I just finished watching Heavy Metal for the first time.

Despite being a supposed animation nerd I had never seen it until now? I only realized that when I happened upon the South Park cat urine episode and realized it was all a reference to Heavy Metal even though I hadn't, um, actually ever seen it.
The first time I saw it was my 1st year of university. I'm not sure why, but I was mildly offended. Probably because I was high off my ass and it was a FIRST DATE in the small school independent theater hall where they showed mostly second run movies, and thinking, "This is totally a GUY movie. OMG, he totally is thinking he wants to get laid, tonight. Ew!"
Yeah, totally, it's clearly like a male adolescent fantasy thing.
I appreciate it in a dirty pleasure sort of way, but I could ever imagine subjecting someone to it on a date.
"Of course you would. Earth women who experience sexual ecstasy with mechanical assistance always tend to feel guilty."
Yes. You definitely win.
I love Heavy Metal as well, despite its inherent cheesiness
ALSO WATCH WIZARDS
I think I saw that on late-night cable for the first time back when I was 10.
Why do you think I started a thread called "It's your one ticket to midnight! Call it! Heavy metal!"
The best part is when the kid transforms, looks down at his junk and says "My dork!"

It was awesome.
I'm now going to watch it a second time now. Fucked up.
