If you hated Aliens Vs. Predator, you’ll want to print this one and burn it to death. The latest on the Halloween Countdown is the long awaited sequel, Aliens XXVII.
I agree w/ Scourge, these are XE at its best… IF ONLY HE’D FINISH THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL- THE CHIA ARTICLE! XE READERS UNITE AND DEMAND IT BE COMPLETED!

3 Noses?

that was funny matt. Are you going to review the halloween circus animal cookies?
Ghosted by pikachulover @ 09/22/2004 12:24 PM EDT
Good one Matt, I always look forward to the Halloween updates.
Now that was comedy. But why no Ash to kick Jason’s butt? Surely he is the mightiest of chainsaw wielding maniacs and deserving of some face time.

Hate to derail the halloween spirit, but I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t mention that the new Green Day album came out today. I had to fight through the Star Wars fanatics to get it. The sales girl was like "you’re not buying the trilogy?"
In short, American Idiot is a modern day Abbey Road, except even more connecteded.
Even shorter: AI is the greatest album ever made! Okay, halloween talk resumes….now.

Speaking of green, that reminds me that I need to watch my copy of Grinch Night.

Blahhg, don’t ever compare Green Day to the Beatles…

Not as funny as Ralphie Goes To Hell, but I liked the Floral Zone.
Ghosted by TB Tabby @ 09/22/2004 6:51 AM EDT
What are those toys?? That’s awesome, little Alien lego-type figures!!
Ghosted by EyeLikeP00 @ 09/22/2004 8:04 AM EDT
Aww, I loved Ralphie goes to Hell. That was classic.
Seeing Simon reminds me how Mr. Trajeal kept calling Hurricane Ivan, "Alvin". I swear, he has some kind of speech impediment.
I agree w/ the others. These articles are the best. I was waiting for Moss Arms Skelator to show up and start bitching.

CHIA-PLOT!!!!!!!!!

Awesome Matt. Those are cool toys. You should do more of those. Especially CHIA PLOT!
CHIACHIACHIACHIACHIACHIA!

why am I picturing Skeletor sticking a facehugger on Mossman and saying, "Hold this".
oh yeah, long time lurker first post.

MATT – THAT WAS BRILLIANT!!!!
:: pats Matt on head. patpatpat. :: Whose bed was that, anyway? I love that floral material (ok, now you know I’m a girl…)
Good to see Trippy the 8th dwarf again! Hiya Trippy!
Viz everyone saying we have to gang up on Matt and force him to finish the Chia plot: we know, people! Nomatter what we have said, Matt just ain’t ready to CHIA wiv us. So I created own bad spoof involving My Little Ponies and chocolate… must continue with it, but need help! Insufficient toys! Anyone got a digital camera and a lot of eighties toys????? Mail me! (click on me name). I’ve never had such fun; (weeell, for a given value of never) and can heartily recommend spending hours murdering turtles. TMNT’s, that is. Real turtles are too cute, really. Then take pictures. Evil ponies rule the wwwworld! Whohoooo!
Damn, I love this stuff. I am in the middle of playing Alien vs Predator 2 and my alien is getting so big…I am so proud…I promised I wouldn’t cry.
It is a pretty sweet game. I finished the human and predator missions and I am about half way through the alien mission. This best part is growing the alien from a face hugger and watching him grow.

Jesus Christ I LOVE the Halloween Countdown. Actually forgot HOW MUCH I loved it last year. I work a 9-5 solo desk job and this makes the day so much easier to deal with.
Ghosted by Hallonut @ 09/22/2004 9:49 AM EDT
I totally respect the Beatles. Don’t get me wrong. I have a Sgt. Peppers patch on my messenger bag, right next to my Blink one…okay, maybe that’s not the best defense.
But seriously, lets not get this off topic, cause quite frankly its my fault at the end of the day =)

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks Simon has hair that looks like bird shit.

Yikes, go away for a week and just look what you’ll miss. Seven articles! Wow Matt, you’ve been crankin’ em out. Looks like the Halloween Countdown has begun and I gotta catch up. Boo!

That wasn’t Simon. Simon wore red. That was Theodore. Duh.
Ghosted by Simon Chipmunk @ 09/22/2004 12:29 PM EDT
Actually, I wore red, you idiot.
Ghosted by Alvin C. @ 09/22/2004 12:32 PM EDT
Au contrare, mon frere. I beg to differ. Simon wore blue (that WAS Simon), Theodore wore green, and ALVIN wore red.
Ghosted by jhnnywalkr @ 09/22/2004 12:34 PM EDT
At least it was a Alien and not those Congo monkeys.

I agree with everyone, these action figure articles are definatly the best x-e offeres. and let me tell you something, I haven’t ever seen something from x-e I didn’t like.
I think this gives me something to do with my website…I will create either an action figure web comic type thingy, or random action figure stories….now to re-learn html, or maybe start java….hmmm.
As of yesterday I’m divorce, sounds so strange. that is all
Ghosted by brandon @ 09/22/2004 1:55 PM EDT
Best Alien movie since the second one!!
Where’d you get the weird Fisher Price looking Alien figures?
That was fucking awesome.
except that part where it says "Going going, jerkworm." That typo really took me out of the moment. I think it should say "Good Going"
Ghosted by fsdgsdgfsfg @ 09/22/2004 7:33 PM EDT
You’re absolutely insane. I love the forbidden floral as well.
Much better than Alien vs. Predator. Although, only slightly better then the last Ernest movie.
Ghosted by manimal789 @ 09/22/2004 8:59 PM EDT
Well, that was…interesting. I’d LOVE to know how you dug up what looks like Jason and Ailens Plamobil toys, though…
Ghosted by starwenn @ 09/22/2004 9:40 PM EDT
Aww the Alien looks like it just wanted a hug…
Ghosted by Mara @ 09/22/2004 10:10 PM EDT
Jason looks so cute with his small chainsaw.
Ghosted by Beta-Theta @ 09/22/2004 10:18 PM EDT
For all those who are asking about the figures:
They’re Mez-itz figures. There’s an Alien pack, an Army of Darkness pack, and a Horror Movie Legends pack (with Jason, Freddy, and Leatherface). Soemday I’ll own them all…
Ghosted by jason1551 @ 09/22/2004 10:18 PM EDT
Aliens are cool!! Die simon!!
Ghosted by Caylor @ 09/22/2004 11:11 PM EDT
heheh..Good job mike. When are we going to see
"The Real Ghostbusters VS. The Scooby Doo Gang"?
PS: I know how to create slime just as good as the ones in the vending machine article with house hold ingredients (KEEP YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER!)…
It would be cool for a halloween special article!

wow. Simon. Where did you get that. I remember I had all the toys from the mid-80’s series. The stage, everything.
