'Robot Chicken' Season 5, Episode 12 Recap - 'Casablankman'

'Robot Chicken' Season 5, Episode 12 Recap - 'Casablankman' Another week, another movie title mash-up for the title. This week, it's "Casablankman," a mix of two truly great classics. Really, the both of them are probably on an even keel as far as cinematic importance goes.

It starts off with some pod racing. Some pea pod racing. Whatever, just eat your f**king salad already.

If that whole sketch about the talking Rubik's Cube and the crazy desert raping horse confused you, then clearly you are unfamiliar with a cartoon from the 1980's called "Rubik, The Amazing Cube."

And nobody would blame you for that. Here's a video of the intro, so you can get an idea of the voice that, as Carlos says, is... well, not pleasant.

Lovely, isn't it? Moving on...

Giraffes using your shower isn't cool. Neither is standing idly by while an innocent mime almost asphyxiates in an invisible box.

Also not cool: hunting innocent humans. The PETA of the Predator world (maybe PETH?) shows up and harasses a hunting Predator with their hippie ways, then washes up the Governator and sends him on his way. If wonder if Predator hippies have a Predator Woodstock every year?

A capella Star Trek. Nice.

You've heard of planking. You may have heard of Tebowing as well. But those are nothing compared to Suping! Here's what you do: pretend you're going to do something horrible and life-threatening, and Superman will take time out of his schedule to come save you. Record it, put it on YouTube. You just got Suped! Just... watch out if Lex Luger straps you to a bomb. You might have some explaining to do.

And finally, did you ever wonder how those anatomically ridiculous inhabitants of Eternia maintained those lingerie model bodies or rippling, oversized muscles? Simple: lots of working out, and maybe a little juicing. Does He-Man get fined for steroid use?
