *Joe Cocker* What wouldja say if I sang outta tune....

Forgot to mention the hilARious "Stevie Wonder" bit with the pilot in the fighter.

HO scale Japan.
It's like a yam with features.
Protect me, Japanese Fabian.
I am the lemon juicer of destruction.
I don't know if this is relevant, but Gamera is the friend of all children.

He's the Prince of maintaining his Space cushion.
Mother makes me wear this in space because it's cold.
