Wow, what a week it’s been, huh? It seems like just the other day that our three day, week long series of posts about Smarkus & Co. began. If you missed the others and are too lazy too scroll down (let’s face it, you are), then click here and here but do not click here. Well, I warned you. And that will teach you to do exactly what I say. Just like Little Joey here, who screwed with Smarkus, the animated, Satan-Cast-In-Silicon, and got what was coming to him in the dead of pajama-pissing night
More on the creators of Smarkus and Co. when the skin on my space bar thumb heals and it doesn’t hurt to type. I chew the skin off my fingers when I see videos like Smarkus and Co. I’m not kidding.
One final note: I’m incredibly disturbed/delighted that Ron Hall, the voice of Smarkus, went on to star in a movie called InterneTrix (which, disappointingly, is not about an Internet-flavored, fruity cereal, ) which is ridicuolously similar to the plot of Smarkus and Company. But instead of people getting sucked into a laughably outdated computer to learn about blind kids playing baseball…
Shown: getting sucked into a computer, artist rendition
…people are getting sucked into a laughably outdated computer to flip around to a song by, one assumes, DMX’s kid brother. Ron Hall, you’ve come a long way, baby!
By the way, I encourage all my readers to please post my Smarkus videos, the only ones online I think, on Ron Hall’s MySpace page. He’ll either love you for it, or deliver high kicks. Whatever the outcome, be sure to let me know how it goes.
Two things concerning these latest Smarkus revelations:
1. When “InterNetrix” was first mentioned, I totally thought it was going to be some sort of Internet dominatrix flick. But a “Matrix” ripoff? Well played, movie-making guys with no money.
2. And Ron Hall? I never imagined Smarkus as voiced by Sticky Fingaz from the “Blade” TV show.
Now where are the Craig T. Nelson clips?!

1. Wait until they make InterNetrix 2: InterNetriX ReVolumptions!
2. You can never look at Smarkus the same way again. Both only have four fingers, too, I think.
Craig T. Nelson is not in Smarkus…I was making a little Poltergeist lore reference. But I will find out a way to work him in. He must have starred in a cartoon somewhere…

How did I miss the obvious “Poltergeist” reference? Gah! Just call me Dauber.
Wait … that’s a “Coach” reference. Shit.
