Sure we have all seen your Saturday morning cartoon, your kid's cereal, and transforming action figure (I have an orginal Little Red Death Robot Ninja in mint condition), but what is the background story to HISHE?
Where do all these talented people come from? (Prison?)
How did you all meet up? (Did an Island come into play?)
Why HISHE? (Was How it Should Have Began taken?)

You son of a **** I've got 7 Little Red Death Laser Sword Samurai's, The Little Red Death Tomb Raider Edition, the Little Red Death with the babyrocket shoulder launcher, but no matter how I've looked I can't find the Robot Ninja edition!

:lol: That is awesome!
I can share a little...I met Daniel at a Halloween party in 2002. I was Marilyn Monroe and he was...seriously, do I even have to tell you guys? He was Optimus Prime. :D
Anyway, I also met Stephanie (LetsGoBuffs) and Mark (fancypants) and the four of us started "Item Four" and started making shorts.
Several years later Daniel and Tommy (the other co-creator who we never see in the forum :cry: ) had the idea for HISHE (and that was the first and only title of the website). I'll let Daniel go into more detail about how they came up with it.
Anyway, I saw the first animation and told them we needed to get it online and I would help...so they graciously let me be a partner. It's been a pretty wild ride.
Question
So, was ur first short the matrix?
Or did you make a few before deciding on one?

Red...Are/Were all you guys film/art majors in college?
(I got my Little Red Death Robot Ninja in a box of Kiddo Cereal)
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
Well, we kind of come from all walks of life! I was an advertising major, and I'm married to Mark (fancypants), a film major.
By the way, at that Halloween party where we all met Tina, I was dressed as Wednesday Aadams from the Aadams family (surprise, surprise!) and Mark was Colonel Sanders.
And I have a mint Little Red Death with kung-fu action. Will trade for a Robot Ninja and Little Red Death dream house!
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
So if what you are saying is true then we have Tina (LittleRedDeath), Stephanie (LetsGoBuffs) and Mark (fancypants) and Tommy (Daniel's Tyler Durden)...but what about Gil (the coach) and the black smoke (monster)? How are they all wrapped up in this?
I had to eat 50 boxes of Kiddo cereal to get a limited first edition Little Red Death Ninja Robot! What I will trade you is, The Preschool Little Red Death Minivan with real working flamethrower, but I have to warn you it may be dangerous due to the Chinese paint job.

This thread is starting to hurt me!

I GOT A FIRST EDITION COMPUTRON WITH FULL TRANSFORMING CAPABILITIES AND THE RETRO CHROME PAINT!!!! Ahhhh life is good =)
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
So...much...funny...I don't know what to respond to!!
First off, this:
Quote:
is freaking hysterical and someone needs to show Tommy!
Secondly, I have 3 Little Red Death Dream Houses Buff, so I'll give you one next time I see you. I bought them up when I thought I was having a girl. Man if only real doll toys were cool enough to have "red death" in the title, I would have been a much cooler kid.
As far as the robot ninja goes, I couldn't eat another bite of Kiddo cereal.
So Gil or (gilinator5000) is actually a basketball coach and lives with Daniel (as does Tommy...or Tyler Durden). They both have done voice work and frequent the comic strip.
Kiddo (the black smoke monster) just turned three in August and is VERY well loved. I imagine he will come in handy when the zombies attack.
And Valar, you may have a first edition computron, but I've actually taken a ride in the actual Jeeptimus! :lol:
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
The Tyler Durden comment won the thread most definitely. I'm still rooting for Computron.

you guys make me happy :)
--order now and you can have the assisted living death match arena play set, complete with bifocals and medievil weapons. Old people action figures sold separately.
I think the history of HISHE has already been posted, but i'll share again if it wasn't. There once was a movie called "Flight of the Phoenix" with Dennis Quaid that sucked really bad. And so on the way home from viewing this certain yawner Tommy and I started talking about how "There's no way those people would have flown out of there with out a scratch on them, if they made it out at all" and "all those people hanging on the wing would be full of bullets if an army on horses was shooting at them like that with rifles." From there sparked the idea there should be a place that re-makes movie endings in a more accurate/logical way, and it should be called "how it should have ended" yada yada we gotta website.
I had drawn cartoons for most of my life, but never tried to apply it to animation. I had experience in video editing and after effects, so i figured I could at least pull off something. The matrix was the test. After it worked we just slowly grew from there, and HISHE has morphed into what it is today. we are still small, but we have come a long way i think.
my dream is that HISHE will grow so large and productive that it can self sustain... but i think we've got a ways to go.

