    Other Side Of Maleficent

    I have been looking forward to Maleficent with equal amounts of anticipation and dread. On one hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, so cold and so pure, and I want desperately to see more of her and her back-story. On the other hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, and I would hate to see her parodied, taken lightly or ultimately destroyed in a film that does not understand this great character. The good news is that this film almost gets it right; but that is also the bad news.

    The follow up to Disney’s 2013 Academy Award Winning short Paperman has been announced, and it will premiere at France’s Annecy International Animated Film Festival.

    Renegades of Animation: Pat Sullivan

    Pat Sullivan became famous worldwide for his creation of Felix the Cat. What most animation histories gloss over is Sullivan’s checkered past and longtime standing as a wildcat renegade. He didn’t follow the rules. And he made damn sure to fully protect his intellectual properties.

    Exactly 50 years today, on October 5, 1962, British secret service agent 007 first appeared on the big screen in the James Bond movie Dr. No. It premiered in London that day and was in general release the following day.

    Incredibly, it was not until May 8, 1963 that Dr. No, starring Scottish actor Sean Connery as007, appeared in the United States.

    Based on Ian Fleming's novels, the series is one of the longest-running in history, having made $4.9 billion in ticket sales over 22 films. The 23rd Bond movie is set to premiere October 23 in London and November 8 in North America.

    Shaken but not stirred, 007 has appeared in various guises in several cartoons.

    The TerryToons theatrical series James Hound began in February 1966 with "Dr. Ha-Ha," directed and animated by Ralph Bakshi. In the series, James (voiced by the late Dayton Allen) is a secret agent who is incredibly clumsy. Yet, no matter how many mistakes he makes in his efforts to capture the bad guy, he winds up bagging the criminal.

    In 1991, Fred Wolf Films released the syndicated series James Bond, Jr. The 17-year-old nephew of the famous British spy, James Jr. (voiced by Corey Burton) likes his milkshakes shaken, not stirred. This young Bond, with some assistance from his friends, would use his wits, mind, and high-tech gadgetry to disarm and destroy various villains, criminals, and not-so-nice guys. Most of whom were somehow associated with S.C.U.M. (Saboteurs and Criminals United in Mayhem), a ruthless criminal organization.

    Ronald D. Moore and Patrick Pinney both voiced James Bond in the 2008 Robot Chicken episodes "I'm Trapped" and "Help Me." Chris Cox voiced him in the 2012 Mad episode "This Means War Machine"/"iCharlie."

    Branden Waugh played him in "Race Rabbit," a 1998 episode of Kablam!. Dan Castellaneta voiced Bond (as "Bont") in the 1996 The Simpsons episode "You Only Move Twice."

    The first James Bond, Sean Connery, starred as Tack the Cobbler in the long-delayed 1995 animated movie The Thief and the Cobbler.

    Roger Moore voiced January Q. Irontail in the 2005 computer-animated film Here Comes Peter Cottontail: The Movie.

    George Lazenby portrayed Bond in 1969's On Her Majesty's Secret Service and did such a bad job that he was never invited to do another 007 film. However, he portrayed King in the Batman Beyond episodes "Dead Man's Hand," "Once Burned" and "King's Ransom."

    Timothy Dalton was Mr. Pricklepants in Pixar's Toy Story 3 (2010), as well as the 2011 shorts Hawaiian Vacation and Small Fry. He voiced Sparrowhawk and Ged in the 2006 anime film Tales From Earthsea.

    Composer John Barry's "Bond Theme" was in the soundtrack of a 2003 episode of TalkBack Productions' BBC3 series Monkey Dust.


    James Bond (played by Sean Connery): "I admire your courage, Miss...?"
    Sylvia Trench (played by Eunice Gayson): "Trench. Sylvia Trench. I admire your luck, Mr...?"
    James Bond: "Bond. James Bond."

    -- Dr. No (1962)
