Posting Something...

Dang, I really should be posting here a lot more often. But whatever. Anyway, I have decided to put most of my recent artwork onto my "new" deviantArt account. I haven't put everything there yet, but you can just go ahead and check out all the stuff: http://chownini.deviantart.com/. Also, I joined Toonzone a just last month and have gotten into a bunch of interesting discussions there. Things are pretty boring on my end, with school and not being able to start animating Tednut. But it will get better at some point.
I recently found the blog of an awesome kid whose really getting some great art skills. He's apparently a big fan of Maxwell Atoms works: http://chrisjonesmyheroismaxwellatoms.blogspot.com/. On a different note, my computer really sucks at this point.

Cartoon Review - Codename: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S.

This is the third edition of Cartoon Reviews. I finally got around to doing this stuff again! With these reviews, I look over what I liked about a cartoon (or cartoon related) thing I watched recently. And this weeks is the one hour finale of Codename: Kids Next Door, Codename: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Codename: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. (It's Now The Extra Really Very Interesting End Wrap-up Story)

Creator: Tom "Mistuh" Warburton

Writer(s): Andy Rheingold, Mr. Warburton

Running Time: 44 minutes

Network: Cartoon Network

Rating: B+

Premiere Date: January 21st, 2008


This episode was actually pretty good. From what I know, not many cartoons actually get a true ending. A finale that ties up the show's plot and answers many of the viewer's questions. However, you do have to pay attention to learn the answers to some of the questions this finale episode brings up. For example, if you payed attention, you would have learned that:

• Numbah Two and Five are now married


• Numbah Three and Four are also married


• Numbah One returned from space, and didn't stay up there forever
  
• Sector V was never really decommissioned


• Father is now going on an interstellar goose chase.


• Numbah Five becomes Supreme Commander of the KND

There are many more, but I don't fell like listing them. Well, the plot of the episode was pretty good. A C.A.K.E.D. mission turned out to be a very good note to end the show on. The writing was very superb and there were some surprising moments. One such was with the B.E.A.R.H.U.G.G.A.H., a weapon that turned out to give huge bear hugs. You wouldn't know that from the commericals! So, the guys from the Philippines got to see it before us North Americans did, and left a bunch of huge spoilers on the Internet. So what? It didn't stop me from completely enjoying the the episode.

The live-action moments may have hampered my enjoyment of the episode a little, but those parts were still awesome. The mixing of the live-action and animated scenes were just amazing. The showing of almost every single character that appeared in Codename: Kids Next Door was just astounding. But note I said, since The Tommy, Cree, and a few others were missing. The final animated scene was just heart-warming, and I won't be surprised if some of you guys watered up a bit at it. The final live-action scene was just so full of mystery. The revealing of the interviewer (Father) was surprising. Especially with him being in Computer-generated imagery (CGI). The finally was just plain great, and nothing more. I think fans got all they wanted from the series, and that's good for me. I rated this finale a B+. But one last note. It was better an end for the characters than it was for the actual series.

1000 Views!!!!

Yes, that's right! Over 1000 people have viewed this blog since November (about four months since I started it), and helped it become the website it is today. Well, not a website, I'm too stingy to get one of those. But I will celebrate this by actually including a picture I drew myself (by hand) on this blog! Happy day, happy day. I hope you guys will continue to come to this blog, cause in the future, I shall review the history of animation and cartoons, review animated series and movies, and continued update on my animation projects. So stayed tuned!

Also, anyone who wants to show their animation genius to the web, you should get a blog here: http://www.animationblogspot.com/

Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show

I just realized I had to put it up for you EEnE fans out there. Production on the movie has been delayed. The chances of a movie airing this year is unlikely. Yes, the movie is going to air next year most likely. Good news though! There are two new episodes on the way in case you didn't know! And the sound designer for the show who joined a fansite I'm a member of revealed a sound clip for a very important episode of the show! "May I Have This Ed?", an episode that will give us clues on who Nazz has a crush on! And here they are. It is the same scene, but which one of the five is one that will be used? I bet on either 3 and 5. But I really dig number 4 and 5 the the most of all. You'll be happy to know that Sheldon is back...well, not really. But you get to meet Sheldon Jr.

Tednut Production Status

I have decided to set you guys straight on the whole production of Tednut, if you haven't gone to the website yet. Here's the link if you guys want to see, cause I have noticed there are some new people showing up to this blog: HERE.

Anyway, first things first. They will only be 7 episodes for the first season ("The Fall Season" as I call it) of Tednut. Not counting the Halloween special. I am currently finishing up writing up that script I never wrote for "The Day", the first episode of Tednut. And studying up on how I want the characters mouths to move (known as "mouth direction"). In other words? I'm starting over with this series. Since I never even finished the first 20 seconds, you guys shouldn't be disappointed. I probably won't get around to doing and actual episode until February, so sorry guys. In the mean time it is trying to keep that unfullied promised of adding more downloads and adding to the character list to the main site. Hope you aren't mad at me. So basically, here are the plans for Tednut:

*Pre-Production (Jan 13, 2008-Feb 2008): Writing and Storyboarding, Mouth Direction, Animation Practice

*Production (Feb 2008-Oct 2008): Animating Tednut episodes

*Post-Production (Oct 2008-April 2008): Animation practice, Writing and Storyboarding, Co-Animating and Writing for Fiznut

Also, here are the episodes that are going to be in the "Fall Season":

1) The Day
2)Mourning Recess
3)Survival Test
4)Bullies
Halloween Special (Mountain of the Vamps)
5)Backyard Jungle
6)Book of Weirdos
7)Treasuring Hunt
