Wildfire Riders

There Will Be Brawl is a live action series done by some indie group out in somewhere in Eastern Canada. Featuring the beloved characters of the Super Smash Brothers series in a film-noir style, the Old Kingdom is down on its luck. Mafia dons Mewtwo, Ganondorf, Bowser, and Dedede wage a bloody turf war over the city, while the corrupt police (lead by Police Chief Link) maintain a vicious crackdown on... well, anyone and everything.

Our great plumbers have fallen to the wayside, once great heroes, now struggling just to get by on illicit power up trades.

Review: Exciting. When I was shown the first episode, I peed myself a little. The actors are decent (some are awesome) and it's an amusing concept. And really, it beats the hell out of American Idol and Survivor.
After that, I waited... and waited... and killed some more time, before episode 2 came out. Something to do with The Escapist picking up and sponsoring the budget caused a time delay. Episodes come out once a month or so, and I am fairly pleased so far.

Check it out. Especially you, Lans.

This is just about the coolest thing I've ever seen, so thank you for posting it.

This shit was fucking awesome.

Okay I watched.

I'm going to curl up in a corner and stare blissfully at the halogens wishing to capture the same sort of unmitigated win. And listen to the Godfather soundtrack.

After watching the whole thing today on a friend's recommendation, I had to go reload Episode 4 from the start just to watch Ganondorf's first appearance. Entirely awesome stuff, specifically the monologue about Hyrule. "Men lived and died by the sword - they, they protected or damned their families by the weight of their sack." Badass.

(I may have registered just to type out that line.)

Roobs, you've attained fanboy status. Welcome.

Hey, their lead writer thinks it's awesome.
