Complaints Department

It has been pointed out to me here on LJ and elsewhere that Julie Andrews DID NOT provide the voice of the Fairy Godmother in any of the Shrek movies; she did the voice for Fionna's mother, The Queen.

TWO THINGS IN MY DEFENSE: The image that I grabbed from The Internet was described as "Julie Andrews Fairy Godmother Character From Shrek", and c'mon... a fight between Mary Poppins and The Queen Who Maried The Frog Prince would have been QUITE boring.

The battle shall remain as posted :)

100 THINGS CHALLENGE (006 - "Robot")

Vs.



Our first contestant in this Robot Battle, coming from the far reaches of Google Image Search term "Robot"... The unsung "Hero Of The Rebellion"... C3PO's "Life Partner"... the only character to be in all 6 Star Wars movies who lived to tell about it... ARTOO-DEETOO!

And in THIS corner, hailing from the Yahoo Image Search for search term "Robot"... Pixar's boxy little hero... the automaton with a conservationist message... WALL-E!!!

THE SCENARIO: A long time ago, in a Galaxy far, far away... THE JAWAS finally bought a space freighter so they could expand their salvage operation on a Universal level! Eventually they stumble across the abandoned planet Earth which is like stumbling across a giant garage sale where everything is FREE, and they start harvesting junk by scooping up a square mile at a time and transporting it to their cargo hold for sorting (so much easier than roaming the Tattooine desert hoping to find stray Droids). In one of those giant scoops, they happen to scoop up the last fully functional WALL-E unit on the entire planet. They grab him up and stick him in the Droid Containment Cell where he meets... R2-D2.

Excited to see another fully functional height-challenged Droid, R2 and WALL-E immediately attempt to interface directly through a USB connection. WALL-E insists that R2 install iTunes to continue, R2 declines. After a few dozen Quicktime errors and Spyware alerts, R2 finds himself moving and thinking very slowly. He tries deleting the iTunes install file but access is denied because for some reason the iTunes installer doesn't think that R2 has Administrator Privileges. R2 is forced to reboot and when he does... BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH.

WINNER: WALL-E
