Heavy Metal 2000

A 2000 sequel to the Heavy Metal animated anthology film. It doesn't have much to do with it, though.

Tropes used in Heavy Metal 2000 include:

Actor Allusion: In the 1980s TV series V, one of the important characters is a battle-hardened Resistance leader fighting against the Visitors, a group of extraterrestrial lizard-people. In this movie, the main villain is a psychotic human warrior fighting with a group of lizard-men as their leader (see below). Both characters are named Tyler, and both roles are played by Michael Ironside.
- Older Than They Think: The character was named Tyler in the original miniseries the movie was adapted from, The Melting Pot, over ten years before the movie's production.
Ax Crazy: Tyler. Justified by the fact that the key to the Chamber of Immortality has that effect on whomever owns it.
- Plus, Word of God says that the mineral he finds at the begining is actually the Loc-Nar and drives him to madness.
Breaking the Fourth Wall: When Julie and her sidekick are chasing Tyler through Neo Calcutta space station, there is an advertisement briefly visible for Six Foot One And Worth The Climb, the autobiography of Julie's voice actress.
Conspicuous CG: At the climax of the movie, the Chamber of Immortality is clearly not rendered in the same 2D animation used for the rest of the film, nor is Odin, once he unmasks himself.
The Danza: Julie is voiced by Penthouse Pet and B-movie queen Julie Strain. The character is even designed to look like her.
Kill Him Already: Subverted when the heroine displays some common sense - as soon as she sees the Big Bad that nuked her town, she opens fire on him. In a bar filled with 'civilians' (think Mos Eisley's Cantina.) With a Laser Minigun. Unfortunately, it turns out that with the immortality water, he's Not Quite Dead.
Make Sure He's Dead: Tyler provides the page's quote.
The Mole: Odin reveals himself as such, just after Julie kills Tyler.
People Jars: Tyler gets his immortality water by distilling it from the fluids of the bodies of people captured from Julie's home planet.
Pound of Flesh Twist: The Man Behind the Man gets his immortality... of course, he then gets sealed in a chamber that can only be opened from the outside with a key lost in the depths of space.
Sex Bot: Malfunctioning, of course, and about as sexy as Curly Howard.
Shout-Out: There are two shout-outs to the original Heavy Metal movie. First, the Chamber of Immortality is located on a planet in the Taarakian star system (Taarna, the heroine of the final Heavy Metal story, is the last of the Taarakian bloodline). Second, the scene in which Julie disrobes, swims across a pool of water, and gets dressed up for battle is taken directly from the original movie, in which Taarna does the same thing.
Stripperiffic: A good number of females. It is Heavy Metal though...
You Kill It, You Bought It: Tyler kills the king of a tribe of lizard people and takes his place as their leader.
