HBO moves on after Sopranos - New show is about a man with a huge super powered penis

HBO’s Hung

That makes me wonder if there are any shows out there about women with huge super powered vaginas.

Well there was an anime about a woman superhero who only wore a mask and her signature move was smothering enemies between her legs…

Oddly not an erotic anime. It just had a weird premise.

Hehe, so there’s something out there after all. Why am I not surprised it was an anime? :wink:

There were a couple of films- Teeth and (if you count speech as a superpower) Chatterbox.

This show was announced back in April. One of the first comments on it said:

And somebody else wrote that with Thomas Jane in the lead role, everyone forever after will refer to him in the usual way [name (recent movie)] as Thomas Jane (Hung).

And even the inadvertent mentions will bring snickering.

From the front page of Google.

Brilliant publicity move or self-defeating joke that will make the show old before it’s even aired?

And, of course, every Doper man is going to claim it’s a biography about him! :smiley:

Who says only men are obsessed with penis size? One of the creators and the HBO executive who greenlighted it are women.

Did they say what’s super about the guy’s penis? Just superhuman sexual potency, or does it have paranormal powers? Is it superstrong and invulnerable, so he can ram it through solid steel? Does it emit energy beams?

Hollywood is not an equal opportunity employer. By and large, the power brokers are men, and very often men with issues about their dick size.

In one of his few routines that actually made me laugh, Dane Cook jokes about wanting a penis that could shoot laser beams. (He claims his balls would flash purple when he ran out.) And I’ve always been curious if Mr. Fantastic could stretch his penis as well as his limbs (this was actually joked about in the film- “Is it true Mr. Fantastic can stretch every part of his body?” “Well, he’s always seemed a little limp to me.”). The ideas of penile superpowers are so intriguing that whatever the show’s character can actually do with his will probably be lame by comparison.

Cocks with frickin’ laser beams attached to their heads?

In the “Ultimates” version of the FF it’s sort of open to question whether Mr. Fantastic even has a penis (or an anus for that matter) after his “change”. In dealing with the practical limitation of having functioning organs and being able to “stretch” pretty much all his internal organs are gone and his metabolism is not even really carbon based anymore.

Sure he could “make” a penis appendage, but it’s unlikely he has testicles or sperm.

Wasn’t there a TV series on MTV some years ago about some guy with a superhuge schlong? Or maybe it was the “Jackass” team using a prosthetic. I only saw it once–if you can believe this–in a TGI Friday’s, and the sound was muted.

There’s also the Kafkaesque story “Hung Like an Elephant,” by Joseph F. Pumilia and Steven Utley. (From way back in the 1974 anthology Alternities, edited by David Gerrold.)

The protagonist wakes up one day, looks down and…

Spends the rest of his life suppressing vaguely incestuous thoughts about his sister until his dad pelts him with an apple, which lodges in his skin, then rots and eventually kills him?

(What? Why’s everybody looking at me?)
