Mighty Max Episode 02: The Brain Suckers Cometh Part 2 of 2

[Adnachiel2]

Max: "You know, I had a dream I'd go like this...Only I was wearing a dress.." Wow. I guess even Max has a cross dressing fantasy.

[networkoperationscen]

These alien hosts, are simulated off the movie "Aliens" the design is anyway.

[Passions55]

OMG a floppy disc!

[BossHossV8Cycles]

I distinctly remember thinking, "whaaaaaaaaaat?!" at Max' speech at the end of this episode while I was a kid.

[funkjaw]

Norman is the best.. and is also the basis for all the characters I make in RPGs.

[Baconq]

l;ike aliens would have pugins on there

[Elarithon1]

LOL, right after posting I continued watching and Max said exactly my point.

[Elarithon1]

No, no dude. No one likes you because you talk too much. My school is full of nerds. None of them talk this much. None of them dress like you. Almost none of them have speech problems. All of them have friends. WTF is wrong with you?

[finnishnin]

That game Ernie was playing doesn't look like Pokemon, Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros, or Megaman

[SgtKaneGunlock]

oh hindsight is a crawl bitch I have a feeling if this ever gets revamped Erinie is going to be less of a dork since Nerds have pretty much taken over the planet

[kelseyfittzy]

For a moment there, I thought they were just gonna leave Ernie there with the canibals, lol.

[Yin157]

@PxAxZxDrums That guy who played the voice of the nerd would be Charlie Adler

[KaurkaKaymiril]

"I am a NERD, not a DWEEB!" Ah, the 90s.

[arete89]

at 7:26 Norman says SHIT!

[HalaHadean23]

Ernie sounds like a fucking drag queen! KILL HIM WITH FIRE!!

[MrHongKongBuffet]

@HalaHadean23

Agreed. I'm glad that he didn't become a regular character. Given the fact that Mighty Max often had characters actually dying, I like to think that Ernie became an Entree.

[finnishnin]

@HalaHadean23 Especially when he says "But I am your PARTNER!!!!!" It sound so gay!!!!!!!

[TsucasaKsumi]

Agreed. And why not just hard-wire the death machine? I mean really?

I do miss the 90's

[OptimusProwlGirl]

WHO PUT A PLUG BY A DEATH BOUND CONVEYER BELT?

[BTIsaac]

What really disturbs me is that all computers are compatible for some reason.

[DesertPunkStudios]

Remember way back when... when the stereotype of nerd prevailed and everyone believed that this was how all tech savvy kids were? Weird looking back.

[whitewolfaaaa]

halo copied this show max is the real masterchief

[Zenrikku77]

If i was Max i would have pull out a gun and blow Ernie away on the ship

[Blamee33]

@kingofalamo925 It was the trend to do so. Lol.

[emp0rizzle]

UGAH BOOGAH!

[Dragonstorm787]

So....the aliens attempt to stop Max from stealing their mother ship is to blow it up with their comrades and brain supply inside of it?

[Vash1224]

I would have to say, A sophisticated ass space ship's conveyor belt is powered by a single plug that is easily accessible = Fail

[addersdaotter]

@Vash1224 I laughed too hard at that. I was about to make a comment before looking down here. Glad I checked beforehand! Ever find it funny watching these shows when you get older and realizing all the little flaws in em? :P

[Hexon666]

I Love Max's Knowledge of alien tech. LOL and the first episode when he drives that...thing LOL

[ChrisAAMO]

10:21 lol wow.

I thought the educational facts were all really basic stuff.

[Hexon666]

@ChrisAAMO LMAO WOW DUDE WHAT THE HELL!

[ChrisAAMO]

@Hexon666 Yeah, I thought it was gonna be like "programming computer games can be a hobby or a career!" but instead he dropped like, quantum space mechanics on an audience of mostly kids, haha.

[flipkid2006]

Between 8:20 and 8:40, one of the few times a nerd gets to call himself a "badass" lol

[flipkid2006]

"I may be a nerd, but i am not a dweeb!" That had to have been the best line Ernie has said yet.

[WillT23]

Man, Ernie is simultaneously the greatest and the most annoying character of all time.

[WillT23]

Seee what happens when you don't look bothh wayys.

