The MoFo Animated Musicals Hall of Fame

It was actually pretty crappy Gatsby, I need to edit and structure the hell out of it when I can be bothered. Thanks though .

Also with me, you, JJ, Swan and Gunslinger I have hope that it won't finish last.

I know they are very different movies, but isn't that what a Hof is about? Comparing movies to see which one is the best?

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

I was considering rewatching South Park tonight, but after viewing a couple of those clips, I think I'm going to go with something that won't annoy me instead.

What is it that annoys you about South Park so much?

I watched the South Park movie already, and I'm sure that I won't be any help keeping it out of last place. The songs were kind of catchy, and they might have been okay if they had better words, but the movie just wasn't my kind of humor at all.

I can understand that. Honestly i would claim someone had hacked your account if you came out with a positive view of it .

I don't know. I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe it's the fact that the humor is so juvenile? But then, I liked other juvenile shows like Beavis and Butthead and Ren & Stimpy, but I was pretty much a kid when those were popular so they have some nostalgic value. I was already well into my teens when South Park premiered.

The characters' voices do annoy the crap out of me though. I know that much.

Short Version: It was okay.

Long Version: Okay this was when Don Bluth threw in the towel and said "You win" to Disney. The man was at one time a chief animator at Disney and then became a main competitor and major box office rival with the likes of All Dogs Go to Heaven, The Secret of NIMH, The Land Before Time, and An American Tale. Then the Disney Renaissance happened and he hit skid row with Rock-A-Doodle, The Penguin and the Pebble, A Troll in Central Park, and finally Titan AE. This was Don trying to make Disney money by doing his spin on a Disney style princess movie. This even had scenes that looked like they were pulled from Sleeping Beauty. A film he worked on as an uncredited assistant animator. So the story is very much a Disney rip off and I found the voices of John Cusack and Meg Ryan to be pretty damn distracting. So I had seen this all before and done far better by Disney.

But there are positives. Christopher Lloyd is over the top in his character and the film is better for it. Not to mention the actual musical parts are on the whole very good. Luckily Meg Ryan and Cusack were not asked to sing and the actors who do their characters singing voices were quite good. But there is one song that is heads and shoulders above it the quality department. And that was Rasputin's villain song In the Dark of the Night. Easily the best part of the movie.



Piece of trivia though. The song was NOT sung by Christopher Lloyd, but by voice acting titan Jim Cummings. But he sounds so much like Lloyd that you would think he was the man singing. But that is to be expected from a legendary talent like Jim Cummings.. After all he did another voice over cover for another animated villain. One that is actually nominated in this Hall of Fame. Jim Cummings sang the song "Be Prepared" in The Lion King, not Jeremy Irons.



So Cummings vocal pipes and the music makes this film very worth while.

I've never seen an episode of "South Park", so I was hoping that I was wrong about it. I watch "The People's Court" every day, and Judge Milian talks about the show a lot, so I figured that it can't be all bad, and I tried to go in with an open mind, but I just don't see what people find funny about that kind of humor.

Who the hell is Judge Milian?

Who the hell is Judge Milian?

I honestly had no idea who that was either, but that smile terrifies me
