The Late, Great Arthur Rankin

We’ve been off for a few weeks, folks. To make it up to you, we’ve taken three different nights of recordings and compiled the best of it into a single, somewhat random show.

In the first segment, we reach out to you, the fans, to generate some topics for you. In the second half, Ben and I talk animation news, including the deaths of Hal Sutherland and Arthur Rankin.

An Octadic of Whimsical Evenings

Hi folks. Neil here. Joining Ben and me this week is once again Kittyhawk, and we watched Eight Crazy Nights. Yes, I know Hanukkah is well behind us, but that’s okay. This movie isn’t really about Hanukkah anyway. Nor is it about Christmas. In fact, much in the same way Die Hard 2 takes place during the Christmas season, the holiday theme is merely a backdrop here. There is no holiday spirit here at all, except apparently for a push pin that somehow blew out all eighteen tires of a bus out of town. Yep, even the main character couldn’t escape this turd.

This movie is so foul that I almost turned it off.
