WAHT IS MOST AWESOMEST (jimmy the mod was too "busy" to start this poll)

Wow, Luke has one of the few non-embarrassing guitar faces.

I cannot see your dinosaurs.

The full version of the Star Wars band is awesomer, because Leia totally wails.

TUFF CALL

i can't personally decide

could any of these be more awesome than flying superhero pirates?

ok those last two posts should be bannable offenses

think im leaning toward bear cavalry as its the most fierce. the dinosaur weaponry is a little fussy. star wars isnt really in the running.

the star wars one is pretty awesome tho

BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS

it's gotta be the bears, it's true

No way, those bears are not exciting at all, and neither is beardo, and neither is Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

http://arrrr.com/dinoriders/dinowar-1.jpg

not even close

ok star wars: brilliant move putting luke on rhythm guitar, but then why place him front and center? would be better if viewed from right in front of han.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming

those bears are clearly russian!

rong

bears it is

High altitude and steep mountain slopes on all sides of the valley often causes calm winter nights to be very cold, as radiational cooling from snow-covered ground creates cold air near the surface, which then slides down into the valley due to its higher density. In 1993, this effect during an already severe cold snap plunged the morning low temperature down to -56°F or -53°C in the valley, officially recorded by the National Weather Service. The state record low temperature was also recorded in the valley at Moran at -66°F in 1933.

come on. That's exciting.

god damn hotlinking. Dino Riders ftw.

BEars

1. because it's awesome
2. because of "Bear Calvary: yeah you're pretty much fucked"

Anyone who votes for not bears doesn't know shit about awesome.

HEY GUYS DID YOU ALL GO DEAF OR SOMETHING

BEARS ARE SORT OF COOL

BUT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A COOLER THING ON THIS PLANET THAN A DINOSAUR

PLUS LASERS WHICH ARE TOP 100 COOLEST OF ALL TIME

plus also what is that stone stumpy thing on the right side of bear pic

and is it holding a bottle y/n

some seem to be attempting a real-deal star wars band

that's a good point about the perspective of starwars.jpg

were the dinosaurs as awesomely executed as the bears then they would win

Why you repping for Jackson Hole, river wolf? You like everything in the entire world to be made out of antlers and iron pyrite?

the thing about the bears is that they have the old russian dudes, too

Okay people are REALLY stumping for the bears over BOTH the Star Wars band and the FUCKING AMAZING dinosaurs????

ONLY ONE OF THESE PICTURES FEATURES LASERS, IT'S NOT THAT DIFFICULT

the stumpy thing is a problem i agree

t-rex > rex grossman

Awesomely Executed

I might have gone with the bears if they were manned by Sweaty Bear Pride Committee and not Russian Inner Bureau of Dullness.

Hmm...no I still wouldn't, but it would be an improvement.

I want you all to know I decided Bears before I even scrolled down the thread I ARE NOT A BITER.

bearz is most viscerally awes while the others rely on concepts like "star wars" and "lazerz" to try to conceal the fact that they are not quite as awesome

that stumpy thing is ANOTHER BEAR a baby bear, and yes he is wearing a russian hat. baby bears get cold faster than regular bears which is also why he's drinking a whisky.

also w/bearrs yr thinking "yeah that could actually happen" and "oh no what if they come for me :O"

Dan, how will I ever be able to trust you about awesome again? ;_;

holy shit dan is the only otm person on this thread

jhøshea otm, the key to the bear concept is its simple elegance

jhoshea 8080

also w/bearrs yr thinking "yeah that could actually happen" and "oh no what if they come for me :O"

I AM ALSO THINKING THIS ABOUT DINOS

and the star wars band come to think of it

i mean, they're all awesome, guys

"oh no what if they come to my town and rock my face off :O"

dinosaur lazer colors: powder blue vs lavender? WTF

you guys are are all like those people who think the monkees are better than the beatles because it makes you "alt" or whatever but HEY GUESS WHAT YOUR IRONY FOOLS NO ONE

If star wars was the just the Vader part I would have considered it.

DINOS W/ LASERS WOULD DESTROY BEARS BEING RIDDEN BY DR. MORBIUS ANY DAY OF THE WEEK IN REAL LIFE

is the stumpy thing a statue of a bear wearing a fur hat and drinking from a bottle? Cause that's kind of awesome, too.

guys, guys, guys the point is that they are ALL fuckin awesome, just which one is most awesome. all of these are pretty much amazing though, there's no need to insult any of them.

Kenan-- Yeah it's like a little wooden totem thing.

im sorry i feel sort of personally attacked

im sorry i feel sort of personally attacked

BY BEARS

and are we really supposed to believe that the stegosaurus and the triceratops would be enemies? plz everyone knows they would band together against t rex.

darth and the middle dino got the same dance move

and are we really supposed to believe that the stegosaurus and the triceratops would be enemies?

DIN-ARCHY

dinos and lasers. past and future colliding, creating awesome.

Did you not watch the show?!

VICIOUS BEARS AS ATTACK VEHICLES

Star Wars can't get my vote because they cropped out Leia and she is pwning the entire picture.

I'm guessing the people repping for the bears didn't notice the duder falling to his death off the trike at the top of the cliff.

"trike"

lol nerd

im not sure how i feel abt the dinos being controlled by lizard men v humans. it does add a nice level of wtf catastrophe. but i think id like it better if i could be sure it was dino-developed weapon-technology.

Also lol at humans and their pretty in pink lasers.

I'm guessing the people repping for the bears didn't notice the duder falling to his death off the trike at the top of the cliff dinosaurs fighting with lasers.

green lizard-men, blue lizard men and ant-people v humans; right?

THE BEARS HAVE DRUNK OLD DUDES THO you have to understand why that is a point in the bears favor

Dude, they don't look drunk, they just look like they have bad posture.

The humans are telepathic, is how they keep the dinos from fighting/eating one another.

bears are much smarter than dinosaurs and harder to train, especially if you're old and drunk and it's cold outside.

they're russian, of course they're drunk

I guess the thing I find disappointing about the bear cavalry is that, while it is awesome, it is also somehow completely non-threatening; it doesn't make me BELIEVE I'm pretty much fucked. That dinosaur pic pretty much defines "HOLY SHIT: This is awesome."

yeah and they have way more weapons than you'd think

BEARTRAPS!

and also i might point out that they are RIDING BEARS and SHOOTING SHIT, i mean i've only done that while drunk!

even the totem-bear is drinking

Point in favor of the bear cavalry:

That dude in the foreground is holding himself up with his junk.

MAIN DUDE HAS A BARREL OF BOOZE STRAPPED TO HIS BEAR

Pffft, that's to be expected.

The little bear totem is by far the best thing in that picture.

http://www.toyarchive.com/DinoRiders/Smithsonian/Smithsonian.html

i don't even think the bear cavalry are fighting anyone, i think they're just charging into the woods because someone heard something and they're wasted

second bear dude has a... boom box? easy bake oven? strapped to his bear?

holy shit am I the only one who just noticed THIRD bear dude.

http://sportsmed.starwave.com/media/pg2/2002/0705/photo/tatum.jpg

i don't even think the bear cavalry are fighting anyone, i think they're just charging into the woods because someone heard something and they're wasted

yes! THIS is why they got my vote.

based on the overgrown ruinous appearance of drunken bear totem and surrounding structure i am theorizing that bear riders got wasted and decided it was high time they RETOOK THEIR ANCESTRAL HOMELAND !!!

http://www.katphilbin.com/pictures/hiimadinosaur3.jpg

That wins in my book.

also, guys, this

Huh? Huh? What?!

that is sort of like what the russian bear guys are doing. they are the russian bear riding equivalent of dudes getting wasted on BLM land and riding around on their four-wheelers, shooting guns and scaring cattle

Srsly they have no stirrups! Thighs/nuts of steel!

xpost river wolf wins

That bikes pic is from a Wes Anderson film set right?

the title of that painting is "Aggressively Mediocre/Mentally Challenged/Fantasy Island (circle one)"

well it's definitely not the bears

oh shit

can i change my answer

yeah these are all top-tier awesomeness but i gotta say max is correct here:

RAAAAWR PEW PEW PEW RAAWR PEW PEW

otm, and I don't even like dinosaurs. or lasers.

ok, maybe lasers

you dont like awesomeness, fess up

yeah i don't think that gabbneb is the authority of awesomeness, no like offense or anything

but i mean you like phish

i didn't notice this right away but i think it's pretty intense that some of the dinosaurs are ridden by men and others are ridden by smaller lizard dudes

http://www.merryswankster.com/images/MikeRocksW00ks.jpg

Hahahahaahhaha Vic I lvoe you. xp to "PEW PEW PEW"

what if they were outer space battle-phish fighting bob marley ninjas?

what's that little thing on the ground in the center? a rabbit?

plz refer to thread

i would never do that

it is a rabbit

I'm beginning to think I may have voted a little too hastily for the bear cavalry, the sheer awesomeness of laser dinosaur battles only just beginning to crystallise within my consciousness.

