Here's a sampling of volume 5: AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL CARTOON REVOLUTION VOL 05 - $10.00 Life is complicated. So having cartoon characters help explain things make everything easier, as you’ll discover with this 5th volume of Something Weird’s wacky-with-a-purpose Industrial Cartoons series! Easy Does It (1946; color) is a 25-minute sales pitch for Stokely Foods – with a surprising degree of lechery attached. Joe works in Mr. Fuddle’s grocery store, which is on the verge of closing because they don’t sell the brands people want. Worse, the bank is about to foreclose on the store unless Mr. Squeeze, the hilariously sleazy bank president, marries Fuddle’s daughter Ann. While Mr. Squeeze is busy seducing her, Joe gets a visit from a little magical man named Easy who uses a flying time machine to take Joe back 60 years to show him the birth of Stokely Foods. Easy also introduces Joe to a giant on a cloud, and happy tomatoes getting washed and cooked in the modern Stokely plant (which, all things considered, is borderline disturbing). End result: Fuddle’s store becomes stocked with Stokley foods which the customers love! And Ann? Why Joe races to the Justice of the Peace just before Squeeze is about to marry her and beats the crap out of him! Directed by HUGH HARMAN. Man of Action (1955; color) is the story of an “average man in an average home” whose average town becomes a slum overnight! And it’s all the fault of Satan! Yup, Satan encourages people to let their homes get run down until the neighborhood falls apart and the community is full of “juvenile delinquency, alcoholism, and crime!” Unless, of course, citizens fight back! How? With bureaucracy! Look Who’s Driving (color) gives us cartoon characters that drive like psychotic idiots and behave like crazed children on the road. Until they get into an accident and die. Then they float around like ghosts. Tell ‘Em the Facts (color) has Gulf Oil calmly reminding us why their gasoline is better than anyone else’s gasoline. And it’s all because of their “balanced volatility” and “antiknock value.” You betcha. The Soldier’s Hour (color) was made for Army personnel in charge of re-enlistment as a way of stemming the tide of soldiers leaving after their hitch is up. The trick is to zero in on certain kinds of soldiers… like former factory workers. But, hey, stay away from farmers. Avoidable Carrier Accidents (1949; color) defines stupid sailors who crash their planes on aircraft carriers as the same stupid sailors who do dumb things on leave. Ah, the joy of stupidity. The Adventures of Junior Raindrop (color) is the story of cutesy raindrops who… well… go wrong once they get to earth. Because of forest fires or badly managed land, raindrops like Junior become “hoodlum raindrops” (!), get involved “with gangs” (!!), and turn into “gangster” raindrops (!!!). Wow. My Government U.S.A. (color) explains government to a cartoon caveman named Ugh. That Ugh is impressed is no surprise since Ugh, after all, is a primitive man. American Industrial Cartoons 7 DVD Mega Set http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...v_hires3-1.jpg Challenge Starts August 1st at 12am EST Challenge ends September 1st at dawn Rules Movies/TV shows should be labeled Animation from either imdb.com or allmovie.com. Other labels don't matter as long as there is at least a Animation label from one of those sites. Action/Animation would be fine. This is the challenge where any and all types of animation is welcome, CGI, hand drawn, puppetry, stop motion, etc. The entire movie/show does not need to be completely animated. Something like Roger Rabbit or a Ray Harryhausen film would be allowed, as would all of the Star Wars movies. What isn't allowed are films/shows that use touches of CGI, or other forms of animation, that don't directly influence the film/show. The Others has a large amount of CGI landscaping during the opening credits as the car drives through the mountains but it doesn't really have anything to do with the film. Changeling is another example. While it has some scenes with CGI people in the background, that's all it amounts to in the story. If anyone has a problem with something someone watches or just wants an opinion on if it's animation or not, ask here. Animation documentaries are allowed but not DVD featurettes/interviews that are just fluff promo pieces. As with the other challenges, the lists must be numbered or it won't count. Movies count as 1 entry each. TV shows count according to length as they are aired on TV(including commercials):
If it's short films that are 10 minutes or less, once you hit 23 minutes of watching them, you've reached one 30 minute show. This is based on the theory that the run time for a 30 minute show is between 22-24 minutes. For mini series, do count each "day" that it aired (assuming that each day was a 2 hour block). For example, Animated Dune: The Mini Series, would it be: 63. Animated Dune: The Mini Series - Part I 64. Animated Dune: The Mini Series - Part II 65. Animated Dune: The Mini Seriies - Part III When listing TV shows, keep them together for one entry. Example: 65. South Park:episode name / Futurama: episode name / Futurama: episode name How do I list TV shows and other short stuff if I don't have enough for an entry?At the bottom of your post/list, keep a Temp TV section. Add stuff there until you get enough for an entry. Watching the movie/show with the commentary will count as an entry. Watching multiple versions(theatrical and director's cut) of the same movie/show will also count. Show what days you watched whatever it was you watched Example August 1: 1. Snow White 2. Toy Story 3 July 2: 3. Fantastic Mr. Fox I'm stealing the prize determination from the exploitation challenge. Names will be randomly selected from http://www.random.org/lists/ The top people, one prize per person, get something. There's 4 ways to get an entry:
The List Thread will be a couple weeks before the challenge begins. 3 wild cards for all. Use for those shows you want to watch but know they really don't count but they're pretty close or borderline to counting. |

