    You WIll Need To Reset Your Password!!!

    We just moved hosts on this system, and this has caused a few updates. One is the way we encode and store the encoded passwords.

    Your old passwords will NOT work. You will need to reset your password. This is normal. Just click on reset password from the log in screen. Should be smooth as silk to do...

    Sorry for the hassle.

    Other Side Of Maleficent

    I have been looking forward to Maleficent with equal amounts of anticipation and dread. On one hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, so cold and so pure, and I want desperately to see more of her and her back-story. On the other hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, and I would hate to see her parodied, taken lightly or ultimately destroyed in a film that does not understand this great character. The good news is that this film almost gets it right; but that is also the bad news.

    Disney To Feast In France

    The follow up to Disney’s 2013 Academy Award Winning short Paperman has been announced, and it will premiere at France’s Annecy International Animated Film Festival. Titled The Feast, the short looks to be based on the same stylized CG techniques used on last years Paperman, a more natural and hand-drawn look to computer animation.

    Renegades of Animation: Pat Sullivan

    Pat Sullivan became famous worldwide for his creation of Felix the Cat. What most animation histories gloss over is Sullivan’s checkered past and longtime standing as a wildcat renegade. He didn’t follow the rules. And he made damn sure to fully protect his intellectual properties.

    I heard that The United States would tone-down the nudity and violence in anime, but are there any form of censorship in anime throughout the entire world?

    Japan is not permitted to show uncensored below-the-waist nudity on characters or real people...unless they are babies but....other than that, no, not really. The United States doesn't really have control on censoring anime either but they will do so for airing it on TV for American broadcast standards.

    I hear in most parts of Asia...the censorship is a little more strict than the states. Even though America had The Comic Code Authority which was VERY strict with comic books...so if there was a Lady Godiva story...in the states, she'd look like Cousin Itt.

    Yes, though it depends on which countries and the content itself. China on the whole seems incredibly strict with all kinds and they've banned a LOT of titles there. There is a meme going around that "if your favorite show gets banned in China, that makes it cool". :D

    It only seems that South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan are laid-back on censorship...like how only Canada, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, and Argentina are (probably) the only countries in Asia and Americas...respectfully...don't care much about nudity.

    Trust me with Canada...they'll show butts on some videos.