Actually Daniel, you could say that we leaned at least ten new things about HISHE...
Therefore...The Top Ten New Things Learned About HISHE...
10. Tina has a full line of highly successful Little Red Death toys. Ironically, the cheerful Chinese paint job turned out to be more dangerous then the weapons grade plutonium contained in each figure.
9. The first Optimus Prime to have lips wasn't Michael Bay, but Daniel Baxter.
8. Kiddo is a versatile thespian and entrepreneur having rolled his Emmy nominated role as the black smoke monster on Lost into his own Saturday morning cartoon and children's breakfast cereal.
7. Stephanie is such strong women that she lets her husband Mark wear the fancypants in the family.
6. The collective psychotic break amongst the HISHE crew has lead to the creation of an imaginary co-creator named "Tommy Watson". It is widely believed that the invention of "Tommy" was done as a group defense mechanism to relieve them of responsibility for HISHE concepts.
5. Halloween parties are not only for candy, they are also for life changing meetings that will eventually lead to a revolution in short films that will change the world...or at the very least how the world should have ended.
4. After the infamous Halloween party, Mark started to receive death threats from the San Diego Chicken.
3. The poor production on the Spiderman 3 HISHE is due to lackluster coaching by Gil. Rumors are that HISHE is in talks to replace him with Bob Knight. It is thought that Knight's style of coaching will get more out of HISHE number one producer Daniel Baxter then his endless dribbling.
2. The "yadda yadda" Daniel refers to on how he got the website refers to winnings he made from an underground bowling tournament run by the Russian mafia.
1. HISHE fans own an impressive and yet quite disturbing number of children's toys.

That was my favorite...I also love number 6 and number 5 is incredibly nice of you. I consider Halloween to be a pretty special holiday now because I met such great people that night...I forgot to mention that everyone had already known each other for like 10 years before that party. They were sweet enough to let me join the crowd.
And VALAR...holy cow dude, you have a soft side!! If someone had said Valar will post a kitten in the forum someday, I would have said, NO WAY!!
I too LOVE this thread. :lol:
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
Hhehehehee I like 8, 3, 6, and 2! Tehehe! Awwww!!! Valar how cuuuute! And Tina you rock of course they'd let you in on their movie making games... Wait I think I'm mixing up Robot Chicken Season 2 and HISHE... -snickers to self- "Dad could you kick an angels ass?"
-sighs- Yea... good times...
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
Actually most of my friends would be surprised to discover the asshole side I show when I review here. Sorry yall get the lion's share of my venting.
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
it's ok Valar :) if you gotta vent, then vent away, homey.
and Ctalons, you are a nut. :) my optimus costume had NO LIPS.
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
How come I got left out of the Halloween Party tale? I was there too. Plus the fact that I have an obsession with Marylin Monroe played a part in putting us all together.
Also, I kind of wish I could replace myself with Bob Knight, that would be totally awesome.

I have your rookie coaching card from Team USA.
You just need to be more like Knight and every once in a while throw a chair at Daniel when he slacks off.
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
let's not look into that statement too much. let's just say i might have never met Tina had it not been for that Marylin Monroe get-up.
And my anger management consultant said i'm not allowed to throw things anymore. . . . . .
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
Really Gil? That's funny cause my therapist says I should throw things around.
(hehe I kid, Gil you's important too!)
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
We love you too Gil!
Tina must have made a great Marylin Monroe. What did you dress up as Gil?
Number 3 & 4 are the best!!!! LOL
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
I agree that I am awesome. But Bob Knight is super mega awesome. I have not yet reached that status.
And I (unfortunately) dressed as the grim reaper. It was a good idea gone horribly bad.
CTLNews: How it Should Have Ended...Began
Aww, Gil, I'm sorry. Yes, it's quite possible no one would have talked to me if it wasn't for Gil. :wink:
And it was fun being a blond for the night...and really weird when I went out with everyone again with my red hair and jeans! I was a little afraid they wouldn't recognize me. :D
