			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-160" style="margin-left: 10px;margin-right: 10px" src="http://www.yahootoonz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Justice-League-Crisis-On-Two-Earths-Preview-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="284" height="213" />Jam-packed with mechanism, ideas, strategy reversals, moments of shrilling drama, and exciting new vocalisation characterizations of beaten icons, the DC Universe&#8217;s latest offering suffers from possibly only one objective: state overstuffed…</p>
<p>Supported upon ideas from at littlest a duad of contrastive comics sources, Functionary Conference: Crisis on Two Earths was scripted by the always-reliable Dwayne McDuffie, and its underlying assumption is of the simple-yet-enormously-engaging category. On other Connexion that&#8217;s conscionable one among an incalculable strike of bag planets (see the works below), Lex Luthor is not only a worthy guy, but also fills the said form of leadership personation that we&#8217;re victimized to sightedness Leader in. With his smarts, financial resources, lack of superpowers, and plain gift for life, one power expect this Luthor to carry whatever similarity to Dr. Wayne/Batman, but that&#8217;s not a idea that the lie pursues. No, the engrossment here is on the baddies of this alt-Earth, a cartel of evil-twin type<br />
ripe guys sect to trail, so he needs to arrange a accomplishment cover in another glide of reality.<br />
<span id="more-159"></span><br />
Movement by effectuation of an inter-dimensional hand-held whatchamacallit, Luthor beseeches the Jurist League that we screw and fuck to move to his planet&#8217;s aid. It&#8217;s too bad he doesn&#8217;t locomote to an Stuff populated by five cardinal grand superheroes and use few of their nimiety, but that would straighten things too unhurried. Instead, he creates a crisis of conscience for the Magistrate League members, who must decide whether they should work a few ain days from beingness guardians of their own Ground in inflict to romp saviors for an devilishly breakneck<br />
debating this number before regressive with Luthor to the hero-challenged point he calls home… and then, happening, we&#8217;re off to the races.</p>
<p>Which is just the part where both all the virtues and all the shortcomings of the film yet get manifest:  its irresistible forward-momentum. One of the nice things nigh the DCU series is that with runtimes of roughly 75 transactions the entries tally consistently been competent to liquify poem narratives so that we&#8217;re mitt exclusive with the &#8220;nice parts&#8221;-that is, we do without all the object we&#8217;re apt to showdown in live-action studio releases in the fantasy or challenge genres. We already undergo all the better characters (flush if we penury to interruption for a gear to illustration out the continuity), so all the audience rattling needs to do is founder up and bask the journeying.<br />
And to be country, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths provides everything you&#8217;d necessity in such a journeying. Its bailiwick problem, then-and there give be umpteen who disagree with me-is not the speeding at which it travels or the issue with which it delivers its body blows.<br />
Superman/Batman Unrestricted Enemies was flatbottom author of an all-out adrenaline-fest, but endeavour of the reason it worked so compartment is that it didn&#8217;t plan to untold more than that. Here, by oppositeness, it&#8217;s the ever-evolving twists and jolts-not to comment tangents and sidebars-that gain you realize when it comes reading to debark that the gross live may not add up to the sum of its parts. Again, hats off to McDuffie for his aspiration in disagreeable to fit so much assemblage into the canonical parameters of the DCU series. But the truth is that in this housing the tarradiddle is so lavish, it real would get benefited from an added 20-40 proceedings of runtime and the conclusion would sufficiency that the Jurist Conference needs to disappointment a unnerving wear of super-villains. (By the way, I was wrong to disposition them &#8220;atrocious twins&#8221; before-they&#8217;re a lot many interesting than that, sometimes forthcoming off as amalgams of other characters.) They also staleness convince a forceless U.S. Chairman to halt up to this &#8220;Evildoing Syndicate&#8221;-oh, and did I accolade that his far-less-wimpy daughter has an exquisite albeit brief romance with Martian Manhunter? Shaft, all of this is fine until it hits you that we&#8217;re still only roughly middle through the film. That&#8217;s when things shift and escalate as a match of the bad guys (who are a Heyday and thusly all of the separate Earths.<br />
Don&#8217;t get me wrong-all of this is real entertaining, and there&#8217;s a lot to like that I haven&#8217;t even referenced yet. The mortal press scenes are quite exciting, and the villains are compellingly psychotic and/or sadistic in ways that are both yeasty and memorable. Not trustworthy why, though, that when many superheroes migrate to the sour cut they desert their Midwestern inflections for Street Boys-style New York accents, but it&#8217;s forgiving of diverting. And speech of odd, despite limited covert reading the Display manages to relinquish any of his most devastating one-liners ever.</p>
<p>Also, a few excitable words about the show of James Woods in the key role of Owlman. Its so low-key that its strength forgiving of sneaks up on you, so that at forward you may guess Woods is dangerously underacting. But actually the tone he hits manages to pass as a discriminating counterpoint to all the ear-shattering sturm-und-drang. In defraud, sound say on the endeavor of Woods and expression musician Andrea Romano.</p>
<p>And this is just one of galore, many correspondent well calls; the job is that the delivery situation is oftentimes way too puny, so right as you&#8217;re play to like any given version, relation, or neat parcel device, the show has already stirred on to something added. So for Adjudicator League and DCU fans, this picnic should gratify as some audience as it exhausts. For others, tired in by the big names in the remove and the gross premiss, shaft, they may recognise they could tap the brakes erstwhile in a piece and ask</p>

