I'm really surprised, based on its popularity, that Mike and co. never tried to riff on Kaliman. It would have been comic gold.<BR/><BR/>The BOING is the greatest sound effect ever created, isn't it?Kevin J.

Sounds like a wonderful, wonderful thing. You did it a great justice as I laughed out loud just hearing your descriptions.<BR/><BR/>And really, don't we say McConaughey is perfect for EVERY role we "re-cast"?<BR/><BR/>Speaking of MST3K, this sounds an awful like "The Wild, Wild World of Batwoman" in it's craziness and randomness (or perhaps, even a little bit like the "Batman" tv show?).<BR/><BR/>Oh, and BOING!Troy Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843741571724231174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8785859730868628316.post-1502490827208001922009-04-01T12:34:00.000-07:002009-04-01T12:34:00.000-07:00Leo:Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

I was talking to a friend last night about the movie I had review and told him it was Kaliman, and his immediate response was "isn't that a Mexican comic book character?"<BR/><BR/>I guess I didn't realize just how ingrained this character is in Latin American pop culture. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by.Kevin J.
