    Other Side Of Maleficent

    I have been looking forward to Maleficent with equal amounts of anticipation and dread. On one hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, so cold and so pure, and I want desperately to see more of her and her back-story. On the other hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, and I would hate to see her parodied, taken lightly or ultimately destroyed in a film that does not understand this great character. The good news is that this film almost gets it right; but that is also the bad news.

    The follow up to Disney’s 2013 Academy Award Winning short Paperman has been announced, and it will premiere at France’s Annecy International Animated Film Festival. Titled The Feast, the short looks to be based on the same stylized CG techniques used on last years Paperman, a more natural and hand-drawn look to computer animation.

    Renegades of Animation: Pat Sullivan

    Pat Sullivan became famous worldwide for his creation of Felix the Cat. What most animation histories gloss over is Sullivan’s checkered past and longtime standing as a wildcat renegade. He didn’t follow the rules. And he made damn sure to fully protect his intellectual properties.

    Since Easter is close at hand, I decided to compile a list of the ten greatest bunnies from H-B. There were one-shots from "Jonny Quest," "Superfriends," and "Goober And The Ghost Chasers," but these didn't really do much. So here are the ones who really played active roles:

    10. Flap Jack, "Rapid Romance,." This was the outlaw rabbit mentioned in my thread of the top 100 H-B couples.

    9. Ricochet Rabbit's Mexican cousin. Oh, if only I could remember his name. It was he who arrested El Loco Lobo when Ricochet and Droop A Long couldn't cross the border.


    8. Magic Rabbit, "Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics." He and The Great Fondoo were among those created for the Really Rottens.

    7. Texas Jack, "Abbott And Costello."

    6. The March Hare, "Alice In Wonderland, Or What's A Nice Kid Like You Doing In A Place Like This?"

    5. Bunny Hug, "Rapid Romance." The only female rabbit from the studio.

    4. The White Rabbit, also from H-B's "Alice In Wonderland,"

    3. The un-named rabbit from "The Thanksgiving That Almost Wasn't." It was he who rallied the other animals to attack the wolf, before realizing that only Jeremy Squirrel could save the boys.

    2. Ricochet Rabbit.

    1. Tie: The Easter Bunny, "Yogi The Easter Bear," and Velvie from "The Velveteen Rabbit." Now it wouldn't be fair not to put the Easter Bunny at the top, would it? Also, I liked "The Velveteen Rabbit" when I was a kid.

    Didn't they change his name to Brak the Rabbit in the later eposodes? (Since all he ever said was "Brak!".)

    If so, I have no way of knowing.

    Nope...He was always known as "Magic Rabbit" throughout the "Laff-A-Lympics" series. No doubt, he gave some interesting interviews with Snagglepuss and Mildew Wolf after the sporting events were done...not. :)

    For the heck of it, in the "Challenge of the Super Friends" episode "Fairy Tale of Doom", Wonder Woman, who was trapped in the story "Alice in Wonderland" by the Cheetah by way of Toyman's storybook trapping device, spots the March Hare as the first character she sees in her Wonderland journey. It goes downhill for Wonder Woman from there.

    Since your memory of this series seems to be better than mine...

    I swear I also remember Mumbly being called Muttley in the later episodes. (At that time I didn't know about "The Wacky Races", so the different name made no sense to me.) Is my memory faulty on this "remembrance" as well?

    Mumbly was always Mumbly.

    Muttley did appear in a cameo on one episode when he and Mumbly did a switcheroo in another successfully patented Really Rottens cheating maneuver and high fiving each other and snickering. It was revealed that Muttley and Mumbly were brothers.

    No, Bluto and Brutus were the same guy. Their names were just changed.

    However, Bluto does have a sister: Blutessa, who paired with Bluto in a mixed doubles tennis match versus Popeye and Olive. And she must be his sister: she's almost a clone of Bluto, except for the tennis skirt, and that she shaves daily. o_O

    One of the Popeye comic books published by Ocean Comics in the late 1980's had a storyline (written by Bill Pearson) in which Bluto and Brutus were twin brothers. I believe it was accepted as "canon" by King Features Syndicate, and was later incorporated into the comic strip.
