GOOD STUFF!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I'll try to do more posts. But, over Christmas, I've gotten some great DVDs & books, including:

The Flintstones: The Complete Series

Animaniacs: Volume 3

The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle; Season 1

Merry Christmas!

Warner Bros.' Bone, Yogi, and Marvin Stuff

On March 20, 2008, Warner Bros. aquirred the rights to Jeff Smith's action-paced & comdeic graphic novel series, "Bone". This wasn't the first time "Bone" has been adapted into a movie. The first time was in the 1990s, when Paramount & Nickelodeon tried to make a "Bone" movie, but was unsuccsessful. They are still debating on to make it 2-D drawn animation, CGI, or live -action. I think it will be relaesed in 2011. For an added bonus, here is drawing of Bone as Inspector Gadget from 2001.

On October 21, 2008, it was announced that a live action/CGI Yogi Bear movie is in progress. Sounds bad. Everybody except Yogi & Boo-Boo will be in CGI. It should be similar to Fox's "Alvin and The Chipmunks."

Don't get me started on Marvin! On May, 2008, a Christmas Marvin movie was announced on Varitiy. It will also blend live-action/CGI. The pitch is Marvin comming to earth to destroy Christmas. But, to his dimiary, he is trapped in a gift box.

So, see some good & bad movies in the future.

Toon Disney Goes XD.

In Febuary 2009, Toon Disney is going bye-bye, & will be welcoming boys & tomboys ages 6-14 to Disney XD. Some of the shows include "Jimmy TwoShoes", "Phineas & Ferb", "Spider-Man", & even some original proggraming, such as "Hero & Not" (working title). The Jetix proggraming block will not be shown on Disney XD, because the name & logo will not be used in the United States. I will miss Toon Disney, but I am excited for XD.
