Presently trying to quit the nic stix. Already quit the liquor about 3 years ago (no holy reason, just decided to quit), and I realize that nicotine is a whole lot harder for me. Also the cig money is holding back my spliffies. Oh well, we chose your vice.

Aah, the old "flat planet on elephants riding a tortoise" theory.

dumb question: Isn't the brightness a little low?
Comment on Aliens Vs Predator 2 Movie Poster (2007-10-04 10:47:57)
I also saw the preview and must agree w/ Wally. Though this movie poster sucks IMO. Isn't this kind of high school poster contest in concept? I'm actually surprised they didn't put a santa hat on top of the earth.

hahah. How ironic that a couple 30 year olds are trying to defend the artistic integrity of a cartoon to a 13 year old.

@DENMARKIAN: Great point about the lack of continuity in cartoons. I realize now that the series' I enjoy the most are the ones in which the story progresses. For example: Skyland (IMO best cg series on the air)has continuity to not only expand the plot, but to keep you interested in the characters. same w/ avatar. I actually look forward to new episodes. @DENMARKIAN & WARREN: Please start your own blogs. Seriously, i enjoyed reading your comments.

@Colin:Just to answer your question to me: Though I can't tell you "why people care about cartoons", I can tell you that I watch them mainly because I'm an animator/illustrator myself. Yet I feel no shame in telling you that I also enjoy them a great deal. I'll start watching for technical reasons, but on some cartoons (like avatar) I end up really enjoying the story. Just because a program/film/short is animated doesn't mean it's slapstick anvil dropping toons. Animation is a tool, like photography and film, to tell a story. If the story is good, then it's just the packaging you don't like. It's like painting a Hummer pink and calling it a chick car.

@Warren: I have tried describing that weird "era" of Tom & Jerry to people, I'm so glad you mentioned it. There was a definite distinction in the style for that era, the audio especially. And that's exactly how I describe it to people: "Really drug trippie sounds and everything is almost abstract", almost "creepy" I would say. Aaah, thanx for helping me reminisce.

@Howie Feltersnatch: Watch an episode, that's never happened. So I guess DC comics is also an anime' company with all their "superheroes" with their "superpowers". Are all americans blond haired too?
