  • Hey, internet.

    Santa CLAUS (no 'e') is the name of the guy.
    The Santa CLAUSE (with an 'e') is the name of the movie. It's a play on words. Literacy is cool.
    The more I think about these new emotions in Inside Out 2, the less I like the idea. It all screams "We're doing a sequel so we have to add new characters!" Nevermind how unnecessary they are. Embarrassment and Ennui are states of mind, not emotions.
    In order to continue enjoying escapist movies, we need to stop setting our standards so ridiculously high. Wish and The Marvels may not have been great movies, but they were still good, entertaining movies, and that's all they need to be. Nowadays if a movie isn't cinematic gold, people start shrieking "Disney is done! Marvel is dead!". Every movie doesn't have to be Ben-Hur. Just chill.
    The scripted comedy has become an endangered species on basic cable. Comedy Central only has The Daily Show, TBS just has American Dad, and that's only because Disney wouldn't let them out of their contract, TNT just airs reruns and sports and TruTv just spams Impractical Jokers all day.
    There should be a new genre for animation similar to the G rating for movies or the E rating for video games; a General Audience genre for cartoons which aren't super -kiddie or super - adult, but for everyone. You don't have to be a wide-eyed 5 year old or a 20-something edgelord to like them, but it's OK if either or both want to watch.
    Everybody's talking about how great Netflix's live-action Avatar:TLA looks, and yeah, it looks decent, but Katara and Sokka are STILL whitewashed! What the actual what? Why is Hollywood so averse to having brown people in Avatar?

    Yeah, that's one of the things that distracts me from the recent Netflix trailer, even though I do enjoy it, they still haven't learn from M. Night's "adaptation" for not getting Katara and Sokka right.

    Don't even get me started on Azula...
    Warner Bros Discovery SUCKS. I hate to have to say that about what was once my favorite studio, but here we are.

    @harry580 Verizon wouldn't make much difference when they take financial in consideration and most if not all of 200+ films would be cancelled since they aren't financially sound for all corporations with little to no return.

    @harry580 and no, Blue Sky Studios films aren't abandoned like Fox Kids/Saban/BVS and seriously, it is very nonsense to see if you talk like this way because all of Blue Sky Studios films are streamable and you can buy it easily since majority of Fox Kids/Saban/BVS are unavailable to stream nor buy, beside Marvel.

    You're right. WBD does suck. In other news, the sky is blue.

    What the folks wishing for the Alphabet networks to get back in the Saturday Morning game tend to overlook is that the broadcast networks couldn't wait to get out of producing shows for SatAM. Back in what we considered to be SatAM's Golden Age, within the network offices Saturday morning was considered to be worse than the mailroom job.
    Regarding X-Men '97: I hate Mr. Sinister. I know he's a villain and you're not supposed to like him, but I truly, hate the guy and any stories that involve him. He's such a creepy, vile (something I probably shouldn't say here). He just rubs me the wrong way.
    I legit don't get those Left or Right YouTube shorts, where a character (usually an anime character) points to random things on either side of them and then it cuts to some borderline DeviantArt image with sexy J-Pop music playing under it. I don't understand the point of this at all. It's official: I'm becoming an old man yelling at the clouds.
    You know, I'm kind of digging Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe these days. Their art style is kind of balloon-y, but it's distinctive, plus it's kind of cool how they renamed themselves after HB; also I like their logo. I hope they keep making more stuff that gets to come over to the US.
    The only recent adult cartoons that I've genuinely enjoyed have been Close Enough and Young Love. I hope we can get more adult toons like these; they're a welcome oasis in an ocean of South Parks, Family Guys, Big Mouths and Brickleberries.
    I legit don't get the appeal of stuff like Lackadaisy; I mean, who's this for? You can have your toon about adorable cartoon kitties running a 20's speakeasy, but don't think I'm gonna take this seriously. It's like Adventure Time or Learning with Pibby; don't fill your show with designs, characters and concepts I can't possibly take seriously then expect me to take them seriously.
    Having now seen both Disney's Once Upon a Studio and CN's TTGO! WB 100th Anniversary Special, I can now say that even though I'm more of a WB fan overall, Disney clearly won this round.

    @JMTV showed me a CN Latin America spot that celebrated the channel and the studio much better:

    You know, I get the premise of this spot: that the fans' choices for Best Cartoon Network Show are based on their own respective generations, but seriously, who prefers the 2016 Powerpuff Girls over the original? Not even kids were enamored with that show.

    Also, apparently, in Latin America, Wacky Races is called Autos Locos, which literally means "Crazy Cars".

    OG PPG should be there instead of the 2016 one!

    Thanks. I change my avvy whenever I get bored, but I've always liked Gonzo; he's my favorite Muppet (aside from the Electric Mayhem) and one of my alter egos.

    my favorite muppet would be Bert from Sesame Street...he kinda reminds me of Eustace (Courage the Cowardly Dog) & Squidward (Spongebob)

    Today would've been The Hub's thirteenth anniversary. Pour one out for our fallen homie.
    Man, I'll be glad when Warner Bros Discovery stops being such a hot mess. Several studios are on fire right now, but WBD is that 3-car pileup that's hideous to see but you can't stop looking at it.

What does "Banger" mean? It's apparently a judgment about quality but out of context it could mean good or bad. Is it a compliment or a slam?
If the rumors of a SpongeBob-themed land at Universal's new Texas park are true, then boy is this moment awkward.
I feel like my doom and gloom is got the best of out of me. I'm worried for Disney and Warner Bros, but I need to get rid of this doom and gloom habit. And I don't want my newborn niece to see me like that.
