    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.

Should the Looney Tunes Show be/been rated TV-G?

    I remember hearing some complaints online about the Looney Tunes Show being rated TV-PG. But truth be told, at times the show doesn't seem very TV-PG -like material to me. Especially when there's worse stuff on the same channel that's rated TV-Y7-FV or something.
    An example? "Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated." It is rated TV-Y7-FV, yet it's much darker, and contains scenes of extreme violence and some sexual innuendos, not to mention more frightening villains and situations (even if they're still fake), and people actually DIE on this show too (I'm not gonna spoil anything here.)
    But "The Looney Tunes Show" has almost none of that (with the exception of "Eligible Bachelors," which has a small bit of violence on part with SD:MI.) Did they just accidentally switch the ratings for both shows? In most cases, a simple TV-G would work better with "The Looney Tunes Show." Even the most recent episode, "Spread Those Wings and Fly," had pretty much nothing that would gain it a TV-PG rating.
    Then there was also when Boomerang reran "Wait Till Your Father Gets Home." The content on that show is definitely PG (as it was meant for prime time back in 1972), but when Boomerang reran it, they rated it TV-Y7!

    Or maybe I'm just crazy. But then again, if "Itchy and Scratchy" had a TV parental guideline rating, it'd probably also be TV-Y7-FV (as it also contains "fantasy violence" and is shown as part of the Krusty the Clown Show!)
