    I like it - suck it hatas.


    Sure it's mainstream, but that doesn't automatically render things worthless. And if you think so, unqualified, across the board, it kinda renders your opinion worthless, no?


    P.S. I totes preferred the most recent Jonas Brothers video.

    Oh yeah, and there was a series of commercials for Earthlink that LOOKED like Sabiston, but weren't. So I am really surprised that he did the Schwab ones--I thought they were another rip-off.

    @Carol Gardens: Sorry, this was a response to the Bob Sabiston comments but I hit the wrong button!

    This may be rotoscoping, but it pales in comparison to the the work done on Waking Life or even the Charles Schwab commercials. This looks flat compared to the gradations of color provided by more painstaking work. For instance:


    We owe MIT grad Bob Sabiston MUCH for improvements on this process that was originally invented by the Fleischer Brothers many decades ago.

    @PaisleyPajamas: Sabiston did a series of spot for MTV in the late 90s. He even pitched a show there but they turned it down (worked out for him in the long run). Then he left town and ended up making "Waking Life". Very cool guy.

    @Carol Gardens: Agreed! He is cool. Very unassuming and doesn't "play the playa" in Austin like a lot of filmmakers with fewer credentials than he has do.


    I really can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

    Yes, terrific animation with hypnotic cigarette smoke, but I have no patience for relationship angst of any form (except 18th-century lit and Wong Kar Wai films).

    Never in my life did I think I'd see Coonskin referenced on a major website, even Gawker.


    Well played.

    Coonskin, from Albert Ruddy, producer of The Godfather...


    Way to bank the strong follow-up, Al.


    And I must officially be a grumpy old man now, because every pop song I hear seems to have that same electro-vibrato effect on the vocals, sounding identically unbearable and cheese-dripped corny.


    And I'm up early on Sunday, commenting.


    Take me to the nursing home. Please.
