Year of the Toon
I wrote an article called "Year of the Toon" for CGCHAR. Nothing special, but give it a read. Something must be wrong when I'm writing for another website while my blog goes almost un-updated. (End of post)

Pixar Running on Fumes
Cars was an incredible bit of lighting, textures, shading, and animation. Too bad the story was boring and putting people asleep. For the first time in a Pixar film, I heard kids paying attention to everything but the movie. Standing up, walking around, talking, totally not into the film. My wife was shuffling as well with her head propped up against her hand in boredom. I even caught myself daydreaming.
The lighting and realism was pretty breathtaking. But I ask myself, "Is this really what I want out of an animated movie?" It was different and technically impressive. Everything else left me uninspired.
Watching animated cars for two hours was too much. Maybe I needed to be a car fanatic to watch this thing. But, I couldn't care about about any of the characters.
Everything felt forced. This was Pixar's first crapper, if you were to ask me.

Rumor Central - Disney Toon
I've been busy on a few projects and haven't had time to write. However, that hasn't stopped me from hearing rumors and now passing them on here. The latest? Another Disney Toons slashing.
The rumor is that Disney Toons let go of several department heads. Either 4 or 5 have been let go along with a development executive. Sharon still holds tight and continues to dodge bullets as everyone else gets peppered. I'm sure she is a little more than nervous that she may be next.
