    So... Sesame Street Season 44!

    I wouldn't see them do a Jerry Tribute on the kid's show proper. It takes away from the suspension of disbelief for one. And I don't think kids that young would dig the behind the scenes crew talking about him for an extended period, rather than have it appear as an actual story. I mean, we...

    The joy of pirated games

    You know what the funny thing is? Pirate games from the earliest era of home video games didn't even need to hack the code. And the most interesting thing about them is, they had completely original artwork, rather than scary cut and paste jobs. And they were... well... interesting...

    Fairy Tales they changed up to be modern was something they've done since the beginning. Only Princess and the Frog really took it to a more contemporary setting. The 2-D film era is "over" because they put too much stock into Princess and the Frog (which was released opposite The Chipmunks 2...

    Sesame Street in 1969

    The first season is, as the old saying goes, a wonderful place to visit, but you don't want to live there. There's just so much that thankfully disappeared as the show progressed. Covers of real songs, while fun and cute, just don't hold the same weight as original songs. It seemed more like...

    If Noggin could do it in 2000....

    Sesame Workshop has official videos that are unfortunately for sale only. Considering their budget woes, I just can't argue the fact they're trying to make some money back. It does suck that they can't offer anything free and need to be copyright police to make sure they get that money. I'll...

    Probably because of merchandising= Very yes. Somehow, Cars merchandise does sell. They just overestimated the second film and overproduced all the merchandise. Everywhere I go, I see it either on clearance or on sale, only for it to be repegged. Planes has less appeal. I mean, kids love...

    What made you roll your eyes today thread?

    It would take five thousand terms and a completely not a piece of crap Congress controlled by corporate yes men to finish cleaning up all the mess Bush made halfway through his first term.

    The joy of pirated games

    The funny thing about those is that they have real games in them under unrelated licensed names. I tried one of them once, finding a WWF game (didn't take the care to realize they haven't called themselves that since the 80's) was actually the original Japanese Kinnikuman Tag Team match game...

    It's coming out in September. The trailer has been polluting theaters for the past couple months. Luckily I only saw it once... There's nothing but horrible food puns throughout the trailer. Example... "There's a LEEK in the boat." Camera pans to very obvious leek smiling. The trailer is...

    Stupid puns can work if the set up is good enough. Not the case here. They just wrote a 90 minute barrage of terrible puns with no variation.

    New Sesame Street Post Breakfast Cereals

    Licensing. I bet Post is going to be one of SS's sponsors next season. Probably some well to do suburban housewife with too much time on her hands. That's usually who gets overly concerned about these things. And the reason we can't have any fun cereals anymore, actually.

    Videos: Muppets Most Wanted videos with Ross Lynch and Debby Ryan

    Okay... Zardoz is this movie that... well... I can't even explain to you. It's insane, and the big reveal is that Zardoz is The Wizard of Oz. If you want to look up tyhe trailer on Youtube, go ahead. But you can see why I likened that film to MWO.\ The Quentin Tarrentino bit was funny...

    I'm disappointed they have to have a Superman/Batman film so immediately. I understand it's a compromise from a JLA movie, which could only strengthen the possibilities for one. But I really wish they'd do Man O Steel Man 2 first. They really need to deal with the aftermath of the first one, and...

    It did. Pickles to Pittsburg or something like that. According to Wikipedia: So, yeah... they threw out the source material completely this time, opting for ripping off Toriko. And the entire film trailer is "LOOK! Food pun! Look! Food Pun! LOOK! FOOD PUN!" over and over again. :rolleyes:

    Videos: Muppets Most Wanted videos with Ross Lynch and Debby Ryan

    Hey! It's better than those offensive Chinese Trade guys from Episodes 1-3. Why no one realizes they're actually worse than Jar Jar on every level is beyond me. At least Jar Jar shut up in the 3rd film.

    When you need to rant...

    I remember seeing posts on videos where "fans" went Apescat when Dr. Eggman said something on Sonic X about how trying to hurt someone was going too far (in context, to some evil space army of something when he teamed up with them). Then I got the 3rd to last issue of the Sonic/Mega Man team...

    I've said it before. Those who think MOS is the bad Superman Film didn't see the last 3, and have all too rosy views on the original 2. The truth is, if they made a straight up happy interpretation of Superman, it would be laughed off the screen even worse. Superman comes from an idealistic...