What is that fuckin' Cheryl Tiegs Chewbacca? Wayyy too tousled.

btw guys this is actually what's most awesomest:
My brother-in-law met a dude with a tattoo on his arm of Alan Thicke with a word balloon coming out of his mouth containing the phrase "FUCK OHIO". He said he got it because he loves Alan Thick and hates Ohio.

-- joygoat, Friday, September 7, 2007 4:14 PM (33 minutes ago) Bookmark Link

does anyone have a picture of this man y/n

my friend ash met alan thicke in a portland oregon convince store and alan thicke told him he had completely abandoned the character "alan thicke" and he should probably just fuck off

o_O

that is so rock star

that is more rock star than the "bob saget motherfuckers!!" graffiti i saw that i am certain bob saget himself wrote

DUDE WHAT PART OF FUCKING BEAR CALVARY DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND.

xpost ok next year alan thicke and the guy with the tattoo have to come to the fair.

I have a friend that has plans for a tattoo featuring a t. rex fighting a unicorn that is driving a stylized monster truck.

I should tell him to scrap it and replace with bear calvary y/n?

Or maybe incorporate bear calvary.

replace monster truck w/ bear

i feel pretty good about posting bear cavalry to nb a long time ago.

i feel pretty lame about swiping it from an rpg board and also that it's probably really really old.

it's great tho, and it should win.

unicorn riding bear, t. rex riding monster truck maybe? xpost

DUDE WHAT PART OF FUCKING BEAR CALVARY DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND.

ALRIGHT CHILL OUT I STILL VOTED FOR IT MM'KAY?

STAR WARS BAND = NOT EVEN AS AWESOME AS REAL STAR WARS BAND, ON JABBA THE HUT'S SANDCRUISER

http://www.monstertrucks-uk.com/1k.jpg

unicorn riding HOVERBOARD, bear riding TARKUS

i find the monster truck a bit cloying - also why "stylized"

laser dinosaurs is too busy, and the angles of those laser shots are way off. that's just cheap.

star wars band is an established classic, finally seeing that the full version with leia is better makes me like it less, sorry!

there's balance w/o overt symmetry in the 2 small animals v one large pairing - and keeping it all in the animal kingdom tightens the whole thing up.

When you have lasers and dinosaurs, there is no such thing as "too busy". That's like saying oral sex is "too awesome".

"stylized" i.e. rat fink/Big Daddy Roth, but instead of that ghoul thing, a soft sparkling unicorn.

xposts

tight star wars is better than the one with leia slick

look, you can make a case for something w/o bringing beej into it! it's like the opposite of talking about something bad and then talking about nazis

i had a post on deck about how if it's "rat fink" stylized i say thumbs down but i didn't want to be rude :/

Wait, so if you resort to bringing up beej, you automatically win?????

nazi bj's: awes or evil?

"where does x fall on the fellatio - fascism continuum"

People should remember that I like to encourage my friends to make terrible life decisions, so the more the merrier I say. Maybe I can get him to work in the star wars band. Or alan thicke.

xposts sorry to derail nazi bj thread derail.

I think the "nazi" and the "bj" would cancel each other out, or cause a catastrophic energy release explosion reaction similar to combining matter and anti-matter.

I think someone is going to have to write a email to Pru551an B1ue's webmaster to settle this once and for all.

Frank K?

ok thread, go watch The Night Porter again or something.

wau

!!!!

lulz

Ok, see, now I want to get that tattoo.

I haven't read any of this thread, but the bears one is clearly the awesomest. First, who the fuck cares about Star Wars. Second, the dinosaurs with lasers looks like a stupid fantasy novel. The bears one is great because a) it's true: you ARE fucked, b) it leaves a little something to the imagination, and c) it doesn't go on talking about how "awesome" it is.

c is bullshit

8 ball shift knob!

I'm dying..

Kerm = god?

http://i15.tinypic.com/52lg1o3.jpg

i don't even think the bear cavalry are fighting anyone, i think they're just charging into the woods because someone heard something and they're wasted

lol, even further support for the bears.

