In reference to the controversies about the Oscars, Aloha, and Gods of Egypt and the like, I'm at least glad that there are movies with an all black cast for an all black audience. Problem is, they certainly deserve better. All they have is Barber Shop and Madea movies, and when they get their...

Actually... Kevin Munroe did direct that actually good fourth TMNT movie, so I have faith in that. I always found it to be the only one of the bunch to be almost as good as that first movie. Not quite, but still better than the pandering to cartoon fans and parental groups Secret of the Ooze...

I agree to that. I've seen other third party CGI films look far worse. It clearly doesn't have the budget a Dreamworks for Pixar film would have, but that's because they aren't quite as big. Obviously. I just hope the film opens wide enough for me to be able to find it without much...

It's not that I never had faith in this series, but they took a concept that could have easily tired out after a few episodes and ran with it for a full two seasons. Gimmick sitcoms tend to either do really well or get easily forgotten. Even if you have a strong enough concept, how is it going...

The Tomb Raider and Resident Evil movies actually proved to be successful. A new series of Tomb Raider movies is currently in production. The Mario movie was doomed to fail because the technology and budget for a direct adaption just didn't exist then, nor did any knowledge of the characters...

They air Tom and Jerry and the original Scooby-Doo. Don't know if they still have The Flintstones, but I did catch that they had it on at 1 Am for a while.

A couple over the weekend on Cartoon Network. Robot Chicken did a Muppet Babies skit which, like most Robot Chicken skits ends with one of them dying. They were pretending to play King Kong and Kermit falls to his death. And I really think there's a lost opportunity to make a blatant critique...

TMS is a big shoe to fill. Even Jim Henson himself couldn't repeat that success. The biggest hit the Muppets had in the 80's was a cartoon series, one that proved to be pretty toyetic, which was such a powerful success that even today its influence is still felt. That is, of course, "Muppets"...

There's just something special about the two. I almost wish they reunited for a Grumpy Old Men sitcom remake (considering who played them in the movie). Most shows tend to improve after the first season, yet shows that have stronger first seasons than subsequent ones don't last too long. And...

Well, to be fair, PPG stopped airing on Boomerang even before the Boomerang channel's reboot. Maybe last September or so? I have major issues with that network even just before the rebrand. I really hate how they air TTG and, while I do love the series, Gumball when they're both on the main...

I had a feeling that was the case, though I left it out. Of course, if they didn't market the big twist ending of Genisys into all the trailers and promotional materials, it probably would have got a better audience reaction. That said, I do like Ahhnold. I somehow really enjoy Jingle All the...

Well, one's a surprisingly deep and thought provoking film set in a world of deconstructing funny animal tropes and the other is essentially bad Hunger Games fan fiction crossed with the description on the back of a Cliffnotes for Ayn Rand's Anthem. You do the math. I'd say this franchise is...

It got a mid-mid-mid season slot. Like just before everything's May finale. Something tells me it's not quite as successful as they state. The remake felt like something from an alternate 1990's. It isn't so much for me that it's a remake of The Odd Couple, it's just a lousy sitcom on all...

UGH! They're making another Terminator film. They really haven't learned their lessons, have they? It had 2 good movies and then they made a third one no one liked, a fourth one nooooo one liked or bought the merchandise for, and a fifth one that mostly no one liked. And yeah, a TV show that...

I find it odd that WB/CN is actually giving more love to Courage than it is even to the original Powerpuff Girls show, especially considering a new PPG series is due in a couple weeks. Courage has a lot of runtime on Boomerang. I need to check, but last I did it had a full two hour block every...

While I haven't seen this episode, that's been my biggest problem with the season so far. Film segments have to take up the slack of the alphabet segments that get cut for time. The Elmo segments are clearly there for returning audiences as first time audiences don't know they're supposed to...

That's another thing I feel the old schoolers forget. Sesame Street had a massive demographic shift since the 1969 premiere. While, granted, Big Bird was originally designed to be something of an ersatz Bullwinkle, he eventually turned into the endearing, inquisitive 6 year old we're more...

As much as I like the idea of "The Splat" it does that thing cable channels do with reruns of shows that I hate. Taking a fraction of the episodes and just rerunning them on an endless loop. They seem to go through every Hey Arnold available in a matter of three or four weeks, while several...

Spoke too soon about the Saturday Mornings. :sympathy: There are new Steven Universes on the way, it's just a matter of when CN wants to air them. I'm sure you've all seen the leaked footage, but I'm putting it in spoiler mode anyway, Yeah. I still don't get why Hasbro put their faith in...

It's because the internet exists and these crazy idiots manage to find each other and are comfortable saying idiotic bullcrap until they band a group of uninformed idiots enough to become a vocal minority of insane, uneducated, stubborn little punks who become the victims if you call them out on...
