    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Considering I was shut out from seeing it, no thanks to 2 more snowstorms this weekend selling out the only showing I could have got to, I'm very happy that Spongebob topped the box office with 56 Million. That's most of it's budget, correct? So, what I've been on a soap box for years has been...

    Behold! The Worst Cartoon Show of all time

    That said, I wouldn't say so much HSUSA is one of the worst things I've ever seen, so much as a disappointment. Strange that Archie Comics didn't try and sue them back into the stone age, as they're litigious as heck. I can't believe that Nicktoons keeps NFL Guardians on the schedule. It's...

    The Steven Universe thread

    Something tells me that's one of the big mysteries that will be revealed in time. It is coincidental that every place they've been has been out of the way. Considering what Pearl hinted at at the other gems wanting to do something to the Earth, I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't a...

    Behold! The Worst Cartoon Show of all time

    Eh. Somehow I just imagine it trying to be offensive funny and coming off as tedious. Like every other episode. It's sad that a parody version of Archie is actually less funny than its inspiration. I really don't like how Animation Domination puts all the effort into lesser cartoons than it...

    SpongeBob SquarePants

    Better the heck. THIS was the only day I could see it because of yet another 2 foot nightmare storm, our third one this year, nay this month and I'm pretty angry about it. Next weekend looks like garbage too, so that's out, too.

    Fraggle Rock Ultimate DVD Collection

    I was going to say Wait wait wait! Isn't this the one that had that massive defective disk recall because they all fell out and slid all over the place? But it actually isn't, but still just as poorly stored. Yeah, I don't get sleeves. I hated how the Futurama movies got packaged in that...

    DreamWorks Animation Shutdown

    Dreamworks has never released any of its movies by itself. Same way that prior to the buyout, Pixar was technically a freelance that Disney hired. Remember. When they threatened to leave before Eisner left, Disney made it explicitly clear that they own the characters and were going to make...

    SpongeBob SquarePants

    It's funny. For a movie Nickelodeon purposely made 3-D, they had such an awful distribution of 3-D versions of the film. Only 2 theaters near me even had them, and the one I tried to see the movie only had 1 theater that even had the 3-D showing, and it's a large theater. So I couldn't go...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4518 - Friendship Day

    Now that I think of it, I really don't like the Sesame Street News Flash bumpers. I mean, sure... the part where Murray talks to kids is actually cute and perfectly in style of what Sesame Street is all about. Outside of that, it's just repetitive and unnecessary. Murray had a Little Lamb and...

    Should Muppet Babies be rated TV-G?

    Wait. When and where the heck was Muppet Babies broadcast by the time TV ratings were implemented? TV Y-7 seems like a stretch, as it's clearly a younger person's show. By no means violent or scary enough to warrant a TV Y-7. I call bull on that. As far as I'm concerned TV ratings for kid's...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    Those that obsessed with fictitious characters' love life to the point of starting flame wars over hypothetical situations really need to settle down and look at where their lives are headed. I swear that part of the Teen Titans Go series is written with them in mind...to troll of course...

    DreamWorks Animation Shutdown

    The problem is, Madagascar has a built in audience (though the Penguin movie did very week business, on the plus side it didn't seem to affect the superior Big Hero 6 much) while Guardians is a weird premise and based on a series of books no one has read or heard of. A shame, since they're...

    The Steven Universe thread

    They're really ramping up the storyline here. Pearl nondescriptly revealed what the events of Warp Tour meant, and Amethyst has a depressing and disturbing breakdown because she always felt like an accident. That puts her clowning behavior and uncivilized attitude into a darker light. Also...

    DreamWorks Animation Shutdown

    Holy crap! That true? I was thinking maybe some new Underdog material to wash the bad taste of Disney's Generic Super Hero Talking Dog with Franchise Name film out. Or even just putting the old ones on there for those who don't want to buy the 60 dollar big set. But yeah. Bullwinkle and...

    DreamWorks Animation Shutdown

    You know... this also sounds like an overreaction to many of the companies proposing a buyout all backed out last minute. Dreamworks never really had a self sustaining company, and always needed to partner with another company. Be it Universal, Viacom, or Fox (which I'd say is doing the wost...

    JHC Franchise Credit Cards

    Yeah... credit cards. Really shows how much sway Henson has if they continue on the very depressingly bleak level of bad merchandising. 'cept the comics, cuz those are always great. Seriously, guys. Give Funko a call.

    Is there a reason why Disney dislikes releasing Muppet DVD's?

    It's funny that their purposed botching of the foreign release stunted the movie's box office pull, and by all means Planes 2 made just around the same lousy box office here, but because it opened in more countries it made slightly more and it's considered a success that they're still ramming...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Thank Grod! The show is so generic and cheap that if it were a cereal, it would come in a bag. Sad to see that's the reason they fried The Millers, which should have stayed on Thursdays (*&%^$in' "Mom") and also not adding an unfunny gay stereotype to the mix when J.B. Smoov was funny enough...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    Agreed fully. If someone is adept enough, they'll have a skillful view of adapting characters into alternate universe styles. Then there are those who lack the research and just gratuitously copy and or trace things. It goes back to what I'm always saying about anime. No one bothers with the...

    DreamWorks Animation Shutdown

    This is a really obnoxious overreaction. Sure, the past few movies have been very audience alienating. Holiday Characters as bad&##es, snails that want to be race cars, and a movie based on a 60 year old cartoon series kids never heard from a franchise that has a history of flop movies (it was...
