    Video: "The Muppets" Official ABC Trailer

    Those who want exactly what they had in their childhood would complain about anything no matter what. If there's anything that's changed the most significant, it's themselves. The tastes and preferences of an adult are completely different form what they were when they were younger. Even if...

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

    Not really the point I was making. That artwork is atrocious! It's bad enough to instigate violence. Now, the side rant about toy guns and guns in fiction is always the same for me... maybe if toys and cartoons had a lobbyist group as strong as the NRA, they wouldn't be the easy to win...

    The Clarence thread

    The Sqawk Back or Yak Back or whatever it was called certainly had me fall out of my chair. And of course Jeff is the kind of person to use KraGl on his Legos.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Yeah, but Transformers and G.I. Joe have broader appeal. They're free to be big budget blockbusters because they're successful. Had the first TF movie bombed, things would be different. They'd probably try again with a different team. Probably just move back to just television animation if...

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

    Okay. To combat the fact a kid was shot by a police officer for having a toy gun (yeah...right... that's why he was shot), a comic book advocating a toy gun buy back program has will be distributed to children. While whatever debate this could spark, or or against, there's something horribly...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The real problem is this... You know why Transformers, G.I. Joe, My Little Pony, and Littlest Pet Shop are the companies 4 main go-to franchises? Because they're Evergreen and always in production. Well, almost always. There are short lulls, sure. They did revamp lines to varying degrees of...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    Ernie and Bert segments were continuously filmed, just not for the US market for some strange reason. I'm hoping that the new recast means he'll have a bigger on show (as in Street Story) presence. Seems like it could very well be the case. These recasts have brought back characters that were...

    Sesame Street on SNL

    Why would you want that one? It was awful, lazily written, and unfunny on every level. The others were varying levels of actually quite brilliant to pretty good, actually. This one was just... poor.

    Uncle Grandpa

    Wow. Those Uncle Grandpa writers sure are giving it to the ponies lately. I'm very excited about the next episode. Several short cartoons by other animators in their unique style. Supposedly Pen Ward is going to do one of them. Surprised John K isn't one of them (not really considering...

    No More 2D Animated Films At Disney

    Oh. I wouldn't mind a pre-production job like character designer or storyboard or something. Just the actual animation is a pain in the freaking butt. And I've done actual pencil on paper stuff too. For all the times I complain about motion tweens and other short cuts in Flash, that's all...

    No More 2D Animated Films At Disney

    Galavant "Thoughts"

    Further adding to personal confusion where certain sitcoms are discussed... didn't someone have a huge complaint about Ellen's "One Big Happy?" Cuz, if you do, it's not only been cancelled, but gained a spot in TVTropes' "So Bad, it's Horrible" page. WOW. Now, seriously. I like Ellen and...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Heh... It actually is. That's a surprise. I've come to an odd realization with the new episodes of Arthur. They somehow manage to look better on the computer than on television. I don't know why, maybe it's just me, maybe it's because I don't have a digital television, maybe it's an optical...

    Video: "The Muppets" Official ABC Trailer

    I tend to think of the Muppet Show as both an homage to old school entertainment and a little backhanded compliment to the other variety shows of the day. But that show is only one part of what the Muppets offered. The strange thing is, it seems most casuals will either see the Muppets as only...

    Most Disturbing Animated Movie and TV Show

    Ehhh.. to be perfectly honest, I'd say even Care bears specials were more disturbing than that. That one where Mr. Professor Cold Freeze (whatever, I HATE the freaking Care Bears) turned kids into those ...eh... Frog thingies for some reason relating to emotions... uh... I dunno. The fact that...

    The Videogame Thread

    Forgot if this was the thread or not. If you're like me, you heard about the Ratchet and Clank movie (from this thread I believe) and were disappointed by the lack of updates in the production process. I didn't think this thing was even still in production...then came this: The announcement...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I'd say it's more Josie and the Pussycats the movie. I have to admit, it doesn't look terrible (look at what was done to Bratz... they made something that sucked to begin with into something beyond awful). To me, it's more of Hasbro stripping down the concept and removing all the elements that...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Is it a coincidence that Marvel movies they own the rights to have been hitting it out of the park while the other companies that have their own Marvel film rights are struggling? Well, not so much Fox and X-Men, and I look forward to Deadpool... but certainly Spider-Man and Sony. And now they...
