    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.

    The Phantom Tollbooth (70)
    a.k.a. The Adventures of Milo in the Phantom Tollbooth

    (Live action-part)
    Milo is a typical brooding kid, bored with his life, until he gets an unexpected package. It's a small car and a magical tollbooth, that's the doorway to another world.

    (Animated)
    His otherworldly trip includes many life lessons he must learn to become a well rounded and more mature individual.
    He meets several characters on the other side that are the living embodiments of puns. His faithful friend, Tock-(the watch dog that never allows him to forget that time is a precious resource), The Humbug-(A large,self-important bug with lots to say, but everything he has to say amounts to nothing). The WhetherMan-( A man who seems to be preoccupied with making decisions), The Spelling Bee...self explanatory, and several others.

    One of his first obstacles is the swamp of the Doldrums. The inhabitants of the Doldrums are a lethargic bunch of swamp dwellers(drips or droops characters). They much rather lay about sloth-like then put forth any effort. Milo begins to fall under their influence and sink into the swamp. As he does, he looses his drive and focus.
    His traveling companion Tock the watch-dog , (He's literally part watch), is there to bring him back to his senses. Milo's able to break free of the muck and mire with a little mental exercise and carry on.

    He finds two kingdoms on the brink of chaos. The land of letters and the kingdom of numbers. Only the princesses of the two lands (Princess Rhyme and Princess Reason) can bring peace to the land, but they've gone missing. Milo and friends go out on a quest to find Rhyme and Reason and return them to their kingdoms.

    Milo and his traveling companions later meet a blank faced character, The Terrible Trivium. A faceless person who suggests they engage themselves in pointless tasks that focus on the small things instead of continuing their quest.
