The future isn't just the internet. The future is a combination of the two. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of technological things that are making how we get our media different, and making other things obsolete. Magazines are closing up shop, Mad only publishes half of what they ever did. But...

We have more cable channels and more movies are being made. There's more of a crap ratio because things are quite different now. But even if everything did indeed suck, people really like to react to it as "End of the world" stuff that can hurt them. There's a LOT of stuff that would point to...

There's a lot of garbage out there... but try and tell me that the Chris Nolan Batman movies aren't proof a Super Hero movie can be good, and certainly a lot better than those Joel Shumacker jokes. I mean, I can sort of enjoy Batman Forever, but I hate how they portrayed Harvey Dent/Two-Face...

It's not this forum. It's EVERYWHERE. Every doofus that thinks their cartoons are better than everyone elses, and they comment on the WORST cartoons out there (Maxies World? Really? That's our crowing achievement?) There are things I'll agree to as a matter of taste. Some things are not...

I'm taking this completely out of another thread because, even I the grand grouch complainer am sick of this... Why does everyone have to overreact to bad swings in entertainment like they were signs of the Apocalypse when, if that was really true, the world would have ended in the 50's...

Fine, I'll just go back to the real maturity of this thread and whine about television shows that I'm not going to watch because they come out of the television and physically beat the crap out of me and kill my family. You know... smart talk. I hate SuperWhy because the characters literally...

I'd mock the left if they did something. It's not right wing politics that bugs me, it's this whole "We love our corporate overloards" crap. These overloards control ALL parties. Right, left, indie... we don't even have capitalism. We have corporate socialism. A system made to just give OUR...

No... it's a political statement you don't agree with. I'm sorry you don't, I do not mean to offend... but there are a LOT of acts of stupidity that's tearing this country apart, and the least of our worries is a stupid TV show on a stupid fringe network that's of note for not having...

Yeah. FCC requirements. They have to have 3 hours of educational programming, and they usually just pass the buck and air pre-existing programming so they don't have to come up with new programming. Basically, the laziest job in the world you can get is major network Saturday Morning...

Because only some of them even work like that anymore. Chuck Lorre is the ONLY one who can make a decent laugh track sitcom. How I Met your Mother has one, but the story is too deep for me to to even notice, and half the time I actually forget it even has one. It's one of those things that...

It really seems like a wasted concept. Just one of many casualties of having so much happen in a single movie. It's not so much that me Party was bad, it just seemed like that would have been a better opportunity to address the problem of Gary being torn between his girlfriend and his brother...

That's part of it... it's actually because that there was no logical way to market the movie. They couldn't release the thing because they couldn't make a trailer that made any sense or even hinted that the film was a satire. And as we all know, the most important thing about movies is to...

Sesame Street has just officially uploaded "Subway" Unlike the others, there's a a little extra of Bert standing alone holding one of those straps... So... yay for 2 seconds of extra filler footage that was edited on the television version.

I wouldn't know exactly about that. I know accounts that had multiple blocked videos that managed to stay up for a while.

I don't even get half the bacon stuff. Is it supposed to be some subtle satire of how we eat crappy stuff that makes us fat? Some sort of comfort food thing? Is it that hipster irony? Or is it some dumb foodie thing to shove something considered low class into every high end food? What the...

Even then, I don't buy the "my Rainman-esque 3 year old demands to see Secret Agent Oso at 2 in the morning" stuff. And if it's that midnight feeding jazz, you could put on a test pattern. Kids aren't that developed to get any benefit from those shows yet.

Yeah, that's studio meddling. There's a LOT of insane politicking behind that. I actually think I heard Disney pulled stuff from Netflix, I'm guessing because they didn't accept an offer that's way too generous to begin with. Still, you'd think with such a warm reception of the DVD release...

It depends on the company. Like I said, there's ALWAYS the option to co-sponser the thing, add an advertisement and say "contains content from." I've never gotten an actual strike, but a LOT of contains content from co-sponsers. I'm really greatful to how much of a sense of humor Classic...

One more non-political thing to add to the rant... It's Spike TV. Does anyone give a rat's crap about what's on Spike TV? The network that foisted Stripperella on the world. At best the network had reruns of Ren and Stimpy and Star Trek TNG. And that was at the beginning. Like what on...

The hot thing in the industry is 24/7 preschool programming for some insane reason. The original version of Noggin got it right. Preschool programming until mid-afternoon, older kid programming until midnight, late night classics for those willing to wake up late and watch/video tape/DVR...
