It wasn't filmed in 3D, and that pretty much says everything about it right there.

The 3D recreations of Melies' old films in Hugo, but that's sort of cheating since it's still recreating something from 100 years ago.

2004. I was 11. A new show called Fullmetal Alchemist is about to premiere on Adult Swim. All I've heard of it is that it's apparently a fighting shounen like Dragonball Z or Yuyu Hakusho only a bit more violent. Needless to say, if the first scene didn't get me questioning the accuracy description, poor little Nina…

Henry Selick is on Disney's employ now. They have to give this to him.

Jim Carrey might be the issue. Not his performance (he was actually pretty perfect for the role) but the fact that after Ace Ventura 2 he basically decided he wasn't going to star in any more sequels to his films (and thus why we got When Harold Met Lloyd and Evan Almighty). So that might have killed the chances of…

Animated series by Bruce Timm on HBO or Adult Swim. I will accept nothing else. Too episodic to work for movies, and too artistically wild for any sort of live-action adaptation.

But Aardman also made this: http://www.cartoonnetwork.c…

Very curious as to how they'd market "An Adventure With Communists" in the States. I mean, this film alone will probably be all over FOX News once they realize Darwin's a character.

That'd be weird, since he's working with Dreamworks now.

Then how do you know it's crap?

Have you read it?

I've read the first two so far. Very good and stylistically weird enough I can see Kauffman doing great with it.

Also, Dexter and Computress Get Mandark.

Green Lantern: The Animated Series deserves to be somewhere on that list.

My crazy theory: Amon's family got involved in whatever happened to Ursa and the firebender who burned Amon's face was working for Zuko. Revenge led to finding Zuko which led to finding Aang which led to figuring out whatever spirit-bendy thing he was doing in this episode.

Amon has eyes beneath the mask. When Koh steals faces, he steals everything. Not Koh.

With MLP, though, the specific focus on social lessons in a fun way makes it popular with that crowd. And cartoons in general tend to be more popular among Aspies than among the general population (especially anime).

Sherlock Gnomes.

Wait, were there any human characters in Wind and the Willows? If not, what's the live-action going to be? Just backgrounds? Or are there going to be real animals with creepily CG-ed on clothes and faces?

There's already a near-perfect Purim movie. It's called Inglourious Basterds. Think about it: beautiful Jewish woman pretending to be a Gentile throws a party for genocidal rulers that leads to bloody revenge. Almost the same story transposed into a different setting. And Purim plays are always comedic despite all the…
