    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    But then again, you look at Tiny Toons... LT purists HATED it (John K ranted like crazy about it), but it reached our audience and everyone loves it. It's one of the hugest fan bases of a long cancelled cartoon series out there... even bigger than Animaniacs that followed it. Eh... of course...

    TeeNick adds "90's block", ratings success

    Arthur stole the Walter Mitty-esque dream sequences... that's probably why. :news: I don't care what 80's kids say... Nick didn't achieve Nick-ness until the 90's when they did original animation. I've never been a fan of the Kiddy anime they ran, and I always missed out of the wonderful...

    NEW Disney Marvel MUPPET comics!

    Why would you? If you have the comics, you HAVE it already! :crazy: Anything I can say at this point is redundant... I ALWAYS felt this was a stupid idea, I don't know how this is going to appeal to anyone... meanwhile I picked up and thumbed through the Phineas and Ferb Across the Second...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I think everyone's past that. I'm still mixed on it, but the fact being that Fozzie would do something like that. I'm more concerned about the use of the Moopets, because that's going to cause some confusion...

    Someone screaming for Jem DVD's?

    I like shout, but I'm VERY ANNOYED they didn't release any more Inspector Gadget, only for Fox to botch the license. Meanwhile, Mill Creek is releasing a lot of DIC shows in complete sets (if you don't mind the fact they're in envelopes...:rolleyes: ). I know they're supposedly going to...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    But how about the cases when the fans are looking forward to something, and they just don't get that project? The other side of the coin is, what happens when big projects fall through? That's the other side of how depressing it is to be a fan of something. Just this year, Capcom pulled 2...

    "The Muppets" Official US Poster and Standee

    I've been complaining about that for the past several moths, and I don't think it has anything to do with the movie promotion, per se, but the fact that it's QUITE obvious the Pixar and Muppet license were a bundle deal, and when one expired, they both did. Considering how much effort and time...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Yeah, well they also have no problem diverting funds from essential programs to insemination of horses they can profit off of... what does that say to you? It really sucks that the Republican party has to play the religion card all the time. Again, we have the gay Log Cabin Republicans who...

    Hasbro's Sesame line to be unveiled at Toy Fare

    WOW! The Grover's out too? Yeah, it seems we're going to see a lot of these very soon... Maybe September to coincide with Season 42. Target and TRU have been clearing out the last of the FP stuff (I gotta get a Count plush before it's too late), no doubt to make room for Playskool's stuff. I...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    And let's not forget, Shakespeare (if he did write that stuff) did have some lousy plays too. Not everything is gold. There are some Henson projects I don't care for when he was doing them. I honestly wish he could've pitched and did Starboppers after Fraggle Rock (it was pitched in the...

    I won't be posting anymore...

    I'm not leaving just yet. I always threaten to stop doing stuff when I hit a low, but then only manage to come back a day later... I almost stopped doing YTP because of low views, and almost quite my DA account for the same reason... but 5 YTP's and 50 something fan arts later I'm still...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    The only 1960's ones I liked were the experimental ones Chuck Jones did based on avant guarde books. Like the Dot and the Line for example. The ones with Speedy and Daffy are dodgy, especially strange considering those are my two favorite. I find the 90's theatrical ones, while no match at all...

    TeeNick adds "90's block", ratings success

    Yeah... they were planning this stuff for some time. They also have DVD's of certain shows they released to launch this. They have T-Shirts and everything if you look at the right stores (J.C. Penny has them... cheaper than the ones they had at Hot Topic to boot). Too bad there's no toy...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    Thank you! If it's one thing that bugs me it's purists that are afraid of small changes in something that's well done. Look at the new Batman movies. Everyone loved them until some man children that want a very specific version of the character said everything was overrated... now EVERYONE...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    What's the point then? Nothing's as good as anything. New programs don't measure up to anything, new versions of things aren't good. No one's getting a "free ride" because they try! No one can ever measure up to something that's become art. No artist can paint like Leonardo DiVinci, so why...

    The complete and utter futility of being a fan of anything...

    I have no real problem about fan fiction at all. But think about it this way. If they made new episodes of anything based off certain fan fics, the same people who would tend to write those would pan them. Fan fiction/fan art is a WONDERFUL way to keep something going unofficially, don't get...

    This just totally has finally gotten to me. If this sounds negative, well, it's coming from a negative place. Have you ever noticed that in a so called fan base NOTHING is ever good enough for anyone? No matter how much effort goes into something, it's never good enough... and how a labor of...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    That's basically all I was saying. No offense to anyone, but I really can't say I care for anything going down in the party. At the risk of being that guy, all the questions that randomly started up with Obama should have been asked under Bush. Specially the "How are we going to pay for it?"...
