Entry 25 [Video]

[usedsuitup]

[Our video opens today on one Barnabas Stinson. The Gear, being held by the loyal Marshall Treecko, shows Barney staring at a shelf in the pokemon mart. Staring at it, and looking rather confused.]

They still make VHS? God, you'd think with all the technology they have here, they'd have caught up to the twenty first century.

[However, he recovers quickly, and scoops up the camera]

Hey there Johto! How's it going?

You know, a lot of weird things have been going on lately. Especially with the whole pokemon powers epidemic that happened not too long ago. And that got me thinking that we are all under a lot of stress and that really, everyone needs a night off.

And so, ladies and gentlemen of Johto, I, Barney Stinson, propose a Bad Movie Night! A chance for everyone to sit back, relax, and rip apart the cinema of Johto for being just that horrible. I mean seriously, look at this.

[He holds up the video he found. A VHS affair of the classic film Ekans on a Plane.]

Who would pass up the chance to provide commentary on the pokemon version of this wonderful film? Staring, I might add, the pokemon version of Samuel L. Jackson.

No seriously, I'm pretty sure it's him.

This Wednesday, Johto, the twenty-second of August, I invite you to join me in this event. Because I can tell you right now, these movies are so bad? They'll be downright Legen - wait for it - Dary!

A bit of a ways, I think. You have to go up to Ecruteak and then on to Mahogany.

I'm working with the Joys to get some pokemon to fly people in for the event.

[papasmellslikethis]

Mmm.... don't think I'd be able to make it up there in time. But if there is a way to get flown in, [ that sounds kind of exciting, actually. He'll figure it out, even with his broken leg and arm. ] count me in, huh?

[usedsuitup]

Awesome, bro. I'll make sure to send someone your way.

I'm Barney, by the way. Barney Stinson.

[video]

[torrentofbits]

Sounds exciting.

[Give him a second! He's pulling out his map.] Hmm. As fast as Sleipy is, I don't think I could ride there in time.

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

...bro?

[Headtilt, and a curious stare. Some blinking.]

So, how bad are we talking here? On a scale of one to ten, levels of cheesy and all.

[video]

[usedsuperpower]

Yes! Johto vs The Ariados! _{[Preeetty much one of the oldest and most B horror/sci-fi movies ever.]}

[video]

[usedsuitup]

I'll add it to the list.

I think I saw that one on TV actually.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

Yeah, you know, bro, brah, broski, buddy, pal? I don't know your name, dude.

Oh, and pretty cheesy. Like, between six and eight. I'll see if I can find a few tens.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

I'm working to get some pokemon to fly people in for the day.

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

Oh! Oh, uhh...Demyx. I'm Demyx. Sorry, my bad.

Oh man, I can't miss this then. If it's that bad, it'll be awesome!

[papasmellslikethis]

I'm Charles Beams. Always good to meet a fan of Bad Movies.

[usedsuitup]

Same here.

Got any favorites I can try and find the pokemon version of? There aren't a lot of movies without them, if any.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

Nice to meet you, Demyx. I'm Barney and I'm looking forward to seeing you there.

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

Likewise, Barney! So, indoor affair, outdoor? Bring your own whatevers?

Oh, yeah. Pokemon welcome to chill outside pokeballs during the shindig?

[video]

[usedsuitup]

Ideally I'd like to have it outside, but that depends on the weather. I'll make it work.

I'll say yes, as long as they're not too big and behave themselves. The last thing I need is a Gyrados deciding to recreate Godzilla or something.

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

...Godzilla?

[What are non-Disney films. No really. What are they?]

Er, that won't be a problem I think, I've only got little dudes. Biggest one I've got is an Onix and he's...he's gunna want to stay in the pokeball. We're talkin' a Gallade, a Zorua that'll pretty much just spend the whole time doppleganging me, and a Reuniclus. No bigger than a human, an' all pretty chill.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

You know. Giant lizard? Took out Tokyo? And Los Angeles? Or was New York?

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

Never heard of it, actually... I guess that's because I'm not from your world either? Anything's possible here, y'know?

Sometimes including the weirdest possible possibles an' all.

[punchandkiss]

I guess I could.

Just to see what it is, anyway.

[usedsuitup]

Awesome!

Can't wait to see you there.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

Oh, right. That little detail. Honestly, I don't know how you guys survive without this stuff.

[video]

[melodicnocturne]

I guess we manage with a world full of singing mermaids.

[This is exactly what you think it is, Barney. His amused tone at how ridiculous that sounds, and is also adds to the dead-on reference.]

Well, other stuff too. Hard to top singing fish, though.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

[I hope you don't mind some breakage of the fourth wall.]

You lived in the Little Mermaid?

[video]

[torrentofbits]

I'm in Violet, if you can get a Pokémon sent here.

[Oh yeah...] I'm Loki, by the way.

[video]

[usedsuitup]

I think there's a couple of people in Violet who want to come, so consider it done.

Nice to meet you, Loki. Name's Barney.
