Cartoons 101



John K. cracks me up. The man is sort of a genius when it comes to cartoons, and absolutely WILL NOT compromise for anyone. He had this kick ass cartoon that Cartoon Network wanted a ways back, but would not change the name from Weekend Pussy Hunt(about a cat) so they didn't pick it up. You should look at his blog. If the man isn't breaking down his own classic Ren and Stimpy episodes and talking about how perfect they are, he is yapping about how Yogi Bear beats the shit out of anything Pixar ever even had a nightmare about. Sometimes its refreshing to see someone that is so hateful towards the current state of things but unaware that he is completely irrelevant at this point.

John K is/was legendary to any kid growing up in the Camel generation (the bloody swathe of kids who when tested for brand identity put Camel in the top 3 with Disney and McDonalds, ie. us). He was simultaneously gross and hilarious, sorta like Garbagepail Kids and Early Phil Jackson movies. Plus, I completely agree with him about Yogi which was one of my favorites. The only thing that comes close is Wall-e and that is mostly because of its stance on space fatties.

I check his blog a couple times a year. He breaks down this old Bugs Bunny cartoon I loved with Dracula in it, and just nails the whole thing down. History will shine brightly on John.
