Talking Simpsons - See Us LIVE at PAX West 2023!

Episode Date: August 14, 2023

It might be hard to believe, but we haven't had a live show at PAX in four years. Why? We honestly couldn't say. But in 2023, we're making our grand return to the famed video game convention to celebrate the 28th anniversary of Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins! And frankly, we'd love to see you there. Check out the details below: When: Saturday, September 2nd at 7:00pm  Where: PAX West, The Monarch Theatre And here's the panel description, straight from the PAX website: Shortly before the first Mortal Kombat movie violenced its way into theaters the world got a brief preview of this cinematic event with The Journey Begins. This direct-to-video commercial gave fans a taste of the upcoming film's first act rendered in cut-rate 2D animation and CGI scenes that make Reboot look like Pixar. And it only cost $19.99! On this panel, join your pals at the What A Cartoon podcast as they give you a tour of the highs and lows of this piece of MK media so you don't have to suffer through the whole thing yourself. As a new Mortal Kombat looms ever closer GET OVER HERE and see how far we've truly come!

Prepare yourself! Prepare yourself! panel and that's happening on saturday september 2nd 2023 between 7 p.m and 8 p.m at the monarch theater and yes if you are not there in person you can stream it online through twitch but we want to see you there get your ticket now what are you waiting for that's right it is our triumphant return to pax we last did a panel there at the pre-covid times in 2019 Now we're finally doing it, and we're doing it in my soon-to-be new hometown of Seattle. And I am super excited that we are doing it, especially to talk about one

of the worst cartoons we've ever covered on this to celebrate it on its 28th anniversary. We're going to talk all about this direct-to-video movie, in quotes, and we'll have plenty of visual aids on hand. You will see a man's texture maps be ripped from his body live on the stage it's perfect timing too because of course we're

on the verge of the release of mortal kombat one so what a better time to remember the original age of mortal kombat 1995 the year of mortal kombat as the commercials said back then when this video uh this video came out advertising it. You've maybe heard us talk about it before but this will have visual aids that you can only have at a live show. Again that is the What a Cartoon podcast panel

at PAX West. The panel's name is Mortal Kombat The Journey Begins Official 28th Anniversary Panel and that is happening Saturday, September 2nd between 7 and 8pm Pacific Time in the Monarch Theatre and again you can see that online on Twitch and if you missed this panel you may be tempted to have a man pull out your still beating heart
