[@lifestudent2472]

after that line i can understand him wanting to keep his junk even more .

"I didn't want to stand around with my dork hanging out." We still miss ya, John :).

[@kevinsmith9502]

The Fishin Musician is still my favourite

[@BuriedFlame]

Still a classic line.

[@Johnlindsey289]

When I was 10 years old 31 years ago seeing this on Cinemax and that line made me laugh

“Me, walking around an entire movie naked? Who do they think I am a woman?” (Points to whoever gets the reference.)

[@captcorajus]

"You die, she dies... everybody dies." As a gamer/ D&D nerd, quotes from this movie were always at my table.

[@ultrahighgain412]

Sounds like Tomb Of Horrors.

[@JamesSelsing]

Being a gamer and a D&D nerd is nothing to brag about

[@florinivan6907]

'Guards, castrate him.' I like how casual he is about that order. Its like castration is so common it barely gets attention.

[@Christophiel]

A very common thing back in the US slavery days....

[@antcow1239]

Castration, a part of a complete breakfast!

When I was a kid the local $1 theater used to feature Heavy Metal every Saturday night. I could quote this whole movie with my eyes closed. Den is the best. John Candy was so perfect for this, every single one of his lines is hilarious.

The Great John Candy, Loved That Man! So Saddened He's Gone...

[@robertmiles1603]

I can't believe they edited Candy's voice. There could never be a need for that. The man was a master at work.

[@sean-ito_kel1336]

They didn’t edit it. He was able to control the tone in his voice. It’s called voice acting.

[@chardtomp]

I remember seeing this in the theater when I was in high school. Pretty wild stuff. Great soundtrack too!

[@georgebrown2175]

The first issue was awesome. Morbius was also excellent.

Me too but on acid. Ah ha 😁

[@kayknouse2855]

You're so lucky. That's awesome.

[@DocWolph]

"This guy is a shrimp. So I'd play it tough." Also, in a voice that would make Thanos jump: "Where is the girl?"

[@argonwheatbelly637]

And later... Queen -- The rising moon climaxes our love, Den. It is a sign. Den -- Yes. A sign. (As Dan, "I had no idea what she was talking about.")

[@Deibodese]

You really don’t see shows with this breakneck pace anymore. Dude went from being captured to realizing a machine gun was useless against an immortal empire in less than two minutes.

[@kar5431]

Look at the way Den is standing @:46 😂

[@nwriter777]

This movie is nuts

[@crazyman8472]

But in a good way! 😁

[@SiameseFatcat]

I like how Den shoots the Aard with like 6 -7 bullets but there’s only three bullet wounds showing up

[@coyotefever105]

You are now John Candy of Gor!!!

Den was a badass

[@bossshun9]

For me, this child hood movie was great.

[@benlarsen4602]

I like John Candy.

[@thestooge200]

interesting, I like the new sound design, but I don't think they needed to pitch down Candy's voice for Den. he did a pretty damn good heroic voice in the original mix.

[@kayknouse2855]

I was gonna say, I remembered his voice sounding different.

[@ericmason349]

The hero here is voiced by John Candy. He was perfect for this nerd turned hunk.

[@ethanshepherd4963]

Why?

[@ericmason349]

@@ethanshepherd4963 His voice was a bit high pitched. His voice could be that of the nerd in this movie/cartoon

[@ethanshepherd4963]

​@ericmason349 Well, I will give you that - John Candy was particularly known for his "everyman" roles, meaning he comes off as being a regular guy audiences can identify with

[@ToaAxiomMan]

I jokingly call Den, John Candy of Mars

[@avremirine8986]

In the Nostalgia Critic video on this movie, he nicknamed him John Candy of Gor.

[@civilwildman]

R.I.P., John Candy. You were one of a kind. A shame you didn't take better care of yourself. :(

[@TheMechanator]

Does anyone know what the orchestral music leading into this scene is? When the nerd kid get's transported to the alternate universe and becomes Den? French horns and trumpets. Sounds vaguely familiar.. I tried Shazam and other recognition software.

[@maureencora1]

I doubt it. Ard seems immortal if he can instantly heal from those bullet wounds and doesn’t seem to feel pain either.

by the way the voice of Den is John Candy

funny on why Den kinda hardly has 🎸 in his 🤘🏻 background

Crazy bro and enjoyable unless you can handle the trip

[@amberlopez7477]

This film could be done is real live action. But, it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars to make it. And it would have to be R rated. I don't think it would be profitable for a film studio. But, it would be great to watch.

"This dude looked like a shrimp so I tried to act tough to intimidate him" Truly power corrupts absolutely He was a feeble human but when he's given strength by being turned into a hunk he wants to bully people, that's so cringe ...Well I guess no one is truly selfless and pure, if they were they wouldn't be human they'd be saints

I don’t know, Ard seemed more corrupt than Den was. Even though he’s a shrimp he’s an immortal shrimp.
