I would encourage anyone with the time to please watch the Sally Cruikshank films, Quasi at the Quackadero and Make Me Psychic. They're something like Fleischers done in the seventies, with music by R. Crumb's backing band and mostly animated (over a period of years) by Cruikshank alone. Particularly with the former, there's something richly nostalgic going on amidst all the weird cartoon geekery in the carnivalesque encounters with possible pasts and futures, huckster'd or otherwise. Make Me Psychic increases the pace does better in terms of sheer goofy cartooniness without going into hyperdrive like the remarkable but sort of opaque Face Like a Frog (1987).

There's no way I'll have time to vote after tonight, so I've thrown together a rushed, conventional ballot. Everybody vote!
― Biff Wellington (WmC), Monday, 25 June 2012 00:25 (eleven years ago) link
Got my shortlist down to 60. I suspect that Chuck Jones is going to suffer from vote splitting.

Due to work hilarity I'm off tomorrow - accepting any recommendations for non MM / LT stuff to watch.
Also a reminder that you should all watch The Wrong Trousers if you have a spare 30 minutes and would like to vote for the winner.

― mister would you please herp my brony (Pillbox), Thursday, 28 June 2012 21:58 (eleven years ago) link
Do what you feel; I am gonna be super preoccupied this weekend so results could well be delayed till the middle of next week. Don't agonize about the deadline.
― "Holy crap," I mutter, as he gently taps my area (silby), Thursday, 28 June 2012 22:00 (eleven years ago) link

Ballot questions:
1. How rigid is the format of a single line? Is the minimum info that we need simply the ID number?
2. What if we want to vote for something not on the nom list? Just put the title and any additional identifying info (e.g. year, director)?
― Moves Like Zappa (Leee), Saturday, 30 June 2012 17:22 (eleven years ago) link
2a. Because I don't see Titan AE anywhere on the list.
― Moves Like Zappa (Leee), Saturday, 30 June 2012 17:38 (eleven years ago) link

can someone, like, post whatever the new voting deadline is and change the thread title? you might get a lot more ballots if people know they can still send them and how much time they have to get them together.
