I just realized something. I am shocked that a bootlegged dub of The Angry Birds Movie didn't become a hit (or at least forced viewing) in North Korea. Seriously. It would have fit their propaganda narrative so well. They could have used the Pigs to represent Western ideals and Capitalistic...

I don't think audiences would have loved a Muppet insider headed clone of the original show either. It may have got the conservative values crowds in for a bit, but after a while it would be all "they did this better in the 70's" and they'd just rewatch the three released box sets. Audiences...

That's very painful to hear. No wonder the theme wasn't on the last Old School DVD.

And CinderElmo was a much better project anyway. Elmopalooza was more about it being their anniversary project (remember when they had those?) and focused more on "look how many celebrities we can shove in," which I'd say should have been a sign of things to come in retrospect. But there's one...

That said, there's a clear reason why Fish Hooks went on as long as it did. Disney somehow loves the barely talented cartoonist behind it. That's the only reason we got Pickle and Peanut.

This is something I've been meaning to talk about, but have forgotten to post it until now. Keebler has re-continued more flavors of E.L. Fudge cookies besides the standard butter cookie with fudge and double stuff butter cookie with fudge. Though they've only gone so far as to reintroduce...

I get the feeling it could have been better had it not been rushed into production. I get the feeling that once the Tickle me Elmo craze set in and Elmo's World started appearing on the show, Sony and Sesame Workshop said "let's make a movie toy commercial," and rushed one out as soon as they...

Looked it up and it was one of several studios used in the production of Thundercats. Toei actually wasn't one of them. But I remember reading the name of the studio somewhere about the new Thundercats. I'm just glad they had enough money in the budget for a guest animation studio. Anyway, I...

Disney has been pulling production caps for years. Let's not forget that Darkwing Duck ended with a mediocre episode about being frozen in amber. Or rather Dinosaur Pancake Syrup.

Let's not forget his most memorable sitcom role, the detestable Mr. Carlin from The Bob Newhart Show. One of my favorite older sitcoms, by the way.

I'm glad that two of the ones I recently missed due to not having HBO will be that soon on the schedule. I keep hearing good things about "Sesame Ocean" and kinda felt left out.

Didn't they also do the also cancelled, but more recent Thundercats series. Thought they did. Anyway I'm equally impressed by the fact that someone was able to do such a great forgery of Early Dragon Ball for the flashback segment. The fact they chose a Japanese animation firm to animate an...

Much easier to say which ones I hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed Cartoon Network's originals with the exception of a handful. It's too easy to say the live action abominations, Annoying Orange, or Johnny Test. But yeah... I like most of the shows from Dexter's Lab to We Bare Bears and most of...

Mark Chang would have cost more money. Heck, they got Scott Baio to play human Foop. Clearly low budget affairs. And still a heck of a lot nicer than what Disney did to Inspector Gadget. Even the cheapquel of that film was a better film. And need I mention how the execs at Nick ruined the...

Okay. So apparently, Bebop, Rocksteady, and Krang were going to look a lot different in Out of the Shadows. And by "A lot different" I mean a LOT worse. Krang looks like a mix between a de-shelled crab and a mutilated fetus, Rocksteady looks worse than what you could ever say about how the...

I'll give them this. Unlike the big Hollywood live action versions, at least they got the concept right. Though seeing that Daran Norris essentially looks like Timmy's Dad, his performances pretty much make these movies hundreds of times better than they could have been. And at least they...

UGH! Spoke too soon. Now I can barely even find Kubo, even at two of the three theaters I frequent. But there's still room in one of them for Dinesh D'Souza's "masterpiece" about how terribly Hillary is because the Democratic party was racist at some point. CLEARLY made before the opposing...

Kubo has a Burger King kid's meal tie in, so at least it's more approachable. It really stinks that Laika's movies are so underappreciated until they hit home video of some kind. They really seem to be killing themselves with these great practical effects when even the cheapest of CGI films...

That really is a shame because I really liked that VA. Sparky was a stupid character, but I kinda liked some of the episodes about him. Luckily, at least the VA is still on the show. One of the Fair Bears, actually, and I hope to see them back because they were the only thing good about this...

This one threw me for a loop and caught me off guard... An animated batman film based on the original 1966 TV series starring West and Ward, but also Juilie Newmar reprising her role as Catwoman. Wow. That's such an unexpected surprise.
