This seemed pretty successful last time, so here it is again.

More cartoons that are special in their own odd ways that have inspired me in some form or fashion and that I think more people need to see, since alot of these are from other countries.
It's the opinion of the entire staff that Dexter is criminally insane sane sane sane

First thing is this:
Atom Ant - We Must All Get Ready Now
Back in the 90's on Cartoon Network (when the channel was alot weirder) they had these things called "Groovies" which were all music videos done in various media and art styles tailored around certain cartoon shows. Alot of them were done by studio Primal Screen. Not all of them were though, so I'm not entirely sure of the particular origins of this Groovy. One thing alot of the Groovies shared in common was mixed media. Lots of animation spliced with live action, stop motion, and pixilation.
There's a fairly high chance you've seen this at least once if you're a tv watcher.

Next is a short music video for Tuesday Weld's song "Bathtime in Clerkinwell"
There's actually, for reasons unknown to myself, two different versions of this song with the same video floating about the internet. Honestly, I like this particular version. Although the video is alot dirtier and less clean. The animation was done by Alex of www.figlimigliproductions.com who likes to use silhouettes alot in his work.

The Annecy Fim Festival is one of the biggest film festivals for animation around. And every year some studio makes some sort of great intro for the show. These are my two particular favorites
Being but intros, they are extremely short:

The Mirror

.

Le Gouter (The Taste / The Snack)

Next is Le Building. A short very silly cartoon (with brief horrible nudity NSFW) from the Gobelins school in France. Pretty much everything released from Gobelins is great. The place must be magical or something.
You can watch a nice sharper quicktime version of Le Building on the official site. I love this film because it's funny, it's musical, it's well animated, and it uses quite a few different techniques.

At a Glance is a neat little video made by a couple who are Sculptors as well. Isn't that neat?
Some very wiggy visuals and color scheme of black white red and turquoise.

.
/* */
Malice in Wonderland. Made by an animation teacher.
Definitely in the top 10 of most "What the Fuck" short films of animation.
NOT SAFE FOR WORK. Lots of penises, vaginas, blood, and other severely deranged nonsense that cant be described with the words currently available to the human tongue.
It's also REALLY LOUD

Next is one of the few music videos for Aphex Twin not done by Chris Cunningham. Actually, I am not 100% sure who made this. The song in this video has about four different names it goes by. It's a dark grungy little video of what seems to be a music playing robot tearing itself off of it's legs/chair/butt.
I can't embed it so here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEbewiN Y3M4

This next music video has it all. Vikings. Guitar battles. Giant mech suits.
Animated by Joel Trussel who's made a few very imaginative music videos, all done in a very limited animation style.

Chris Cunningham is one of my favorite directors of videos. His videos are all insane, disturbing, and usually contain special effects that look frighteningly real. He and his team really know how to make a CG effect or creature NOT look like its CG. Same goes with any puppetry or models used. Most know him for his music videos for Aphex Twin and Bjork, but he's done other things including this, which is one of his first films, and how it managed to get on youtube mystifies me, but here it is anyway. Thanks to Halcion for finding this gem.
The EEL
Make sure to maximize this one. You definitely want it to take up your whole PC screen. Turn off all the lights, too.

He also made this neat advertisement for the PSP a while ago. For some reason, Sony didnt like it. I dont see why. Its a hell of alot better than their other ads.

This is the trailer for Mindgame. It came out a few years ago.
Chances are you havent seen the whole film because each time it gets leaked online it gets quickly yanked off. And there is still not an official english dub or subtitled version. Just ones done by fans. Which is a shame as it's a hilarious and great animated film by Studio 4C (cat soup, animatrix, gotham knight, Genius Party).

The animation director behind mindgame is Koji Morimoto who has been a part of some of the best animated films from Japan. And usually the more abstract ones. He's helped bring Akira, Macross and Fist of the North Star to life. And is one of the most important Directors at Studio 4c.

Way back in 1997 he made a very very bizarre short cartoon called Noiseman Sound Insect. It's contains a character from a previous short he made called "Franken's Gears" about the mad Doctor Franken who seems to be both a genius and imbecile at the same time.

Noiseman is odd because even from a storytelling standpoint it's very hard to follow.
You eventually "get it" but at first you're pretty confused. Basically Franken has found a way to get "noise" from "noise seeds" which he gives to his robot. He accidentally seperates his own noise from his body. His noise becomes a crystal and his body becomes a little gelatinous sperm ghost critter. His robot goes crazy and becomes NOISEMAN (a bloated robot with a really loud voice) and decides to turn everyone's noise into crystals because it likes the sound the crystals make.
Thats about as clear as I can make it.
Anyway.

It used to be online in an english dub on Veoh. Youtube has it with spanish subtitles. I tried putting it on youtube in english but apparently a 15 minute short cartoon is too 'long' for the precious servers of Youtube.

So I searched and searched and searched and found it on a weird site called Crunchyroll. (sushi reference I assume).
Noiseman Sound Insect. This is the link. You must click to watch it. It is 15 minutes long, so it's longer than the other things I posted today.
and here's a screenshot from the film:
