This movie was pretty amazing. Hard to believe it wasn’t in theaters. Lots of great character chemistry, action sequences and nods to the TMNT’s past.

A Bug’s Life 20th
“For the for the colony and oppressed ants everywhere!!”
After 20 years, A Bug’s Life still remains to be my # 1 favorite Pixar movie. A small dweeby ant who unknowingly recruits a troop of sub par circus performers to fight off a suppressive biker gang of grasshoppers, and succeeds through teamwork, ingenuity, and inspiring bravery is the perfect formula for a terrific story.
RIP Stephen Hillenburg
It was my first time going to Nickelodeon for an actual job. I was freelancing as a storyboarder on an episode of SpongeBob. As I waited in the lobby, Stephen Hillenburg walked by with some other guys. ‘Hey! I’m here to work on his show! What a coincidence!’ , I thought. To say Stephen was talented, funny and creative isn’t remotely enough. He re-invented the wheel and shocked new life into animated comedy through both Rocko’s Modern Life and of course SpongeBob! So much of his career is what got me interested in storyboarding. Later I was told that my storyboard test was well received by the rest of the story crew. I’m sure Stephen never laid eyes on it, being the busy guy he was, but to this day I’ve always secretly hoped he did. After all, I was at the studio because of his influential work. RIP Mr. Hillenburg.

Carroll Spinney 50th
Carroll Spinney wraps up 50 years as the preformer for Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, and others from Sesame Street. As far back as I can remember, “Follow That Bird”, the first Sesame Street movie, was also possiblity literally the first movie I ever saw. Heck, I feel like I saw it before I ever watched an episode of Sesame Street! So, needless to say, Big Bird is one of my many earliest memories. Happy retirement Mr. Spinney!
Follow That Bird (1985)
Alvin and the Chipmunks
🎶Alvin! Simon! Theodore!
Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!🎶
Watched the heck out of this show in the 80s as a kid and still a fan of Chipmunk Adventure movie from 87. The Alvin Show from the 60s had its moments too! Drawing this trio was long overdue.
