    The most unbelievably awesome news ever... Ducktales

    I really don't get why they'd bother casting anyone else. Disney isn't really one to juggle the official voice actors the way Warner Bros does with Looney Tunes. If it's to get a younger, fresher cast in out of fear that someone's going to pass on, I can see that. But most of them are still...

    Nature Cat: A New PBS Series from David and Adam Rudman

    I caught another episode, and it sounds like some of the Sesame Street puppeteers are lending their voices to this show. I definitely picked out Leslie in the episode where Hal got lost in the city. Leslie is no stranger to voice acting, as she was included in the dub of Gash Bell as well as...

    Your Thoughts: Star Wars Episode 7 - The Force Awakens *Contains Spoilers*

    Anyone who wants the next episode...well... Disney moved the release date up so instead of a year and a half between the films, it's a solid 2 years. Guess it's because they thought the Pre-Christmas release was what was strong with the Force Awakens. Hopefully this gives the filmmakers a tad...

    The "I'm amazed at how terrible this is" thread

    So, I found out that Oddity Archive has a secret page that has full examples and odd commercials used in some of his episodes. It has several of the ...ahem...best of the Karaoke episodes. Including a full version of the Macarena video that I can only describe as a horrifying live action...

    Worst/creepiest puppets/puppeteer work

    Dagnabbit Size Small!!!! To quote Timer, the Cheese Guy, "Look! A Wagon Wheel" Why the heck do they both sound like Beary Nice? And the puppets made out of wooden spoons is inspired. :rolleyes: And some more moments with the...ugh... Size Small oven mitts. That said, I was going to post...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    After seeing Brain's Brain and Sue Ellen Adds it Up, I have to admit, I didn't care for them as far as content goes. They're too different, and not in a good way. Not "In My Africa" bad, but still just not the kind of slice of life problem addressing the show is known for. I'm sure no one...

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4602 - Mucko Polo, Grouch Explorer

    Like I've said a few times, the HBO deal was clearly so HBO can bulk up its kid's line up for HBO family. It had shows over 15 years old and still on the channel for the sake of saying they have something there/cheap filler. So a simple HBO family channel schedule check shows that mornings...

    Sanjay an Craig: New Nick series

    I'm surprised it didn't end with Mr. Durdle still selling the Smoobies and just having to put a "may contain dog vomit" disclaimer. But I'll see Noodman's point about cat hairs in his jams. When you even visit someone who has a cat, you're going to end up eating cat hair no matter what. You...

    Should we get more hand drawn movies in our time?.

    Laika is clearly doing it for the art. Major props to them for that. The films do find an audience on home video and they're all instant cult films. While BoxTrolls didn't set the world on fire, the Funko Pops were impossible to find, and no doubt going for a fortune on the internet. I blame...

    The Clarence thread

    I really love seeing that these episodes don't all have to revolve around Clarence. Sumo would be the kind of kid to take care of a wild animal, especially ones that were that young. He really bonded with Hot Sauce, even though it wasn't mutual. Also, I forgot to mention "The Interrogation."...

    Ghostbusters 3 finally on the way? You decide!

    And for fans of the original film that have a crapload of money and space, the almost 400 dollar LEGO Ghostbusters fire house is now available.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4601 - Bedtime Story

    I feel anything shot in widescreen should be in widescreen and things that weren't shouldn't. The one I actually hate the most is when they stretch the sides of the screens. When the camera pans on those bad boys, I get motion sickness. But as I said years ago, when Between the Lions went HD...

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    Certainly there are cases of those who extort and exploit something like this, and frankly, they're worse than the accused. Not only are they taking advantage of a bad situation, but they also hurt the persecution. They take away their credibility, damaging the situation for the real victims...

    Should we get more hand drawn movies in our time?.

    100% agreed. Disney hitched the 2-D animation to a princess film (one made to pad out the ethnicity of their lobotomized merchandise line) and a franchise they destroyed with bad preschool programming. If we look at the last massive success Disney had with 2-D, it was Lilo and Stitch. An off...

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    We also have to add into one other factor. Is the artist's art reflective of what got them in trouble in the first place? Look at the controversy when the book Ender's Game became a (flop) movie. Now, while that particular book wasn't reflective of Card's viewpoints, most of his other works...

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    That's my sentiments exactly. Unlike most celebrities he was a huge bastion of morality that no one really had a problem with. Some celebs that take a moral highground on whatever issue come off completely d-baggy. Look at Kirk Cameron or some generic leftist celebrity that takes up a cause...

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4601 - Bedtime Story

    I don't get why more don't embrace vertical letterbox. DB Kai's reruns on Toonami are letterboxed to keep the TV aspect ratio for one. I hate how FXX's Simpsons reruns are crammed into wideframe, as it cuts things off at the bottom and sometimes stretches them. I get that most people with...

    The Clarence thread

    In an episode that almost seems to channel a certain episode of Recess, one litigious parent ruins the playground for everyone. And true to form, Clarence is the only one that doesn't let it keep him down. Or Belson, for that matter, who doesn't care. Love how the kid kept popping his (ahem)...

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    There's a mark difference between celebrities and politicians. Sure, Bill Clinton beat the rap from his affairs, but he's essentially the only one (still alive) that's been forgiven by the Dems. John Edwards did something despicable, and he's dead to the party. Yet, Newt Gingrich did the same...

    The "Adventure Time" Thread

    I rewatched Blank Eyed Girl. How the heck did they get "Butt stuff" past the censors?
