Episode one in an upcoming series created by Matt Burniston, who sez:

Set in the shadows of a gritty underworld, a war is brewing. The Mega Plush, a group of four plush toy vigilantes, are struggling against the uprising of the SOC (Society of Chimps) army. Good vs evil. Bear vs sock monkey. The question is “who has the stuffing to survive?”

A parody of T2: Judgement Day by Husky Jackal Theatre Company of Nashville Tennessee what sez:

We adhered to strict guidelines regarding the usage of Shakespeare’s works. Each line and phrase is taken directly from folios printed by or before 1685, and many extended sections of dialogue are composed of individual lines from separate works. Only proper nouns and pronouns were subject to change, as dictated by the plot. In these instances, all proper nouns are supplanted only by pronouns or other proper nouns, and all pronouns by other pronouns. In some cases, corresponding verb tenses are modified. These practices enabled us to accurately retell the story of Terminator 2: Judgment Day while remaining true to the words of Shakespeare in form (if less so in intent).

Currently overfunded on Kickstarter, the company has already staged the complete performance and will release a DVD this November.

Such is the power of Heisenberg that, when ‘Granite State’ – the penultimate episode of the series – referenced a fictional article in The New York Times by Andrew Ross Sorkin concerning Walter White’s link with Gray Matter Industries, Andrew Ross Sorkin of the actual New York Times wrote the ‘article’.

Little known except to a small cadre of industry insiders, the Schwartzes have been scrambling in recent weeks to keep a long-running secret from being revealed. Gray Matter’s stock has sunk over the last week as speculation has mounted that the company could be tied to a drug kingpin in Albuquerque who has made national headlines: Walter White, the former chemistry teacher turned international methamphetamine dealer known as “Heisenberg.”
