action figure cinema

Future generations will inquire. Was it really a cartoon inspired by action figures or vice versa? Could it really have been a film series inspired by cartoons inspired by action figures in some grotesque alchemy of thought? Trembling, will the inhabitants of this future look into their neon-lined magnifying glasses, look into the mind-numbing morass of early twenty-first century culture and will they wonder what came first? The lunchbox? The t-shirt? The video game? The complimentary tie-in dinner set? Will they look into this culture and will it look back into them?
