    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Actually, it cost us our standing in the world, our safety, and more money than we can even count... most of it "lost" and a good chunk of it went back into the hands of the very same terrorists we were trying to destroy. China got ALL the oil we could have got... but then again, most of this...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Would that be anything like blogging about how much they hated Bush? Seriously. The only protests people listen to in this country are pro-government and/or pro-establishment. Facts: Peace Protesters made a lot of loud noise and Bush still got re-elected in 2004. Tea party people whined and...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    But when they do, no one listens to them because they don't have a media exploitable cause. The whole peace protest thing was bull honking crap, disorganized and all... and a LOT of people became disillusioned from it. I NEVER bother with this crap because it only makes a difference if the...

    "The Muppets: The Pig with the Froggy Tattoo" Teaser Trailer Online

    Why is it the parody trailers ALWAYS show better footage than the real trailers?

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    At the root, everyone wants the same thing, but they want polar opposites of how to get it. I don't think ANYONE wants wasteful government spending. It all takes away from the spending we need. The only reason we wanted to go to war was because loudmouths were getting on our case, milking a...

    California Raisins supposedly hitting DVD

    Box art Gee... I hope they can clear ALL those music rights. I watched a grainy video online of an episode, and it had 3 musical numbers alone.

    The best and worst uses of Flash animation

    It was more of a switch to digital animation than flash.

    The best and worst uses of Flash animation

    I'd say PPG, Dexter, and some of the others of that era are more of a UPA/Jay Ward/Total Television/Gene Deitch style than Flash. They were very bouncy with those designs. Some flash looks a might rigid. Phineas and Ferb... I don;t know what I'd call it. It's more abstract than just the UPA...

    The Muppet Show...Continued?

    The only time Dr. Teeth's band was replaced during Henson's time was for Jim Henson Hour... but that entire show went off in a completely different direction from the Muppet Show. After his time, the band was replaced due to a recasting issue. Teeth and Janice yet to find a permanent recast...

    Jim Henson's "Starboppers"

    As I said before, they should have saved this for after Fraggle Rock ended. This really seems like it could have been the next great follow up. I really like the character design of that only character they finished... too bad the other doodles and sketches didn't come up yet (or did they?)...

    The Muppet Show...Continued?

    That was the one where they took the show to a train station, right? Yeah, I love the concepts of that one... of course, I think the concepts used in the Steve Martin episode kinda hurt the episode's potential. Meanwhile, you have the John Cleese episode, where the guest and the concepts work...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    The thing is, both sides do a great job shoving their crap down everyone's throats. Every side wants to play the victim card, and the only difference between the left and the right on this is that pundits on the right just write more and more books about how much of victims they are. After...

    What is your favorite Sid and Marty Krofft shows?

    Probably because Uncle Croc was more of a snarky comedic show, and he got to really have fun with it... or something. Or maybe Lou was just nicer to him than the Kroffts? I dunno...

    ANOTHER Muppet T-Shirt Design Contest

    I just had a thought... if someone submitted something to the other, would they then be disqualified? Especially if it was someone who had a top design in the last contest. I'm sure somehow, there would be something on some level, either by site management or by the other submitters. I bet...

    What is your favorite Sid and Marty Krofft shows?

    Yeah. That show really was amazing. Too bad all I ever saw of it was Wacky and Packy (which isn't really that funny... but then again, the DVD I bought that had them on it had multiple problems anyway)... I did see some Fraidy Cats, which were remarkably better (and I'm guessing the first time...

    The Muppet Show...Continued?

    Any time they had a bad guest or one I just couldn't connect with, or worse... didn't know because I wasn't alive in the 70's, the show just felt... off. Especially when they talked to the Muppets. However, stuff like Pigs in Space, The Swedish Chef, and Bear on Patrol are always good. Now...

    The best and worst uses of Flash animation

    There's a difference. Flash animation in relation to television and computer animation are actually quite different things. A lot of the Flash used on television I see looks like internet cartoons from the early part of last decade. Meanwhile, a lot of the newer flash animations I see hitting...

    The Muppet Show...Continued?

    The writers didn't find their footing until... (Wait for it...) THE LAST EPISODE! It was canceled once they found the voice for the show. How much does that sting? :news: I mean, not so much the tone, but to take the element of not having them stuck in the theater, fawning over one...

    The best and worst uses of Flash animation

    Well, Wiki isn't exactly the most relyable thing out there... but it IS possible to animate traditionally IN Flash. Remember, it's a program, a tool. In fact, a lot of so called traditional animation is computer assisted, in coloring, editing, and animation. You can even just flat out...

    What is your favorite Sid and Marty Krofft shows?

    You know what I wanna check out? Those live action Filmation action shows from the 1970's. They actually look quite good. I've seen a couple of the live action Ghost Busters episodes, though. Pretty funny stuff.
