Re: Blue Man Group: Your Attention Please
It's real paint that's been diluted in water. You can't see it, but the level of the drumhead/paint is a bit below the rim of the drums, so that most of the stray droplets are caught. Between that and the trampoline nature of the drumhead, most of it goes straight up. If you ever get the chance to see them live, you can see a few drops of paint landing on the makeup, as well as the sticks. Depending on which sketches they're performing, they'll use these drums to make paintings as well.

Re: The Animaniacs: Yakko's Universe Song
Every few years there's a children's TV series or two that manage to be intelligent and entertaining at the same time. Schoolhouse Rock, Animaniacs, Pinky and The Brain, Bill Nye, and so forth. Each generation takes the shows that they develop with for granted because they don't appreciate just how much they are learning, then marvel when they're a little older. Sadly, we're currently in a dry spell for TV, but that's compensated by the reading blitz of Harry Potter and the sophistication of some of the video games out there.
Regardless, while these kinds of entertainment definitely help, they will never replace the importance of a dedicated education.

Re: Elvis Costello & Attractions: Radio Radio
One of the ballsiest moves in that show's history. Nowadays if a band did something like that they'd have gotten screenofdeathed.

Re: Family Guy: Lois Kills Stewie
Wow, you know. That's really sad.
Besides, it isn't necessarily so. Look at a strapless gown sometime. Her top's probably tight enough that it wouldn't flap over.

Re: Exo Squad: Episode 05: Resist
Wow, that show was even worse than I remembered. Awesome toys though, think I still have one or two boxed away somewhere...

Re: Transforming Transformer Costume
Not quite as good as the one of Starscream, but still, pretty good.

Re: 30 Minutes of 90's Cartoon Openings
I wonder where the Nicktoons are? Definately an amusing clip to watch though, brings back many lunchtable discussions.
On a side note, how many freaking shows about Sonic the Hedgehog were there? I don't even think they got all of them.

Re: Ukulele Unplugged
I rather like how everyone joins in at the end. You just don't see too many people willing to go out on a limb and stand out for a little fun these days, especially at an airport!

Re: Star Wars: Deleted Magic
Mostly because it would be too hard to fit that scene in without a followup, and the followup he had planned would have changed the audience's opinion of Luke's Uncle too much. Strange, but eh, his choice. The scene I really wish he had left in was the first podrace in Episode 1, where Anakin crashes. it really set up the Tatooine characters better.

Re: Squirrel Obstacle Course for Peanuts
It's just a matter of constructing the other stands so that it can't climb up them.

Re: Animatrix Beyond
Aye. Watching this it reminds me of just what the matrix movies could have been. Such a shame that they let the need for a quick buck and flashy effects ruin the last two movies.
