Yep.
Yep yep.
Time for another one of these.
I am trying to decide if I want to keep these around 9-12 videos each time. I could easily go longer or shorter, but the longer they are the more the site lags and the shorter they are, the less cool crap I can show you guyz.
Anyway, PART 4 OF COOL STUFF
London is under siege:

Michel Gagne has been working on a game version of his only-seen-on-nicktoons-network-during-
halloween series, Insanely Twisted Shadow Puppet Show. When this game will be out, who can say. The updates to his site are sporadic at best.
But you can see a nice teaser here. Yes, the show looked exactly like this. And yes, its Flash.

Medical Island is a korean flash animated cartoon show that I found right after I made "The Morgue"
It reminded me alot of the Morgue and I loved the simplisticly creepy iconic designs all the characters had. It was made by Studio Animal who have pulled alot of the Medical Island stuff off their site when they signed up with Zango (some bothersome flashplayer wannabe thing). Luckily most of it ended up on youtube. They are all very short. Roughly 2 minutes long.

Quite a good handful of these were released and then they stopped.

Dollface by http://www.andrewthomashuang.com THAT GUY
A crazy 3d animated short. Very freaky.

The Dover Boys of Pimeno University.
Probably one of the best cartoons ever made by the late Chuck Jones
DRAT THOSE DOVER BOYS. THEY DRIVE ME TO DRINK!

Sweet Smoke by Mr.Scruff
Scruff is a UK electronic musician. He has a site full of these cure little oval characters.
Here is a music video by him

Basin Street Blues is a tune remixed by Kid Koala, who has made all sorts of stuff. He was in town actually the other night at the Crow Bar. I wanted to go see his live show but couldn't. Now he's in Canada. BAH!
Anyway, he is related to Monkmus who is a great flash and traditional animator. I've always liked this film by them:

Efterklang Mirador
BigArmyBug (now just Bug) linked me to this one day and said "I bet you'll like this"
He was fuckin right. >:C

Dont you hate it when you land on a planet in outer space and its got hot fairy chicks who party with you and then it turns out they're actually flesh eating robots?
.
/* */
An Eye For Annai
Everyone hates the music in this. I think its cute.
I showed this to my friend Mike and he proceeded to narrate everything on the screen in a weird voice. That has nothing to do with the cartoons, which is very sweet and has a childrens book feel to it.

Mad Rhetoric
You gotta love old-school Toonami. Back when it was run by adult swim people and Tom didnt look like a lego man.
.

And finally this spasticly entertaining music video david firth made a long ass time ago:

And that's it for this week. Tune in next week where my guests will be Wonder Woman, and a giant talking clitoris.

Actually let me add one more film.
The Film "Robotno is visited by Aunt Flo" is a film made in 1957. It is the only animated film to have been worked on by Tex Avery, Bob Clampett, Grim Natwick and Walt Disney himself. They started working on the film in 1948, but an animators Strike made it slow moving. The 4 animators had to work on the film all by themselves.
When it was finally released "Robotno is visited by Aunt Flo" won 4 Academy Awards, the only film to do so. When Walt died he actually requested a drawing of Robotno to be chiseled on his gravestone instead of Mickey Mouse. That was the kind of bond they shared.
