    Chinese characters in American cartoons

    I think the world of Avatar is a good example of what TV Tropes calls a "Fantasy Counterpart Culture". http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FantasyCounterpartCulture

    Toon Zone Talkback - Tim Burton and Disney to Produce Two New Films

    Alice In Wonderland is one of my Top 3 favorite Disney movies, and I am anxiously awaiting Tim Burton's version of it. The actress playing Alice certainly looks the part, and Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter is sure to be a stroke of genius. I personally cannot wait! :D

    First image from Dreamworks' Oobermind

    Have you seen Monsters vs. Aliens? Talk about ugly human character design! All the humans in that movie basically look like live action versions of the humans you'd see in magazines like Cracked or Mad.

    The Simpsons - "Love, Springfieldian Style" Talkback

    Of the three, the Lady and the Tramp parody was the best (I still haven't seen the actual movie) with its interesting animation, and Goofy's appearance. Sex Pistols was a runner-up, mostly for the fun British accent and dialog, and the chocolate montage.

    Restore Woes

    Palm tech support will always tell you to do a hard reset, rename the backup directory and get the device to near virgin status. I recommend only deleted the saved_preference file and then doing a soft reset. This will almost always clear the issue to avoid a continual reset loop. It will...

    New here need a couple pointers for T5 and Zire 72

    thanks for the info, I am kinda leaning that way, the screen size being the biggest factor and ability to hide the graffitti area. I also like the drive mode feature. I appreciate the feedback as I am completely new to pda's, looks as though the zire 72 will go to my wife. I do not have the 72...

    gps navigation for tx

    Bummer. I guess I'll have to buy a new GPS unit to use with my TX. The one I have has a Palm Universal Connector. No Ps/2 connector. Any idea if this Bluetooth one is any good...

    Do u think its time to end the simpsons?

    I still watch the show and I still think it's funny, just not as funny as it used to be. I don't know if they should end it, but I do know that I'll watch it until they do.

    Any stereotypes that bug you and why?

    Now as much as I like Recess, Spinelli is the best example of this sterotype. In addition to being turned off by girly things, she hates being refered to as a girl even if the word is used in a nonderogatory term. Two counters to this sterotype: 1. Reggie Rocket (Rocket Power)- Definitely...

    Cartoons that deserve a remake

    I imagine it wouldn't be that hard to find someone who does a decent Bogart impression. But if anyone ever did decide to revive Shirt Tales, I would hope they would take it back to the first season's continuity. Season 2 of Shirt Tales was kind of lacking.

    If YOU had your own animated series...

    mines older in fact when I started it the idea branched in to 4 separated show ideas and I hope they could connect to each other and have their own "universe"

    Cartoons that your parents wouldnt let ya watch

    Beavis and Butthead. It intrigued me because it was by the creators of King of the Hill, which I was allowed to watch, and a lot of people talked about it... but when I was finally allowed to watch it... turns out I wasn't missing much. Ren and Stimpy when I was really young, but eventually I...

    The Principal and the Pauper- Is it really THAT bad?

    This episode was actually borderline epic in diving into Principal Skinner's past. People who hate it also don't see the satire of the entire thing.

    Worst father in animation

    No contest, it's Peter Griffen. I remember one episode where Meg just walked into the living room and he shot her. Which was ridiculous and unfunny... ... Yeah, I can't think of any dads worse than him. :shrug:

    South Park - "The F Word" [11/4]

    Meh, I think this might be this season's weakest episode. Didn't really laugh at this one since it mostly relied on a one-note joke, which I didn't even think was funny. I knew I should have watched the ball game instead.

    Impossible, platonic love...

    Well, this isn't exactly what I meant but I guess it's close enough. Take my example of Brian and Louis, they're both attracted to one another but can't be together sexually and/or in public because 1. Louis is married. 2. That would ruin their friendship. 3. Brian is, well, you know, of the...
