    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    That's some nice scenery porn, you have to admit. It's probably something I should see in 3-D, but I'll skip that option. There are some things that generally seem a little Ice Agey... but with humans. There's something about the fact this was a different movie in its inception that raises...

    Animaniacs

    I know I definitely have Flavio and Marita in the second assortment. I have that thing lying around in plain sight somewhere. I have several of those in various places, but I know exactly where that one is. I only have one of the Wendy's ones. Thankfully it was the good one. The one with...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    It doesn't look too impressive, but then again, whenever I say that I end up enjoying it because of something they didn't ruin in the trailers. I'm very ambivalent about seeing it, and only if I have the extra cash after seeing the thing I actually want to. Considering it was to be a...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Y'know... I might as well see the Croods after all, but only if I have extra money. it doesn't look terrible. I might as well watch one Dreamworks film this year, since they postponed Peabody and Sherman (bet Rise of the Guardians was to blame).... It really looks like Thanksgiving Weekend is...

    Old Nick Appreciation Thread

    I never understood why Nick doesn't just go 24/hr. Nick at Nite is just fodder for George Lopez reruns, so I hear. I swear... had they a Nick equivalent of Adult Swim, Invader Zim could have flourished there. All their other networks go 24/hr... even the preschool shows (in case someone gets...

    Animaniacs

    Yeah. That's the one, I think. I can't remember since they only aired that once, and I can't find that one on youtube. Funny thing is, they already did a Mr. Rogers Neighborhood parody with Pinky and the Brain in the comic book series.

    What Muppet Merchandise would you like to see come out this year

    Ugh. I hate that Europe's getting more Muppet stuff. I just don't see how Statler and Waldorf wouldn't be big sellers here. Even people who barely know the Muppets know who those guys are. Not their names, granted... Really. Disney dropped the ball by not expanding the plush line by at...

    More Non-Muppet-Shaped Muppet Toys

    The legality is all I'm wondering about. I'm sure they're not going to sell thousands of these. Probably a small, limited quantity. I honestly don't understand the legal loopholes that let custom T-shirt companies have thinly veiled parodies of pop culture icons (to the point where it...

    Valerie Harper has brain cancer

    Brave is an understatement. She plans to fight this and to live life and enjoy it as much as she has left. If she dies in a few months, then she dies in a few months. That's the amount of fight that's in her. All the while, everyone around her is basically writing her off as already dead...

    Henson Manga Titles

    That's because Tokyo Pop went completely under. And with it's focus on American "ginzu" manga, it's no wonder. I mean, American comics made by Americans who think Anime is exactly Bi-Shonen and nothing more... anime has so many different looks, and we barely understand anything that isn't...

    Has Herry been retired?

    Yes and no. I wouldn't exactly see extra Herry based segments on the show itself, but how about using him for the street stories? I see a lot of Fairy Tale based episodes coming out the past few years. That clearly means they're always trying to add new characters based on puppeteer...

    Animaniacs

    Yeah. The second one was a fire truck. The other one was all three of them on a roller skate. I had both... emphasis on had. Now I just can't find the things.

    Animaniacs

    I love the Good Fellas. I lost both Happy Meal toys of them and I'm very much not happy about it. But I'm downright ticked that I lost the Slappy Squirrel one. The one where she's on the motor cycle. She never got any merchandise. I think it was 2 Happy Meal toys (one she's just a sticker)...

    Animaniacs

    The show had some brilliant plans for Brain and it did have it's fair share of actually funny bits. What really bugs me isn't so much Elmyra, but their portrayal of Bill Nye the Science Guy as an effeminate moron was kinda Didn't do the Research to the point of insulting. The problem with the...

    Old Nick Appreciation Thread

    I'm sorry, but all that stuff pales in comparison the the creation of Nicktoons. Well... maybe arguably with Danger Mouse and Count Duckula. The live action 80's shows were fun, but certainly no Doug or Rocko.

    Valerie Harper has brain cancer

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks it's in poor taste. She's been on just about every television forum to say how exactly not dead she is, only to have every television forum say how prematurely dead she is behind her back. Something tells me Valerie's got some good years ahead of her...

    Disney Channel Upfront 2013

    And one of the creators of Homestar Runner works on Gravity Falls. Even does voices. They're really getting a lot of cartoon talent for these shows. Of course, Phineas and Ferb was an old concept (from what I read). Even the name Ferb came from Rocko's Modern Life ("Ferb T'wernt his real...

    New Mickey Mouse Shorts Announced

    I really hope that doesn't backfire on them, because the fact they're American characters speaking unsubtitled French is part of this cartoon's charm. I especially like that Tress MacNeil (Daisy) is the only one to have a proper French accent. Same as that weird "Buttons and the Red Balloon"...

    Eh, they'll probably wind up suing you for calling them. :fishy:
