Bay was just the producer. The problem with the film was all script. I wouldn't complain about the CGI myself, as that was the one thing they did right. As I've said a million times by now, the decision to focus on April and Eric Sachs was the major problem with the film. The Turtles and...

I can't help blame 4Kids' terrible business sense for that one not being as successful as it should have been. There were all these grand plans of toylines and making Kirby the next Pikachu that went nowhere. F Zero, however, I don't think anyone could have made that look good. No matter who...

To be honest, they didn't even think much of the animated series or Japan's own Mario movie either. What broke them with the SMB movie to the point where they refused any adaptions besides that awful F-Zero series and Pokemon is ridiculous. Mario deserves a comic book adaption at the very least.

Don't get excited. Apparently, this wasn't true at all And we can thank Nintendo's stick up their butt for that. The gaming giant has lost ground because it doesn't make enough games fratboys like to play, so rather than trying to make up for it in another media presence, they stubbornly...

I'm pretty sure I mentioned this programming block before, but I absolutely HATE Nick Sports on Nicktoons. Two awful cartoons. Fine. Sucky live action movies? Okay. Sports wrap up shows for kids. Alright. BUT STAY IN YOUR OWN CONTAINED TIME SLOT! No need for Little Ballers to be shown 3...

Had a feeling it would happen, I don't see the draw. I seriously don't. It's for tweenagers that love to read horrible books. That's all. Not that it flopping would have stopped them from making every book a movie anyway. Maybe 2 movies. While I'm not one to overreact to bad trends in...

I'm sure they probably converted stuff that came out around the last decade. There's certainly stuff there they can use if they need to fill any gaps. But it would be better to use the intended for international stuff they have just sitting around. I would imagine they're ration some of it as...

I feel with the Looney Tunes, no matter what they do, they seem to wind up displeasing die hards one way or the other. Shorts that try to ape the original LT style, shows that keep the LT formula and character personalities as close as they can, and those two...things... that threw the formula...

Wondering if comic books count. Some part of me wants to say they do. Or toys. Or both... Kinda like how G.I. Joe and Transformers only became cartoons because Hasbro (and maybe Marvel) said the cartoons were based on the comic books, not the toy line because of the restrictions they had at...

At the risk of bringing something...eh... strange to a kid's franchise I shouldn't be into, somehow I have to ship two of my favorite Mixels Kraw and Gobba Mainly because they keep doing this: Boomchickaboomchikaboom indeed! C'mon. They're both male identified genderless beings...

I remember back in the day when he was only a local talk show host. It's almost surreal to see how far he came since then. Granted, that was back in the 80's.

If the Fraggle Rock movie were to at least appeal to the parents that grew up with FR to take their kids it would have needed to have been made when it was first announced. It's not that it's entirely impossible that kids can get into something from just the movie without the nostalgic context...

I don't believe in true timelessness as everything is the product of when it was created. Look at Looney Tunes. Best case scenario you get an episode not made during WW II where they make references to savings bonds and rationing, or an episode that doesn't have television in it because of all...

That's my feeling as well. There's a wealth of stuff made specifically for the international market taped in English here to get dubbed anyway. How come we saw "The Power of Yet" 3 times in a season? Two times a couple episodes apart. For a company that's strapped for cash that has to reuse...

Which is, I'm sure, a huge part of the reason why the movie hasn't been made yet. Sesame Street is instantly recognizable and still on the air going on 46 years. The way SW has been totally promoting Cookie Monster to Elmo levels of media absorption has been amazing. The Muppets are slightly...

There's a wealth of non-Muppet Disney owned stuff that they're sitting on as well. Even big Marvel based stuff. Disney just doesn't think DVD's of anything that isn't a movie isn't profitable. They did oddly release the last Talespin and a huge second volume of Goof Troop episodes with little...

M*A*S*H* did things that no other sitcom had done before. I'd say the 70's were as great to sitcoms as it was terrible to American animation. Once barriers are broken down, there's not much further things can go. I like how more sitcoms have Cerebus syndrome now, but MASH was the major...

If there's one thing that can't be expected when the word "change" is thrown around, it's a change to something as wonderfully retro as that.

Ehhh,... The Chipmunks, in their own universe were in "the real world." Their film at least felt natural compared to the others. And frankly, as far as Looney Tunes goes, Tiny Toons had it right. "When it comes to cartoons, us old guys only have a 7 minute attention span." Other than that...

Unless Brian wants to work some freelancing for Disney, I think Sal should be recast. Somehow, I think that Tyler Bunch would work. I really wish the Muppets could branch out into other holidays. I think they have quite enough Christmas projects as it is. I really would like to see them try...
