    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    They clearly changed the title to reflect one thing. I'm starting to think it's not so much that they glazed over one major plot point from the first episode, so much as they're doing this for the sake of the story. There's a reason it's called Peabody's Improbable History. The WAYBAC was...

    Marcia Wallace voice of Edna Krabappel passes away

    Other than Edna being a deeper, richer character anyway, she seems to at least sort of like the students that don't act up. Depending on the writer Martin's either the teacher's pet or an annoying sycophant that she sort of tolerates. Hoover hates everybody. Ralph, Lisa... I'd say others but...

    Guy Smiley Is Back! HALLELUJAH!

    Guy Smiley was back for quite some time now (since 2005 in fact). They've just somehow been reluctant to put him back on the show until the "Hurry Up! You're Running out of Time" episode back in 2008. And then still reluctant until this season. I don't see why, since Guessing Game episodes...

    Marcia Wallace voice of Edna Krabappel passes away

    They are planning to kill a character off obviously, it's going to be a secret until the episode airs. Whoever it winds up being, it's probably going to wind up a minor player for the sake of an episode plotline. I can't imagine them killing Sideshow Bob off permanently. The thing that's...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    The frightening thing is, Justin Timberlake's Boo-Boo was the only good thing about the dire Yogi Bear movie. He was eerily spot on. Dan sounded more like Luigi from the Super Mario World cartoon. It's just weird when they have A-list talent try to sound like the original voice actors for...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    It's not that I'd mind that sort of humor one way or the other... as long as they didn't have the falling face first into elephant crap like in George of the Jungle. Anything other than that is... well, I'm about to puke just thinking about that sequence in GOTJ, so... And that was, for...

    Marcia Wallace voice of Edna Krabappel passes away

    Sad for Simpsons and Bob Newhart show fans. She was the sassy secretary Carol as well. Even managed to appear in the pilot episode of Darkwing Duck as Bulba's secretary. The sad irony is that the Simpsons writers confirmed they're going to kill off one of the characters. It'll be a shame if...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    It depends on who they get for the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon short before the movie. There is going to be one, and that's going to be a test of what they probably could do. I'd gather they'd try to get Keith Scott or Corey Burton, and June's still around. At least for that short. I do...

    Telly and Oscar

    He sure told him off in the Road Trip episode. That's for sure. The one thing I really liked was the fact that it was, while slightly tilted, there was a back and forth. Oscar would troll Telly, Telly would wind up annoying Oscar... Imagine if they merged Crummy Pictures with Sneak Peak...

    Hate Jessie

    If Disney is smart (and it usually is, compared to certain other companies) they'll learn the huge mistake CN made by ticking Genndy Tartikofsky off with what they did to Sim-Biotic Titan. Sure, they can give PPG and Samurai Jack licenses to IDW, but they're never getting Genndy back. And...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    FINALLY: Eh, it looks like the right elements are there. Ty even manages to pronounce Leonardo DiVinci in the same erudite and snotty way Bill Scott did, and there does seem to be a hint of the original horrible puns. It's very hard with the trailer they put together making it look like...

    Hate Jessie

    Factory conveyor belt, I tellz yah. But then again, it sounds like it came out of nowhere because, other than the channel it airs, Disney's not shoving it in everyone's faces like they did back in 2004. If only Wander over Yonder and Gravity Falls was forced in our faces... sigh. They are so...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    It's quite the opposite. Sort of until recently, but much as I actually liked Turbo, it was pretty banal. With Pixar's MU movie, at least the heroes wind up losing in the end, but getting back on their feet. No, studios want to copy early Dreamworks (the likes of Shrek and Sharktale) and make...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    I always found it funny that everyone wants to copy Dreamworks instead of Pixar. Then again, the only CGI Family movie franchise that had 4 theatrical installments aside from Shrek was Ice Age. Pixar is smart to leave Toy Story to shorts and specials. The Halloween TS special was pretty good, if...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    I had the G.I. Joe theme stuck in my head the other day. Mainly because I was using the end theme for something and had to hear o it too many times. Also, not so much a song as I got the opening to the (thankfully reuploaded) YTP How the Gririch Borrowed Hannuka whirling around my head for...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    This is for the small Venn Diagram of those who like The Middle and Transformers. Anyone notice that Brick basically talks like Shrapnel shrapnel ? That same odd silently repeating the last word of a sentence sentence? I'm starting to wonder if the writers were fans of the Insecticons and...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    I'm sorry, but why the heck do Bronies get the business when this subpar tenth party animated drek even has a fanbase? I personally can't understand why everyone loves those Cloudy movies, but even that looked more engaging than the first one of these stupid things. The fan base will eat it up...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    It's probably too early to ask, but does anyone have the "Safety Dance" parody from the "don't be Pushy" episode?

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

    That is, I assume that it is a tribute. Seems very likely it was, otherwise they'd probably just have a generic looking statue, maybe just another representation of Elmo instead. Funny, that out of all his characters, they chose ol' Fat Blue.

    Red Fraggle Collectible Doll by Greg Ortiz

    Again, it's all about retailers and licensees. Stores don't want to sell Nostalgic merchandise unless they're extremely evergreen or have a project coming up, and if no one's in the market to sell them, no one's going to be in the market to make them. On the Big Henson three totem pole, Sesame...
