A Slice of the Inkwell: 23/11/08 - 30/11/08
http://sliceoftheinkwell.blogspot.com/2008_11_23_archive.html
Monday, November 24, 2008. Don Bluth, 1991. When I said sporadically updated, I really meant it. Now, Rock-A-Doodle was a movie I had a love-hate relationship with as a kid. It wasn't one of the many Disney’s I had. When my grandparents gave it to me, I sat there and turned the cassette over in my tiny hands and immediately asked, "Where's the Disney logo? Is this a Pirate copy? I was of a highly elitist mind as a child. I still hate that hat to head ratio though. This is one of his worst!

Tuesday, December 16, 2008. Mysterious Mose, 1930. Being a blogger with a header like mine, you'd have thought I'd have featured a Ghost cartoon a little sooner right? Cartoon ghosts are always solid gold when it comes down to it. They're the ultimate shape shifters and the silent-thru-golden age of cartoons used them to their fullest. Three being the magic number, I bring you three classic ghost cartoons. This video also, sadly, contains my favourite design of Bimbo the dog. Ghost or not, he'd never...

Saturday, September 27, 2008. 07: Bedshaped, Keane / Butterfly. Corin Hardy, 2004. When I think of my favourite animated music videos I think in particular of this one. I saw this when I was 14 and I was just starting to wonder about what I wanted to do with my life, and an absurd idea forming in the very back of my head whispered "I want to do THAT.". Bedshaped is one of many creepy stop motion videos that are floating around out there. Another one that pops to mind is. Go to Colin Hardy's. In the face ...

A Slice of the Inkwell: 12: The Water Babies
http://sliceoftheinkwell.blogspot.com/2008/12/12-water-babies.html
Wednesday, December 10, 2008. 12: The Water Babies. The Water Babies, 1978. More of a mini post, and one of the many examples of your childhood playing tricks on you later in life. Here I was, in my flu-like state, trying to think of a good cartoon to do next for the blog, because apparently I can't let myself fall back on the infamous dA masterlist. So as I sat wondering what to do it hit me. Water Babies. I remember THINKING it looked different- does that mean it's actually got some substance to it?

A Slice of the Inkwell: 02: Mary, Scissor Sisters
http://sliceoftheinkwell.blogspot.com/2008/09/02-mary-scissor-sisters.html
Thursday, September 04, 2008. 02: Mary, Scissor Sisters. Mary, Scissor Sisters. Of course, Mary has the wow factor. But would you expect less of Don Bluth? I really could have sat through a full-length movie of this. As it is, Mary is a lovely insight into the daydreams of a bored and lonely office worker- and one of my favourite Animated music videos. I never liked the way the guy thumbs that girls hand, looks like he's going to crush her. 3 October 2008 at 07:38. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Saturday, September 13, 2008. 05: BeetleJuice; Second TV Opening. BeetleJuice, Second Opening. This post could border on the ranting side slightly, but you know, it’s only really when this show gets knocked into the same category as some of the worst 1980's animation that I get defensive. I have to try and defend this as much as I can without letting my Burtonite instincts get the better of me. And whatever DID happen to the Maitlands? Why is Lydia suddenly 13 years old? Monday, September 08, 2008. Has a...
