    Speed Racer the Movie, Your Thoughts

    Ahem.. of course the characters look nothing like the original. they aren't the original characters. They're the second generation. But then again, the 1993 American Speed Racer character Designs were hit or miss. Trixie was terrible. She was made into a Blonde (American. Hah!) with ugly...

    *Sigh* It's That Time of the Decade Again...

    Congress has been eyeballing PBS for years now. When we're talking about useless wastes of tax payer money, how come they look the other way at $9000 dollar Hammers, funding for the Naming everything after Ronald Regan for no apparent reason Foundation, and the buttering up foreign dignitaries...

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    At least that's forgivable. The WB isn't making money off them one way or the other, and neither is that animator. I think it's very disappointing when they do this sort of thing. but then again, I just watch Multiple Rescue Rangers episodes today, and I'm surprised Disney hasn't done...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Least Talked about? When we need a good example of a bad example, we always bring up Oz! :D He wasn't in it at all. Can't say I'd blame him. It was Eric Jacobson at all points, and he really has come a long way. The movie was produced by three companies, Henson, Fox, and Disney...

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    Oh God! Don't tell me they're doing that pathetic "We can't release it on DVD, we don't want to air it on TV, but if someone puts it on Youtube, we gotta take it down fast" crap.

    Elmo, Ready for Action! and his Overdominance

    Wait and see is all I can see. In fact, she had a parade balloon before Elmo ever did. And I'm not talking about these. And I've seen entire lines of Party hats and gear like that that feature only Abby, while even Elmo had to share his with Ernie, Bert, Oscar, and Big Bird. So, we can't...

    My Theory On Elmo

    Who's responsible? Why, the kids of course. Why on Earth would they try to force something on kids if they don't like it? They'd change the channel in a micro second, they would. It's like, why is Survivor still on the air? Because people watched it, and they are still watching it...

    Retro Commercials--What's the Attraction?

    Funny thing is that we always had these healthy food and healthy life style PSA's, and they seemed to play allong the junk food ads with no problem at all. Due to all this obesity hysteria, they have to eliminate the junk food commercials. And while I can go on about how that brought the...

    Speed Racer the Movie, Your Thoughts

    Vince Vaugn? UCK! Personally, I'm glad they've gone with a lot of young unknowns. That's the only way to do it. If you fill it full of various different irrellivant celebrities, you'll make it a farce. At least the people they picked look like a close approximation to their cartoon...

    What DVD Boxsets do you own?

    Hmmm... Inspector Gadget Volume 1 (of one :mad: ) BBC's Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy (the second disk is just extras) Darkwing Duck, Volumes 1 and 2 Super Mario Super Show 1 and 2 Rocky and Bullwinkle vol 1 and 2 (unfortunately haven't been able to get volume 3) Sesame Street Old...

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    If I can recall off the top of my head, Alvin was talking about how flat and ugly that 50's Dave's hair was, and said something about using hair Mousse. That's basically a 1980's/90's term for hair gel. I haven't heard anyone use it since.

    Gas Boycott

    And take a wild guess who's funding the "research" for these alternative fuels? The gas and oil companies. It's like when Tabacco Companies fund health research. They have clear and specific reasons for taking so long, if you know what I mean. Personally, I think it's rediculous we scoff...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    Well, we'd get a re-recording of the song to fit the movie, but I doubt they'd change it Much. In the Fat Albert Movie, for example, they just arranged some of the song differently, and they changed one lyric... and not by much, either. Oddly, just removing a referrence to Bill Cosby. That's...

    Gas Boycott

    hey, if they could give us cheaper oil, we should just suck it the heck up and say, "hey, if we take it from, them, a gallon of Milk won't wind up too much for families to afford." However, if it was an ultra-conservative dictatorship, we'd be the best of friends with them. Go figure.

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    Actually, the Chipmunks rapping is NOTHING new. Check out the Chipmunks go to the Movies episode "Back to Alvins Future". Rapping gets them in trouble in the past, before it existed. And of course, the ending of the Chipmunks anniversary special in the 90's. They had a Christmas Rap piece...

    Muppet Kubrick Collection

    They're the ones that come in the larger boxes, and I think they may be arcade prizes or something, but that was years and years ago.

    Gas Boycott

    Yeah, but even then, they still take quite a bit of gas to run, otherwise. Anyway, I may not be a big fan of Hillary (Politics later, not in this thread) but I really loved what she said about the OPEC being a monopoly cartelle. I mean, trace the money that goes into oil, and you'll see what...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets From Space

    Once you find out what the movie could have been, it does make you more dissappointed. But I have to say, I enjoyed it quite a bit. Saw it twice in the theaters. unfortunately, they were the cheaper theaters, packed with screaming kids. Every problem with that film was conceptual. They...
