Title: Danger 5
Post by: Tale on October 24, 2011, 03:29:57 PM
What the..? A production company in Australia has wed WWII with 1960s TV. It's like Thunderbirds meets James Bond meets mental illness. There's only a trailer and I don't know what to make of it. Disaster? Awesome?

Edit: The website is definitely awesome http://www.sbs.com.au/danger5/

The Youtube was totally f'd up - only showing the occasional still while the audio played - and I still think this looked awesome.

And Japanese robot soldiers too, it looks like.

Please Adult Swim, make a deal to show this one posthaste.

Me and the few people I've shown it to have loved it.  Sadly not a great barometer for success.

Hitler in a giant robot, wielding a chainsaw which is also a flamethrower. :drill:

That should give you a pretty good idea if this series is for you.

Y'know, why the hell aren't there more awesomesauce pulpy TV shows out there?  This stuff wins every time.

I predict this will hit Adult Swim if it hasn't already (haven't watched AS in quite a while so if it's there...). This is right up that particular fucked up alley.

Woman:  You hit a girl!
Man:  I hit a nazi!

Great stuff.  The world needs more nonsense like this.
