Don't forget the UY movies that they also licensed (except the second one, which was singled out by another company) I watched the first 100/200 episodes back when I was trying to collect them all, and I loved them. Lots of laughs out of this series. Just be prepared to check the translation...

Dumbo and Fantasia are the last of the "Golden Age" Disney features yet to be released in Platinum remasters. Also I will disagree with Ishtar in that the footage of the Sunflower character will not be restored, as the Platinum releases are suppose to be the best possible presentation of these...

Well, I wouldn't go that far, but I agree that Disney and Fleischer peaked much earlier (the 1930s) than MGM or WB studios, although Fleischer/Famous and Disney had some strong output in the 40s.

Yeah, Thad's definitely lost base with me over time. He can be pretty knowledgable, but it certainly does does not show in write-ups like this one. On a similar note, I do dislike how reviewers or certain people in general put down those that do like works such as movies as "idiots" or...

So I suppose every multimillion dollar business should get bail-outs if it risks losing jobs, despite how bad the business decisions are. It's a very bad precedent to make a free market economy completely dependent on the government to keep it on its legs. What ever happened to making...

I thought the show really nailed the counter-culture post-punk rock teens of early 90s. These characters were really just meant to be a couple of idiots who think they're cooler than they really are. It's more tuned into the era, but I found the concept of a couple of posers struggling to...

Yeah, this is my main gripe about those type of programs. It's not so much that they're over-sexualized, which I admit IS problematic. It's just the overall china-doll look that's only gotten worse with overly detailed digital coloring. It's also the fact that there's often very little...

After Lisa tells Homer that the extinction of the honeybee population would mean no honey, Homer imagines a world without honey being a barren wasteland, being forced to eat synthetic. He randomly meets a green Wall-E like robot who Homer tries to shake hands with, but is crushed into a square...

I agree that this was probably one of the better ones in recent years. Sure the bee plot was kind of dumb, but at least it's an actual contemporary concern and there was a good amount enlightening bee facts to outweigh the stupidity. I agree that Burns was a little too clownish, but at least...

Ren & Stimpy had quite a bit that didn't make it past the storyboard stage. I recall one that focused entirely on George Liquor being an outdoorsman. I also think the second season of Darkwing Duck was cancelled prematurely, grinding some planned episodes to a halt. Also, this happened in...

Well, Buggy was the main antagonist in the Edo specials.

Maybe it's attributed to his largely feminine appearance in the manga?

Well, to be fair, the manga was only up to the part in which Guts recover's at Godo's place and early parts and the "Lost Children" arc. Also, the anime used filler padding to lengthen the Hawk's standoff with the General Adon with added military campaigns, while skipping large portions of the...

Maybe it didn't qualify due to the lack of dialog?

I agree. That one and the first sequel are complete stinkeroos. Actually I didn't disagree with any of the choices, really, and that's after watching over half of them. I'm willing to say Santa Claus Conquors the Martians is probably the one on the list I'd like to watch the most. A few...
