"Some of the cartoons were removed on April 16. A message saying the cartoons were no longer available because of a copyright claim by Warner appeared in their place. By evening the messages disappeared, and some of the cartoons were back. Representatives for YouTube and Warner would not confirm whether the companies had tried to remove the cartoons..."

Thus far, "Charlie the Unicorn" movies have followed a twisted take on the "Monomyth," also known as the "Hero's Journey." The Hero's Journey consists of 5 major parts, and all (or variants) are found in both this and the first Charlie video. I shall analyze and demonstrate the formulaic nature of both these videos in the paradigm of the Hero's Journey.

Friends, sifters, netizens -- lend me your ears.

The time has come for all good parties to aid in the promotion and publication of a fine and wonderful video -- a video which has failed not once but THREE TIMES to appear in the annals of siftdom.

It is a somewhat slower-paced and longer short film than much of the usual fare here, and yet I assure you that it is well worth spending some time to slow down and appreciate.

This short film won an Academy award, beating out such greats as Lifted, which currently stands at 80 votes here; and A Gentleman's Duel, which has 157 votes.

So I beseech you: relax, have a cup of tea, and enjoy The Danish Poet, the fruit of some of Denmark and Canada's finest talent.

Thank you.

Hi,

I've already bugged Dag about this and he advised me to ask again here.

I'm looking for a video I've watched about half a year ago. It's a black-and-white cartoon. Simple drawing style. Actually, it's various episodes of this cartoon clipped one after the other in one video.

The cartoons are about a scummy, bald, agressive, swearing male American who is coping with everyday life (like a neighbour who comes over, or his kid who breaks a lamp inside the house). The guy either mumbles NSFW stuff, yells or doesn't say anything. In the lamp episode, after thinking for almost 2 minutes he touches a (broken?) wire and gets electrified.

Can anybody help me out?

Thanks,
ago

It was the one where a couple of ground squirrels go to a canning factory to get their vegetables back. I'm just looking for the name, more than anything.

Well everyone, it's almost half way through the month and I wanted to remind you all that this month's contest is a go.

A few quick comments, the winner of the highest totaling post for the month will be given a save and promote from me. All new posts, including saved ones will count, however a promoted post or renewed dead post does not qualify. Just as well the winner of the highest rank, i.e. the most votes for the month total will also win a save and promote for a video of their choice!

I have just updated the color and CSS scheme with the help of MLX for the site! All feedback is welcome!
