I fear that Mr. Chung may have partially failed in his goals with Aeon
Flux, since almost nobody I know has commented on the woman's actions
as anything but incredibly cool.  The people I've watched it with all
seem to think that her slaughtering people is just great fun.
Typically, audiences don't realize when they're being manipulated into
feeling things that the filmmaker finds appalling.

But then most people cheered for the Terminator as well...

I just read in the Speed Racer comic book from NOW comics that in about six
months there will be a brand new Speed Racer animated series.

I don't know if this is old news or not, but it was new to me.  I can't wait.

Didn't happen here in New Mexico.  Sounds like someone at your station

Well, there was a photograph of Bruce in Dick's dorm.  You have to be
pretty sharp-eyed to see it, or at least know where to look for it...

 9/29	FEAR OF VICTORY				TMS	Scarecrow

So-so episode.  Nothing to write home about, except the nice
animation by TMS.  When Bats was walking down that hallway in
Arkham, I was expecting one of the inmates to be a bald man in
a refrigerated room, holding a "snow-shaker" with a ballerina
figurine in it... too bad it didn't happen. :-(

I agree.

Introducing Robin in an episode where he's laboring under a drug-induced
handicap really was a bad idea.  I'll suspend judgement on Robin's abilities
until the writers give him a fair chance to use them.

Oh, I thought PoD was a nice change of pace, with a little more focus on the 
detective part and less on the puncheminnaface.  Not the best writing, but 
hardly deserving a *gag*.  And the villain was surprisingly realistic, 
requiring no comic book physics or biology to support.  Heck, guys like him

I dunno, this episode just really rubbed me the wrong way... it seemed mostly
like a cliche to me (kid being too smart for his age, kids getting into trouble
to get in the hero's way). Of course, to each his own...I WOULD like to see
Penguin in more episodes, though (how do these criminals keep escaping jail? :)

No no no no no. Batman was curious because he was in SuperFriends
(and "Challenge of the SuperFriends", and "Galactic Guardians") which
was made by H-B, but his very own cartoon (and earlier short flicks)
were *Filmation*.

Or doesn't anyone else remember the 1970s half-hour show, where we
(at least I) was introduced to that lovable Bat-Mite? ;-)

At least I'm pretty sure it was Filmation. Had the same style, the same
feel, and the same flips as Tarzan. :-)

  MTV will be airing Liquid Television 2 this fall, showcasing the talent
of Colossal Pictures and a bevy of animators hailing from around the
world, including artists from Wales, Czechoslovakia, England, South
Korea, and Hungary.
  The various short segments will showcase many different styles and
techniques of animation, including live action and stop motion and
cut out, cel, puppet and computer animation.  New York's Vanguard
Media will render the "beach blanket noir" look of "Autogard 2000".
Panther Productions in Santa Monica will give life to the surreal
primitive style of illustrator Mark Beyer (known for his work in 
the underground comic serial "Raw") in "The Adventures of Thomas
and Nardo", in which an anthromorphic house befriends a housing
inspector and the two go on adventures with the help of a shrink ray.
Another Raw artist, Charles Burns, will create "Raw Dog" using
effected live action.
  Other segments are "Aeon Flux", "Billy and Bobby", "The Specialists",
"Stick Figure Theater", and "Winter Steele".  Segments to be produced
for L.T. by others include "Doctor Zum", "12 Dangers of Skydiving",
and "Power Jewels", "Speed Bump, the Roadkill Possum" and "Joe Normal".

Yet someone else said it was a reference to the GOTHAM NIGHTS miniseries.

I don't think there is any relation to either.

BTW, the "Tim Drake" costume comment refers to the costume worn by the
latest Robin from the comics.  The one used in the show is the same.

Agreed!
"Glove Story" and "The Listener" were good (especially the latter).

"Dog Boy" I can leave or take (I'd rather leave, if you don't mind).

"The Specialists" was cute, but not much more.  Catchy soundtrack.  :-)
And I know many mad scientists that would give anything for
an assistant like Delilah.  :-)

"Office Space" I had seen before, and don't care for.

"Aeon Flux" had some spotty animation (check out when the Agent is climbing
through the window) and very anime-like direction in places (like the
bullet-hole/thermostat/eye pull-out zoom).

"Wishful Thinking" had ME thinking... about the upcoming "The Running Man"
short.  Colossal broke up WT into several bits.  Now, the entire "Running Man"
short is about 20 minutes long, so unless Colossal breaks it up into chunks
ala "Aeon Flux" or dedicates one entire show to it, I can't see how will they
show the entire short.

BTW, LTV is re-run Sunday nights (don't know the time, though).

I liked the episode.  It was a nice change of pace from the usual
dark and grim stories we have been seeing.  Now we have dark stories
of child endangerment instead.  I haven't seen either "Home Alone" or
"3 Ninjas", but I didn't mind the scenes of kids defending their
house.  Batman is human; he gets hurt and needs help.  He is extremely
lucky that Sherman and Roberta were there to save him.

Also, it is about time somebody thought to look under Batman's mask to
see who he was.  I believe this was the first time in the series this
happened.

>I did think the Penguin was a good character, though. I at least liked him
>better than the movie's interpretation of him...

Well, now we know who the Penguin is -- Uncle Pennybags (name?) from
the Monopoly game gone bad :-).  He was pretty good.

By the way, Batman's "Get out -- NOW!" was *very* effective.  It
startled me when he said it.

Our cable company is getting it.  At first I was excited by its coming,
hoping that I would get to see cartoons I haven't seen a while (like
speed Racer.)  But at the looks of the ads I see for it, it just looks
like TBS's afternoon program spread out through the entire day.  
Ted Turner owns cartoon network, so it looks like any thing seen on
TBS or TNT will be on the channel.  Pretty boring....

Then again, I might be surprised.

   I thought he was done pretty well, actually, and of course he's going to
seem like a wimp when he's under the influence of the Scarecrow. What I didn't

enough).
   Oh, and Casey Kasem should have done his voice! :)
