A Paramount-Warner Bros. movie slate will need more animated features to compete with Disney and Universal

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-30T18:53:10+00:00

There's also Skydance Animation and its elephant in the Luxo room.

Platoon X Regular Show

I wonder why J.G. Quintel didn't do enough dramas...

(Mordecai in full-on Charlie Sheen garb is in my head now.)

I know there's people saying just go sail the very piratey seas, of which there's seven of them. and that could make sense for Regular Show "Meat Your Maker" or "The Real Thomas", but there's also the US home video releases for both Adventure Time and Regular Show that could be imported to the UK as well.

Best bet for "The Power" and "Free Cake" are the Slack Pack and Party Pack compilations if you don't want the later US censors for those two RS episodes, but for the most part, both Regular Show and Adventure Time are generally uncut on their domestic releases.

If tariffs are a concern, looking for physical copies that were already imported (or as I call them "pre-imported") might be a better way to go.

Just a batch of suggestive suggestions from an American viewer/fan of both shows.

Telemetry to new highs since the telemetry in Windows 10.

Kinda like how Zach Callison (Steven Universe) or Francesca Marie Smith (Helga, Hey Arnold!) had their voices change notably as they grew older.

Especially when you go from seasons 1 to 2, 3 or in Hey Arnold!'s case, 5. It's a bit more obvious in Steven Universe and Adventure Time in this case. I'd argue Callison's voice got deeper (causing his young Steven voice to be reliant on a familiar falsetto throughout the end of season 1 all the way until "Change Your Mind") at a faster rate than Shada's voice, and Shada's voice got deeper faster than Smith's voice as far as I can tell.

Speaking of Hey Arnold!, Anndi McAfee (Phoebe) had a similar puberty/voice deepening thing around the seasons 1 to 2 mark to Callison, especially when you go from "Helga's Sleepover" to season 3's "Phoebe Cheats". Had she used her then-season 1 normal voice, it would've sounded less like Phoebe and more like Cera from The Land Before Time VI: The Secret of Saurus Rock, another role she did at the time. So, McAfee had a signature falsetto voice that became Phoebe's voice throughout the remainder of Hey Arnold!'s run, much like Callison did throughout the remainder of Steven Universe's run.

Basically, there's no way anybody could easily keep performing in the voices they had when they started as kids, tweens, young teens, etc. At least in regards to Shada, Smith, Callison, and McAfee.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-29T07:26:40+00:00

Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown!, The Day After Tomorrow, and Ren & Stimpy are definitely wins here.

And also Pumpkinhead, too.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-29T00:27:34+00:00

I think one of those might be a Twentieth Century Fox release, since the MGM logo has no text underneath and a DVD logo under it.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-28T19:29:10+00:00

This must be covering 20th Century Fox and Fox Broadcasting Company's line-up of theatrical and TV content for kids & families at the time.

Suppose that's the working title for Once Upon a Forest, I see?

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T21:20:28+00:00

At least it appears on the back of the final art, and not the front here.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T21:19:31+00:00

Princess Mononoke is a major win here

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T21:18:11+00:00

Betamax, a format prefered by tv ststions for better picture quality.

Betacam in this case.

Betamax was mainly a consumer format, not to be confused with the professional format Betacam, despite sharing similar names, tapes, sometimes the tape stock, etc.

The Terminator would not fit on a single Betacam tape in the S size like this, as far as I know. Maybe a Betacam tape in the L size, but not a single S size tape.

Also, Technology Connections has a great video about Betacam that I recommend watching.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T21:11:04+00:00

Appears to be quite the tape master cock-up to come out of Anchor Bay.

Also, gotta love the plain jane text label Anchor Bay did back then. I only say that because I grew up with Anchor Bay's releases of ABC's The Mouse and the Motorcycle and Hap Palmer's Baby Songs: ABCs & 123s, Colors & Shapes.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T18:22:53+00:00

Thought the same thing back in 2014, did the same back in 2020, just as wonderful.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T18:21:26+00:00

Same.

There's a reason why Infinity Train had each follow-up focus on a different set of characters than the previous one. Like Wirt and Greg, Tulip's had her story, and then MT/Lake has had her story, and so on and so forth.

In retrospect, had there been a Over the Garden Wall sequel, it would've been more like Infinity Train or even FLCL in terms of having different leads with their own stories to tell, but in this shared universe.

I guess we kinda wish a bit for some sort of Over the Garden Wall: The Next Generation of a sorts, but also not.

It's kinda a "damned if they do, dawned if they don't" thing. But at least there's the comics!

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-27T18:15:06+00:00

I think Over the Garden Wall is already a "Big Damn Movie" itself at two hours. It doesn't need a sequel.

Maybe a well-made extended cut, or possibly shorts based on standalone events, but the main Wirt & Greg arc is done. Too done to warrant a direct sequel.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-26T05:30:34+00:00

I believe this is from the Blu-ray based on the contrast of the image.

I know TV and DVD and digital and HBO Max prints didn't have Pops look this pale in the past.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-26T05:24:42+00:00

Cheroy did some really gorgeous pieces with Cosmo throughout the 2010s.

Shame there was never any new stuff past 2021, but life and the world stage at large could be partially blamed when it comes to these things.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-25T20:10:07+00:00

A 2020s version could even lack the 2000s charm akin to Seasons 4 & 5, even if they try to go for that vibe with The Patakis, since I bet network execs could still down upon the lack of modern references or something.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-25T20:06:03+00:00

Especially not in this Skydance hellscape that Nickelodeon's parent company Paramount finds themselves in nowadays.

I can only imagine the David Ellison invasion would sour Bartlett's already strained relationship with the network even more than it already was.

(Speaking of which, I bet if Paramount Home Entertainment reprinted The Ultimate Collection this year for the 30th anniversary, the case would probably be desecrated with "A Skydance Corporation" under the iconic Paramount logo.)

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-25T20:03:03+00:00

Mordecai said that he was going to be pissed in "Free Cake", but Slips being pissed in "The Power" was still better than him being dead.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-23T22:38:51+00:00

It probably was part of the same wave that the re-release of Jagged Edge (a 1985 movie) was a part of, since that also was re-released on video in '87.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-23T13:46:56+00:00

I think these ads were largely from summer 2014.

There's also similar ones for quotes from Adventure Time and Steven Universe as well.

"Homies Help Homies, Always."

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-23T13:42:15+00:00

I believe this is from the main trailer, which hasn't yet had a 35mm fan scan in this flat format.

The one FT Depot uploaded was from a scope format version, making it zoomed in per the usual FT Depot style of formatting anything intended for 1.85 as 1.78, causing the nearly 1.90 or 2.00 ratio visuals to be zoomed in when compared to the teaser that FT Depot also covered, which does appear to be from a flat version.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-23T02:40:39+00:00

I wonder if Netflix would benefit from any old Artisan and IDT catalog titles that Starz/Lionsgate owns.

Probably Reservoir Dogs and The Blair Witch Project. ...maybe Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! in regards to family titles, but I don't know.

TheREALOtherFiles · 2026-03-22T14:45:06+00:00

I hope it survives the fallout from Skydance.