I'm not sure how much longer these things will be free, but iTunes has been offering a lot of free TV episodes this summer. There's an assortment of Kids' Shows that includes some animated fare and another collection of free anime episodes here. I didn't see anything really mandatory in any of it, but everyone's taste is different. Plus, I wouldn't know a "good" anime if it came with a label. For all I know, it's the giveaway of the century.

I'm very excited for this one.

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
If I'm not totally burned out after this month's sci-fi challenge, I'll jump in. I've got a shelf of unwatched animation, especially old kids shows. And there's a good sized closet full of anime too...

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I actually went through my unwatched pile a few months back and separated all the animated titles...I've got plenty to keep me busy. :up:

In between movies you could cram in the cartoon shorts they'd show at theaters and drive-ins, since they count also. If someone else wants to just sit and watch Naruto and Pokemon, more power to them. Hopefully this challenge won't turn out to be a dud. |
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I've upgraded a lot of my Pixar/Disney movies to blu-ray and have been saving the re watch's just for this challenge, also been saving the Daria set for this. Those coupled with all the old nicktoons that Netflix added to streaming should be fun!

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Would episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus count, given that they include lots of little animated vignettes and such?
|
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
How exactly would we list the shorts? Title and length? Keep adding until it's 92 minutes?

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I assume something like Farscape would count, with all of its puppetry throughout? I was thinking of starting the series during the Sci-Fi challenge and continuing during the Animation challenge.

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Are there any ideas for the categories for the checklist?

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I've never done one of these before. I'm interested in participating because I plan to watch a lot of anime this summer. Can I participate if it's all or mostly just anime?
What about cartoon shorts, like the old seven-minute Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons? How do you count those? When you say "Start Checklist" and "Complete Checklist," what do you mean? Is there a checklist form that everyone has to use, or are you just referring to our own checklist that we make? Thanks. |

The checklist is coming, so the "Start Checklist" and "Complete Checklist" will make more sense soon. Or just look at the current Challenge, sci-fi/fantasy, to see things more clearly. |

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Think I may do this one... Been a while since the Holiday list and I have some animation stuff Ive been thinking about watching, and since TV is barren right now, this looks like the perfect chance.

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I couldn't wait. Started watching Ĉon Flux tonight since it qualifies for the Sci-Fi Challenge.
Still deciding on what to do next month, but at least a season of the Muppets for sure. |
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Still looking for checklist suggestions? Here's a few you might want to consider:
Watch and anime movie or series Watch a US kid's show that originally aired on Sat mornings Puppet show Mostly or all CGI Watch 90+ minutes worth of theatrical shorts (i.e Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny) Cartoon based on a newspaper comic strip These genres: Superhero cartoon Comedy Adventure Fantasy SF Watch a movie/show made by: Walt Disney Chuck Jones Ub Iwerks (??) Ralph Bakshi Fleischer Brothers Paul Dini And of course one from each decade. Just some ideas to get the conversation started. |

