For the Love of Nicktoons
As I’ve often said on this blog, the Internet is full of wondrous and exciting things. All those creative types out there with big ideas and great senses of humor used to have to hope they were discovered to be heard. Now there is Youtube. Like this group called Dr. Cool Sex, who have made live-action trailers for modern day takes on famous Nicktoons.
First: Hey Arnold!
And then Doug.
I mean, come on, these are just awesome. They must have been a blast to make.
I Want to Be a Super Best Friend Forever!
Even if they’re all girls.
Lauren Faust’s mini-cartoon continues to be the most adorable version of superheroes ever. The second short clip debuted this past weekend, and it’s a little widget about Batgirl rushing to join her best friends Supergirl and Wonder Girl to fight Poison Ivy! Watch it now! Also, it may feature the best animated Commissioner Gordon ever.
And you can rewatch the first clip right here.
An Animal Man Cartoon is Now a Thing
I’ve cheered the DC Nation animation block on Cartoon Network several times before, and now I’m here to do it again! A tiny snippet of a preview of an Animal Man animated short has hit the web, and it’s just as delightful as the Super Best Friends Forever clips! If not moreso. The ‘theme music’ for Animal Man just squeals “turn me into a full time show immediately!”
Check it out:
Hopefully the full-length clip will be available sometime this weekend.
The Doctor Who RPG by College Humor
Sadly, this isn’t real. But quite honestly, after watching this video, how can anybody make sense of Doctor Who? Sheesh! The geniuses at College Humor have put together a video showcasing Doctor Who as if it were a 16-bit RPG from the Super Nintendo era. It’s funny, but mostly it’s insane. But it sticks very closely to the actual episodes, so it’s the show Doctor Who that’s really the insane one!
Fans will love his. People who don’t watch Doctor Who won’t have any idea what’s going on.
SPOILERS: This contains spoilers to seasons 5 and 6 of Doctor Who, the Matt Smith years. Don’t watch if you haven’t seen those episodes yet!
You Can’t Tell Me What Toys I Can Play With
There are few things a Brony such as myself likes more than when the rest of the world acknowledges the awesomenss of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. So let’s give it up to that maniac with the microphone, mc chris, for his My Little Pony rap! The song ‘Discord’ premiered on his website on April Fool’s Day, but you’re all fools if you don’t love it.
