*Dateline: Metropolis, 2050 A.D. The world has come under the leadership of a singular universal government, The New World Order, or NWO.The NWO polices the globe under strict, severe scrutiny of various cruel and unusual methods that conflict with the U.S. Constitution (Which is no longer in effect.) Our Narrator tells us a tale:*
II) Metropolis: 2050 A. D.:
Narrator: "As the world turns, and the citizens sleep,
The Suits gather in the dark to meet.
Someone’s reading your mail, tapping into your cell.
Your rights are gone, there’s nothing else.
And when you’ve realized you’re being analyzed,
They’ve already devised your demise.
New ways to kill us: A bomb that’s filled with germs
Should help us come to terms
With the chip they’ve implanted inside our minds.
On our ID’s and up our behinds.
And when you’ve realized you’re being analyzed,
They’ve already devised your demise.
A-BOMBS! H-BOMBS! NOBODY-IS-SAFE-BOMBS!”
*And when our Narrator says that, a humongous bomb dropped by Diabolicorps (A subsidiary of the NWO) hits Metropolis! The explosion is immense, leaving only bare skeletons and rubble. The movie announcer guy Don LaFontaine, is then heard:
“Who can stop this senseless destruction from happening? There is but one mortal man by the name of Ronald Weisenheimer!…”
Ronald Weisenheimer walks onto screen. A 6-foot-9, 350 pound mound of muscle with many weapons of mass destruction strapped to his torso. A shady NWO executive snipes him from a helicopter, leaving Ronald on the ground, bloody…
“He’s just been shot, so we’re gonna have to bring in the next best thing: METALLOBOT THE BARBARICON!”*
III) Entrance Of The Barbaricon:
*Don takes his royalty check, and goes home. We then see Metallobot The Barbaricon! A trash can looking robot with hundreds of cannons, rifles, lasers, RPG Launchers, etc attached to its cylindrical body. It creaks around for a bit before finding the super-secret Diabolicorps Laboratory. But before it makes its attack, it speaks to us, which oddly enough, sounds a lot like Brynen Sosa tastelessly noodling on a heavily distorted Guitar.*
Narrator: "And now Barbaricon must save the world.
Sit back as our story is unfurled.
Lasers and C-4 knocking at the door
Of the sinister Diabolicorps.”
IV) Meanwhile…:
*Meanwhile, at the sinister Diabolicorps Labs (Patent Pending), the same evil-doers who dropped that first bomb, are planning to drop another! But, before they can do that, they hear something off in the distance. The same horrible screech that could only be one thing: The Barbaricon! And it’s getting closer!
LOOK OUT!!! Metallobot unleashes a barrage of missiles, bullets, lasers etc. that completely eviscerates the entire staff of The Diabolicorps leaving them a giant pile of human glop. Unfortunately, since Metallobot was American made, there was still a lot of bugs in its main programming module. So, after its victory against Diabolicorps, “M-The-B” continues pummeling everything in its path! Children, Old Ladies, Small Puppies, it didn’t matter! Our Narrator, who looks a lot like Morgan Freeman, interjects:*
Margo Fraimen: "Diabolicorp is no more!
Metallobot stopped the terror!
Out of the smoking fire,
Comes Ronald Weisenheimer!”
*Ronald Weisenheimer, previously presumed dead, arises from the ashy rubble with his own wide array of weaponry ready to stop Metallobot.
“We have to stop ze Barbaricon! Eet’s shooting and keeling everyzing now! Come with me if you to live! Get to ze choppah!”*
V) Let’s Get Ready To Fumble!:
*Michael Buffer, who makes well over 200K a year with his cushy job, walks in with his $5000 suit and cups his microphone.
“In the blue corner, weighing in at 350 lbs, Mr. Ronald Weisenheimer! And in the red corner, weighing in at one million pounds, Metallobot The Barbaricon!… LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!”
Another royalty check. Metallobot and Ronald go at it! Destroying everything in their path with reckless abandon! They can’t quite seem to get a direct hit on one another, though. All they can seem to do, is scorch the infrastructure around them.
Unfortunately, the orchestra is scoring this epic battle scene, was playing so blindingly fast, they cause the movie reel in the projector to explode and catch fire. A pimply 16 year old employee extinguishes the fire and is forced to refund everyone in the theater their admission. People look pissed…*
