    R.I.P Bernie Mac

    He was so young! That's really sad. I heard that he was sick, but I had no idea he was gravely ill.

    2 Classic Hanna Barbera films finally come to DVD

    I remember watching these on Cartoon Network as a kid. I recall really enjoying them, but I don't think I'll be able to get these on DVD... Not yet at least.

    2008 Olympics

    I actually teared up while watching that little boy who walked with the Chinese team and hearing about his story. That's an inspiration! Go USA and go everyone! I'm rooting for the little nations that only have one or two people competing. I like rooting for the underdog. I really loved the...

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    It would be excellent if Disney would show the Muppet Show on TV again, though sadly, I have a feeling that is as likely as Vault Disney coming back to TV.

    Bolt, from the S*N*O*W*T*H Rant Files

    Meet the Robinsons was an enjoyable film with a sincere message. Yes, I will admit that some parts of the story or the way the movie came across were all over the place, but the morel of the story was sincere. And that sincerity is a big part of what is missing in animation today. Yes, every...

    Bolt, from the S*N*O*W*T*H Rant Files

    I think that depends on the studio or the production quality. Yes, quite a lot of anime is as you say, but to group an entire country's animation into one category isn't fair. That's like saying "I don't like American animation cause shows like Family Guy and South Park are so limited in...

    Bolt, from the S*N*O*W*T*H Rant Files

    As for the movie Bolt, I have to say that once upon a time, I was looking forward to this movie. When I heard that Chris Sanders was involved in this new movie and saw the concept art, I was thrilled. But then Chris Sanders was tossed aside and the trailer came out... Ugh. Now I can say that I...

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    If they were to put this special on DVD, they might as well put it on the new movie, if and when it comes out. But to put it on any classic material would be disappointing. Not that it would stop me from buying the DVD, but it really wouldn't fit.

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    I don't know... I think kids will watch just about anything. I showed my 12/13 year old cousin a few episodes on my Muppet Show DVD, and while she was somewhat skeptical at first, she seemed to enjoy it. At least she didn't get up and walk away (which is saying something for her). I think that...

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    I actually thought that Ashley's chemistry with Kermit, at least when they were just talking, was the best Muppet/person interaction in the special. I'm not sure why... I suppose it didn't seem as forced? They just seemed like friends chatting. And of all the musical numbers, it also seemed the...

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    The biggest disappointment of this special was that it was a waste of time. I'm not saying it was bad or that it wasn't at least somewhat enjoyable, because it had some really cute moments. In fact, the Disney Channel stars weren't awful. Not bad enough to make me change the channel, at least...

    Muppets on Today 7/29

    Miss Piggy and Kermit are on the 4th hour of the Today Show this morning. I'm watching it now and they already made a brief appearance, but I think they'll be on again in a few minutes. Sorry if this information has already been posted. I just wanted to give you all the heads up!

    Wall-E: The thread

    Dinosaur is not a Pixar film. It's Disney. No Pixar involvement that I know of.

    Wall-E: The thread

    I just got back from seeing Wall-E and I really enjoyed it. I knew I would enjoy it, but I have never been disappointed by a Pixar feature film. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised with how the romantic aspects of the film were handled. For weeks I kept thinking to myself, "How is this going...

    Did Jareth change Toby's diaper?

    Though the hero's journey archetype has been overdone, if you think about it, almost every movie, especially "kid's movies" or epic movies (Like Lord of the Rings or Star Wars) follow it. It's hardly even intentional. I don't think anyone ever sets out and says "Okay, this has to follow this...

    Did Jareth change Toby's diaper?

    Have you all ever heard of the Joseph Campbell hero's journey? In almost every story that has a protagonist, that character will go through a journey from fall to adventure, crossing the threshold, an ordeal, and return. There is more too it than that, so I recommend reading further into the...

    New Inspector Gadget series coming in 2009

    Weird. I hope it works out and stays true to the original.

    Did Jareth change Toby's diaper?

    Something I noticed is that Jareth was really careless with Toby. When he threw Toby around during the Magic Dance number, he didn't even bother to catch him at least once, leaving a goblin to catch him instead. This could imply that he did not hold Toby in high regards. Though this could also...

    What's your first Muppet memory?

    My first Muppet memories are very blurred together. I grew up watching reruns of Muppet Babies, The Muppet Show, and specials such as The Frog Prince on Nickelodeon. Though I also remember watching Sesame Street and having a plastic Big Bird figure. I would play with him in the bathtub and a...
