Who likes Invader Zim and Gir?! I do!
 
Yeah, you heard the title, now tell me. I loves Zim and Gir, I just started liking them and was wonderin' if you like em' too. They rock in my opinion.

Tell me your favorite quotes, characters and show your fave pictures. (relating to the show only, of course.) :)

Anyways, I love Zim's evil laugh.
"OOO-HAHAHAHAHAHA..."

Gir: "Duh! To make room for the muffin!"

Gir: "Oh.. my bees."

If you like Zim's laugh then you will wet yourself to hearing Laharl from Disgaea laugh.

Patrick Vykkers 07-17-2007 01:41 PM

Well, an approximate count of Zim fans..
1 septillion, 380 sextillion, 980 quintillion, 500 quadrillion, 381 trillion, 997 billion, 990 million, 210 thousand, 1 hundred, and 1.

looney-bin 07-17-2007 01:47 PM

Overrated. No wonder it got axed.

Alf Shall Rise 07-17-2007 01:53 PM

Well, I never really watched Invader Zim. I've heard many people like it. Is it really good?

Mac Sirloin 07-17-2007 02:05 PM

Its bastardized anime, sorry kids,but invader zim is trying to hard to be Japanese.
I miss shows like Clerks and Animaniacs hell, even Earethworm Jim was better then this crap.
Feckin' fence-jumpin' Japs...

Fortesque13 07-17-2007 04:31 PM

Whatever, but Invader Zim has it's own sick, twisted style of doing anything with crude humour just around everywhere!

Nate 07-17-2007 05:00 PM

I've never watched it. It could be a good show but I'm biased against it because my bitch of a former roommate's irritating dog was called Gir. I couldn't watch the show without horrible flashbacks.

Patrick Vykkers 07-17-2007 06:57 PM

Salad Fingers>>>googol^googol>>>>>>>>>>>Zim.

Mistress of Oddworld 07-17-2007 07:06 PM

Sounds ok... but I haven't ever seen it before. I have no idea why, but it reminds me of Earthworm Jim. Weird. And if it's wannabe jap stuff, I'm in! Unless it's american. Nuff said.

Mac Sirloin 07-17-2007 07:40 PM

It is american...I just said it was bastardized anime.
Thank god for flash animations, or the whole world would have enormous eyes and fights ful of talking right now.

Marvak 07-18-2007 05:21 AM

I saw someone mention salad fingers and I had to take a closer look. But then I saw this thread is about IZ... Well they don't show it on tv where I am, but from what I've seen it's awesome! And it definately does not resemble anime in any way. Believe me, I know anime. That is NOT anime.
Favorite quotes:
Gir: "WHYYYYYYYY WHYYY MY PIGGYYYY!!!!"

And as an added bonus:
"The feeling of rust against my salad fingers is almost orgasmic... heh"

Mac Sirloin 07-18-2007 07:22 AM

No, stop RIGHT there, invader zim was basically a shortlived attempt at cashing in on japanese styles in animation, NOT anime, but the animation methods.
Either way, its just stupid, and not only does it not make sense, but theres all those stupid people making fucking Gir GIFs.
ITs for children, stupid, stupid, hideous, vile children, and I hate it, to me it is literal televised excrement; the equivalent of being strapped to a chair for 36 hours in front of a television watching fat men shit themselves.

However, there is nothing wrong with liking crap, like being a fan of techno music, or corprofelia (or so I am told), invader zim has its perks, my probelms are the masses of stupid people, particularly girls who are always saying...
"OMG!!11invader zim is kewl!!!!i wacth it with my dawg!!! i luv gir!! EHHHHHHN." that was the target audience, problem is, when they used clever jokes on the show, all those stupid people started to stop watching it, and all us intellectuals avoided it from the start, so here we are.

IloveHammy! 07-18-2007 09:28 AM

I (for once) agree with Marvak. Invader Zim and Gir are both awesome and they ARE NOT Japanese. Even if they were, I would still love them. Japs are cool. Kastere is jus' trying to ruin this whole thread. Zim is a great show, Alf_Shall_Rise. You should watch it sometime. I'll send you a link to some episodes if you like through the msn. I know you would probably love it. :)

P.S.,

Do you like Zim too, Patrick? I can really tell.

Alf Shall Rise 07-18-2007 09:41 AM

Alrighty! But I can go on MSN at the moment today, sorry. So I'll try to go on tomorrow.

Hulaabeo 07-18-2007 11:25 AM

I like Gir

I like Gir

Rock on! *hugs fellow fan*

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/60024699/ Check it out, yo! My first picture of Gir. Cute, eh?

Mac Sirloin 07-18-2007 07:00 PM

Trying to ruin the thread she says... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

Uh...no? how about voicing my opinion, you idiotic re re.
Why are there so many stupid people on the internet? WHY? WHYYYYYY!?!?

Someone please close this tupid thread, my retardation handling levels are at critical mass!

EDIT: I just noticed the "put your favorite quotes" thing in 'Hammys' first post, well heres my favorite quote regarding the show:
Canned.

Asses to you, asiaholic.

sosha 07-18-2007 07:37 PM

you are very mean and i hope you know that you hurt her very bad thank for being so mean to my best friend i hope it comes back around.........i love zim

sosha 07-18-2007 07:38 PM

oh and by the way im talk to you kastere

ANN NEELY 07-18-2007 09:37 PM

3/4ths of my family are IZ fans, and I still enjoy watching old episodes (although all the stupid fangirls are getting rather irritating, not to mention Hot Topic's raperaperaping of it). There seems to be an odd idea going around that it's American-made anime. If you've ever read the director's cut of JTHM, you can see from his old pictures that Jhonen Vasquez's style has looked like that since he was just a kid. If you want American anime, watch Ben 10 or Teen Titans. You can't get anymore anime rip-off than those series.

Whaddya mean, for once? I don't recall you ever not agreeing with me, on the few occasions there was a debate... unless you count the religion thread? If so, I'm sorry...

What about Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go?

Strike Witch 07-18-2007 11:05 PM

"Super!"
"Robot!"
"Monkey!"
"Team!"
"Hyper!"
"Force!"
"GO!"

Abraham Lure 07-19-2007 07:13 AM

I like what I've seen of it so far (I've only seen one episode which is 'Zim Eats Waffles') and I found it pretty good. I found it pretty funny.

I don't really have a favourite quote. But I did like it because Dib (is that his name?) is trying to get the FIB to believe him about Zim being an alien.

Gir's pretty funny. I do like him.

And Kastere, I don't mean to sound rude. But I think everyone has a right to an opinion on what they like. 'Each to their own' I always say.

IloveHammy! 07-19-2007 07:26 AM

Thank you so very much Sosha. I love ya girl! I also thank you, Ray. *hugs*

And to Marvak, I say it's okay. :) *more hugs*

I like it when Zim is on his way to earth and Gir sings the "Doom song". Here's the vid. So cute! http://www.oddworldforums.net/showth...307#post313307

ANN NEELY has it right, I am being a bit more hostile, but that sums up my feelings of the show.
Fine, I should say that most people who watch IZ are stupid anime fans who should rot in hell.
Fortunately, not all of them are.

And Sosha? Learn to type...or spell...whatever.

All the friend I know that are fans of Zim don't even watch anime and they're mostly weirdos, but still not as weird as me.

Mac Sirloin 07-19-2007 06:08 PM

Every single person I know who watches Invader Zim is a Japanophile, I shit you not.

FUCK THE DOOM SONG! THAT IS THE MOST RETARDED THING TO HIT THE AIRWAVES SINCE RETARDED THINGS STARTED HITTING WAVES OF AIR.
BALSAQUE!

Fortesque13 07-19-2007 06:22 PM

Anime is usually more complex than just "I'll ruin the world!" and "No, you won't!". Invader Zim compared to real anime lacks a hell of a lot emotion. And is not afraid to show it.

I'm turning into an evil flaming narcissist who hates everybody and their opinions.

I think I might of seen Invader Zim once, its like everyone hates popular things nowadays.

Waaaaiiit....Marvak made me look funny in a quote again.....I praise her.

IloveHammy! 07-20-2007 07:21 AM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utyv4UAwDzw This video is even better! ZIM ROCKS!!!

Kastere is the cleverest most genius person on this forum.

Okay, That^ was low, but I couldn't help it.

Speaking of obscurities, who remembers Samurai Pizza Cats?

Fortesque13 07-20-2007 02:59 PM

Okay! That's about fucking enough. Every single time you post you just insult someone, or their opinions, or their thoughts. You, sir, should be the reason for starting a show "You've been whacked".

Mac Sirloin 07-20-2007 03:11 PM

Sorry All, I took that to far, I don't even hate Invader Zim as much as I convey, I actually think its original, and was (in part) a small inspiration for some comic art I did.

Sorry you lot, that was low, REALLY low, though I still hate over zealous fans, I apologize.

Thank you Fortesque, for making me stop being such a coward.

Its bastardized anime, sorry kids,but invader zim is trying to hard to be Japanese.
I miss shows like Clerks and Animaniacs hell, even Earthworm Jim was better then this crap.
Feckin' fence-jumpin' Japs...

BY THE GREAT WORM SPIRIT, WHOSE MIGHTY CROP DIGESTS THE SOULS OF EVIL, I WILL NOT LET YOU SPEAK ILL OF EARTH WORM JIM.
Tis awesome.

Yeah Clerks and Animaniacs are also cool but they aren't the only shows. And of course Invader Zim was trying to be like anime, so is Teen Titans and Avatar. Just as we first effected Japanese animation they are effecting ours.
What the hell do you have against anime anyways? Did it touch you when you were younger or something?

Mac Sirloin 07-22-2007 12:51 PM

No, I just know a hell of alot of people who like anime too much and are real Fucked in the head.

I used to like anime. a lot, but then this group of bastards came along and took everything fun out of liking it, now its considered individual not to like anime, which is fucked up.

Who was speaking ill of earthworm jim? I love that show! maybe I didn't get my message across properly, but its incredibly good.

Teen Titans, etc... all borrow from anime, but its direct anime feeds that bother me.
Like the 3 episode Ninja standoff with one punch thrown, that is an excellent example.

So, in short: Fuck Anime, Fuck anime fans, Fuck Anime Cliches, Fuck shows that use too much anime, Fuck all of those goddamn nerdy mingebags who spend all day reading graphic novels then Fap up a strom in some kind of tentacle rape scenario that all of them love so much.

Oh, and fuck Hentai, quite possibly the single worst thing to come from Anime ever.

EDIT: Fuck people who ruin book endings on the internet, or fuck YTMND whenever a new Harry Potter Book comes out.