[Kalen1617]

The nerd got the voice of Cow and the Red Guy and I R Baboon:)

[babyshaker90210]

I somehow remember this episode, and it's been like 14-15 years

[Darko266]

Mighty Max is the best cartoon series ever. And watching it now, ten years later, still feels good, even better. And it's funny to laugh at the little things that you would have never noticed as a child: Aliens that use floppy disks and wall sockets, Max that flies a mothership by using just two sliders....awesome!

[charmedcasanova]

I really like the end

[bboyhoyack]

whos voice is that of ernie, the geek? ITS GENIUS!!!!!

[Marmalade000000]

I feel for Ernie

[Bluddydaath666]

NeRd Stew!!

[welldriller2]

sounds like chicken from cow and chicken ernie does anyway

[Ethix127]

ernie has cool weird speech!@LOL

[avid9900]

BTW, im just giving constructive feedback... I love Mighty Max! Thats my name! Independence Day did rip this episode off...big time

[avid9900]

How convenient, a truck shows up at the exact time to crush an alien....creative thinking at its best!

[RokuroCarisu]

@avid9900 To say it in Vergil's words: "It's destiny!" ^^°

[leakesonasucs]

ernie voice sounds famaliar i think.

[mrkingofkings]

@leakesonasucs It's Charlie Adler, who played Satan, Cow, Chicken from "Cow & Chicken," Snively from "Sonic SatAM," Ickis from "Aaahh!! Real Monsters," T-Bone from "Swat KATS," Candy Caramella from "Space Goofs," Ed Bighead from "Rocco's Modern Life," and others.

[6G3rm4N9]

@mrkingofkings holy shit that was like a nostalgia gauntlet thanks for posting that i was wonderin why that voice seemed so familiar

[HyperSonicXtreme]

7:20

Just like the intro

[KairuHakubi]

they have a lot of episodes where they have to sort of move where they are into a portal's path, and it's funny how it never leaves a hole in the wall or anything.. despite matter moving into it.. sort of..

[hunnykun101]

Ernie sounds like he has a deep cold

[BluntBoy007]

PLEASE tell me if there is any DVDs of this show.

[Dan261178]

Sadly no official ones yet,although I keep hoping too.

[Mark35950]

I think there might be.

[Mark35950]

I think there might be, if you're still interested.

[BluntBoy007]

did u transfer VHS to DVD?

[Mark35950]

No. I found a place online. Its called: I Miss My TV Show.

[BluntBoy007]

dude....ur awesome, thanks for the heads up...

[Mark35950]

Glad i could help.

[G35DRIVER77]

Maxs lab partner is so gay! Anyone notice a lot of homosexual innuendos?

[Zanco]

funny how the alien technology looks so much similar to Earth's

[Ashkhael]

dude...

Independence Day is based on Mighty Max?

I always knew there's something fundamentally wrong with the universe...

Or Hollywood for that matter...

[PTSnake]

also, the aliens look like Elites from Halo...

[madgrav]

I wanna Norman...

'bout to get his brain TORN from his skull. "I welcome pain."

HARDCORE to the ubermax

[alxdr777]

someone shut up ernie...

[ZombieJackNZ]

I just realized this plot was adapted for the movie Independence Day complete with Jeff Goldblum as Ernie and Will Smith as Mighty Max

[ToasterPig]

Great now I just picture a Mighty Max life action movie starring Will Smith.

Just imagine him going around with the red cap opening portals XD

[Tien1185]

sound likes a loose brainiac!!!!!!!!!!

[cornpuff90]

lol knew that was coming.

[cornpuff90]

look at 6:08. normans package is huuuuge! lol (no homo)

[spacexploder]

a plug outlet? nice.

[Phoenixdragonfang]

I may be a nerd, but i am not a dweeb.

[spacexploder]

you mean optimus prime?

[lifeinsepia]

1:56, he sounds soooo gay. "There's is something in the fridge"

[staubinator]

This is the plot for Independence Day

[AutumnEclipseX]

When I was younger, I never noticed all the cheesy puns in this show. lmao.

[THEGLOVED1]

@AutumnEclipseX  me2.

