To Boldly Flee, Part One

Can't say much except holy fucking shit!
Okay, maybe a bit more than that.
-The beginning, with Critic grieving over the loss of Ma-Ti in Suburban Knights...oh, Critic. ;.; Granted, there were some bits of humor in there with Film Brain and everything, but otherwise... *Sniffles and hugs Critic tightly*
-The guy passing SUCKA (the SOPA law parody) was pretty funny, I will say. Especially his whole "Smurfs 2 will have to be canceled" thing, and "Oh, come on! Everyone knows that chipmunks eating poo is the epitome of high art!" (Basically) Also, Terl putting the Critic under house arrest -- and that one guy's near-snarky reactions to Terl. Especially, "Didn't your film get a two percent on Rotten Tomatoes?" I can just picture him just sitting there going, "Of all the ridiculous lawsuits I've been served, this is the most ridiculous."
-The idea of Paw and company forming a space exploration group is made of so much win that I can't even count it. Also, the whole matter of the heartbeat-like sounds being traced to Jupiter also got me intrigued. Heck, let's say all of it was one whammy of an introduction.
-The conversation between Terl and the Executor. Especially when they argue about which movie they're supposed to be homaging: Return of the Jedi or Revenge of the Sith. And, before the guy passing SUCKA goes to talk with Terl about a possible alliance (Terl hates the Critic for destroying his planet -- never mind it was his own damn fault if I recall correctly, the SUCKA guy just wants to shut down all Internet reviewers because he sees them as a threat to creative freedom or something), the Executor's, "No one puts me on hold!"
-Mechakara scared the living shit out of me. Poor Linkara. 0.0.
-Sci Fi Guy, nooooooooo! (Okay, granted, we had some pretty great Mood Whiplash with Paw calling home to his mom and everything, but still...)
-The Last Angry Geek as the Obi-Wan. Fucking. Perfection. 'Nuff said. :3
-The ending, where it juxtaposed Spoony just going completely and utterly batshit with the Critic's computer filling up with galaxy maps and the word "Remember" was just wonderfully frightening. The whole Spoony-hooked-up-to-the-machine thing started out really funny, what with Spoony's subconscious (look, just go with it) admitting that he really enjoyed the last four Final Fantasy games, etc. but then started getting really creepy when they started asking about the events of Malachite's hand and everything.
So, honestly, it's really great so far. Frightening in all the right places, sad when it needs to be, and, of course, gutbustingly funny. And ending on such a massive cliffhanger that it's unbelievable.
Can't wait to see more! :D
