Klaus' animation was like 90% algorithms so I'm glad it lost and something with actual craft behind it won.

I think I've seen part of one of those, with a lady fox hitting on Balto.

And yes, this franchise has produced a lot of porn.

It is with great sadness that I report the Fox in Space channel appears to have several videos concerning fursuit...helmets(? heads?) on the front page. I can't say I'm surprised but at least the little vignettes are good.

Ok, the fact he's alive makes it more interesting to me because that whole afterlife thing looks like Coco but less relevant to a single culture. And he may have 2 souls in his body?

It's a family entertainment film. It showed as a double feature with My Neighbor Totoro. Having challenging content does not dismiss something as being family entertainment, in fact that's what separates it from children's entertainment. It doesn't have excessively violent, sexual, etc. content that would make it deliberately designed to exclude young people, hence "family entertainment", literally the distinction I was outlining.

In the book Where the Red Fern Grows, a kid dies from tripping on axe and ripping his guts out. And yet that has been required reading for sixth graders for 50 years. A lot of you are completely divorced from children and what they consume and what is designed for their consumption. Pointing that out is not a troll post.

it's always fun to come into this thread and learn something about what growing up was like for the various posters in here. I sometimes feel my sense of appropriateness for what to watch in my developing years was skewed because we watched movies like Total Recall and Starship Troopers as a family, I think I was 7 or 8 at the time. I also remember for most of my childhood thinking that while Aladdin was cool and everybody watched it, admitting you watched movies like Cinderella or Beauty and the Beast would get you labelled as "gay"



I also learned about this story called Where the Red Fern Grows that I have never heard of before, though I remember Gary Paulsen's Hatchet series being a big hit when I was in school (I think by that time Brian's Winter had just been published)

The event is known as the "Dolittle Runs" which included both Tokyo and Kobe, but more people usually know it as the "Tokyo Firebombings" since that's the more famous city of the two like you said.

quote:

THE 16 BOMBERS ROARED OFF the Hornet’s deck on the morning of April 18, 1942. All bombed targets but one, whose pilot had to ditch his ordnance in the sea to outrun fighters. According to materials only lately brought to light, the raid obliterated 112 buildings and damaged 53, killing 87 men, women, and children. Among 151 civilians seriously injured, one was a woman shot through the face and thigh while gathering shellfish near Nagoya. At least 311 others suffered minor injuries.

In Tokyo, the raiders burned the Communication Ministry transformer station, as well as more than 50 buildings around the Asahi Electrical Manufacturing Corporation factory and 13 adjoining the National Hemp and Dressing Company. In Kanagawa Prefecture, just south of Tokyo, raiders targeted foundries, factories, and warehouses of the Japanese Steel Corporation and Showa Electric as well as the Yokosuka Naval Base. Robert Bourgeois, bombardier of the 13th plane, which attacked Yokosuka, later commented on the intensity of his preparation. “I had looked at the pictures on board the carrier so much that I knew where every shop was located at this naval base,” he recalled. “It was as if it were my own backyard.”

In Saitama Prefecture, to the north, bombardiers blasted Japan Diesel Corporation Manufacturing. At Nagoya, a massive Toho Gas Company storage tank burned completely. Bombs there also damaged a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries aircraft factory. Six wards of the army hospital went up in flames, along with a food warehouse and army arsenal.

The Japanese logged the results of the war’s first raid on their homeland in minute detail, records that largely survived the 1945 bombardment of Tokyo and the deliberate destruction of records that preceded Japan’s surrender. Pilot Edgar McElroy’s attack on the Yokosuka Naval Base ripped a 26-by-50-foot hole in submarine tender Taigei’s port side, delaying its conversion to an aircraft carrier for four months. One of pilot Harold Watson’s 500-pound demolition bombs penetrated a warehouse filled with gasoline, heavy oil, and volatile methyl chloride, only to bounce into the neighboring wooden building before exploding. Bombs left craters 10 feet deep and 30 feet across. A dud ripped through a house to bury itself in the clay beneath, forcing the military to set a 650-foot perimeter to excavate the projectile.

As Doolittle anticipated, the attack burned residences from Tokyo to Kobe. In 2003 Japanese historians Takehiko Shibata and Katsuhiro Hara revealed that pilot Travis Hoover alone destroyed 52 homes and damaged 14. One bomb blew a woman from the second floor of her house to land unhurt in the street atop a mat. In the same neighborhood 10 civilians died, some burning to death in collapsing houses. Pilots Hoover, Robert Gray, David Jones, and Richard Joyce accounted for 75 of the 87 fatalities. Jones’s attack claimed the most lives—27.

Gray strafed what he thought was a factory, complete with a rooftop air defense surveillance tower. But it was Mizumoto Primary School, where students, like many across Japan, attended half-day classes on Saturdays. After school let out at 11 a.m, many students had stayed to help clean classrooms; one died in the strafing attack. At Waseda Middle School, one of Doolittle’s incendiaries killed fourth-grader Shigeru Kojima. Children’s deaths became a rallying point. A Japanese sergeant later captured by Allied forces described the furor that erupted from the raid. “One father wrote to a leading daily telling of the killing of his child in the bombing of the primary school,” his interrogation report stated. “He deplored the dastardly act and avowed his intention of avenging the child’s death by joining the army and dying a glorious death.”

So I was bored and did the math as the films events occur in real time regarding their release. For an actual NASCAR driver Lightning McQueen is basically GOAT with 7 championships in 10 seasons, and being in the finals a minimum of 8/10. For comparison, that would tie him for most championship wins with a real NASCAR driver and they did that over 24(?) seasons. Arguably, he'd be one of the single most dominant athletes at their sports ever. Cars 3 being the end of his career is even weirder because he goes from rookie to retired in 10 years, where the average career for anybody with multiple championships in Nascar is basically 15 years minimum, and closer to 20.

Also his first name is loving Montgomery, not Lightning, so the bit at the end of the film over being called "Fabulous" is a non-sequitor to tie back to Doc Hudson's character which also makes sense mostly only if you forget Cars 2 ever happened which, frankly, you should.

Honestly out of the three Animaniacs, Freakazoid, and Tiny Toons - Tiny Toons holds up the best as it's the least topical-driven humor as it leans into the school setting and more classic loony toons nonsense into more modern setting, Animaniacs' man one is way more topical/pop-culture driven.

Freakazoid feels the most topical, and also a surprising huge amount of gags are basically In-Jokes only people familiar with SoCal would get - and why it aged the worst out of the three imho.