Won't be able to watch as much as I have for the Sci-Fi challenge. |
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Those look good John. I hate it when the checklists get too specific. (Even though I created lots of specific categories in the past. What can I say? I'm a conundrum.)
I love what MP has for a checklist for the unwatched threads. Spoiler:
It's all pretty much applicable to everyone. Every single person on the board that owns unwatched DVDs can fully participate in the checklist. Too often the categories in Challenge checklists are so limited that there are only 10 or so titles that even qualify, and some of those may not be on DVD. Checklists shouldn't force people to go into too many strange little nooks of a genre. A couple is fine, but ten is probably too many, imo. Make the checklist appear too complicated and many don't even want to touch it. But load it with "general" categories and make it look simple then more people will attempt it. Obviously, a Challenge checklist isn't going to be just like the monthly ones, there will be quirks to it, and it should be somewhat difficult to complete. Specifically on your suggestions I'd change these slightly: Watch and anime movie or show Watch a theatrical short (i.e Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny) |

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I have to admit that I like more specific checklists, though this year's SF challenge is the first time I've participated so I'll probably change my mind after a few more. I like looking at what people selected for different entries, especially when I'm stumped for what to watch. It's also nudges me to try something I wouldn't have otherwise. There's also more of a challenge to finishing it off. Finding a movie that starts with GHI is pretty trivial, but unearthing a movie from the 'parallel universe' sub-genre can take a bit of digging.
I totally agree that the checklist items shouldn't be too specific, and Trevor makes a good point about not going into too many nooks. Some of items are pretty limited in the SF Challenge (I'm having a hard time finding a non-Firefly/Serenity Space Western) but then there weren't a lot of people talking about it before hand and Peppers did give us a chance to comment. I'd like a mix of more and less specific entries so it would still be hard to complete, but not as hard as the 100 movie main goal. Trevor made a nice suggestion: Watch an anime movie or show Watch a theatrical short (i.e Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny) How about this: Watch an anime movie (or 4 episodes of a sereis) Watch theatrical shorts or (a movie). As for Miyazaki, I can't believe I missed that one. I'm even saving Ponyo for next month. D'oh! |

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I haven't participated in a challenge since the Academy Award one in the beginning of the year, but this one intrigues me. However I just recently got a new job and have very little time to do anything, so we'll see what I can do.

I think the checklist rules should be the same as the regular list rules: (about) 90 minutes = one movie.
How about this: Watch an anime movie (or 4 episodes of a sereis) Watch theatrical shorts or (a movie). As for Miyazaki, I can't believe I missed that one. I'm even saving Ponyo for next month. D'oh! |
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
So I went with a generic checklist because I'm incredibly lazy and I'm busy doing the sci-fi challenge, of course! Items marked - length doesn't matter mean that items of any length count. If it doesn't have that, you either need something full length or enough short items to count as an entry.
We'll see how this works out and change it for next year if needed. Any suggestions to the checklist before the challenge starts are always welcome. |

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
Another sponsor added. Would've been added sooner but that's my fault.
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...miltonbook.gif Two Sets of Thundercats: Season Two, Volumes 1 and 2 http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...ndercats21.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...ndercats22.jpg One copy of Danger Mouse: Seasons 1 and 2 http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...angermouse.jpg One copy of The Neverending Story http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...ndingstory.jpg So if you win Thundercats, you're getting the entire second season because they're much nicer than I would have been :) |
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I'm not sure what everyone else has planned but I'm starting off with some short toons followed by feature films, mostly Disney stuff I haven't seen. After that it's all special effects type stuff. Pretty much just going with whatever I'm in the mood for.
|
Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
I'm still horribly disappointed I wasn't able to even participate in, much less host, the Historical challenge as I'd planned, and I've missed most of the Sci-Fi (though I intend to cram some stuff in for my own enjoyment in these last few days). Animation in August sounds good, and the chance to score some ThunderCats? Too cool for school!

Re: August Animation Challenge 2010 - Discussion Thread
