    “Do you know what is best in life?”

    “Babies.”

    “WHHHAAAA???!!!!”

    God damn, that was funny. And the vid…the vid just works. Everything is twenty times funnier when 'seeing' the reactions and faces.

    I forget the number of the transmission awesome this came from anybody remember.

    • dennett316

      It says Episode 32 at the end of the video……hmmmm, if only we could use that info to deduce the episode number…

      :)

    I kept staring at Ahnold's wildly gesticulating eyebrows and that just made it even funnier.

  • http://twitter.com/LucasChad Lucas Allen

    “AAUGH!!! I HAVE TOO MANY SMALL CHILDREN TO FEED! AAUGH!!!”

    Seriously, good stuff!

  • desertpunk23

    Brilliant lol

  • http://www.facebook.com/lou.nolastnamegiven Lou Nolastnamegiven

    Damn that was funny. WE NEED ANOTHER ARNOLD-OFF! FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPRAH!

  • URGMA

    it says episode 32 at the end

  • XploreInsanity

    Absolutely brilliant Spoony, lol.

  • Isolder74

    The Life references reminds me of one game I played where I seemed to land on every single new baby square on the map and all of the twins. I think we ran out of people that game session! Only 3 of us were playing and I ended up needing all of the extra cars to hold all my kids!

  • Iaro

    “De cookie is guud, but whaat is best in liife?”
    “Babies.”
    “WHAT?!”
    XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Brilliant!

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=802975065 Duane Van Norden

    OMG.. More of this. Regular feature…

  • Princess Stabbity

    There are no words to properly express for this. None. But epic is close enough for now.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=603628793 Austin Crowley

    Is there any way to get the song in the Credits?

  • AlarStormbringer

    Spoony… your Arnold was soooo epic.

  • Firestonex

    Loved it.

  • anonns

    Should've been a debate between Christopher Walken and Arnold

  • saint23thomas

    What, no Doug?
    We need Doug.
    We need another Arnold.
    We need “Arnold³”.

  • thedeviot

    Ah man that was pretty funny.

  • http://twitter.com/PKHTJim James Jim Roseboom

    Awesome!

    Reminds me of an O and A clip from years ago- Sound board prank calls with Arnold.

  • CJ47

    this needs to go longer than 7 minutes

  • CalebTheTimeTraveler

    “Who is your daddy, and what does he do? Yeah”
    “Are you coming on to me?”
    “Who is your daddy, and what does he do?”
    “My daddy works at Verizon”
    “Come on, don't bullshit me”
    “He Does”
    “Stop it”
    “Okay, he raped me!' -Sobs-
    “Arnold can smell fear”
    “My CPU is a neural net processor, a learning computer.”
    “You LIE!”
    “Bull Shit!”
    “No you bull shit!”

    That may just be the best thing I've ever heard ever. I want more of this as soon as Humanly.. nay, Arnoldly possible.

  • Necromas

    It can be the sequel.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Keegan-Smith/100000968724642 Keegan Smith

    Spoony Arnold dominated the Arnold-off.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Eric-Carlsson/100001008026756 Eric Carlsson

    Props to the guy that made the animations. splendid work!

  • http://twitter.com/Emptysquare Mitchell McIntyre

    That was the greatest thing in the history of the internet

  • http://profiles.yahoo.com/u/JXBOPVOATEEZ2MEP67SCMGI53U Nick

    I didn't really start cracking up until the last bit when you said “No No… It's gay if our balls rub together.”

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Omnikus-Schlotter/100000373849732 Omnikus Schlotter

    Most awesome thing ever. In the universe.

  • Cthulhu07

    Commentary done by both Ahnulds… now that would be awesome :D

  • Cthulhu07

    This still cracks me up every time I hear it. And now with the animation, it's even more hilarious than before. Props to DanHarolds for doing it. :D

  • koldstare

    gaaaaaay..

  • http://twitter.com/OlivawTweet Olivaw

    Spoony your Arnold was far more excellent than that other lame dude's Arnold. Your exclamations and meaningless noises are fantastic.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/William-Shelton-Brown/1587610163 William Shelton Brown

    I want to see more. maybe with another Arnold.

  • Ashenge

    Thank you for that. That little contribution only you could make as a seasoned, unique human being. Everyone will be sure to bear this in mind in the future.

  • Il Principe

    Actually, Spoony does a really mean Arnold. Big Thumbs Up! Although it's not his real dialect, but overall, it sounds much more believable.

    I think a lot of us would like to see more of this: The Arnoldz, all NEW this fall on Spoony Cartoony =)

  • koldstare

    Oh snap, Epic PWNAGE LOL!

    what a retard..

  • Spokojasne

    both arnolds were hilarious, and animation was fantastic – this video is win

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=557591952 Christopher Hodgson

    I am in tears right now with laughter, that was freakin hilarious. Spoony's Ahnold was great, you should get involved with the Austrian Death Machine guys for a cameo on the new album man!

  • sparntz

    That never happened and you know it.

    • Anonymous

      It did. I suppose the only thing that would convince you would have been if we had the foresight to have filmed the game in question. If you are about to say there is plenty of kids tokens in the game keep in mind this. 2 other people were playing and landing on new baby squares too. Count the squares for new kids in a classic version of the game and only count the ones are on a path with the least number. There are two sets of twins. I landed on them all and it is possible, without cheating, so shut up.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Justin-Rake/1497902141 Justin Rake

    OMG,first comment I have ever made but this shit is fucking FUNNY!!!Also,where is his gap?99% funny,the 1% is his gap missing lol

  • Cthulhu07

    This sequel idea should be greenlighted and put into production ASAP :D

  • Booloo

    jesus christ sean in this looks so oddly win

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=16930741 Ben Arzate

    It wasn't gay. The balls weren't touching.

  • Pearse18

    That was Class!!

  • dennett316

    I bet you make every room you enter light up with smiles don't you? Curmudgeon….CURMUDGEON!!!

  • dennett316

    Seconded!! That would be un-fucking-believable.

  • http://twitter.com/DANfan69 Kaohe Alama-Francis

    So Spoony, what does your Arnold do when he's in the basement? Does he have an abundance of cookies lying around there?

    I also love how Sean just stands there awe struck at the awesomeness that is transpiring there in that video!

    Love the classic lines such as “SHE'S MAH WIFE!” and “IT'S ONLY GAY IF BALLS TOUCH AND WE MAKE EYE CONTACT!”

  • http://profiles.yahoo.com/u/5DRFJCIW2BZZ6YAYHMVDZU7OJU Justin

    That was epic

  • Altoman5

    I loved that segment during that Transmission Awesome episode. The animation was pretty good. I'm sure that this clip will be on Awesome Blog of the Week on the next TA episode.

  • popov89

    picturing two Arnolds Eiffel-towering Maria Shriver is not how I expected my morning to start

  • Salenstormwing

    Wow, that was AWESOME, and yet somehow neither Arnold made a single Mr. Freeze quote during the entire 'debate'. This is what happens when moderators don't ask questions about Global Warming and What killed the Dinosaurs.

    • http://www.boredomsedge.com ObieWanCoyote

      But really, isn’t that better for everybody… I mean the no Mr. Freeze references…

    • http://www.boredomsedge.com ObieWanCoyote

  • Ebonwing

    WOW! This is so going on my iPod!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Cody-Hutton/1841901145 Cody Hutton

    This makes me want to throw up several voice clips of myself and make this a tri-bate. And yes, I can, and I will, sing as Arnold as well.

    Either way this is hilarious and I <3 anyone that can do Arnold speeeeeeek.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Freddy-Duran/100000817426762 Freddy Duran

    Wait so who won?…spoony you should have a 4way arnold off with The Austrian Death Machine,The real arnold,You,and that other guy in this vid

  • foodlespane

    troooololololol…

  • http://www.facebook.com/lou.nolastnamegiven Lou Nolastnamegiven

    “Spoony Cartoony”?