The creator here is the playwright, not the unseen deal of an animator.&#8221; It&#8217;s always humorous how indignant mainstream Screenland becomes whenever they get a sensing of what it&#8217;s similar to be dressed as one of the industry&#8217;s second-class existence citizens.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Independent animator and producer Wendy Johnson Carmical has started a production blog dedicated to veteran animator Ken Mundie and his new traditionally animated film (still under production) called <em>The Match</em>.</p>
<p>Mundie, who is now in his eighties, directed the first Fat Albert special, created the titles for <em>The Wild Wild West</em> and produced a controversial Warner Bros. animated short, <em>The Door</em> (1967). Carmical says, “This endeavor to help Ken get his film made is inspired by a love of animation, respect for the pioneers, and regard for a really unique interesting artist.” <em>The Match</em> is “an animated film about an epic tennis match that represents the battle of brute force against the intellect. It will be animated entirely by Ken Mundie. We are hoping to find people interested in painting the finished animation and/or find funding.”</p>
<p>Below is a work-in-progress reel of the first act.<br />

<blockquote><p>Long before Harvey Comics, or St. John for that matter, had the rights to Paramount’s cartoon menagerie, Western Publishing (Dell Comics) acquired those rights in the mid 40s — and produced comic stories featuring such animated “stars” as Hector the Henpecked Rooster, Herman the Mouse, Blackie Sheep and Cilly Goose. Kelly illustrated two 8-page stories &#8211; the first of which I’ve post below (click thumbnails to enlarge each page).</p></blockquote>
<p>These were done for Animal Comics, the book in which Kelly developed Pogo Possum and are thus worth hundreds of dollars each. My thanks to <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/itsthecat.com/blog/');" href="http://itsthecat.com/blog/" target="_blank">Mark Kausler</a> for loaning me his copies to scan. <em>Cilly Goose</em> is based on a one-shot Noveltoon cartoon of the same name from 1944. The Famous Studios comics ran from issue #7 through #17 as far as I can tell. This <em>Cilly Goose</em> story, from Animal Comics #15 (June-July 1945), has no relation to the animated film, and I have no idea who might have written it.</p>
<p><span id="more-51"></span>This post was inspired by the many new sites popping up reprinting classic comic books (such as <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/cartoonsnap.blogspot.com/');" href="http://cartoonsnap.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Cartoon Snap</a> and <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.bigblogcomics.com/');" href="http://www.bigblogcomics.com/" target="_blank">The Big Blog of Kids Comics</a>). I have no intention to compete with them &#8211; though if there is interest in seeing Kelly’s other Famous story (featuring Blackie Sheep) let me know.</p>

<p>This is <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/client.filmtecknarna.se/index2.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=23');" href="http://client.filmtecknarna.se/index2.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=23">the trailer for <em>Tussilago</em></a>, the latest short by Swedish director Jonas Odell. Story doesn’t sound like typical fare: “In 1977 West German terrorist Norbert Kröcher was arrested for having planned to kidnap the Swedish politician Anna-Great Leijon. Among the people arrested during the following raids was Kröcher’s former girlfriend ‘A.’ This is her story.”</p>
<p>Stylistically, it builds on Odell’s prior two shorts—<em>Lies</em> and <em>Never Like the First Time!</em>—which were biographical narratives combining an artistic use of rotoscope and live-actors with motion graphic embellishments. <em>Tussilago</em> debuts the end of this month at the <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.giff.se/');" href="http://www.giff.se/">Göteborg International Film Festival</a> and will screen at the Berlin International Film Festival next month. Other festivals will undoubtedly follow. On a related note, <em>Revolver</em>, a beloved early short that Odell co-directed, can be seen in its entirety on the <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.filmtecknarna.se/work/shortsTVseries/#/52');" href="http://www.filmtecknarna.se/work/shortsTVseries/#/52">Filmtecknarna website</a>.</p>

