Thanks.

Maybe I should be made an admin, at least of the movies section, so I can just fix that stuff instead of having to bother you.

it's not a big bother, except during NaNoWriMo. And actually, even them I usually allow any distraction that comes my way.

Anyway, I have no problem with you being an admin. I thought that was something we'd talked about before. I don't need to do all the edits, though I'm glad to work on it, I see my main focus as controlling content release, ie, making sure we get content and that it shows up when we need it.

Y'know, as Pixar shorts go, I didn't think that was a very good one. I mean, better than some, but not really good.

It was horrible.  It was technically good, good CGI etc... but the theme was boring and painfully, even predictably, PC.  Orson Scott Card points out that the reason the audience found the sheared sheep funny was not because he was pink but because he was naked. Big difference, interesting moral message to the short when viewed in that light.

Yeah. I thought it wasn't even CLOSE to thinking about being near as good as the other Pixar shorts. No neato factor at all. It had a jackalope (woo!), but just wasn't funny. The previous ones have had a slice-of-life sense to them, but not this one.

This one kind of scared me. That Jackolope thing was creepy. As well most of the other critters were too. Who would of thought you could make such cute creatures look so dang creepy and ugly by giving them human-like features.

"For the Birds" still is my favorite.  I can't get over the fact that when the birds start to bicker at the beginning you can actually tell what they're saying because they're so expressively animated.

And again - naked birds= funny.
