And here's one more Ed Love animation and my favourite scene of his where the cat is saying stuff but gets muted and censored. Cartoon: "The Early Bird Dood It!" (1942, Tex Avery)

LRP the faux french anime indie pilot I've seen seeing as of that

The 2000s are the new 80s in how people make surface level nostalgia garbage based on it despite never living in it

The Adventures of Prince Achmed just turned one hundred years old. It's still among the best movies ever made. For the film's birthday, we're sharing Lotte Reiniger's wonderful firsthand account of its creation: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/a-film-tha...

I made a quick blog for this! (Also yeah I have one now!) Link: spongybrainstuff.blogspot.com/2026/05/happ...

It's my namesake's anniversary!

Betty Boop cartoons had some surreal animation.

Wanted to see if Procreate Dreams was more wieldy than the last time I touched it upon release (and it is, yay!) Been awhile since I've consciously done frame-by-frame animation rather than just keyframes, but nice to hop back on the saddle!

This is probably the last musical bicycle pump number to appear in any cinema in nearly 100 years. So much for progress. Billy Edison and Charlie Gregory in the Vitaphone short, Two College Nuts (1929)

new bubsy game is already announced boys and girls: it's a doozy

Yesterday I discovered “The Nutty Squirrels”, a pretty shameless Chipmunks rip-off slash.. rival..? They beat the Chipmunks to TV and I guess that was a big source of pride. They also appear to be beatniks in protest of the Chipmunks’ pop… and I’m enamored. What a fascinating peeing match to have

Adding onto this, it's amazing to remember that these shorts were meant to be shown in front of a movie and then never seen again. It speaks to the passion for the art form these great animators had that they packed so much love and skill into what could've been disposable.
