I need help with tonight's MousePod - Page 3

Hmm, now that you aren't getting responses I feel bad. But, like iSm, I didn't not enjoy it, it but didn't really have any sort of strong enough reaction to it to come up with anything to say other than the easy route of mentioning the cut-out animation.

You'll get a response from us tomorrow. I like it so far, but I'm old and young all at once.

That's OK, GD. I actually have 5 (count 'em) LoT contributions, not counting €uro and NA. Plenty to put together a segment. I'm going to finish the show in the morning, and I'm going to be sure to mention the "meh" that many have given it (in the proper context, of course).

I too found it to be a bit of a snoozefest. But it was interesting to watch all the old styles. And now I want to go to Hinkley Ridge, Ohio to see if they still have Buzzard Sunday.

How funny, I didn't care much at all for Toot, Whistle, Plunk & Boom - yet I was far more enamored with the nuances in ITTBAB. Cats in the middle of bird montages, goofy 60s styling, a political and environmental message, plus the Python-esque animation - I couldn't resist getting a kick out of it.

If anything, what made the viewing hard to do (and it felt like it went ooonnnnn at points) was that it was so spawling and in segments. It felt like... I dunno, 5 short films smashed into one. I wonder what they were up against in 1969 to have actually won with this. (I'll have to check that out.)

That segmented quality you mention strikes me as well. I have to wonder if this wasn't actually in production with the TV show in mind, and the decision to send it out to theaters perhaps happened along the way. (It has very TV-esque fade-outs, as if commercials were a given.)
