A little behind the times with Game of Thrones? Hit the break to find animated shorts that cover the backgrounds behind the houses, the religion and historical events that all contribute to this hit TV series.
Could DC’s next animated movie focus on Flashpoint, the Flash cnetric storyline that pretty much gave birth to the New 52? The answer is a possible yes, given that Kevin “Voice of Batman” Conroy let slip that his next gig involves voicing the Dark Knight in a project titled “Flashpoint.”
During an interview with the Comic Book Club, Conroy let slip:
“Just last night, I recorded a new animated movie that features the Flash, it’s more about the Flash, but Batman is in it as well… It’s a Flash… Flash… Flashpoint. Flashpoint? I think it’s Flashpoint.”
You can catch that particular part at the 5:20 mark.
DC Entertainment and Cartoon Network have released the first teaser trailer for Beware the Batman, the new CG-animated series which is set to show on the DC Nation Programming block later this year.
The clip may be short, but it does give the viewer a nice little look at the animation style, along with the tone of the series.
Oregon-based stop-motion animation house LAIKA has snatched up the rights to produce a feature film based on a book that won’t even be released in the US until next year, Goblins by Philip Reeve.
The Hitlist has our first look at the poster for Disney’s newest animated comedy Wreck-It Ralph.
John C. Reilly voices the title character, a villain in an old school arcade game who ventures into other arcade games to prove he can be a hero. I’ll happily watch anything Reilly does, but the fact that this is set in the world of arcade gaming makes this a must-see for me…
The film, directed by Futurama’s Rich Moore, hits theaters November 2nd.
The location of The Simpsons’ Springfield has served as both as a mystery and recurring gag during the series’ decades-long run.
But in an interview with Smithsonian Magazine, Simpsons creator Matt Groening may have finally revealed where the fictional city is located. Or at the very least, explain why he chose the name Springfield.
In addition to Monsters, Inc., Pogo, with the help of video editor goldpikpikcarrots, also recently gave the Disney animation classic Cinderella (1950) a remix spin.
The House of Mouse have touched upon and retold many famous fairy tales and pieces of literature, so what would a Disney version of Game of Thrones look like? Well, the folks at Dorkly put together this video that meshes clips from a variety of classic Disney animated films with the audio from one of the latest trailers for the series.
Some of the animated films included in the clip include: The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Sleeping Beauty, Pocahontas, Robin Hood, Mulan, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Snow White, Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid.
I usually throw Tangled on as white noise while I’m crafting or need some background noise, but I always end up watching the whole thing and stop what I’m working on. As many times as I’ve seen it, it still manages to make me laugh and get teary-eyed.
Hope you enjoy these Tangled cosplays. Though I think someone should do a Tangled cosplay that recaptures the boat scene because that would be amazing!
Who would win in a fight between Superman and the Hulk? It’s a debate that frequents nerd circles probably just as much Star Wars Vs. Star Trek.
Looks like mhabjan will add more fuel to fire with Part 2 of his CGI battle between the two. You can catch Part 1 here, and according to the creator, there may very well be one or two more additonal parts. Stay tuned.
Do the voice actors and art style look familiar? Well, it should if you’re familiar with Adventure Time. Pendelton Ward is on board for another zany animation. In The Bravest Warriors, we follow four space heroes saving planets of different alien races in of course the same wild antics familiar in Adventure Time. The only thing that seems to be missing is the vocal antics of John Di Maggio.
The clip above looks a little “dated” because it was a short from 2009 on Nickelodeon’s Random! Cartoons. The actual series may be a bit more refined. If you check out Cartoon Hangover’s Bravest Warriors page, you can see some new art that has been drawn out for this series.
So what do you think? POWER RESPECT!?!
Ha-ha, if you scroll to 4:03, you see Chris (Blue) wrapped up by the Tickle Monster, but in the next shot he is back on the ground pulling out his Lighting Sword. Silly animators. =P
