Character Video Transcript

{Page Title: Homerun Hitter!} {Place: The Field}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, hello. Greetings, one and everyone. Welcome to me... Homestar! ...Runner! Homestar Runner. Um... what else? I pretty much run the show around here. I date the only girl, I have the only propeller cap. {propeller cap twirls} And can run, and jump, and kick the fastest, highest and like nobody's business. If I had to pick one word to describe myself, it would probably be... Fluffy Puff Marshmallows. Or Homestar. Either one, really. They both fit.

STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Don't forget doofus/moron/um...Lionel Richie. {The last word Strong Bad says is selected at random}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, that too. That's another good one. In closing, I look good in red. Check it out. {turns around, sings while shaking his rear} Buttdance, buttda-a-ance!

Straight-on Madness!

Homestar's eyes

• Homestar's eyes are quite strange. There are two theories about how they work:
  • Sometimes they seem to move around his head. Most of the time they're like a flounder's eyes, but they switch sides of his face whenever he turns. In the Old Intro 2, you can sort of see Homestar's eyes moving as the camera circles around him. Also, in Theme Song Video, the currently absent toon Marshmallow's Last Stand, the old version of In Search of the Yello Dello and the Homestar Screensaver, you can see his face from the front, which further lends credence to this theory.
  • But other times, like when he's talking to Bubs at his concession stand, the camera will switch views instantly from outside the stand to inside. This gives the idea that Homestar actually has four eyes, two on each side.
• His puppet and his two figurines, on the other hand, have eyes stuck on one side of his head. Occasionally you can get a peek at the other side of Puppet Homestar's face, which looks pretty creepy without any eyes.
  • The Brothers Chaps actually made the eyes velcro, so they can be switched if necessary.
• His eyes work in similar fashion to Mickey Mouse's ears, which are the same regardless of the angle they are seen from.
