Disney’s Big Hero 6 Official Theatrical Trailer

Disney’s Big Hero 6 looks like it might be a lot of fun.  It opens Nov. 7, 2014 in 3D.

Per Disney’s Site:

With all the heart and humor audiences expect from Walt Disney Animation Studios, “Big Hero 6” is an action-packed comedy-adventure about robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada, who learns to harness his genius—thanks to his brilliant brother Tadashi and their like-minded friends: adrenaline junkie Go Go Tamago, neatnik Wasabi, chemistry whiz Honey Lemon and fanboy Fred. When a devastating turn of events catapults them into the midst of a dangerous plot unfolding in the streets of San Fransokyo, Hiro turns to his closest companion—a robot named Baymax—and transforms the group into a band of high-tech heroes determined to solve the mystery. Inspired by the Marvel comics of the same name, and featuring comic-book style action, “Big Hero 6” is directed by Don Hall (“Winnie the Pooh”) and Chris Williams (“Bolt”), and produced by Roy Conli (“Tangled”).

Going Batty With “Batman: The Animated Series” Storyboards & Script

Batman_animated_seriesBatman: The Animated Series was first broadcast on Fox from September 1992 to September 1995.  It was the first entry in what would turn into a new DC shared continuity universe.   And it also surprisingly took on a much more adult tone.  It was a show where both kids and adults could enjoy alike.

Treking on with the Animated Star Trek Storyboards & Script

beholder1WIKI ON

“Star Trek: The Animated Series (originally known as simply Star Trek, but also known as The Animated Adventures of Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek) is an animated science fiction television series set in the Star Trek universe following the events of Star Trek: The Original Series of the 1960s. The animated series was aired under the name Star Trek, but it has become widely known under this longer name (or abbreviated as ST: TAS or TAS) to differentiate it from the original live-action Star Trek. The success in syndication of the original live action series and fan pressure for a Star Trek revival led to The Animated Series from 1973–1974, as the source of new adventures of the Enterprise crew, the next being the 1979 live-action feature film Star Trek: The Motion Picture.”

Happy Happy Joy Joy: It’s the Ren & Stimpy Storyboards

First off, let me get this out of the way…

Okay, now we can move on.

Ren & Stimpy was quite the cutting edge show of it’s time.  It aired on Nickelodeon from 1991 to 1996.  But why don’t I let Wikipedia tell the story (because they do it so much better than I).

The Amazing Animated Spider-man Script & Writer’s Guide

spider-man-animated-1994Spider-man: The Animated Series that aired on Fox from 1994-1998 was the best of all the animated Spider-man programs to date. Each episode actually consisted of a story and an attempt at character development.  As storytelling in live action television seems to have evolved over the years, many of these animated programs (not included the prime time ones) have de-evolved.  I feel as if the newer animated programs have really been dumbed-down and their target audience seems to be aimed at five year olds (which is fine if you’re a five year old).
