And yes, that's a very young George Clooney in that second screenshot.

I just don't understand what caused the toxic avenger and this to get Saturday morning cartoons. Trying to capture TMNT's lightning in a bottle I guess.

Yes. This.

Being born in the 80's means you got pop culture the wrong way around because all the good shit already happened. From the point of view of a 1985 baby, Star Wars has always been there in exactly the same way as Sherlock Holmes: Long enough for people to make children's media loosely based on it.

So, there's a bunch of us who, when you mention Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, they see a Saturday morning cartoon with talking tomatoes rather than the Sharknado of the 1970's.

The theme song from the cartoon is what started playing in my head when I saw the post lol

Every wacky live action thing got turned into a kids cartoon back then. Ghostbusters movie, Ed Grimley SNL sketch, and a ton more i can't remember now

๐Ÿ… One of the more entertaining B-movies out there. Better than the original as far as I'm concerned. ๐Ÿ…

Holds up better than recent films.

Yes and no. There are two classification systems, botanical and culinary. So when the scientists are trying to devise a way to kill the killer tomato, he's a fruit. If he dies and chefs try to figure out how to make his remains into soup, then he's a vegetable

They didn't teach me that in school. I had to learn it from "Return of the Killer Tomatos".

Haha glad i could elucidate!
