Heavy Metal / Deadmau5

Posted by nal1200 - July 2nd, 2010


So I recently watched the South Park episode where the boys huff cat urine to get high, resulting in Kenny visiting a tripped out boob land. It had never occurred to me that this was a parody of anything, until today, when I saw 'Heavy Metal' for the first time. So much nudity! Yikes!

Anyway, what an awesome movie for its time! The animation is sloppy, but the story is actually pretty decent. Probably my favorite part is the alien abduction scene. The ship they drive actually reminded me of something i've seen before..

Do you think Deadmau5 got some inspiration from 'Heavy Metal?'

Heavy Metal / Deadmau5


Comments

Heavy Metal is so weird. I thought the animation was fantastic, I mean, the character movement sucked, but there was a FBF hand drawn animation of a panorama of the landscape with terrain in 3d, and I highly doubt anybody on newgrounds could make something like that scene.

Also, chicks were hot. But yeah, I think deadmau5 is a little overhyped. There are tons of artists on Newgrounds like Paragon-X9, xKore and Sirdangolot5 who are just as good if not better.

mneeeh... i'd guess it's more of a mickey-mouse inspired character.
mau5 ~ mouse when you pronounce it.

the "mouth" don't look disney-inspired though.

What story? I watched it, and I thought nice animation but the story is pretty illogical and by that I mean it makes no sense AT ALL. But I guess that's because different artists made their own story arch.

More like pac man and mickey mouse

Deadmau5 got his mouse head from him playing around in a 3D program where he created a Pacman, but he added ears to it and called it a mouse head. I doubt he got any inspiration from heavy metal, but if he did, DAYUM, it delivered.

Heavy Metal is one of my favorite movies, even though the scene where the kid got shot with like 5 spikes gave me a fear of blood.

its a simple face, it's not like a bunch of people don't already draw like that anyways

According to my info, Deadmau5 was messing with a 3D object program and started throwing some circles together and said "Hey, I made a pacman, let's put some ears on it" he said in an interview.

I only have one thing to say about that coincidence.

:D <--- It's not that hard to figure out. I believe what you are referring to here is what is commonly known as the "Happy Face". Gee, Deadmaus is SO unoriginal.

Also, Heavy metal IS a pretty badass movie.