Support your right to arm bears, etc...

http://i15.tinypic.com/4m2b79f.gif

and the guy in the back is one-handing an ak, which you just don't see people doing these days

i vote for star wars band, even though leia is missing

T-REX FTW!
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1099/1343706338_7136b28b1c_o.jpg

that's got to go on the other arm, then.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MY DIPTYCH? LET ME ROLL UP MY SLEEVES IN THAT CASE

can someone PLZ do unicorn on hoverboard versus bear on tarkus

Someone plz do Tyrannosaurus Rex vs. Marc Bolan

http://i18.tinypic.com/678udtz.gif

i don't even think the bear cavalry are fighting anyone, i think they're just charging into the woods because someone heard something and they're wasted

this is so far the only convincing argument for the bear cavalry

They're Finlanders fighting back the Russians in the Winter War.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Fin

:D

you mean WIN

So, so, so fucking great, Kerm.

Bears need the boost here.

go bears

If bears don't win, I will blame Louis and his backsliding.

And then we will sic bears on him.

this is actually true. then we will tattoo him with bears.

have dinos 404'd for anyone else or am i the only one?

HA TAKE THAT DINOSAUR VOTERS.

I think the general consensus is that dinos have 404'd for everyone

it just means they're too awesome for this thread

HOW AWESOME ARE YOUR DINOSAURS NOW?

xpost we agree to disagree

(because you are rong and your precious dinosaurs have deserted you.)

probably out making surrender flags out of AWESOME BEAR CALVARY.jpg

Where have all the dinos gone? Shot with lasers every one.

Dinos displayed at my work on pc/explorer, but not at home on mac/safari.

NOT THAT I WOULD WANNA CHANGE MY VOTE ANYWAY.

Creationists have a new out for dinosaurs. Wiped out by wicked awesome bear calvary.

On the fourth day god created BEARS,
and he saw that they PWNED fake fossils he'd only planted to fuck with the Darwinists,
On the 5th day the BEARS R Vader's Father

Dude, Bear Calvary /= Bear Cavalry.

But probably still awesome. And kind of apt for what you were saying!

too excited to spel.

On the 6th day Gary Gygax smoked God out, and God was all, WTF, and made even more BEARS

I might vote for a picture of a bear calvary. GRIZZLY GOLGOTHA!

KERM OTM

MASSIVE LOLZ, GABBNEB

SOARDZ R KEWLR >><>>> LAZERZ

I BET THE LIITLE GREEN LZRDS WUOLDN'T SHARE THERE VODKA

THE BEARZ WOULD SHAER THEIR VODKA EVEN AS THEY WERE EATING U BECAUSE BEARS R BROS LIKE THAT

Dinos displaying OK here.

1 vote for BEARS from me! Dinos are awesome, but bear cavalry is more awesome still. Star wars sux0r.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ILX's opinions are the exact opposite of mine

Welcome to the club.

only just saw this but wtf the bears are clearly the worst of the three choices

UH WHO GIVES A SHIT WHO WON THIS POLL DID YOU SEE THE FUCK OHIO UNICORN

priorities you dipshits.

The Dino pic is 80's board game/comic Gamarauders right?

it's the dinosaurs. i mean, just look at them, one is bright and active and exciting and fierce, and the other is practically monochrome and has TAME BEARS.

No such thing. They probably ate their riders shortly after that picture was taken. And the photographer, too.

All you bearists need to just accept that this poll was a statistical anomalysaurus and hush before you have to witness the graphic truth. Unicorn killed that Grizzly with nothing but a hoverboard and a lightning bolt gun even though the bear had a fully-functional TARKUS, and you saw what one lone T-rex did to unicorn when unicorn had a MONSTER TRUCK... T-Rex hasn't even put on lasers and missile launcher yet and you Bear people won't stop rattling your sabers!!! You've been warned. Stegosaurus is tired of hearing about those damn commie bears and I don't even want to have to break out the archaeopteryxs. You're gonna be ashamed when those domesticated bruins get taken down by some lazer-equipped glorified flying lizards with fancy feathers. Know this.

OMG U R ALL RONG STAR WARZ RAWK = KING!!

I wanted a shit of Tarkusbear Hovercorn. Or, more unrealistically, I want a giant tapestry of it.

OH GOD I MEANT TO SAY I WANT A SHIRT...A SHIRT!

Riiiiight...

THE SYSTEM WORKS

I for one volunteer to be Kerm's agent, selling his breakthrough visionary art for only the reasonable fee of all the money.

With the riches, I'm going to buy a mechanized future unicorn made entirely from caviar.

And feed it to a T-Rex.

On fire.

You'd have to pick up my fabrication expenses (includes food and beer).
