    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    Hoodwinked Too was super duper screwed by the distribution company. It should have been much better than it turned out. It had a better script going in than the finished project gave us. The original writer was none too happy about how it turned out. Hopefully there won't be a third. At...

    Speculation: Potential Sequel for "The Muppets"

    Agreed fully. As long as they don't get Rob Schneider back for this film, I see nothing even questionable, let alone objectionable. This film will be at least on the same level as the last one, and the general consensus is that it was the best of the modern era films. That's all I need to go...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    I think people expected Ralph to jump from game to game to game and becoming the hero of one of them. The previews made it seem that Hero's Duty was supposed to be the end of the film, at least it was like that to me. But I think they had a superior plotline of him jumping one game, and...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    It was the best Disney CGI studio original I've seen. And, quite honestly, this is the first time a Disney original outshined a Pixar film. I like Brave and all, but it didn't quite deliver what it could have. It was pretty much my favorite animated movie of the year. I will say a lot of the...

    New Book: The 12 Days of a Muppet Christmas

    These are drawn by Amy, after all. I always said her stuff would be great for kid's book illustrations. You know, I can never find these things no matter where I look. Guess the internet is the best place to get them.

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    To be fair, he absolutely hated that one. And for the guy behind Jar Jar Binks to hate something, you KNOW something's terrible. And the worst part is, it's all in canon. That said, it's not the only dopey Star Wars related thing that Lucas hated. This one he didn't even create...Jaxxon The...

    The 2012 Presidential Election: Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama

    Israel's government doesn't like anyone who doesn't let them do whatever they want. Iran's flag might as well be the Trollface. They want a war with Israel soooo bad. They just replace "I *&&^%%ed your mom last night" with "there was no Holocaust." What REALLY honks me off are all these big...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    These were pretty much the most stunning visuals I've seen in a CGI movie all year. And I'm not going to lie, they all were spectacular looking, though Brave spent too much time in the dark woods and the dark castle. The one thing I quite enjoyed seeing, but didn't feel they utilized enough...

    The Felix The Cat Thread

    Felix talked since the advent of Talkies, so it shouldn't be too strange. Most people seem to remember him from the King Features cartoons, and everything in the franchise seems to be a direct nod to that. Other than the Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat (and even in that case, Poindexter was in...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    We have no story yet. You can't judge the project when there's not even a story attached yet. I'm sure they're smart enough not to Hangover 2 and make them lose Nemo again. There was that Boom 4 issue comic "Losing Dory," so I'm sure they're not going to do that one. Pixar has been good with...

    When you need to rant...

    GAW... and I hate when people put such hateful comments that don't need them. I was watching 2 seconds of a Battle of the Planets before reading some far right idiot's comments about "Ah, those were the days before gay marriage" or something to that extent. And NEVER EVER watch an old cartoon...

    Disney in talks to acquire Hasbro

    Nah, it's all a rumor. Nothing to worry about for now. Not the characters. Not at all. There's a list somewhere either on Cracked or TVtropes or somewhere that mentioned all the little call backs and continuity nods and Mythology gags. I just can't find it at the moment. They had stuff...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    I don't mind as long as we get a story that needs a sequel. There are films that have better stories in the second film, especially since they got all the establishment stuff out of the way. Kung Fu Panda 2 was a far deeper and darker movie than the first. The villain of the first one was...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The thing is, they don't even make G films anymore unless they're preschool fodder, like Oogieloves. When they gave Finding Nemo a rerelease, it was rated PG, even thought it was initially rated G. There's some conspiracy theory out there that it's the reason kid's movies have toilet humor in...

    You're open to your review (you're probably the only one that didn't like it, though), but there's three points I want to make. Heed the PG. This is the problem I have with PG movies being G movies with 'tude. There was NO way that Madagascar 3 should have been rated PG. The movie, while...

    TV Alert: Sesame Street Hurricane Special on Friday November 9

    They did the right thing in only dealing with the aftermath of the hurricane, and not showing the entire process. The message was to comfort kids after it happened, not warn them for next time. It would have been great to see Kermit, sure, but I don't see any reason to show what a hurricane...

    Disney in talks to acquire Hasbro

    There's so many of them that are in name only and don't do the research. Even if a film isn't that great, I'll give it credit for doing research. Inspector Gadget failed on that level. Metro City was replaced with Riverton, no exploding messages, the real world Brain and Mad Cat (a White cat...

    West Nile, Swine Flu, Meningitis, and Sequelitis

    It's natural to want a sequel. You get involved with characters for 90+ minutes and you want the story to continue. Movies usually have a sequel hook, anyway. The question really is if we'll get the sequel we'll deserve or something like Cars 2, which seems like a comic book adaption/Saturday...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I hope the second Hotel is better. I've been saying this all thread, but Gennedy needs to call in his former Dexter's Lab/Samurai Jack/Symbiotic Titan writers in there. I liked Hotel, but the writing was all over the place, and it seemed like something Adam Sandler used as an ego piece (yet...

    The 2012 Presidential Election: Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama

    I've been saying that for years. Libertarianism is closer to core Conservatism, but instead of Republicans fleeing the party for the Libertarian party, the Republican party became poseur Libertarians. The Neo-Cons (rich schmucks that pretend to be conservatives until one of their pet projects...
