About
Foo-La-La! is a rare example of a fanimutation not made with Macromedia Flash. Instead, Indogutsu chose to create it using ASCII's RPG Maker 2000 (RM2K) software, which allows the user to control all aspects of producing a role-playing game in the style of the 16-bit (SNES/Genesis) era. Because of RM2K's limitations, Foo-La-La only presents pictures without animating them, making it nothing more than a "slideshow with sound" in Dwedit's words. Still, it might be worth a download because it takes Rip Slyme's 2004 hit "Dandelion" and turns it into an extravaganza of mondegreens and SNES game screenshots.
The original RM2K version of Foo-La-La is hosted by Gaming Ground Zero, a site dedicated to quality games and resources for RPG Maker 2000. To download, click on the logo image, then "Games" in the left sidebar once you get to the main page, and finally select "Foo-La-La" from the drop-down menu. Like all things made using RM2K, Foo-La-La requires the RM2K Run-Time Package (RTP) in order to run. However, due to legal complications with ASCII, you won't find the link to the RTP on this wiki. Perhaps a Google search will help you find what you're looking for?
On March 30, 2005, a Flash-based remake of this music video was completed by Quietust, a regular contributor to this wiki and Dwedit's message board. Dwedit's response: "I think it is now in good enough shape to be set loose onto Newgrounds, where it will promptly be blammed."

Audio Details
- "Dandelion" was released by Rip Slyme as a single in the summer of 2004.
- The preloader music is a crappy MIDI loop composed by Indogutsu Tenbuki for "New Ordeals," one of his older RM2K projects that has since been discontinued. The song actually sounds halfway decent on his own computer, but...
Trivia
- This animutation contains several references to other animutations.
- Elvis Not Included: Barry White, Yourself Cola, Batboy, Fear the Chipmunk Samurai
- Team Rocket's Journey Through Silicon Valley: "Sports Yeah!" Magazine
- Dan Hibiki For Prezidénté: "I want a Whummo!"
- Suzukisan: Ketchup Red Shoe
- Hyakugojyuuichi: Middle finger "touching the ray," Colin Mochrie's face in the sun
- The "Director: Hiroi Sakai" picture is supposedly a screenshot of the credits sequence from "Pokemon Ruby & Sapphire" for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance. In reality, there is no such a person as Hiroi Sakai; Indogutsu just used that name because it sounded like what Rip Slyme was singing. The actual director of "Pokemon Ruby & Sapphire" is Junichi Masuda, who also acted as an assistant in the game's scenario, programming, and music departments. Indogutsu believes in giving credit where credit is due.
- The original RM2K version of this music video has three options on the end screen: Replay, Exit, and "Scroll," a never-before-seen feature which allows the viewer to freely scroll through every picture in the movie, taking as much time as needed. In the Flash remake, the "Scroll" feature has been replaced by a scroll bar on the bottom of the screen, similar to the ones seen in JamezBond and Suzukisan.
- When Chester Cheetah appears, he is supposed to be wailing on his guitar, though an optical illusion may suggest he is doing something rather different.
- In the third and final appearance of Vary Widely, she is quoting the song "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tommy James and the Shondells (and later re-popularized by Tiffany).
- In one of the frames, it is jokingly mentioned that Neil Voss and Neill Corlett started a band with Neil Cicierega. Neil Voss is a video game music composer who has worked on the soundtracks for a few Nintendo 64 games, while Neill Corlett helped fan-translate several SNES games and created a few different game music sound file formats.
- During the closing credits frame, you can hear a randomly-chosen Homer Simpson sound bite. There are eight in all:
- "('19.') Hit me. ('20.') Hit me. ('21.') Hit me. ('22.') D'oh!"
- "Mmmm... 64 slices of American cheese..."
- "Marge, are we Jewish? ('No, Homer.') Woo-hoo!"
- "Gasp! That dog has a puffy tail! Hee hee hee hee hee! Here, Puff! Here, Puff! Hee hee hee hee hee!"
- "Hey, can you take the wheel for a second? I need to scratch myself in two places at once."
- "Yeah, Moe, that team sure did suck last night. They just plain sucked! I've seen teams suck before, but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks who ever sucked."
- "Hello, is this President Clinton? Good! I figure if anyone knew where to get some Tang, it'd be you. Shut up!"
- "It was the most I ever threw up, and it changed my life forever." (The "Replay" chime will sound afterwards if this quote is chosen.)
- As of July 13, 2005, this fanimutation is tied for first with Hyakugojyuuichi Forever on the list of Fanimutations sorted by Length.
- Despite its title, new issues of Weekly Carrot are published monthly, according to the December 2004 issue's cover. The date is a reference to how original version of this fanimutation was released in December of 2004.
