Cool. Thus far, I've really enjoyed all the new specials, so here's hoping the next ones don't dissapoint! :) Think the series may have burned itself out trying to do the Saturday-morning series (which also just transcripted four-panel shorts). The new comic-transcript specials are.... okay , but t...

It looks almost as bad as that "Ratatoing" movie! :P (y'know that rat rip off film from Canada? :roll: :wink:) Curses!--You beat me to the mention! :D Interesting that Pixar now seems to be the target of the entire offshore video-knockoff industry, rather than all those generic GoodTime videos of H...

First thing I thought: it's that same heavy block font that all animated films seem to have to use. And there's still not enough animated touches here. Where <I>is</I> the fairytale princess. We need to see some combination posters coming on. Animated Giselle with Patrick Dempsey for example.. If y...

I probably would be, had I seen that episode... Must watch it soon! It's a must-watch episode (or at least, the first part of the two-parter is, haven't seen the second): The SP episode was supposed to parody the Mohammed-cartoon headlines, but decided to take a poke at FG's bewilderingly random, r...

When You Wish lawsuit
Variety indicates that the music publishing house Bourne Co. is suing Fox Broadcasting due to the Family Guy song parody I Need a Jew, set to the tune of When You Wish Upon A Star. Bourne believes that Fox has harmed the classic Pinocchio song’s reputation by associating it with a “vile and anti-Se...

Hmmm King Features... I'd bet we're going to see a lot more from the WB/KFS relationship from now on. Popeye opened the floodgates! Actually, Peanuts are United Feature Syndicate, the other comic-strip guys (or United Media, now that they handle the Schulz licenses), the home of Garfield and Cathy....

Peanuts Properties Pulled from Paramount, Goes to Warner & Announces 2 Remastered DVDs -- Yay, I'm very exited about this! Hopefully box sets will follow. Warner's hope is to dump all the "lesser" specials in boxset toon-collections for bulk sale, after the proven holiday sellers. (And you wouldn't...

Probably, and not in the good way-- One of my complaints with "Corpse Bride" was that Burton came onto Johnson's film as a rewrite...And it looked like Warner got name-happy at the sound of "Tim Burton" and "Stop-motion" and too forcibly tried to shoehorn it into a NBX2. But Elman's score on NBX1 ju...

That's so cool that you made that Shadow connection, EricJ. :) It makes a lot of sense. Also, yeah, Begins needed a much stronger villain. (Scarecrow, like Venom in SM3 , should have been the whole show . :roll: Why do all these filmmakers always fall in love with the LAME villain? :P ) Actually, S...

So...simply, it's going to be someone with a Nightmare connection. Could it be the sequel we've heard rumors about since the video game came out a couple of years ago? I know that was a starting point to generating ideas to put on film. As David says above, it wouldn't be a conikidink that Nightmar...

If they'd meant Tim Burton (as AICN is obsessed with thinking they did), they would've said Tim Burton, as there'd be no problem with the Nightmare Before Xmas plug... Not as many people remember that NBX was technically a Henry Selick film, though, and saying "From the director of 'James & the Gian...

It's the selling as a movie that hurts these things. Even "Belle's Magical World". Remember that one? That was for a failed B&TB TV show that never ran. Not to mention "Kronk's New Groove", which seems to be the failed tie-in series we would have gotten if they hadn't gone with "Emperor's New Schoo...

As for Robinsons' old release date, keep in mind that it would have then faced Night at the Museum, which, domestically, was the second biggest film of 2006. Charlotte's Web competed against Museum for family audiences and ended up with about $15 million less than what Robinsons earned. True but......
