The rabbit may not be the only Dick and Jane spoof, PBS' Between the Lions spoofed Dick and Jane as "Chicken Jane".

Slight system glitch there. Apologies for the inconvenience.

 

[Kunmui]

It's Sergei Prokofiev.

Oh, and i'm quite surprised by the absense of the Acker's "9" short (not even mentioned).

 

[silkyeggsalad]

Oooops. S'pose I should do some boning up on me Russian composers.

(And the same goes fer you proofreaders! )

 

[viciously_delicious]

That and also La Maison En Petit Cubes.

While I was able to appreciate the attention to detail and that a story was told with absolutely no dialogue, it evoked no emotion at all. I was so disappointed with it. To be fair, I didn't see it until after the movie came out and I think the hype of how good I was told it was ruined my chances of ever really enjoying it.

What? No Rejected or Destino on the list of honorable mentions?

 

[Lovely Smile]

Yeah I was surprised that there wasn't any Don Hertzfeldt. I'm a huge fan of him.

I haven't seen all of the shorts on the list, but the ones I have seen I liked. That's how it's been with most of the lists. That's great though, most lists are just the same old things