[EDDIEinWAR]

MAX; no..its my grandma roflmao xD

[jackle9]

This show came out Sept. 1st, 1993 and aired through November 25th, 1994. Only two seasons that included 40 episodes. Wish they would have made more and even a movie with real people in it with the final show down with Skull Master.

[captainmullet]

This is one of the few episodes of this show I actually remember. It scared the crap out of me as a kid.

[DEATHBYFLYINGCDS]

The just as he is about to have his brain ripped out the nerd conveniently finds an plug that stops the conveyor and claw as well as opening their restraints. What kind of stupid alien uses such a feeble setup and then puts the method for deactivating it right next to where the victims are.

[DarkBunnyLord]

The kind put in an 80's kid show cartoon, duh. Jeez, looking into things a bit to much are we? Couldn't make things to realistic or complex, it was a saterday morning kids show after all.

[DEATHBYFLYINGCDS]

THIS IS A 90S CARTOON! I feel old enough as it is when people call this retro, I don't need people adding another 10 years.

[DarkBunnyLord]

Meh 92, my mistake, my point never the less remains valid so why the "ALL CAPS" anger response :/

[DEATHBYFLYINGCDS]

1993! Not an angry shout just a shout so you don't forget it.

[DarkBunnyLord]

Hmm, according to what I've looked up it aired originally in 92, not sure if that was just the pilot or what, but it is listed as the original airing date.

[DEATHBYFLYINGCDS]

According to wikipedia, and it's cited sources as well as the internet movie database, and retrojunk(70s,80s,90s tv show database), it came out September 1st 1993.

[AutumnEclipseX]

It has an 80s feel to it though.

[EMY1349]

no it's my gramma! :D ahahaha

[DiscoStuInTibet]

o man...imagine if these aliens had compact disc tecnology

[Dre2Dee2]

Ernie needs to have his spine ripped out by Norman :P

[DiscoStuInTibet]

do they even make people that look like him anymore o_O?

[capcomman1]

@Dre2Dee2 lmao

[TheWarZoneAMV]

that nerd's voice is so freakin annoying

[ArthasvsLeon]

"It's your old pal Maxy-Waxy!"

Anyone else notice the aliens look like the bastard children of the Xenomorphs and Terran Marines from Starcraft?

[lafangeal]

oh man...nerds are better at video games than me....not fair.

[BigDex16]

LMFAO!!!!! GAY ASS NERD...LOL

[MachineSociety]

So this is where they got the plot device that they built the movie Independence Day around

[roothands]

This show has some GREAT samples in it

[glenarth]

lol the aliens are shooting on their ship and on the ship's bridge. dont they wanna go home or something

[glenarth]

"no, it's my granma" funny lol

[fonzieman]

niu gaymm about alienn invajiooon? gimmy gimmy gimmy xD

stupid nerd annoying way to talk :/

[tastarcat]

"200gb optical drive that's smaller than a pack of cards"

We're almost there.

[RisenHellFire]

Cartoons these days seem to be afraid to go into the action genre, with Avatar being the exception, all they seem to be about now is the daily life of a character and their friends. Examples are Spongebob, Gym partner, Fosters home, and so on.

[RickRuss02]

ya they fuckin suck dick

[jeannec1]

Try looking elsewhere than Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network.

[UberkingRobert1]

Why did the aliens shoot at their own mothership if they didn't want it to blow up? Why didn't they take Norman's sword and Nerdboy's mini-laptop? And does anyone but me think that it was incredibly lazy that the writers made the aliens' brain-remover able to be stopped by just unplugging it?

[RickRuss02]

digging way too deep into it man

[LateralBud]

... and why was the alien's diskette compatible with the an inferior earth's mini-laptop? Let's pickette the writers! xD

[lafangeal]

they needed a convience!!!!!

[jeannec1]

But, the aliens didn't suck any brains...

and on another note: the aliens are ahead in technology, but they still use floppy disks?

[sexaypartay]

keep in mind it was made in 1993, to an audience that played with the mighty max toys.

while i love this show, when i was just a child watching this on TV when it aired, ya dont notice these sorta things.

[Aslan222]

its like missle command

[vincentninja68]

I hate how the sound keeps going off track.

