If only they could make movies like this again that would be such a comeback! Unlike all of this other crap that's playing in theaters with a few exceptions.
Anyone remember a cartoon about a "greaser" kid (think young Andrew Dice Clay type) who gets kick out of his house and gets into adventures on the street? I think it was set in New York.This was back in the eary 80's and I must have been about 9 years old when I saw the trailer for it, but they only showed it late at night on HBO or Show Time I think.
@OhGodNo666 oh yea man. iv seen making of and its a crapload of work. i mean u have to program the characters to do the movements and also make sure that nothing goes awry on their 'track'. crazy stuff man haha. either way all animation is pretty awesome haha
It's actually an original recording of "Scarborough Fair" which is an age old minstrel song. (Though though the one you're hearing is heavily inspired by the Simon and Garfunkel version it seems) . Kinda like 'Greensleeves'.
I literally had to buy the CD (It was only a buck at the CD store I found it at) JUST to nab this track, since the torrent of the soundtrack has virtually no seeders..
@SuperKawaiiPandaGirl As good as Fritz. True story: I managed to snag a copy in (of all places) the Dollar Store, where it was mixed in with the kiddy cartoons! XD
@moxie96 Thank you. More like, dumb packager at wherever they get their videos from. They also had a bunch of 70's blaxploitation films in as well..not in with the cartoons, though!
@BlackCatAlley The schmuck wanted to go out with me and I said "no" and the perra hacks into my youtube account!!! I have a right to be angry!!!!! One day that wannabe will get his!!!!!
ATTENTION FightsRightsAlways and OhGodNo666 it was me who hacked into SongsJerome's account, I was supposed to watch his house while he went out for a few days and I wanted to go on youtube and I saw that someone was making fun of my favorite films. So not trying to look stupid I used SongsJerome's name to start a fight with the users. So SongsJerome, I heard you wanted to press charges, please don't. I'm sorry.
This is a warning not a threat. Whoever you are, stop using my account and getting me in trouble! The next time anyone has contact me to say I have started trouble you will answer to the FBI.
@OhGodNo666 Excuse me I would like to apologize, but someone has hacked into my account and started trouble with other users. It must have been my neighbor. I am really sorry sir for the trouble. I will change my password and try to keep this account personalized. I have no clue who has done this.
@OhGodNo666 Just wait you nerdy bitch. I'm gonna getcha one day. Oh yeah, back home in Chicago we box, so no weapons, no anime bullshit, and no video game shit. Just boxing.
@OhGodNo666 I bet you're white. A nerdy rich white boy who is has no future but to stay in his mother's basement playing World of Warcraft. Yeah, that's what you are! You are a little spoiled nerdy white boy. An ignorant little skinhead who needs to get his ass kicked. If I see you in the streets, I'm gonna kick you fucking ass.
fuck avatar im not going to try and be intellectual about it I dont care if looked even more amazing than life itself I knew the story before I even heard it,I basically told my friend the story and he was just laughing because he said I pretty much saw it cg took a step backwards instead of the opposite tell me how is it possible the best CG ever came from a movie in 93 called Jurrasic Park more than ten years ago haha
@FightsRightsAlways Fuck you, you anime loving nerd. Ralph Bakshi makes good and perfect films. If you can come up with a better film then awsome, until then; SHUT THE FUCK UP and get your ass kicked!
@SongsJerome haha.okay so what seems to be the problem here?i said a movie to ME looks dumb as hell and your throw a bitch fit and start to cry over that?!?.wow you are 19 and my opinion got this that disrespectful comment?.dude that's the reaction i would expect from someone when i say something to really deserve it.but to me yes this movie looks dumb.see you are one of those people who take things too far.i mean really grow up that little stunt does not scare me.it only makes you look STUPID!
@SongsJerome oh brother i can see growing up is going to be a HUGE challenge for you.things you need to work on1-i can say i hate this movie because i CAN that's what the all comments are for-to say what you want GOODorBAD.2-i don't get where i was talking this so called SHIT from but that just shows me you had nothing ELSE to say so you made some stuff up causes everything i say CAN be backed up.and 3cussing me out and acting like your 12 isn't cute.please GROW UP you would be doing me a favor
@FightsRightsAlways I am terribly sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about. But, I know one thing someone has hacked into my account and has started arguments with other users while I was away. Maybe it was my neighbor. I apologize for this. I will make a public video explaining what has happened and I will change my password for my account. I apologize for the inconvenience. The trouble maker or who ever will be delt with.
Loved this film since 97 when i was 16 since i always enjoyed adult animation since the 80's when i watched Starchaser, Warriors of the Wind (The US butcher of Nausicaa), Fire and Ice, Wizards and Twice Upon a Time. In 93 i watched Rock and Rule, Heavy Metal, Vampire Hunter D, American Pop and Hey Good Looking with Robot Carnival on TBS and Cinemax, loved them. I've even saw Beavis and Butt-Head the movie, South Park movie, Antz, and Mononoke in theaters.
CGI isn't always there, there's plenty of 2D, Flash, Clay Animation and Stop Motion around. We do have Princess and The Frog and Hayao Miyazaki/Ghibli animation to Secret of Kellis and DC/Marvel animation for 2D. Coraline and Fantastic Mr. Fox are awesome Stop Motion animation.
this is the kind of shit that people thought had artistic merit because it was animation set to "real people" talking. its just a 42 street picture novel FULL of stereotypes and cheap humor with no pathos or dimension to the characters or story. its the same type of anime shit that people think is "art" today. it isn't, its a step below melodrama and a few notches below a made for tv movie. i like the movie "UHF" but i don't go around thinking "why doesn't the world agree with me?"
Well anime can be good like Akira, Ghost in The Shell, Grave of the Fireflies, Ninja Scroll, Hayao Miyazaki's Ghibli movies (Princess Mononoke to Totoro to Spirited Away to now Ponyo), Fist of the North Star, Wicked City, Vampire Hunter D 1 & 2, Golgo 13 The Professional etc. to even some hentai if you know what hentai is.
Roberta, from the Cleveland Show, looks exactly like Carol. Plus, like Carol, she has a white boyfriend. I remember one episode where Roberta says that she uses her looks and brains to mainipulate men..just like Carol did. That's just one hell of a coincidence..
@ThePerrperr That depends. Did you watch the movie or just base your opinion on the trailer. If it was the later, then it IS just you.
In the '70s, when the fight for race and sexual equality was more militant, a liberated black woman would look harsh. And Carol basically said that as long as she was smart and knew how to manipulate men with her looks, she could make it without help, as then neither blacks nor women weren't getting help from anybody.
@Guessnought theres more where that came from.. those animated movies would not have existed if it wasnt for the bad economy back in the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Certain "people's" (ie; Italian & Jews) need to watch this film before they act out of prejudice to others just because they wanna rub their noses in the mud in order to please the white man. This bit of history will put them right in their place!
I agree with you, completely. The only problem is... getting them to actually SEE the movie. Most will not bother with listening to the Truth; they'd rather just leer at ONE tree rather than gazing at the whole forest in perspective.
Ugh, I can't stand Bakshi's movies Only American pop and 1960s Spiderman were any good. The rest weren't funny, sexy or have any social commentary you hadn't already heard somewhere else
American Pop is an awesome movie isn't it? up there with Grave of the Fireflies in terms of a mature and unique historical fiction movie in animation.
That's a kickass movie! you like Ralph Bakshi too? so do i. Do you think his stuff compares to Anime and Heavy Metal? same mature audiences animation.
Lord of the Rings was ok but Peter Jackson's movies are more true to the source since i'm a Tolkein fan. Since you like Fire and ice, you should watch Rock & Rule, Heavy Metal, Princess Mononoke, Beowulf, The Last Unicorn, Secret of NIMH, Flight of Dragons and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Winds for similar animated fantasy movies.
Akira rocks! loved it since i was 14 back in december 95 and my fave animated since. Seen Heavy Metal, Ghost in The Shell, Princess Mononoke, Ninja Scroll, Fire and Ice, Rock and Rule, Perfect Blue, Fist of the North Star, Golgo 13, Fritz The Cat, Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend, Wizards, Hey Good Looking, South Park the Movie, Starchaser Legend of Orin, Fantastic Planet etc.?
amazing movie made when movies were actually done with some artistic integrity and not about scooping up piles of dough. fuck the future. go backwards.
@hurtass i totally agree...this type of animation was grueling. Where as now we have computers doing all the animation. Boring. And why are there no more adult animated pics anymore? I'm sick of seeing a bunch of celebrities playing a fucking dog or a bee!!! Bring back wizards and heavy metal!
Most agree man. What about Japanese animation? they make good adult animation too such as Akira, Ninja Scroll, Ghost in The Shell, Vampire Hunter D 1 & 2, Fist of the North Star, Wicked City, Urotsukidjoi Legend of the Overfiend, Golgo 13 The Professional, Project A-Ko, Perfect Blue, Metropolis, Cowboy Bebop The Movie etc. great R-rated animated stuff.
They are! 2D is back thanks to Simpsons Movie, Waltz with Bieher or Princess and The Frog being successful. We even have Clay Animation and Stop Motion animation back and they were successful. There is hope for different animation besides CGI.
@hurtass omg jeez. Alot of shit were made back then, just as alot of quality is made now. The only reason the past looks better now is because quality lasts. We only remember the good things about the past, the tons of crap has rotted away.
@bfranklin70 Animated or live-action? There's plenty of creativity now. 70s are only seen as much better because they sweep all the shitty films under the rug and never mention them again, which is great, but people forget that that all the older decades had plenty of terrible films as much as I love older films.
I know what you mean. Nowadays, we have to see all those logos at the beginning, the demonic voice over, the over the top special effects (YOU KNOW! FOR THE KIDS!) I miss the good old days.....
Raplh Bakshi is a king of brilliant live action/animation films before Who Framed Roger Rabbit came. I wish they put those Bakshi's films on Blu-Ray soon. GREAT TRAILER!

Well Princess and The Frog and Simpsons were both critical and box-office successes.

@Johnlindsey289 dude i love fire & ice & the lord of the rings animation ( though i love the film )

@yassway30
Lord of the Rings was ok but Peter Jackson's movies are more true to the source since i'm a Tolkein fan. Since you like Fire and ice, you should watch Rock & Rule, Heavy Metal, Princess Mononoke, Beowulf, The Last Unicorn, Secret of NIMH, Flight of Dragons and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Winds for similar animated fantasy movies.

Akira rocks! loved it since i was 14 back in december 95 and my fave animated since. Seen Heavy Metal, Ghost in The Shell, Princess Mononoke, Ninja Scroll, Fire and Ice, Rock and Rule, Perfect Blue, Fist of the North Star, Golgo 13, Fritz The Cat, Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend, Wizards, Hey Good Looking, South Park the Movie, Starchaser Legend of Orin, Fantastic Planet etc.?

amazing movie made when movies were actually done with some artistic integrity and not about scooping up piles of dough. fuck the future. go backwards.

Agreed.
Hitachi007 2 years ago
@hurtass i totally agree...this type of animation was grueling. Where as now we have computers doing all the animation. Boring. And why are there no more adult animated pics anymore? I'm sick of seeing a bunch of celebrities playing a fucking dog or a bee!!! Bring back wizards and heavy metal!

Most agree man. What about Japanese animation? they make good adult animation too such as Akira, Ninja Scroll, Ghost in The Shell, Vampire Hunter D 1 & 2, Fist of the North Star, Wicked City, Urotsukidjoi Legend of the Overfiend, Golgo 13 The Professional, Project A-Ko, Perfect Blue, Metropolis, Cowboy Bebop The Movie etc. great R-rated animated stuff.

@hurtass
They are! 2D is back thanks to Simpsons Movie, Waltz with Bieher or Princess and The Frog being successful. We even have Clay Animation and Stop Motion animation back and they were successful. There is hope for different animation besides CGI.
Johnlindsey289 1 year ago
@hurtass omg jeez. Alot of shit were made back then, just as alot of quality is made now. The only reason the past looks better now is because quality lasts. We only remember the good things about the past, the tons of crap has rotted away.

@bfranklin70 Animated or live-action? There's plenty of creativity now. 70s are only seen as much better because they sweep all the shitty films under the rug and never mention them again, which is great, but people forget that that all the older decades had plenty of terrible films as much as I love older films.

I won't follow a pro that doesn't include Bakshi in his understanding of modern cinema.
ericberner 2 years ago 2
This movie was insane and made no sense at all, but Bakshi is great and it was pretty good from what I understood in it, so I give it a thumbs-up.

I wish they will return the old trailers, they were SO up-to-the-point, without the creepy low voice sounding like the devil XD
Anyways, the movie is awesome.

I know what you mean. Nowadays, we have to see all those logos at the beginning, the demonic voice over, the over the top special effects (YOU KNOW! FOR THE KIDS!) I miss the good old days.....

Raplh Bakshi is a king of brilliant live action/animation films before Who Framed Roger Rabbit came. I wish they put those Bakshi's films on Blu-Ray soon. GREAT TRAILER!
