Yuzo Koshiro rocks so hard. Even his Wangan Midnight soundtracks rule.

Toast Of London, Peep Show, Detectorists, and No Activity coming out at the end of the year are really making it hard to finalize year-end lists. *shakes fist at foreign television*

It's rarer these days that musicians cross over to the media, so he's incredibly articulate.

Spoilers: it's phenomenal. Milwaukee was the final warm-up for the Chicago taping, and he was on point in every respect.

That character doesn't work without Foray's total lack of guile. The 1 weakness I thought Warner Brothers' Looney Tunes shorts had were that they never had a funny, sweet straight man. The closest we got was Porky Pig, and the worst we got was Tweety Bird. Some Jay Ward sweetness would have been nice.

And as long as we're talking classic comics, I begrudge no person their love for the amazing Foghorn Leghorn, but let's make some time for Jim Woodring's Frank.

The musician-as-technician aspect of the era (in general electronic music, too) is 1 of the most fascinating things. Orchestral is just too easy.

Certainly when it came to pencil and ink! The technical effort is entirely different, but the artistic effect is in pinscreen animation. Those transitional frames don't disappear all at once, they evaporate little by little to awesome results.

Step 1: birth a human.
Step 2: wait between 18 and 40 years.
Step 3: motion-capture that son of a bitch.
Step 4: ART.

It took me a second to figure out what people meant by, "Oh, the animation looks so much BETTER in H.D.!" It's certainly, um, clearer, the true measure of artistry.

If there's 1 group that has no political clout, it's teachers unions.

Naw, it's pretty easy to criticize people who give cover to those who are responsible for our K3-12 education system being a tire fire while also drowning states fiscally.

You're aware that you're The A.V. Club, right, where the anthropology of conservatives is guaranteed hundreds of misguided comments?

For once, the highest profile artistic short is also arguably the best, so it should win, which would bring the category to the respectability it once had before the last 10 years happened.

Fundraiser. *slightly smaller head explosion*

Oh, -I- am conservative and adore lots of Walker's work in office. I am someone who hates how many people worship politicians and their power, but I also basically worship Paul Ryan.
