"All your base" is somewhat of a cult phrase on the internet. It comes from a Sega Genesis game called "Zero Wing" which was released approximately ten years ago. The opening scene has the poorly translated dialogue I reproduced in my last post. It is basically a joke that has gotten blown way out of proportion, although the grammar is so bad that it's funny. A quick Google will get you the opening movie.

All Your Base Are Belong To Us! (http://www.planettribes.com/allyourbase/) Video 1 is it, on the right. Video 2 isn't as good.
Yep, it was something which got blown out of proportion but it is oddly funny and gets in your head.. Base, base, base are! Move zig! Move zig!
Heh.. =D> \:D/ -Colt

I was going to write something witty. After the above sunk in, forget it. I may as well spell the stuff that made the northwest of the U.S.A. an icon--- kauphy. Starbucks be happy!

And that modest scene, gentlemen, is what started the "All your base" craze.

Here's a link to a site discussing the history of AYBABTU:
http://www.tvsian.com/hubert/article.php?sid=1
I first heard of the expression on the Planet Namek website back in 2000 (see the November 6-21 2000 entry about 1/5 of the way down the page). Such a popular phrase from such a modest and obsure scene from a relatively little known bad European translation of a Sega game.

It's kind of scary, like a virus. Reminds me of Skynet. Now that would be very ironic, AYB takes over the world and ends mankind.. -Colt

All your base are belong to us.
All your coffee are hot.
All your currency are American.
All your house built make your wood.
All your base are belong to me.
All your anti-Cassini protestor are insane.
All your NASAscam is insane.
Sorry, I can't help it. :P

Here is the translation of AYBABTU that I came up with:
In the year 2101, an interstellar war was beginning.
Captain: What happened?
Mechanic: We were bombed, Captain.
Operator: We're receiving a signal.
Captain: What?
Operator: Activating main screen.
Captain: It's you!
Cats: How are you gentlemen?
Cats: All of your bases now belong to us.
Cats: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What are you saying?
Cats: You have no chance to survive, no matter how well you can use your limited time.
Cats: Ha ha ha ha...
Captain: Have every "Zig" fighter take off.
Captain: Are you sure you know what you're doing?
Captain: Move the "Zigs".
Captain: For liberty and justice.
Anyone else care to try?

There have been a lot of spoofs of it but they're not very funny. This one was inspired by it though, and it's quite good:
