    Behold... the New Teen Titans Cartoon...

    Cartoon Conspiracy takes a look at this... Not my theory. Mine? Teen Titans Go is the result of Larry (the Robin equivalent of Bat-Mite for those who forgot) screwing with their universe.

    Let's not forget fangirls of Loki. Bad guys, even violent as crap murderous ones are more fun. Negaduck once shot up a theater! FOR LAUGHS!! That, of course was manifest Negaduck, not "always there the whole time from another dimension" Negaduck. As long as the character is personable and...

    When you need to rant...

    It's more of a weird quirk. I don't get it. I also don't get the whole "pigs are so dirty back in the day that you can't watch a cartoon representation of pigs" thing either. Other than that, it's basically my same problem with organized religion. Everything needs reform and the failure to...

    When you need to rant...

    No. Seriously. That's in there. Not making it up. TRUE Islam respects the other prophets of other religions. That is true and not that overly angry politicized crap. Which I totally get. But this wasn't a rally of free speech. It was a rally of hate from hypocrites, quite possibly an...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    To be fair, The Nightmare on Elm Street movies have that special something horror franchises get when they have enough films under their belt. The fans of those movies start rooting for the villains because they're more interesting and complex and of course fun overall than the one dimensional...

    Galavant "Thoughts"

    Yes, but a kind of disaster they're hoping to be a disaster so people will actually tune in. I've never seen a live sitcom go off the rails, nor even too much of a corpsing (and all I can think of is when Tracy Jordan purposely tried to do it in universe in 30 Rock, which at least used the...

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    The fact the woman's head seems to be collapsed from the back makes it even worse. And this animator has done all of our "favorite" "What the Crap was That?!?!" horrifying, abstract animations with no educational content. So... okay... The episode with the Wicked Witch from Wizard of Oz was...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    Everyone wants to paint Disney as the only evil entertainment conglomerate ever because of weird urban legends and that they're apparently the only litigious entertainment conglomerate ever. Sony tried to keep redefining the word "piracy" to the point where buying a CD and ripping it to put on...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    Well, surprising in the fact that the movie didn't make that much money and critics and Stooges fans hated it. Even I'm shocked it made the money it did. And frankly, while I am not opposed to the idea of a revival Stooge movie, those who were behind it aren't half as talented as everyone says...

    Galavant "Thoughts"

    By all means, Galavant could have had a different ending that closed everything off and lasted a one season self contained thing and it would have been just as good. Even 10 minutes of closing the show off could have ended it satisfactory. But they threw in that complication that would save...

    Adobe Flash crashed all the time too. Never liked them. They charge too much for their crap and their Flash Player is as stable as a table with one leg on the edge of a cliff in an earthquake. You know that dumb Mario is Missing meme about how "You can't find Adobe here in Nairobi?" If that...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    That's actually an excellent point right there. However, the difference was that Puppet Game Show was Henson and everything after MWOO was Disney. Now, not saying Disney didn't have missteps, but I think it evens out to around, they're doing a pretty good job with the characters for the most...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    I don't like "The New Muppet Show" any more than "The Muppets." The New gets the sense of replacing the old, and I doubt very much that should be the case. Yet, The Muppets gets confusing with the movie title and the overall franchise title. I dunno. It's like I want to criticize the name...

    Uncle Grandpa

    I'm jealous of that nerd' Uncle Grandpa collection. Mainly because outside of 4 comic books and a couple single volume DVD's, there really isn't anything. Give us a Happy Meal toy at least. Loved how the tree one was mild deconstruction of the series. A talking slice of pizza and dinosaur...

    The Clarence thread

    It sounds like one of the two backwoods bullies was voiced by the kid who plays Brick. Such a lost opportunity he didn't get a scene with fellow ABC sitcom voiced kid Jeff. Love how Clarence has a soft spot for pigs. Obviously he looks like them, but maybe because he raises chickens he has a...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    TV is far more accessible than a 10 dollar movie ticket. Even when it comes to online distribution. That's at worst an 8 day wait vs sometimes a year or more at best. Not to mention maybe the general public will take a shine to the Muppets in 20 minute bursts instead of a single 100 minute...

    When you need to rant...

    Funny thing is, if anyone actually did the research, Islam doesn't allow the portrayal of any profit. Jesus totally included. When discussed about this on Larry Wilmore's show, one of the guests said that most Muslims ignored it. Probably better than most Christians do after a bad Family Guy...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    So... a second Three Stooges Movie is happening. But without the Farrelly Brothers this time. So it possibly could be a case of "Surprisingly Improved Sequel." From the clips I've seen, I think the casting of the Stooges is pretty solid. Even though Larry;s someone I don't much like...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    I was talking about variety shows in general. Not that they were all bad, mind you, but most of them were. And that was a case of everything being virtually the same in that era as well. The 1970's baffle me. They had these groundbreaking sitcoms, these very good police shows, yet these...
