Title: The Animation Show on DVD

If you are a fan of short animations and have wanted someone to program a collection of rare, hard to find or foreign shorts on one DVD for under $20, this is your thing. This was put together by Mike Judge and Don Hertzfeld. Judge we all know very well for Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill, but Hertzfeld is the other jewel of the duo. A short clip of his work can be found in the avatar of one of the members on this board: two stick figures shouting at each other while one beats on the paper, creasing it. I'm buying this. I love shorts and I love animations. This is a dream come true. I'll review it when it arrives and I am done rolling around in the packaging.

Interesting, I will have to put it on my list.  Over the years, I have run across several collections of animation shorts and they are often well worth watching.  While you might encounter a couple that fall flat, there are others that are hidden like easter eggs.  Now, if I could just find a collection with "Skywhales" in it.

Oh, the avatar with the two stick figures?  I named that file "takeonme.gif"

Yeah, I love that avatar.  "Rejected" is pure classic.


"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, MY ANUS IS BLEEDING!"

I wish Hertzfeld would do some type of feature animated film.  The guy has a truly unique sense of humor.

Well ...
I got it... (rented)
I watched it...
It was disappointing.

No where as good as past releases. I couple or three decent bits most of it was boring and poorly done.

2 STARS and I'm being nice.
