    Default HELP! What is this?

    My dad mentioned a scene potentially from a cartoon. He thinks it's Heavy Metal, but I don't agree.

    The scene is described as two societies at war (my dad says two separate planets). Rather than going at each other full-scale, each selects a single champion. The following scenes focus entirely on one hero as he trains in multiple forms of combat and is sculpted into a peak physical specimen. On the day the two are set to meet, the hero is boasting of his victory to come while a crowd cheers. Then he is crushed by an opening door of the ship transporting his opponent who steps off the transport and asks where his opponent is.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    I'm certain it is not Heavy Metal.

    Doesn't sound like anything I've seen in Heavy Metal.

    It obviously puts off an air of parody. So I'd assume it's either a comical cartoon or a lead-in to a not-so-serious animated movie.

    It has the Heavy Metal vibe, so I can understand why your dad would think it was from that movie. But it's not in any of the similar 70's-80's adult cartoons I can think of. Fire&Ice, Wizards, etc. Any idea how long ago this film/cartoon might have been watched? 10 years? 20?

    Well, the earliest I ever saw Heavy Metal, that was like 20 years ago. Since my dad assumes it was Heavy Metal, I would guess this scene he's picturing was from something around that time. Then again, his memories not always reliable.
