Defendor is a 2009 Canadian superhero comedy-drama film written and directed by Peter Stebbings, and starring Woody Harrelson, Kat Dennings, Elias Koteas and Sandra Oh. The story tells of an intellectually disabled man who adopts the persona of a real-life superhero named Defendor on a quest to find his arch enemy, Captain Industry. Defendor, Stebbings' feature film debut, was written in 2005 and filmed in January 2009 in Toronto and Hamilton, Ontario, and had its North American theatrical release on February 19, 2010. It has also been released to DVD on April 13, 2010.
Dr. Park (Sandra Oh), a psychiatrist, is interviewing Arthur Poppington (Woody Harrelson), a vigilante known as "Defendor", who tells about assaulting a police officer who claims to be working undercover. Dooney (Elias Koteas) is a corrupt detective who Defendor believes is in the employ of his nemesis, "Captain Industry". Arthur's mother left him as a child, dying of drug abuse later; his grandfather said "captains of industry" killed her. Having not been properly educated, Arthur mistakenly believes it to be one person.
GoBots was a line of transforming robot toys produced by Tonka from 1983 to 1987, similar to Transformers. Although initially a separate and competing franchise, Tonka's Gobots became the intellectual property of Hasbro after their buyout of Tonka in 1991. Subsequently, the universe depicted in the animated series Challenge of the GoBots and follow-up film GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords was established as an alternate universe within the Transformers franchise. While Hasbro now owns the fictional side of the property (character names, bios, storyline), the actual toys and their likenesses were only licensed from Bandai in the 80s, were not covered by the Tonka acquisition, and are not available for Hasbro use.
The Gobot toyline was based on figures produced by Popy of Japan (later Bandai), named Machine Robo. In another similarity to Transformers, Tonka decided to make the figures sentient robots, rather than human-piloted mecha as they had been in Japan, and divided them into two factions – the good Guardians and evil Renegades (although early figures were simply described as ‘Friendly’ or ‘Enemy’ on the packaging). The figures were all given individual names, in contrast to the simple designations they received in Japan.
Losing control, but I`m never give in
This is your game that I`m gonna win
Do it for kicks, so you play with fire
Say one word and I call you a liar
I`ll come so far to you, don`t know what you`ve gotta do
Your dream is a nightmare, you`ll live your life in
dispair
You just talk
But I hear no sound
You let it fall
The peices to be count
I`m waiting for a mistake
I`m waiting so I can break you
In the north, where the ice must melt
The soul was hard, so it must felt
It crossed your mind and spoke with evil tongue
Anything you do, will never last long
Say it`s the truth, when I know it`s a lie
Down at your back are you ready to die
Now the time has come for me
For believing all the things I see
Wish you had never been born
So I seperate the chaff from the corn
Feel my angel eye, drop down and start to die
