AMC Seals Deal for 'Preacher' TV Series
Feb,06,2014
by:+Staff
The AMC basic cable network, which has scored a huge hit with its adaptation of the comic book-based The Walking Dead, has announced that it has sealed the deal for another comic book-based live-action TV series—one that will be based on Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon’s controversial (and highly entertaining) Preacher comic book series published by DC’s Vertigo imprint. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the edgy writing team behind Superbad, Pineapple Express, and last summer’s This Is the End. Perhaps even better news for Preacher fans is the fact that AMC has hired Sam Catlin, who was the showrunner for the award-winning Breaking Bad, to executive produce and function as the showrunner for Preacher.

Tales from the Toon Trenches Joe Barbera’s Snow Job
Jan,31,2014
by:+Michael Mallory
As regular readers of this blog know, whenever I’m at a loss for a story idea, I turn back to the book of Joe … Barbera, that is. I knew Joe for the last several years of his life and would often go up to his office and have lunch with him, or just sit and talk. No matter where we were, though, I was an audience for his stories, which flew out of him like confetti out of a cannon. His stories of his early days in animation, prior to teaming up with Bill Hanna at MGM, were of particular interest. One involved the Van Beuren Studios in New York, where Joe had applied to get out of working in a bank. “I strolled in, very cool, and they took a look at the magazine [cartoons he had drawn], and hired me … for three bucks less than I was getting at the bank,” he told me in 1998, adding:

Tales from the Toon Trenches A Century of Dinos
Jan,16,2014
by+Michael Mallory
What is it about dinosaurs and animation?
One could argue that animation is the perfect method of bringing them to life onscreen, which is why the love affair between animators and the long-extinct creatures of wonder has gone on now for a century.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of Gertie the Dinosaur, a 12-minute short created by newspaper cartoonist Winsor McCay. Gertie and Winsor took their act on the road, appearing in Vaudeville venues, and amazing audiences with their interaction. Some years later, effects animators Willis O’Brien and his protégé Ray Harryhausen created state-of-the-art stop-motion dinosaurs for live action films, work that not only thrilled moviegoers, but even inspired scientists. Back in 2002, Ray Harryhausen remarked to me, “Our pictures have affected the audience in a very positive way, which, if I may say so, is more than you can say about some films today.” He elaborated:
