    Who is Lionsgate associated with?

    ... and you were mad someone deleted them all from his page. Well, now you have the reason. Lionsgate's just... awful and possessive when it comes to this sort of thing. Then again, I've seen copyright blocks by foreign networks that once aired some incredibly obscure thing, so...

    "Hate" on Sesame Street Youtube channel

    Man... I feel sorry for the guy who has only the Vietnamese channel. I mean, that's the only excuse for not seeing a white guy on television in essentially everything. Seriously. I love this poor little white male majority schtick. Almost makes me feel sorry for them losing a quantum...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    I've no problem with the voice cast upgrade on this one. Or at least the exact same kind of problem. All I wanna know is how much involvement the original team has in this. It's nice they have some A-list talent, yet it does seem less of a small run thing with the limited amount of voice...

    Zemekis/Disney To Remake "Yellow Submarine?"

    I love that one as well. I honestly don't see why that was a problem. The animation was beautiful and Michael Bell is a perfect fit for the character. I never read him as speaking remotely like Pooh. Mind of the creator, I guess. Also... as far as the film goes, didn't Opus talk to humans...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    The animation certainly looks better, I'd say. Some of the earlier ones look downright amateurish, but to be expected as so. It's a good look for the characters. I say look specifically. I don't know anything about this, but I'd feel better knowing that the same team that was always there...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I have a problem with kid's picture book movies. They made Shrek, and then that was the only enjoyable one. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was meh. It had some laughs to it (I rather like the part where Flynn is trying to get his father to work the computer properly, actually), but I don't...

    Is JHC No Longer Involved with Alexander?

    There really wasn't much of a story to begin with. It was about a little kid who was having a bad day, some of that admittedly was through his own little boy first world problems, some of it legitimately was going against him. They turned it into something I'd call "Liar Liar with Bad Karma...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Ugh. It made half its budget back so far? It was that cheap to make? Well, that makes sense. I'd absolutely love to agree that JHC is behind this and we should root for it, but JHC can do better than a generic family comedy tossed off in October. If it's a Tusk situation, and they're only...

    Labyrinth sequel in development - Variety report

    Henson is a small time company. While half the reason they haven't developed a movie is all them, they need a business partner to help release and partially fund a movie. The last 2 they had were completely useless. One just wanted to release crappy DTV CGI movies ripping off Shrek (all the...

    Zemekis/Disney To Remake "Yellow Submarine?"

    Dude... I love Bill's work and all, but he's got his head up himself if he thinks that A Wish for Wings that Work is such a horrible project and hasn't said a nasty thing yet about this ugly film. From what I heard, he got all ticked off that Michael Bell (who was a great fit for Opus, mind...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    This is completely off topic, but I have to make corrections. Sony Wonder distributed 4 VHS full of all season 1 episodes. They disappeared as quickly as they came. The show was still in production when they were released. The rights to home media was long gone by the time DVD's started...

    Zemekis/Disney To Remake "Yellow Submarine?"

    Lucas washed his hands of the franchise, and I'm sure he's still self deluded enough to never renounce them. At this point, I have more faith in Disney pressuring Fox to release the original films somehow. At least, I'm hoping that's likely and Lucas didn't put a clause in the buyout contract...

    MUPPETS Screenwriter Nicholas Stoller Says THE MUPPETS Might Be Coming Back to TV

    Long story short about internet streaming... I have problems with them all, but it's no fault of their own, but rather the licensees. They can demand their stuff get pulled when they decide they didn't get enough money for it. And when they do, they make the sites charge more for membership...

    "Hate" on Sesame Street Youtube channel

    Yeah. And then they get all defensive and it makes them even worse. Nice to know that people like that live amongst us via the internet, saying stuff that would get their butts kicked if they said it in real life. What I love (in the most sarcastic, eye rolling, long pronunciation you can...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Understand sarcasm much? That's where the word "assume" comes in. There's no plans for a sequel, thankfully. But Disney would stand to make more crappy throwaway family comedies that make no money anyway because that's what they do.

    "Hate" on Sesame Street Youtube channel

    Keywords? "Hate" and "Youtube." NEVER look up a cartoon or commercial with the word "Racist" in it. There will be hundreds of racists saying everyone else is racist for for calling them out on their racism only for the "not racist" racists to say racist things. In fact... never look anything...

    Is JHC No Longer Involved with Alexander?

    The most positive reviews still find the film unmemorable or unremarkable. I'd say that Madagascar and Shrek are the signs of hipster hate, and I remember every indie newspaper ripping all those films apart for the sake of being the cool kid. You know, the film geek that hates anything...

    That seems to be a one day, and this is a three day weekend. But hopefully it will make even less money in its first week than MMW. I'm not saying that's good enough proof for Disney to make another film right away, but just enough for A) the family box office overall has been terrible after...

    Labyrinth sequel in development - Variety report

    Lousy CGI Kid's shows that they make money off of. Any money coming in is good money, and I applaud them for trying to find alternate forms of media to go after. Though the only thing that gets me excited is the partnership with Archaia comics. Unproduced scripts in comic form? Wish I had...
