Thanks to everyone who wrote in. Yes, "All your base are blong to us" is a quote from Zero-Wing, a Japanese game for the Sega Genesis that was rushed through localization, apparently translated by one of the coders who was taking a night class in English.

The whole thing had been pretty much dormant for a few years until a huge thread started up on Tribalwar.com, with a lot of the graphic that ended up being incorporated into the flash movie linked to earlier (now on my site because of bandwidth limits on its other host).

Thanks for the help to all those who wrote in! I got about 12 emails all with the subject: "all your base are belong to us" which is just about as amusing as the rest of it.