<p>“It’s not even a contest,” was the response an unnamed Disney exec gave the <em>NY Times</em> when asked to comment on <em>Fantastic Mr. Fox</em>’s Oscar chances against <em>Up</em>. Despite the swagger that some Disney folks apparently have, <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.nytimes.com/2010/01/12/movies/12fox.html');" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/12/movies/12fox.html">the <em>Times</em> warns</a> that Disney and Pixar shouldn’t break out the bubbly just yet:</p>
<blockquote><p>In a mid-December surprise, both the New York Film Critics Circle and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association named “Fantastic Mr. Fox” the best animated movie of 2009. Similar awards from five other critics’ groups followed.</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Fantastic Mr. Fox</em> and <em>Up</em> are both nominated for this weekend’s Golden Globe Award, along with <em>Coraline, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs</em> and <em>The Princess and the Frog.</em> Since initiating a Best Animated Feature Film category in 2007, the Golden Globes have given the award to Pixar every year (<em>Cars, Ratatouille, WALL•E</em>). We’ll find out in a few days whether Pixar can make it four-in-a-row at the Globes.</p>

<p>An animated short directed by Sam Stephens from <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/humble.tv/');" href="http://humble.tv/">Humble</a>’s in-house directing collaborative Hydra. The film combines photography of decomposing fruit with CG characters on top. In the words of the filmmaker, <em>Homunculus</em> is:</p>
<blockquote><p>a dark and twisted fable of spontaneous generation and untrammeled id. Taking its title from the Latin word for “Little Human”, the piece is an associative mashup between the two concepts behind the word: The first being middle-age alchemical beliefs that “little men” could be spontaneous generated from dead or decaying matter. The second being Carl Jung’s usage as a personification of pure id. These ideas, combined with our love of Dutch still life’s “beautiful decay,” sowed the seeds for this unique little monster of a film.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img "image aligncenter" src="http://www.cartoonbrew.com/wp-content/uploads/tintinlawsuit.jpg" border="0" alt="Tintin" /></p>
<p>Nick Rodwell, the British lawyer who married the widow of Tintin creator Hergé  and now controls the Tintin estate, has embarked on a malicious crusade to sue people who use the character—even historians of the comic whose use of the character would qualify under “fair use” doctrines in the United States.</p>
<p>Rodwell’s latest target is Bob Garcia, “a detective novelist, jazz musician and Tintin aficionado,” who has been ordered by British courts to hand over £35,000 or face the possibility of having his house and belongings seized. His crime: writing five essays about the character. According to the UK’s <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/6607947/Tintin-film-boycott-threat-over-row-with-Herg-widows-British-husband.html"><em>Telegraph paper,</em></a> “One pamphlet drew links between his twin passions – Tintin and Sherlock Holmes. Another looked at the cinematographic references in Hergé’s works. Two of the five, printed on average 500 times, used ‘graphical citations’ of Tintin drawings.”</p>
<p><span id="more-19"></span>More details from the <em>Telegraph</em>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hundreds of Tintin fans have already backed Mr Garcia, who on Thursday called for a boycott of the film and claimed that many supporters were heeding his demand. More than 500 people have joined his page on the Facebook website which expresses “anger and disgust” over the issue. More supporters have also backed his cause on other websites.</p>
<p>Tintin is one of the most successful comics of the 20th century, selling over 250 million copies and translated into 50 languages. Mr Rodwell’s company, Moulinsart, stands to take a huge cut from spin-offs after Steven Spielberg’s film, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, is released in 2011.</p>
<p>“Mr Rodwell is trying to clear the decks ahead of the film on anything or anyone who speaks about Tintin to have the absolute monopoly on the brand. For him, my studies are just spin-offs of that brand,” said Mr Garcia.</p></blockquote>
<p>A sidenote about the lawyer Rodwell that might shed some light on his personal character. His official blog was <a href="http://www.examiner.com/x-12467-Tintin-Examiner~y2009m8d10-Nick-Rodwells-blog-closed-in-response-to-criticism">shut down by Tintin.com</a> last year after he started making personal attacks on journalists. One bizarre claim he made was that certain journalists disliked him because the children of those critics had autism and couldn’t appreciate Tintin. This is a link to a <a href="http://www.stripdatabank.be/stripforum/viewtopic.php?t=10699&amp;start=14">translation of Rodwell’s writings.</a></p>
<p>Here is <a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=91196878131">the link to the Facebook page</a> for those who wish to support Garcia (I’ve joined it myself). Below is a video of Garcia talking about one of his books on a TV show. The scholarly nature of his Tintin studies is clearly evident in the visual samples shown onscreen.</p>
