I spotted one tiny easter egg – one of the ’50 accounts’ who posted the original maths problem answer that kicks it all off included ‘Rudy Rucker’.

Also, you neglected to mention that the big bad in this appears to be canadian electrohouse DJ Deadmau5. (Although he goes through a ‘Great Aku’ middle stage too)

I never really understand the problem people have with animated dubs. Of course there are some terrible ones out there, but its not as if there is a similar disjunction between body language and speech that is the main reason live action dubbing seems to fail. That said I wish some people would try harder with dubbing, if you can make a pig talk in Babe, surely you can dub a foreigner properly.
