    You WIll Need To Reset Your Password!!!

    We just moved hosts on this system, and this has caused a few updates. One is the way we encode and store the encoded passwords.

    Your old passwords will NOT work. You will need to reset your password. This is normal. Just click on reset password from the log in screen. Should be smooth as silk to do...

    Sorry for the hassle.

    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.

    Disney To Feast In France

    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.

    I'm looking for a cartoon I saw in high school. I was in the 10th or 11th grade in 1998, and my history teacher showed the class this cartoon, but I can't for the life of me remember too much about it, or the subject matter. From what I recall, the cartoon was set on an island, and I think they were trying to industrialize it or something. I don't know, I remember there was one character cutting down the trees, but that's about all I can tell you. The animation style looked like something Jay Ward might have done, but I'm not sure on that. All I can tell you is that the cartoon didn't look like it was made in 1998. It looked more 1960's-1970's-ish. Any help on the matter is appreciated!

    Sounds like it might be the Russian cartoon, Island (1974). It got a home video release and was shown in The Independent Film Channel in the late 1990s in a package called Masters of Russian Animation.

    Here's the short on YouTube:
