    TV shows you wish would come back

    It's not so much that they love to do that. It's more like there aren't enough people watching anime in Japan that aren't kids to keep those shows going. It's now common practice for mini shows of 12 episodes. Only thing that's constantly in production is Shonen Jump long runners or something...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    Space Jam has one thing over BIA... it's coherent! BIA tries to shove too much plot info into a film with a lot of human cast meddling, all the while trying to out as many Easter Eggs, mythology gags, and character appearances. Not to mention how much insane meddling that ruined the film's...

    Help Sesame Street get 1 Billion Views on YouTube

    Seems they just updated the tally. It's gone up just less than 2 million views to about 980 million, so there's hope there. My concern is only that the number of views actually gets to 1 billion, and Youtube's crappy video view count isn't going to screw them over.

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    This is why I hate the fact that franchises of television programs and cartoons have to hinge on a movie's success. They rush out a film and we either get the LT:BIA/Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle treatment where the films are flops and we never see the characters again or Chipmunks/Smurfs...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    The stupid thing is, if I download to use a WMV format, the video breaks. But publishing WMV's is no problem for me. I can use self published WMV's and have due to the fact that to get multiple effects on the same clip, the least of which simple volume boosting. Just when I use downloaded...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Harrison Ford is happy to come back for episode 7 YAY! I can't wait for the same tired jokes about how old he is they made when they announced Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Those were all clever and perfectly mature.

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    Will works best in cerebral scripts. The Good Guys was brilliant. I highly recommend it. But Megamind was all over one of the most brilliant super hero satires I've seen, and we've been bombarded with them for quite some time. It found the one tiny angle that was overlooked, and ran with it...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    Funny thing is, I absolutely HATE that movie for stealing LTBIA's thunder. Elf did the same too, I tried to give it a chance and I can't get past the part with Bob Newhart (and I love Bob Newhart)... but I can't believe people chose CITH over LTBIA. It wasn't a perfect movie by any means...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    Off topic as it is, I need MPEGS. For some reason, if I use (and I've always had this problem) WMV, the video breaks and I can only use less than half of it. AVI's used to work from Media converter, now they give me the same sound and nothing that everywhere else does. MPEGS worked fine that...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The only thing I'm interested in is hitting this Looney Tunes film festival at an arthouse theater. Though I doubt I'm going to be able to get there in the week they're doing it.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Would Super Grover 2.0 even have enough footage for a DVD? They're only about 5 minutes long, and there aren't really that many of them. I love them and all, but I'd rather see an Ernie and Bert's Great Adventures volume 2. Mostly because we're missing quite a few of those on American television.

    Help Sesame Street get 1 Billion Views on YouTube

    The really sad thing is this. Youtube's view counts are screwy. People are getting a lot less views than they should be. The number of views they have are exactly the same as it was 24 hours ago, and you'd think it would have at least increased by a hundred views. It didn't even count the...

    When you need to rant...

    It happens the one time I don't. And in places where the floor doesn't look especially bad. I got a really big bad one in my hand grabbing something with a wooden handle (can't remember if it was a broom or shovel)... hurt like you'd expect, but it was large enough to get out easily. The...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    I read that Tim Allen was supposed to be the Cat in the Hat. I shudder to think if that would be better or worse. Martin Short does a great job with the character. Too bad the project he's playing him in is so meh. As for the movie, it's not every day you see critics wish everyone involved...

    Here's my rant. I'm SICK of getting microscopic splinters in my foot! Especially under layers of dead skin. I gotta take a belt sander to the floors over here.

    That site refuses to work on my computer. It's not even the Java, cuz I had that checked.

    Too bad one of the episodes was made to help kids deal with if a loved one gets cancer.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Agreed. I'd actually buy and sit through an Elmo's Musical DVD. I don't even try to acknowledge Elmo's World. It's an unsegment, and hopefully the book is closed on it once and for all. Elmo the Musical is surprisingly enjoyable and cleverly written. Elmo's World desperately wants to be...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    Like I said before... why do they bother making 90 minute movies off of kid's books? There's barely enough story for a half hour cartoon, and some of the stuff they have to add to pad the story out either sort of works in the context of alternate character interpretation or falls flat for...
