Schwarzenegger’s Cartoon Reinvention
Posted on Mar 30, 2011

Deadline Hollywood:

Called The Governator, it is a version of Schwarzenegger after he has left the Governor’s office and becomes a crime fighter, Lee told EW.

2. It take a real man to recognize when he is a Caricature of a cartoon...

I wonder if they will arrange for him to meet Steampunk Palin, or a character I think of as Batshit Woman?

4. Oh my. I read it too quickly and thought I saw this:

"...and a closet full of “Super Sluts” at his disposal."

5. Had he been a good Governor or even a popular one

it might be interesting. Since he was massively unpopular and horrible at the job, one might call the whole idea insulting to the people of California.
