Why Did No One Tell Me They Were Making a Charlie Brown Movie?

I think it looks kind of adorable, quite frankly. It looks like a fun, stylized, modernly animated take on Charlie Brown and Snoopy. And that music is the music of life. Here’s hoping that whoever is behind this movie makes it a good one. I long ago gave up all hope that any classic cartoon or comic was sacred, and that Hollywood would actually try to preserve something. So I’m cool with the Peanuts being turned into a film. Why not? No point in fighting the inevitable. But man, this is Charlie Brown! Don’t we all owe a little part of our souls to Charlie Brown?

I hope my favorite Peanuts character, 5, is in the movie

I Don’t Own Any Simpsons LEGOs Because Money

Did you know that The Simpsons house LEGO set is $200?! What does LEGO think we are, made of money? Or that we’re all money tree farmers? Darn it, I knew I should have gone into money tree farming! I guess I’ll just have to satisfy my desires with all the fun that other people are having with their LEGO Simpsons houses. Like Monsieur Caron, for example.

 

The Guardians of the Galaxy Post-Credits Scene Has Leaked Early!

Sort of! If Only Leigh herself ever reads this, I want her to know that I’ll be posting every video she makes from now on. They are adorkable!

She does the best voices too! Let’s hope the real Guardians of the Galaxy movie is half this funny!

My Top 6 Favorite South Park Episodes

As you read this, I am hip deep in cows, fart jokes and biting social satire on a quest to uncover the Stick of Truth! The long-awaited South Park RPG was released yesterday, and I tell you without a hint of remorse that I dipped into my savings to buy the game as soon as possible. So far, Stick of Truth is as glorious as we all hoped it would be. And I am definitely in a South Park mood.

So how about we talk about our favorite episodes?

Is it OK if I love them all?

I have been a South Park fan since before my dad would even let me watch it. I can still remember begging him to record an episode so that my brother and I could watch it later, because it aired after our bedtime. It was the first season episode where the boys get into a race with Death because Stan’s grandpa wants to die…or something. My memory is fuzzy. But what’s not fuzzy is that unlike other venerable animated series, South Park has remained as funny and as sharp as ever even though they’re nearing 20 seasons.

Putting together this list was tough, but I think I have my narrowed down favorites! And please share yours in the comments. I’d love to hear them.

Animated, Fan-Made Batman vs. Terminator is Pretty Sweet

Some Batman fans decided to whip up this sweet animation and share it with the rest of us! I love the Internet!

It ends pretty anticlimactically, but that was still a pretty badass bit of animation. It was posted by Mitchell Hammond, with the original concept by Tony Guerrero.
