Terrible, terrible news

I was searching http://toonzone.net forum when I came across this topic that said something about Nick Animation in Burbank, California CLOSING DOWN!!! That's right, closing down according to http://www.cartoonbrew.com. For thoes, who work there, I hope they find animation studios that are just as good as NA (like, for instance, in their own basements. Most cartoonist I know work in their basements.) All the worrying about this might cause some of my favorite cartoons to "Junp the shark." I probably said this once, though I'll say it again (slightly different), I wonder how the people who work (or worked there) feel about finding places to draw, write, and tape their shows to send to the Nickelodeon for us good watchers. The building came in business somewhere in 1998. The animation studio had to die young, didn't it? Well, I'm not sure if it's true or not because I only saw the article in one place. Probably Butch (Hartman) said something in his forum about it under the news section. I'm really sad to hear that the Nick Animation building at 231 Olive Ave. in Burbank, C.A. is moving. The reason they have to move is probably because they need a larger pad of area. If you are clear why NA is moving, let me know. And, like it said at Cartoon Brew, for those who work there, "it's never too early to begin dismantling the building fixtures and starting your own Nick Studio memorabillia collection.

R.I.P. Nick Animation (1998-2005) (I may be wrong, if so, please forgive me.)

Vic's Review's VERY Last Gasp...on Blogger

Well, you saw this coming, didn't you? As I have told you in a previous post, this blog on Blogger will no longer be updated with new reviews. However, for historical and nostalgic purposes, the blog will remain up. I may or may not want to make another blog with Blogger. If so, what will the new blog be about? Blogger is a fine platform that had handled this blog very well through the years. It was very usable for blog beginners. Even I noticed the ease of use when starting this blog, my first blog. Though many things have changed since 2004, this platform is still very usable. I have the new blog set up but I have not posted anything yet. I was waiting to close out this blog first. This is made with the WordPress that was an option from my web hosting account (in other words, "wordpress.org," the non-free version). I am learning more about WordPress design/development so the blog will improve with time. The first post will come soon. Please stay tuned! http://ww...

StipinCHOUstipiction

Originally Written 19-22 October 2016 I was looking back at a Cartoon Network Fridays show from 10 September 2004 and, as usual, it made me feel like I was still in that time period. It also included the "Wurd [sic] of the Day" segment. Remember how the ridiculously made-up word was introduced then a child from the audience spelled out the word spelling bee style? The word on the screen as introduced was spelled exactly like this: Stiptinchoustipiction. Used in a sentence, as said by Long Haul in his 18-wheeler, "I ordered me a chicken nugget and it was dipped in 'choustipiction'" (I doubt it was supposed to make sense). Then it sped over to the audience with their attention on a girl leaned over a low microphone spelling the word. All went well until she substituted the U with a W (StiptinchoWstipiction). Sometimes in this segment when the child has finished spelling, a voice would say, "That is...correct!" Not this time. They just went to the c...

Top 10 Things I Learned from Making Vic's Review

Hello again! I hope all is well. I have been coming up with some great ideas for reviews in the past years and I feel I have the energy and talent to write them. However, they will NOT be on this blog. As I may have mentioned in an earlier post, I will be continuing this blog on a different platform. I feel the content on this old blog will be no fit for the topics and writing style of my current days. It's time to move on. More information will be coming shortly. Before my farewells, here are 10 things I have learned from writing this blog on and off for the past nearly 14 years. NOTE: click the linked content at your own risk. 10. Proofread and learn to spell! I've been reading many of my earlier post and have been thinking "Aw, man, what was I thinking? That 'your' is supposed to be 'you're'" and other errors such as misspelling character names. This may have been a time before spell check was standard in browsers. Now granted, when doin...
