    Most Disturbing Animated Movie and TV Show

    Like I said before in the "Last movie you watched" thread, it would have to be Chirin no Suzu, or as it's called in English, Ringing Bell. This 1978 anime movie is about a cute and innocent lamb named Chirin (after the ringing sound from the plot-relevant bell around his neck) having fun...

    RIP Alan Thicke (1947-2016)

    To game show fans, Alan Thicke was also responsible for composing "Big Wheels", the original theme to Wheel of Fortune hosted by Chuck Woolery. Too bad the producers refuse to acknowledge anything from Wheel earlier than 1983. :mad:

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    They've been planning that for a while, actually. Hopefully we see Gru and his daughters take the focus once more.

    Yooka-Laylee: A love letter to 3D platform games

    Well, this is upsetting news for Wii U owners. That version will get cancelled because of "unforeseen technical issues" in favor of moving it to the Switch. Not surprised, considering the Wii U is pretty much dead at this point...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I only really see it getting a big marketing push around the Academy Award season, since this really feels like something that's there to win Oscars.

    Last movie you watched

    You can easily find it on YouTube, both subtitled and dubbed in English.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Third time's the charm for Moana, while trailing close behind is Office Christmas Party. The only other new release, the musical throwback La La Land, is at a pathetic 15th place, though it's getting rave reviews, so that's definitely something they'll be gearing up for the Oscars...

    Last movie you watched

    Just watched the 1978 Japanese animated movie Ringing Bell (a.k.a. Chirin no Suzu), and boy was it depressing and bleak as heck. :cry: It's essentially a tale of an adorable little lamb (Awwwwww, just look at him!) whose mother was savagely killed by a wolf, causing him to grow sick of being a...

    The most unbelievably awesome news ever... Ducktales

    According to several sources floating around, John Kassir will be the new voice for Scrooge. Hearing him in the Mickey Mouse short "Duck the Halls", he doesn't quite sound as gruff and authentically Scottish as Alan Young (being American and all), but he sounds close enough. He should be able to...

    New Mickey Mouse Shorts Announced

    We got some classic Donald mental breakdowns here, not on a level seen since Mickey and the Beanstalk. Nice appearances of Scrooge, Ludwig, and the boys, too. Wonder who's doing the voice of Scrooge? Doesn't sound like Alan Young, and the credits don't say. Could he be the new voice for the...

    The most unbelievably awesome news ever... Ducktales

    Though it looks a lot more refined. Outlines are much thinner, and the comic book look of the backgrounds is more apparent.

    Harvey Beaks: New Nick series

    Anyone else see the Christmas episode? It was a half-hour anthology using stop-motion for the framing segments, and was very beautiful and heartwarming. Much of it was told without dialogue, letting the quality of the musical score shine through. Technobear's score was my favorite, which showed...

    The most unbelievably awesome news ever... Ducktales

    A teaser of the DuckTales reboot has been released, along with another promo image. http://screenrant.com/ducktales-reboot-2017-preview-images/ Woo-hoo! Looks like Launchpad will be in the show after all, and hopefully he won't crash that Land Rover! And I just love how Webby is firing her...

    The What Are You Drinking Right Now? Thread

    I brewed a big pitcher of tea like I always do on the weekends (and yes, I drink it iced), but I'm using rooibos that I got on sale, which is a red tea grown in South Africa. I don't know what the Afrikaans word for delicious is, but that's what I'm calling it. :)

    Video: Pigs in Space “Alien: Look Who's Coming to Dinner”

    This certainly was a funny sketch that made great use of Pepe, and great use of adult humor with his reproductive organ puns, too. I wasn't bothered by the Alien homage at all, as there was no blood and therefore not too inappropriate for the Muppets. It's wonderful that we're getting new...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I doubt Sing is going to succeed. It looks like it's trying to ride the coattails of Zootopia, which could turn a lot of people off. Also, I really don't see how a singing competition will hold itself for 90 minutes.

    R.I.P. John Glenn

    Astronaut and senator John Glenn Jr., noted for being the first American to orbit Earth back in 1962 and the fifth person to journey into space, passed away of unknown causes today at 95 years old. So amazing that Glenn was willing to go back into space well into his golden years and become the...

    Nintendo makes the Switch!

    It's great to see all this promotion of Super Mario Run and the Switch among the mainstream media. If I had a credit card and a phone that could easily run SMR, I'd be all over it. :) It's really cool to see actual gameplay footage from BotW for the Switch, too. Looks more or less the same as...
