More maltreatment of other people's work, but this time it's movies. To whit:
The Terminationer---A killer robot from the future wants to ice Shiro for some reason, but has a date with destiny at an convention for overweight SF fans.
The Yellow Brick Road Warrior---Dispatched by the Grand Wizard of Australia, Shiro finds himself driving a truck full of dirt through the outback, backed up by a tin man who's really heartless, a scarecrow who's REALLY stupid, and a lion who isn't a cowardthe author's favorite Samurai cat story, even though Tomokato ain't in it much.
Seven Samurai Cats---a lot more Tomokato here. Kurosawa with felinesTomokato and his brother Shimura recruit five other samurai kitties and tangle with Mexican bandits in a lesser-known action of the Sengoku Jidai.
Alienated---Tomokato and Shiro find themselves on a badly-furnished, monster-infested starship manned by geriatric character actors dying for a chance to direct. Horrible larvae chew their way through Bill Shatner's toupeeneed I say more?
It's a Terminated Life---Henry the Angel transports Tomokato to a alternate universe where the cat's never been born, Shiro's the Malevolent God-Emperor of the universe, and Will Rogers has met someone who doesn't like him.
