The Fart Shoes were originally a Checkov's Gun. Then they weren't. Meanwhile, the "nipples" joke from Muppet Zardoz goes uncomplained about. First off, I'll take Disney Channel talentless kids over Rob Schneider, Ashanti, and Kelly Osborne anyday. Secondly, as I said, they're just...

PG sells movies. G doesn't. G is kid deterrent for some reason. Only Pixar gets away with G's. Madagascar 3 got a PG rating, and they didn't even keep the REAL lyrics of New York, New York. They can't even give them that mild H word. Remember, Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame mentioned...

The thing I hate about the Sonic fanbase most? Where the heck is the love for Dr. Eggman/Robotnik outside of the "Pingas" meme? There's so little merchandise, and what there is of it is hard to find and disappears frequently.

You actually even see that movie? The only "Non-Stop fighting" was the last 20 minutes or so of the film. The rest of it was setting up the Superman mythos and his past. If anything, it was kinda talky.

There's no doubt that brad Bird actually thinks of the adults first. Ratatouille is one of my favorites, it's brilliantly written... but the gourmet food talk and satire surrounding it that's so integral to the film just goes over kids' heads. Meanwhile Cars resonates with them because little...

I personally hate Mary Sue OC's period... but what really gets me? Mary Sue OC's done in a style alien to the series that no longer have a passing resemblance to the series they're supposed to be from. That's why I had to stop watching an Ed, Edd, n' Eddy group. My inbox was completely...

I agree to that. But to make it look like it takes no skill or money is hogwash. It's a technology issue. In the old days, they did have to be innovative because they only had access to so much. On the one hand, things did look a little more realistic, but then you have rubber suits you...

You're right there... it's pretty much going to suck no matter what.

Hopefully, not too many more. The Consider Yourself segment was edited in the Old School release at the wrong moment, if you ask me (knowing full well why it was cut). It really takes away from the suspension of disbelief that makes Sesame Street work. It was a fun skit on the Ed Sullivan...

While I give MFS the business quite a bit, I still enjoy the film. Everything wrong with that film was the director. He ruined the original ending (for those who haven't heard it a hundred times, the aliens weren't actually Gonzo's species), and forced in mundane bits (checking mail and...

Except Seussical had just as poor a reception as the films. It's not really that great, and they already had a Horton film. I never saw why they needed to make movies out of children's short form storybooks. You have to add new characters and expand the plot. It takes basically 10 minutes...

I believe it was. It was a great cartoon, but they waited far too long for the characters to be relevant. Not quite as long as Spaceballs, which was time tested cult enough to get a series somehow. Not to mention it was on the wrong network. Napoleon Dynamite really should have been an...

The moment you've been waiting for... I actually bothered to see Turbo this weekend. The film was alright. Not great, but certainly not as terrible as I thought it would be. It's pretty good for a cliche storm (it's a sports movie after all, an Underdog one at that). It doesn't so much...

Oh, there's no question they want to make an Incredibles sequel. Problem is, Brad Bird will only do it if he can get a great script, and he has been busy with the last Mission: Impossible film and Tomorrowland. Cars pretty much only got a sequel because the toys sell really well. In fact, all...

Aw, come on. You're making CGI sound like something a third grader could do on an etch-a-sketch. Listen. While CGI is a bane to puppetry and 2-D animation enthusiasts, it's NO WHERE near the cheap quick fix detractors make it out to be. Pacific Rim isn't losing a crapload of money because...

This thread gets me too paranoid.

I think the biggest fluke was one of the LOTR movies winning an Oscar. And it was considered the weakest of the trilogy too. What I really hate is when the big artsy fartsy films win the technical awards. Sure, I have sympathy for the studio screwing them over and the company going pout of...

Ladies and gentlemen... Geewun. No one lives forever, and no one should be associated with one thing forever. I'd rather they keep the franchise going than bury it under mothballs for the occasional DVD release and T-shirt. Are newer Muppet works as good as the classic ones? Not really...
