Dammit! I TOLD my brother not to post that picture on Facebook!

I'm not traumatized at all! *turns away, bangs plates against head*

Nope - it was my mom, desperately seeking ways to make other people responsible for my ass!

They did! A car lurked a few blocks back. I thought it was fun because I got it right every time - I have pretty good visual recall, even as a kid. But, still, kind of alarming!

I was given this experiment at UCSB in the early 1970s, when I was a wee bairn. I did other experiments for the psych department over the years, culminating in one where they'd show me slides of streets in a room, then drive me out to the actual streets, drop me off and I'd have to find my way according to the images…

Ohhhh slooooow tracking shot following Cap as he strolls by an Acura dealership, takes a look, camera lingers on whatever the model is they're shilling....blegh.

I wish there was a way to avoid such ham-fisted product placement. It really takes away from the poignancy of the idea of the displaced character.

We always talk about lolcats or dolphins planning to be our overlords, but IMHO corvids should NEVER be underestimated.

Meh these are too hipster for me. Played-out Neutra font, mid-century colors, doesn't relate at all to the sturm und drang kind of visuals of the books or show - and there should be SOME meaningful connection, at least.

Geez, go BYU animation! Nicely done!

I've been in the room with that toolbag. He's basically coked to the gills, runs around frantically, confuses your brain and somehow makes you think everything he's saying is awesome...so, yeah, I could see how a bunch of execs who think he's 'creative' could be fooled!

Sorry, but....Meyer has been working on a mermaid book for several years. GET READY FOR THE WHIRLWIND TO BE REAPED.

SUUUUUMMER!!!!

Thank god you put this otter up. Only now have I been able to get online and see the sorrowful parade of shit coming down the pipe today...thank you for keeping me going this afternoon with my memories of how, as a kid, I firmly believed I would someday have an otter just like this one living in my bathtub.

Nope! Guy knew what he wanted from the jump. There is a particular way we are taught to paint in terms of creating imagery for animation or matte paintings - using a specific selection of hues, creating light and shadow a certain way, etc. He's basically doing it, times ten. Best part of his 'artwork': in the mall…

He went to my alma mater, Art Center College of Design, so he's technically trained very well; however, you could also say he took that training and bastardized the shit out of it by taking a sensible, thoughtful approach to light and color and exaggerating it to the point of silliness for no other purpose than to…

Cyriaque, may I borrow 'wax galactic'? Many thanks.

Meta!

All I know about purring and healing is when I used to feel sick, my cat flopped on my stomach purring was the equivalent of my mom putting me on top of the dryer as a baby to quiet my colic...worked like a charm.

I enjoyed his filmic version better than the book (and it's sequel), even!
