Zurg thread
>>156118939Zurg is racist
>>156118970Nonsense! He's an equal-opportunity enslaver.
>>156118999Everyone is equal in the eyes of the HYPER DEATH RAY!
>you are now manually realizing that the deep lore of the space ranger series was that zurg was battling against the racist established space authority.
>>156118939The most Tim Curry role that didn't go to Tim Curry, I'm actually impressed.
>>156118939so what is zurg is he just one of those tiny bug people from his empire under the armor, is he a robot or what is he
>>156120835We know he's some sort of organic being because the blob gas affected him in that one episode.
>>156118939Oh, is that where Space King got the face grill design from?
>>156120851No, the design comes from space marines. The idea of lighting up when speaking comes from toy story 2 zurg
>>156120946amazing
>>156118939he was such a perfect blend of funny and actual threat
>>156121602Just utterly superb. Up there with BTAS Joker in that regard.
>>156122915something about "the joke villain you beat once a week thank to the heroes incredible technology and combat training would dogwalk regular people without either" is really entertaining to meit feels like it adds some scale to the show, like even a comedy villain who goes down in 2 shots would still be kind of high tier if the first shot was from a laser cannon
>>156118970>>156119470What's this referencing?
>>156122951It really establishes the sense of "this is why they need the top hero around to take this guy down."
>>156118939I just now realized his "mouth" is the same as the Psycho Warriors.
>>156122951Zurg isn’t really a joke villain they beat once a week in this show. He’s hammy but still very much played as a threat and no one but Buzz is capable of fighting him solo. The show had a pretty big rogue’s gallery so Zurg isn’t jobbing every episode too.
>>156118939Its almost Halloween and almost time for THE HYPER DEATH RAY!!!
>>156118970I already like him anon, you dont need to give me more reasons.
>>156123227Tom and Don liated Zurg's mouth as an aspect the took and put it on the psycho warriors. They did so because it added to the toyetic design of the PWs and it helped denote who is speaking without having to always have their helmets open.
>>156122915was my favorite episode
>>156123406>HYPER DEATH RAY sounds painful
>>156123265he is threatening, but he is a joke villain, though everyone in the show is a joke villain since its a comedy showbuzz and zerg willfully get into banter contests and when they arent trying to kill each other they argue like they are sitcom arch nemesis and willingly play into dick dastardly style death traps because they both sort-of know the parts they are supposed to playso when he actually fights people who are of a lower tech level than he is and he isnt playing around like he is with buzz, he just kicks their ass in 5 seconds
