07.02.07 by Widge @ 10:54 pm Mark Evanier has all the details, but here's the gist: it's a snippet from a 1982 TV show where June Foray and Bill Scott (voices of Rocky and Bullwinkle respectively, along with craploads of other voices you know) trade off showing their stuff. Also, Evanier says that this the only footage he's ever seen of William Conrad (Cannon, "The Fatman," and narrator of umpteen other shows) doing narration on camera in his Rocky & Bullwinkle voice. And that means it's pretty goddamn rare. Categorized as: Animation

06.26.07 by Widge @ 8:48 pm Ever wonder where Mighty Mouse got his powers? I never really thought about it, honestly. But I never would have imagined it involved Super-Soup. I wish that supermarket would open a chain. And now that I think about it...I'm sure there's got to be a Mighty Mouse fansite online that has a recipe for Super-Soup.

06.19.07 by Widge @ 10:53 pm This is from a surreal Czech version of the Lewis Carroll story and it's...pretty goddamn creepy. Wikipedia article here. If nothing else, you'll never approach your sock drawer the same way again. Categorized as: Animation

03.17.07 by Widge @ 9:03 pm A bit of Disney animation from the short "Mars and Beyond," some of which, for some strange reason, reminds me a little of the Gerald Scarfe plant weirdness in Pink Floyd: The Wall. Huh. Anyway, this is available on the Tomorrowland release from the Walt Disney Treasures line of DVDs. Only available used from Amazon right now, but I keep telling you to get these things.

03.13.07 by Widge @ 7:32 pm  An excellent and incredibly twisted piece of Russian animation where Sherlock Holmes is drawn into solving a murder in a house full of not only suspects, but also people who can't quite get used to the fact that they're dead. Direct link for the feedreaders. Categorized as: Animation and Stimuli

03.02.07 by Widge @ 10:51 pm It's kind of like what would have happened if Gerry Anderson had adapted H.G. Wells for the screen, except, of course, totally different. Found via Table of Malcontents. Direct link of Part 1 for the feedreaders. Part 2 comes after the break. Categorized as: Animation

02.18.07 by Widge @ 2:12 pm Some classic Bugs Bunny sporting action as he takes on the Gashouse Gorillas. This cartoon is available on the first Looney Tunes Golden Collection, which if you haven't bought yet, you're foolish. The animation is all restored and they look freaking great. You must.
