    Questions about anything

    Yeah, I don't see that as that different from when the Game Boy was released. You can just do more with those sorts of things. And commutes that use public transportation are brutal, even if just used recreationally in the middle of a weekend afternoon. Waiting sucks. Every time I used to...

    Nintendo announces new games at E3 with Henson puppets

    Surprised no one mentioned this, but, Nintendo put those Henson made Star Fox Puppets to good use for their latest Star Fox game commercial.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I'd never touch a can of hot dog meats no matter how reputable the store I'd buy it from would be. Not even Trader Joe's. Though I am surprised that Dollar Tree's stuff is mostly discontinued product lines that aren't too close to expiration. And a lot of the frozen food items they sell are...

    SSt Characters on Last Week Tonight With John Oliver

    I'm more impressed that they referenced the Lead resource video. Then again, now that Sesame Street is co-funded by HBO, I'm sure they have access to a lot of Sesame Street's backlog for cases like this. And yes, Eric is doing a great job as Oscar. I'm sure he was more available than Carol in...

    The Funny Videoe Thread

    Here's something right up everyone's ally... Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche read a Pulp Fiction Scene as Pinky and the Brain (linked to link because of language...yeah, they say most of the cuss words) Very 90's. Narf.

    The Rick and Morty thread

    Looks like half of Rick and Morty's creative team, that is to say Dan Harmon, is working on an adult "Thomas the Tank Engine" type parody series for FX Sounds good as long as it keeps him freed up to make more Rick and Morty episodes, and as long as FX doesn't pull a "Cassius and Clay" and...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Yeah. Family Dollar is meh. I've yet to see a Dollar General, but the FD's in my area were all hideously messy. I'd say that they used to have some good bargain toys here, cuz you know, toy collector over here. Then they just started becoming almost drug store-ian in their markup. Some of...

    Questions about anything

    Someone must've misinterpreted his scraggly hairs as eye lashes somehow. Maybe thought he had the same protruding buck teeth as Clarence. When Jake the dog was talking, the animators gave him Finn's teeth. Of course Uncle Grandpa is very much a depending on the storyboard show. One...

    The "Adventure Time" Thread

    Notice that one of the Rainicorns who wanted to get the Crystal sandwhich was played by Fred Stoller. In other words, Chuck, the Evil Sandwich Making Guy. Or in Bob's Burgers turn, Tina in an episode with the sex shop owner. Maybe it's a Bob's Burgers bias, but my two favorite of Jake's kids...

    Questions about anything

    This segment was from a recent episode of Uncle Grandpa where he was presenting the "Grampies" awards (all to his own show) while current CN characters and a couple classic ones looked on angrily at losing. Of course, with the exception of the Powerpuff Girls (which had the new series look and...

    Speaking of Jungle Book, It had the second highest April opening, only behind a Fast and Furious installment, and the third biggest of the year so far, behind Batman vs Superman and Deadpool. Barbershop opened a distant second with The Boss and Batman V Superman trailing. The two new movies...

    Uncle Grandpa

    Considering the episode was written by one of the former Spongebob writers (that everyone hated), I wouldn't doubt that was totally intentional. Also notice the Bears weren't present either. Don't know why. But they had Dexter and DeeDee as well as Samurai Jack and Mac. Nice to know the...

    Uncle Grandpa

    Well, Uncle Grandpa just trolled the Cartoon Network audience with the Grampie awards. Nice to see him manage to squeeze in brief crossovers with most of the other CN characters. A couple even got some dialogue in, and a brief reference to the Say Uncle episode of Steven Universe...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I've never had a Dollar General in these parts, is it similar to Family Dollar? I've never really liked them that much. And frankly, for some place that's supposed to be cheaper than everywhere else, their brand name toys cost more than what you'd pay anywhere else, even TRU. Dollar Tree I'm...

    And one time Muppet Central member Artie Espisito was "additional voices" too. The film is pretty good. Script could have used some more polish, and pacing wise some scenes should have been a little shorter, some a little longer. It's probably the best of the live action fairy tales based on...

    I always felt it was a shame what went down with Louis Prima's widow. Ed Gilbert and Jim Cummings had the same chemistry as Harris and Prima. You can really hear it in the "Friends for Life" song from the Disney Afternoon soundtrack. Jim really had a ball playing the character, and he even...

    Danger Mouse and Powerpuff Girls both announced for comebacks

    I was kinda disappointed the Tiara didn't do more, but I don't think we're going to get the darkest and most sinister of Him this early in the series. Even when I saw his shadow when the Mayor was talking about how he got the thing from a beautiful lady (or whatever he said), I gave out a quiet...

    From what I understand, the original Jungle Book story was supposed to be closer to the book (but deviated in its own way), but the original treatment was dark. Disney really didn't like the direction the film was taking, and the film's original story editor left. When Walt put together a new...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    Also Another Jumanji Movie. Supposedly a remake, though I never call something based on a book a "remake" unless it's setting out to remake the film exactly. As in, I don't consider any of the Dracula movies or Sherlock Holmes variations so much remakes as retellings and reimaginings because...

    Netflix, do your stuff! The Magic School Bus gets new series.

    I'd love it if they'd do an episode about different car engines, actually. Have them talk about gas burning and hybrid cars, as well as alternate fuel sources. There's so many advances in science since the show, the books even, began. Whatever can be said about the necessity of certain...
