I saw Disney's "Raw Toonage" last Saturday,
and it wasn't funny at all.

It's just not a good year for cartoons.

I caught two of these - the "falling from the airplane" one
and the "who's on the video monitor but..." ones. I don't know
if I missed one or not, but it seems that these are just one
shot stand alone "episodes" of the girl trying to complete a
mission and getting killed at the end.

Did I miss something? Or are these all going to be disjointed
short stories?

SIMPSONS' animation isn't to the par that R&S is.  R&S also is a more
customized show...not a huge staff of people there...so it takes longer
to put them out.

If I make a contract for a piece of (animation/software), and the developer:
- Does not follow the (requirements/storyboard) agreed upon.
- Does not deliver on time, making me miss important deliverables.
I would be very upset.

If Nickeleodeon's right on their claims, I wouldn't blame
them for being mad at Krifaulski.

Then again, I'm sure John K. can come up with yet another twisted and
bizarrely original creation, he's done it before.  It's only too bad
he sold the rights to R&S to Nick the Devil (err, Nickeleodeon) in order
to get wide exposure.

 If not, then perhaps adding .tas would be useful.

  To a point, yes. Problem as I understand it, though, is that John K.
  was doing other 'bad' things too .. things like not getting a
  contracted number of shows finished, or changing shows after the
  storyboard has been improved (which doesn't only deal with censorship,
  it deals with breachment of contract .. the studio's not getting what
  it's paid for.)

  Umm .. I also recall that some time after all the hoopla over the

  inside-joke reference to snorting cocaine, after all ..

  Go figure ..

  Maybe we need not only some more sensitive Big Guys in the industry,

I watch it on channel 25 at 5PM. No problems. You must have cable to right?
(Lucky you.) I know that sometimes stations have trouble if they try to
broadcast the same show via cable as a local station.

Y'know, I've been watching this show since it's premiere last month, and it
has yet to fail to entertain on some level -- not bad, coming from someone
who watches about 2 hours of TV a week.  In a number of ways, I thought this
was one of the better episodes.

Spoilers ahoy


If anything, it seemed that there was a little *too* much going on in this
episode -- it seemed to be sprinting through the whole half hour.  (One
wonders if Bruce Wayne is related to Daniel Day Lewis' Natty Bumpo.)  I kept
wondering if they'd unveiled Killer Croc in an earlier episode, and I'd
missed it (which seemed unlikely).

I won't comment on the animation here -- it struck me as very good (it was
by Spectrum); was *did* impress me was the P.O.V. for the various shots, and
the juxtaposition of the scenes.  Jumping between the boat to the view
through the binoculars to Batman's gritting his teeth (he's going to wear
them down to nubs by December, at this rate) -- good stuff!  I particularly
liked the scenes in the rain -- outside police headquarters, and Thorne's
penthouse; there were some very nice, spooky Batman entrances and other
bits.  Frankly, an imaginative set-up of a sequence with good animation is
more impressive to me than spectacular animation with a standard/banal setup.

Also, there's a theme they've been using in the score to this series that I
never heard in the movies, that has run through two or three other episodes,
and appeared here as well (it swells up as Batman runs along the dock after
overhearing Bullock and Gordan, and rises when the BatBoat (BatSkiff?
BatRunabout?  BatJetBoat?  BatTub?) pops out from under the pier.  I've
gotten to like that...

Outside of that, I notice Martin Pasko is the story editor.  Is that
brand-new, or has he been doing this for a while?  And does it vary from
episode to episode?

I would say that Aeon Flux is Anime. If it's not pure Anime its a homage
to the style and some times(at least to Americans) murky and ambigiuos
content of most Anime. 

The dact that it was animated in Korea is because it's cheaper to get the
bulk of the cels done their. I'm sure the key frames and storyboards were
done by Chung and his team here in the US. Batman and the Simpsons are
also animated Korea-Does that mean it's Korean animation. My guess is that
most Anime from Japan is also animated in Korea or other places were labor
may be cheaper than in Japan. I have no proof of this but thats the way
it's done here. And I'm sure every company wants to keep costs down.

The views of an artist and the interpretation of their work are two
entirely different things.        
 
A sadist could make a sculpture of mutilated animals and children and we
could be appalled by it.  The sadist meant it as a celebration of pain,
we seE it as a negative detestation of it.
 
The man who made AEon Flux is obviously intelligent, so it's not hard to
believe he's opposed to violence whole-heartedly.  That doesn't mean he
wont use it in a fantasy/artistic medium to convey a point or to create
excitement.  
 
I disagree that he's a "hypocrite" and that "anti-death" (who is
"pro-death"?) is boring.

Ahhhh...Thanks for the explanation, even if you did make one *ahem* small
spelling error there. (-:

While I'm here, "Prophecy of Doom" was rather unispired and a tad dull.  I

BHB is not a new episode.  In fact, I believe it's the first R&S

Unfortunately, some people can not get any alt groups or some specific groups.
This also goes for other hierarchies (Sp?) as well.  

BTW, alt.fan.ren-n-stimpy is a bogus group.  Ask your local operator to put
it underneath the alt.tv.ren-n-stimpy hierarchy.

Much like we're forced to watch rerun after rerun of the show NOW!!!!!!

I really like R&S, but there's only so many times I can watch "Space Madness",
or the same old "LOG" commercial.  Even when this guy was working, we were
still forced to watch rerun after rerun!!!!

If the guy wasn't doing his job, then YES...he should be fired, just like
anyone else.  I will be very sad if there won't be anymore R&S shows, however.

	All right!  This is much better!
	I saw LTV last night (9/29), and it KICKED *SS!!  There were many
terrific films like "Glove Story" and especially "The Listener".   "Dog Boy",
of course, could be fed to a large doberman and I wouldn't mind... it's for
the dogs.  "The Specialists", of course, was excellent.

	Over the summer, I went to see the "Fourth Animation Celebration" in
Brookline, MA, and one of the films that was included in the movie was "Office
Space", so I was glad to see it again and get it on tape.  Also, there was a
film called "Amazing Person" in the Celebration which was done by the same
person who did "Wishful Thinking".

	Finally, concerning AEON FLUX... well, now we know... there is no
single plot line, merely a collection of short skits in which the female
spy invariably dies at the end.  It is a great relief to know this at last...
makes it easier to understand.  Although I did prefer the old, one-plot 
format to this.

	After the 9/22 show, LTV definitely needed to "wow" me to keep my
interest... they did it with style.  Congrats, LTV!
