Just what I need. An endorsement from Nutbar McSurlydrunk. Now alls I need is a letter jacket and a motorcycle and then I can check in permanently as the mayor of Coolsville.
Can ya dig it, daddy-O? ( Now, that's a nutty question )
Wow, it's the interactive dog barf/poop scene I ended up putting waaaay too many half-hidden gags into!
There was a secret key to make the 'fireworks' gag happen even though you told me to cut it, because it just always made me crack up - but I have no clue what it was any more.
This is where I stand in the spotlight and sing "Memories", or something like that.

You seemed to be more about the "kids in the basement" idea back before they all started signing contracts with Cartoon Network, churning out mindless hackery.
I've had dreams about taking the "kids working from the basement system" and utilizing some kind of high tech wizardry in order to work it into some kind of sensible online production system.
A pipe-dream I know, but at least I have this blog to get a glimpse of what a sensible production system is supposed to do.

I miss those days. And I REALLY miss Cigarettes and the Weekend Pussy Hunt.
- trevor.
Did you re-draw that Bjork so she doesn't look like her, or was that drawing later re-used in the Bjork video ( I'm guessing the former )?
- trevor again.
You sure ask some nutty questions, Trevor.
"You sure ask some nutty questions, Trevor."

Nah, he's a good man, he's a good man.

Nah, he's a good man, he's a good man.

I'LL FIIIIIIIIND YOU!
That was one of the most delightful, demented turns in cartoon history.

I've never been for that.
I've always wanted to do skilled collaborative popular mainstream cartoons.
That takes time, money, a production system, natural creative evolution, training and some distributon.
I've been waiting for the internet to make the distribution easier, but it doesn't eliminate the need for the other factors.
"Independent animation" has been around forever. That's not what I want to do.
It's too stagnant a process.
I see.
I did not mean that's what you wanted to do, I meant you just seemed more supportive of it at one time, sort of speak.
"I've been waiting for the internet to make the distribution easier, but it doesn't eliminate the need for the other factors."
Yes that is the ultimate flaw of the net. No one has perfected a distribution system that could work yet.

Have you done a post with your collaboration with Bjork? It would be great to hear some details.
I want to see a large image of that Corn Waste cereal box.
Brilliant idea!