[Iadysarah]

<3 Norman

[huwgor]

"I welcome pain!" What a bad arse

[seychelle1]

The voice of the nerd sounds a heck of a lot like Charlie Adler ;) (Buster Bunny from Tiny Toons)

[am122808]

thank u

[jcgamer107]

On the conveyer belt, @ about 6:17 does Max say "I had a dream I'd go like this, only I was wearing a dress?"

[anyawolf]

Yeah he does... sacrasm is a wonderful thing :)

[tschudimann]

HAHAHA i laughed my ass off when he said that!

[gilbert99]

im about to kill that fucking nerd

[JackyBoyz]

"No, it's my grandma." HAHAHAHAHAHA Ah, Max's sarcasm. Always loved it.

[Badin10tions]

Its actually a woman that does that nerds voice,I forget what her name is.

[Komojo]

According to IMDB, the nerd is voiced by Charles Adler.

[Rikun1]

Not too sure I would have wanted to be friends with him, either! His voice would have made me take a drill bit to my ears!

Heh! Heh!

[SohiHien]

holy shit he used a whole thing of whip cream. "Maxy Waxy" love how he scream talks. XD "I had a dream I went out like this....only I was wearing a dress" LMAO "grand theft mothership" Optimus Prime took out the alien LOL

[lildevil017m]

OMG, I nearly choked when Ernie saved max by pulling the plug.

that was tooo funny.

[cloudsoratidus]

that nerd is still annoying me...

[johnnyobaltimore]

"I may be a nerd but I am not a Dweeebbb!"

[HillWillKill]

Little Billy Gates first cartoon appearence.

[whatewer23]

that nerd is talking lice retarted

[Zezlemet]

Aren't the aleins firing at their own ship?

[WolvesRUs]

"I wonder what the penalty is for grandtheft mothership" lol, good show, voices aren't in snyc a whole lot though

[nemsicfi83]

7:13 "easy money" right from T2

[perun1nj]

its your old pal Maxy Waxy!

[anyodomino]

thats awesome theyve got a twelve volt plug and floppy disks on spaceships!!!! hey weve got more in common than we thought!

[bibleandbandana]

I love how in this show Max and his friends are way faster than any monsters, and said monsters always have the worst luck, e.g. being hit by a random truck.

[NecrosisOfLight]

be funny if he was a nerd-poser, and failed at reprogramming the aliens comp.

[joeleitch]

"This is one of those real aliens right?", "no its my grandma!" hahahaha

[jaxblade07]

"eww, Hey if you are hungry there's something in the fridge" LMAO

[UrzaPlaneswalker]

Moral of this story: Be nice to Nerds, for they could save your ass!

[KnowThyself24]

I can see where independence day got their motivation from... LOL< And ernie is the best nerd ever,

[ballsaque]

Why was the claw plugged into the wall?

[bat8man]

got to love the "advanced" electrical outlet

[FlinxWeasel]

was that Optimus Prime that ran the alien over?

[LisaGreywords]

I thought the same thing. XD At least it's not just me...

[Dragon211]

Yes... Aliens would happen to appear as Max got his cap and max would so happen to know how to pilot an alien space ship into the motherships cargo hold perfectly. And what the hell, aliens that advanced using a plug? o.0 gotta love it :D

[dnangelcat]

this was a fave epi of mine the other one was the blob made out of ppl

[Kooshmeister]

My goodness the voice acting in this show is annoying. Rob Paulsen is a good actor but a poor choice for Max.

[Kooshmeister]

Also the Brain Suckers are very poorly defined, badly written and woefully lame villains. Combined with that annoying creep Ernie, this is definitely my least favorite episode.

[filipeflower]

Kooshmeister ,I'm sorry about replying to this comment of yours after 2 years, but that choice wasn't poor.

[TheCripplerChick]

I'm inclined to agree except for the part about Ernie, I find him annoyingly cute.

[takineko]

Got to love how all the technology is compatable between the aliens and humans. I can't even get my american computer to work in germany XD

"I wonder what the penalty is for grand theft mothership" XDDD

[astrod0g]

i hope ernie isn't a reoccuring character

[Arsenal1508]

He isn't.

[roothands]

But his voice is awesomely terrible. It reminds me of my mom pretending to be Pee Wee Herman.

[Vinir]

@roothands

He sounds like one of those gay drama queen manicurists, not a computer nerd.

"Maxie-Waxie!! Teehee!!"