    My friend, you may have just come up with the best title for an animation series that have heard in some time.

  • saint23thomas

    Yeah, the Nostalgia Critic's Arnold.

  • Il Principe

    Glad to be of service. All hail to the Experiment!

  • http://www.youtube.com/smeghead4269 Smeghead

    That ruled! I remember hearing the Arnold-off on Transmission Awesome a while back, and this animation just makes it even better!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/George-Georgakis/558962949 George Georgakis

    The animation was amazingly good, especially considering it was done by one person. Very smooth and not-choppy. The audio put me to tears. Great work.

  • Bondpirate

    If real men don't cry then I am a sissy, for it took me a couple minutes to calm down and stop the tears. Phew!
    And for anyone who wants another laugh, go to youtube and watch this with the transcribe audio on!
    Trust me, give it a shot.

  • http://www.facebook.com/Justjay7 Jason Brierley

    Hilarious! It was quite dificult though to tell which was you! xD
    Had me laughing though.

  • haloofthesun

    Eh… Sean's impression isn't that good. Still entertaining though.

  • SignNinja

    Wow, I didn't think I could have that much Ah-Nold in one 7:07 period! It's just….too much!

  • sassamura

    USA just got destroyed in worldcup lol

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/Xemnas248 Kefka

    Spoony… wins!
    Astalatality!!!

  • Ashenge

    Okay, you want me to be blunt? You're an asshole. Please don't make a comment like that again.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Nic-Mapes/100000500981605 Nic Mapes

    XD Oh man, that was amazing. Who's the other Arnold?

  • RPGaholic

    You absolutely need Mark Brittan (a.k.a. The Chinaman) with his Arnold as Jesus routine spliced in there audiowise, or just bring him in for an Arnold 3-way (sans Maria).

  • sassamura

    Werdum defeated Fedor! Oh my God!

  • Dreammirror

    Ok this was some funny stuff! Watched it x3 times and it just keeps getting better! Totally need to see some more of this in the future-well done! :) Animation was awesome too; kudos.

  • starsteam

    This animation kind of seems like a clerks the animated series art work and that is why it wins on soo many levels.

  • maealoril

    This has to be one of the funniest f*ckin things Ive ever seen in forever. DanHarolds is my animation god and he should do this sooo much more often Pleeeaseeee

  • http://dragonacesg7.livejournal.com/profile Dragons_Dusk

    I think something in my brain just cracked… XD
    better remember to lock the basement door if that's where you keep you Arnold Spoony

  • http://www.youtube.com/egxtra John K. Spencer

    Words can't fully describe how freakin' hilarious this bit is! XD
    I need to listen to more Transmission Awesome…

  • undeadaRTie

    Oh god, I don't believe it's healthy to laugh as hard as I just did…

  • http://twitter.com/evan_kummer Evan Kummer

    so who's is doing the voices for black suit arnold and blue suit arnold?

  • Cthulhu07

    The black suit Arnold is voiced by Spoony and the one in the blue is Sean Fausz.

  • http://profiles.yahoo.com/u/7UGOVT2HFPGUE7QCANOUSTWDDA Phate

    I'm glad SOMEONE sees the awesomeness that is North Dakota.

    …

    *cough*

  • E-tank

    Ah, and i though my Arnold was good. Spoony, you just out-Arnolded me. I salute you, good sir.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Wiegeabo-Kilijabob/100000074745693 Wiegeabo Kilijabob

    I've lost track of the number of times I've watched this.

    It's almost criminal that no one else seemed to get the Arnold quotes, but it led to some great laughs, so all is forgiven. :D

  • BraveDave88

    “You are me and I am you!” Oh crap, Arnold's gotta fight his shadow self to awake to his Persona! :D

  • TheFeydakin

    MOAR!! MOAR!

  • Hoiness

    Awesome….just awesome!

  • thegodemperor

    LOL This was awesome! You need to do more!!!

  • ShadowNature

    People should watch this on youtube and turn on transcribe audio. It's really funny and reminds me of when spoony puts subtitles under ultimate warrior.

