Linkshoch Wonderful Movie

ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . Animated Shorts Seers division concerning America's upcoming Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti (which famed Looney Tunes director Chuck Jones more or less confessed during an archival interview--included as a "Bonus Feature" on one of Warner Bros. Home Video's 712 Looney Tunes DVD's--was perhaps the main mission of the Termite Terracers during their 1930s through 1950s heydays) is the highlight of A GREAT BIG BUNCH OF YOU, otherwise a pretty forgettable title ditty. This brief cartoon opens with a geriatric fraudster (he's wearing 15 hats, for Pete's sake!) moseying along with a horse-drawn wagon from the 1800s on his way to drop America over a cliff into a Refuse Dump. This dumpster is obviously the Looney Tuner's symbol for our future Codger-in-Chief, White House Resident-Elect Rump. Consigning America's Youth, whose job prospects have almost entirely been turned over to "more productive" robots (NOT subject to the below-poverty-level minimum wage, by the way--they do our work for NOTHING!!), off the cliff of No Return into the Wasteland of Trash is EXACTLY what I heard Putin's Billionaire Party flunky U.S. Senator Rand Paul predict is imminent in Our Millennial Future: Sen. Paul said on CNN this morning that Medicaid surely will be cut this week so that each U.S. Billionaire Oligarch can add at least 10 billion MORE to their Smaug-like dragon's gold hoard, while hundreds if not millions of us are bull-dozed into Early Graves.Warner Bros. is using A GREAT BIG BUNCH OF YOU to scream at Sen. Paul that it is NOT the fault of Millennials that Job-Killing Corrupt Capitalists have replaced the People's Jobs with robots. Warner Bros.' graphic depiction of America's Youth being land-filled is a CALL TO ARMS (don't miss the scene in which three toy soldiers come to life and gun down three Fat Cat Booze Bottles with REAL BULLETS!). So far, Sen. Paul, you've fallen for would-be USA Czar\Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "Mad Dog" Putin's Evil Plan to foment a Generational Civil War in America. Just because you're named after that Commie mouthpiece Ayn Rand doesn't mean that you can't wise up, Rand, and be part of the solution rather than a Red Commie Russian Stooge Big Piece of the Problem!

Robert Reynolds This is a one-shot cartoon produced by Warner Brothers. There will be spoilers ahead:One of the things Warner Brothers wanted from their animated shorts was for them to plug items in the WB music catalog. Thus the titles of the shorts were typically taken from songs in that catalog and a cartoon with at best a loose plot (or in this instance, no plot to speak of) was built more or less around the song.In this case, a junk wagon is taking a load to the dump. There's the almost obligatory chamberpot joke, with a neat little twist at the end of the gag. The focus of the short is a mannequin which is dumped at the beginning. He fashions a piano and begins playing the title song and the short is basically sights gags from then on.There are a couple of caricatures (Maurice Chevalier and band-leader Ted Lewis, who would have been well-known 80 years ago, but who is largely forgotten today) and there's a visual using the RCA Victor logo somewhat creatively. Otherwise, there's a handful of puns and rather average sight gags. Some marching soldiers sink Washington crossing the Delaware, which turns into "The Spirit of '76" and a "Grandfather" clock becomes a sort of maypole for some alarm clocks, for example. The ending is cute, predictable and possibly an editorial comment of sorts.This is worth seeing once.

Dawalk-1 Firstly, I'm sorry the last commentator here couldn't/didn't feel this Warners/Merrie Melodies short and has no appreciation for a real good thing when it's seen. Secondly, concerning the title song that's performed here, it's better and I rather listen to that than the crunk/snap/auto-tune based rap/hip-hop mess that had hit the commercial/mainstream music scene this decade. Also, I like the early, black and white cartoons as much as the colored ones. This is one of my favorite b&w animated featurettes. I find the title tune to be the stuck-in-your-head-in-a-good-way kind of catchy. The last reviewer is probably into the sub-genres of music I just stated, that might be why that reviewer couldn't get into this. If that case is true, then I'm sorry, something must be wrong with him not to be grabbed by this.After being carried in a wagon (by the way, not truck), pulled by a drowsy junkman and his drowsy horse, the bumps the hit along the way causes the wagon to jerk and all the things to fall into a dump. One of them is a male mannequin, who comes to life after a clock bonks him on the head. He finds an old piano and after substituting the missing strings with a row of bedsprings, he begins playing the title song. Soon, all the other junkyard denizens join in the act. I find this to be entertaining, don't take the second reviewer's word, see for yourselves. If this doesn't put smiles on your faces and get y'all in a good mood, then I'm not sure what else will.

beyond_the_lake I first discovered this cartoon on a show called Late Night Black & White on Cartoon Network. As a fan of black and white cartoons, I eagerly stayed up later than usual to watch this show. It turned out to be well worth it because of this adorable little piece stuck right into the middle of the episode. It begins as a wooden doll falls out of a junk truck and into a pit filled with other interesting pieces of furniture, including everything from a clumsy dancing grandfather clock to three dress dummies who serve as back-up singers. What ensues is an upbeat musical barrel of giggles that everyone will love, no matter what age. Whether you saw it when it was new or are just getting into black and white cartoons, A Great Big Bunch of You is sure to capture and delight you.
