    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    On other Marvel news, rumors broke and were promptly retracted of a...get this...movie focused on Young Aunt May. Now, this is not going to happen at all, mind you. It's one of those "so unbelievable that it must be true, 'cept it isn't" type wild stories used for clickbait. But it speaks...

    Indiewire: Does Muppets Most Wanted Have Oscar "Best Song" Potential?

    Yeah, but let's be honest... the Best Song Oscar didn't go to some pretentious ethnic band singing about how horrible something is from a depressing "prestige" picture, and it went to a people pleasing song that time. And seriously, the BIGGER miscarriage of justice was that Blame Canada lost...

    New VeggieTales series "In the House" coming to Netflix Nov. 26, 2014

    Really?! I have to admit, I'm 50/50 about the looks, and I agree they should have kept the classic black eye cartoon look over the realistic iris and retina eyes. Though they don't look as bad here as, well, Scooby-Doo, Garfield, and the Smurfs. Even Mr. Peabody looked a...

    Most Unlikable Protagonists

    Like I said, it wasn't so much preachy as being totally ticked off at the thin political majority at the time, and they handled the topics without the delicacy and nuance that American Dad did discussing the same issues. But I'll take morally superior Brian over completely morally inferior...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    Eh... I'd argue that the film has the one big sin of the Transformer movies everyone can agree on. TOO MUCH human focus. April is one thing, and tying her even moreso into the Turtles lives by having her more involved with the turtles' mutation isn't out of the question (IDW has her just as...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    Technically, Animal Crackers isn't exactly a specific brand. Most cookie and cracker companies have their own kind of Animal Crackers. Keebler, Stoffer, and Nabisco all have them, Nabisco specifically has "Barnum and Bailey" licenses for theirs. That doesn't mean the movie's less stupid, but...

    Dude... if anything from the Muppets is passed up, I at least hope "Everything is Awesome" gets a nod.

    Commercial rant time...

    If there's one commercial I absolutely loathe it's that awful, long form Gerald McBoing-Boing ripoff I see in front of every movie. If you don't know what I'm talking about, and I don't even want to dignify it with a YT search, it goes like this... We see a woman who just gave birth... later...

    New VeggieTales series "In the House" coming to Netflix Nov. 26, 2014

    You have to admit, at least Dreamworks cared enough about the franchise to do something with it. They own all these Classic Media owned characters, and other than a Peabody and Sherman movie and a Bullwinkle cartoon (that's ONLY available on the crappy super duper 3-D Blu-Ray disk), they...

    The Adults and Snuffy

    Notice the second I mention that it was an abuse of Flat Earth Atheism, someone posted it on the TVtropes page for that specific trope?

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    You know something? This is a real testament to writing quality, but I find it hilarious that in Age of Extinction, T. J. millers character was so obnoxious that I laughed at his character's death yet he pretty much stole the show as Fred in Big Hero 6. And from Baymax to boot!

    Most Unlikable Protagonists

    I'm going with post-Soapbox Brian Griffin. Who'd've thought he would be even less likable after the writers decided not to make him a mouth piece for their justifiable (he was very active in the Bush era), yet tiresome rants? I like the character and all, but last night's episode (Brian the...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    Yeah. I'm not saying that people should like it or not like it, but the whole "it's offensive" thing seems to be taken completely out of proportion, especialy since... well, let's compare Family Guy and Black Jesus... Family Guy loves to be offensive and trolling. But on top of that, the...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I don't know what's up with them. They might have more control over what their videos are, as they make their videos as internet videos. I think they were known more for their internet video... But yeah, the professional standard music video is usually made on the cheap, and they're usually...

    New Pixar Movie Previews

    ... Actually, I spoke too soon. They ARE planning a King Julien spinoff, just not as a movie, but rather, a Netflix series. That's a BIG sign that they can indeed take the same franchise characters and breathe new life into them without making a film. Spinoffs, TV shows, specials, comics...

    New VeggieTales series "In the House" coming to Netflix Nov. 26, 2014

    Considering I casually watched a few episodes and dug it, but am otherwise not a big fan, it really seems like much ado about nothing. Only thing that sounds like an issue is the thing about autistic kids being weirded out by their new eyes. The only thing I see is the original primitive CGI...

    Animated Hotties?

    Francine's popularity is crazy. There's quite a bit of fan art out there. I totally see it, too.

    Great that Big Hero 6 won the weekend. Too bad it couldn't have beaten Frozen's opening, though. Not to mention competition from Interstellar. This movie was excellent and really should have opened to Marvel Movie money, mainly because... Who would have thought Marvel's two best movies would...

    The Sonic Boom Thread

    Finally got to check it out, and so far, I quite enjoy it. I'd say it's probably my third favorite Sonic cartoon behind SatAM and Adventures. A definate improvement over Sonic X, which I did like but too much Japanese kiddy show stuff seeped in (the reason behind Chris being on the show, as...
