    In case anyone was waiting for it, The Illusionist hits DVD next week.

    And the week after that, we get the first five episodes of the Gobots series for some reason. Digitally mastered, even.

    I'd love to own Gobots VS Rock Lords. Fond memories of that one.

    Okay, I'm excited for the new Adventure Time:
    Spoiler:

    It's a mushroom cloud composed of spectral skulls.

    This is also apparently going to be part one of a two part special introducing the Lich King.
    Wikipedia makes it sound like they are doing both parts in one night.

    Huh, I wasn't expecting the Adventure Time two-parter to shake things up so much (or at all, honestly).

    Anyone hear about The Amazing World of Gumball on CN? The mix of animation styles is extremely appealing:

    I assume that Gumball is from the Chowder people?

    Huh. A lot of coincidental similarities between the two shows then. Gumball's sounding a lot like Chowder (complete with the squeaky gasp), the use of mixed animation types, and the pink rabbit characters.

    I just looked on iTunes to see if the new Looney Tunes Show is available. It's not, but you know what is?

    The grilled cheese song.

    I've only seen a few clips but the new Looney Tunes feels a lot like Tiny Toons or Taz-Mania

    that's good.

    As a song? For $1?

    ... holy shit, and here I thought the new Beastie Boys was the only worthwhile musical release this week...

    Just caught two episodes of Gumball on TV this morning.

    It's really good stuff. Interesting characters, good animation, and it's just funny.

    I lurve the new animation in Superjail but it doesn't have the same magic that the first season did. I can't describe it, but it's not as good to me.

    I'd say they're about on par with the first few episodes of the last season

    it will probably take them a little while to build up speed again

    I don't know, there was a very fragile balance that made the show really good that isn't there anymore

    it doesn't feel as dark and twisted.

    I feel the fluidity of the animation for the new season really detracts from the aesthetic that it had. With the worse animation it felt dark and grungy while now it's like some shiny thing being vulgar and it just feels weird.

  • ZombiemamboZombiemambo Registered User regular

    That very well could be it. I do like the style and animation but maybe not for Superjail
