I’m almost willing to bet a substantial amount of money on the possibility that I’m the only one on this entire staff, let alone the readership that remembers this show. Even as a child, self-absorbed to the point of self-rectal-disappearance, I was painfully aware of how unpopular it was. I mean, sure it was popular […]

In 2001, while I withered my youth away in secondary school, I picked up a little bit of an addiction. Truthfully, I watched Samurai Jack to the point of near obsession, even going so far as to keep a babysitting job with what was possibly Ireland’s creepiest father for the sole purpose of watching the show.

Without a doubt every little girl (or boy) has imagined what their prince charming will look like and whether or not they’ll ever show up. Most of our perceptions have come from the fairytales we read as children and the Disney princes and princesses we grew up adoring and admiring. Now Melbourne based digital artist, Jirka […]

Initial Release: Somehow we always seem to circle back to the king of our sadly forgotten childhoods, Don Bluth. Maybe not so much for boys growing up, but for girls this was a widely watched film and I can remember it was always shown on the television anytime it was a school or public holiday. Perhaps […]

We all have that movie that was shoved into the VCR during times when we needed a pick-me-up. When we were sick, by a mother desperate to stifle our whiny moans of a sore tummy, or after eating too much junk food, or to cleanse our viewing palette after Saturday morning cartoons. For me, that […]

So, I’ve been singing the theme song for this show in my head for most of my adult life. If I’m being honest, it’s probably one of the best intros in cartoon history, but that’s just my opinion. This was one of those shows you raced home to watch; flinging your schoolbag into a corner […]