  • RPGaholic

    Let's see, most likely from the Strength arcana, due to his history in bodybuilding, what would his Persona be? Crom?

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Scott-Chamberlain/52501972 Scott Chamberlain

    LAMO, i just tried the subtitles it makes soooo much better.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Gerard-Mckay/1552902991 Gerard Mckay

    Spoony watch this on youtube with transcribe audio on. It can't translate you lol :P

  • mrtryker

    I completely lost my mind cracking up at the following-

    “You guys had the budget over there and you didn't get it passed so next year a lot of Americans are concerned what are you guys going to do searching for new sources of revenue?”

    (Spoony)Arnold: Uh, pass

    “You passed?”

    (Spoony)Arnold: Yah, the other one will answer it

    (Sean)Arnold: You're a dick!, what do you mean pass?, you can't pass! You are the governator of the California you do not pass!

    It was right at “you're a dick!” something about Sean's delivery after Spoony just…passed; fucking hilarious.

  • kallikanzarid

    Stolen from MadTV

  • Cthulhu07

    Oh no! Somebody call the cops! :D

  • brus

    Haha, didn't have expectations for this but it turned out to be damn hilarious, Spoony. Really good Arnold impersonations!

  • sprode

    That about sums up his tenure as the governator of Californ-ee-a, ironically.

  • Strelnikov

    Giving it to Maria up the pooper? Calling the Democrats “Girlie men?”

    Yep, that's the govenator of Kuliforniia, the guy I voted against (better Droid Davis than another Ronald Reagan.)

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Benjamin-Nadeau/100000234279157 Benjamin Nadeau

    Davis better than Reagan you can't be serious.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Benjamin-Nadeau/100000234279157 Benjamin Nadeau

    That's what I said! It was bound to happen sometime, mma has too many ways to lose.

  • Strelnikov

    Yes I am serious….Schwartzenegger is/was an actor as was Reagan; just because they were good at reading lines does not mean they are good at governing, and I haven't seen much from Arnie. Reagan, on the other hand, liked siccing the cops on Vietnam War protesters and hoping for a botulism outbreak when the SLA forced the state to give food to the poor in 1975. Davis may have been a non-entity who got throttled by Enron, but let us not forget that Darrel Issa wanted to be govenor, paid for the recall petition campaign, then got smashed by Arnie, a guy with no experience in politics. Between Schwartzenegger's star power and Davis' droidness it was a given that Hollywood would win, but then I challenge any politician to run against anybody famous; odds are it will be either a landslide for the famous person or a very close race if the politico is very good.

  • sassamura

    Hey SPOONY, time to make a new video, what about a non-scripted v-log commenting about E3 overall and maybe replying some of the critics of your fans about your coverage.

  • foodlespane

    He doesn't want to post it on the front page. I've watched it, and I think it's great, but that's just me. He really should post it instead of just leaving it on his twitter.

    God damn it, my headphone jack came out halfway through and I woke my sister up.
    Apparently hearing “SHE'S MY WIFE” at 3am warranted her slapping me.

  • Frazia

    Hahaha. Spoony your impression of Arnold is fantastic.

  • http://www.spazoutloud.com/ SpazOutLoud

    The comment about the Game of LIFE wheel cracked me up! ^_^

  • Disthron

    Awesome video, but witch one is spoony? The one with or without the cake at the beginning?

  • Emperor_Z

    Pretty sure he's on the left, without cake

  • mondomolesto

    Sup spoony, i just got out of the slammer. Pretty gay how some girls can say they're 19 and turn out to actually be 8, but w/e. Yours was the first site i checked out when i got out though! But, honestly, thats a pretty lame Kissinger impersonation.

  • Doomzorus

    That was really goddamn funny we really do need more… WE NEED MORE ARNOLD NOW!!!

  • http://twitter.com/Simbaka Thomas Punton

    Epic :)

  • Carteeg_Struve

    That was awesome. I can't wait for the second and third debates before Election Day.

    So far, I have to say I'm more inclined to vote for Arnold instead of Arnold now.
