All good things must come to an end. It would seem the same is true of junk.
We go out with a bang though! 'Cause it doesn't get weirder than Strawinsky, whose full name I refuse to type.

Sherlock Gnomes
Better late than never I always say. See? 'Cause both our episode was late, and the movie got a pushed back release date! Didn't notice? Doesn't matter.
Elton John has helped make another animated movie about gnomes! This time it's a mystery! (I'm just assuming the first one was a love story; didn't see it) And just like any good mystery, this one comes with a twist! A twist about farts!
Can we stop now?
We review Sherlock Gnomes.

Chicken Little
Didya Know?! Eugene Levy and Fred Willard are different people! They were both in 'Best in Show' with Catherine O'Hara though.
Oh, I'm sorry. Was there a movie going on here?

Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland
Our Omni Mic audio adventure continues. I guess the theme month this time is movies that have incidental Brad Bird involvement. Who woulda guessed?

Animalympics
After years of waiting, it's finally thematically appropriate to review Animalympics. Even though this is probably the third Olympics that has come around since the podcast started.
Word to the wise: Don't take history lessons from animators. Or, for that matter, sports advice. Don't even ever listen to us, for God's sake.
We Review Animalympics.

Planes: Fire and Rescue (Broken Audio Apology)
Sorry Guys! Seth's computer did something weird and now our audio sounds like we recorded it on a Sega Genesis. We aren't gonna subject you to two hours of that though, so this is just an apology file.
We are gonna try and repair the audio, but as you can hear in this episode, it's pretty ear shattering, and there may be nothing we can do. That's just how it is sometimes, but we're sorry.
You'll be happy to know that Seth's been fired though.
We swear we reviewed Planes Fire & Rescue

Happily N'Ever After 2: Snow White - Another Bite @ the Apple
Gotta be the longest, most convoluted movie title we've had so far. Which is fitting cause this episode is all over the place.
The only good news is we didn't have to watch the first one.

What's Up Balloon to the Rescue
What a way to start the new year. I guess there's nowhere to go ... but UP!
This episode ends up discussing sensitive topics like Bill Cosby and other sexual assault allegations. Just a fair warning if you don't want to have to deal with that. The episode isn't good enough to try if you don't want to hear about it.
Also we acknowledge that no one has been criminally convicted, the charges discussed are alleged and we are merely stating our individual opinions.
Now doesn't this all sound fun?

Gummibär The Yummy Gummy Search for Santa
We're almost out of the woods this Christmas and the final obstacle is Gummibär (Gummy Bear, but with an umlaut, get it?) The Yummy Gummy Search for Santa.
The box is full of false claims, but at least it's upfront about its hideous star and the fact that aliens appear in this 'film'.

The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus
The endless Christmas begins again on the Cartoon Lampoon Podcast. The 8th or 9th or 10th Christmas we've celebrated in the 4 years we've been doing it. Gotta be close to the 5th Rankin/Bass movie we've done, maybe the 4th Santa Origin Story.
Can you believe we haven't even made a dent in Animated Christmas Specials yet?!

Doogal
This has gotta be the worst thing that Harvey Weinstein's ever done right? Without checking the news of the past couple months or paying attention to anything any female celebrity has ever said, or just looking at Harvey Weinstein, I'm going to assume this is the worst thing he's ever done.
Let me just Google him to make sure I'm spelling his name right.
...
Oh.
Well, I'll just check on Louis C.K. while I've got Google open.
...
Oh.
This is gonna take a while.

Delgo aka Ferngully 4
The lowest grossing computer animated film of all time finally makes it to the Cartoon Lampoon Podcast.
If only it was notable in any other conceivable way.
What a mess.

Scooby-Doo! Shaggy's Showdown/ Season Finale
We take a nice easy stroll through one of the newest Scooby-Doo! movies to end our 3rd Season and do an end of season recap of some of the best and worst movies of the year.
We also chit-chat about a few other Halloween specials you can look forward to/dread this year, and also a surprising amount of Star Trek talk.

Where the Dead Go to Die
This movie is tactless and easily the worst thing we've ever seen. I know we say that a lot but this time we mean it. We didn't even get halfway through it before just skipping to the end credits.
So to make up for the lack of movie discussion we have an animation career discussion about 47 minutes in to the episode. So skip to that if you don't want to hear about this Horror monstrosity.
Also I threw the DVD out. the end.
Happy Halloween Month

The Thief and the Cobbler
That's the image Wikipedia has as the main movie poster image. Its oddly cropped, it has a banner only on the top, and then an overly detailed background image that is bottom left justified for some reason.
Then Richard Williams picked one of his forty titles for the film, slapped it on there, put the Tiny Toon Adventures Logo in it, and left the rest a black void.
All it all its strange, jumbled, admittedly pretty in places, too busy at points, too spare in others, and honestly? Probably not finished.
In short its the most apt movie poster I've ever seen considering the movie its trying to sell.
We review Richard Williams, and somewhere in the cross hairs we manage to discuss The Thief and the Cobbler (and its many versions)
Apropos of nothing, here's a link to Double King if you haven't seen it.

Puss in Boots (1999)
I'm just gonna let you all know now, this episode should really be called 'Basics of Animation' and 'History of Flash' because we talk about that a Hell of a lot more than we talk about the movie itself.
One of the worst things we've seen on the show if not truly the very bottom of what animation as an art form has to offer.
Hats off to Phil Nibbelink though, he's a talented animator who has had a hand in making some of our favorite movies throughout the 80s and 90s.
This, however, was, to put it nicely, outside of his wheelhouse. Every single one of his wheelhouses in fact.

Titanic: The Legend Goes On
Welp. It's Party Time.
I'm not sure anything more than that needs to be said about this infamously bad, tone-deaf animated flop. Which, if nothing else, serves to remind us which side of WW2 Italy was on.

The Emoji Movie (We're Sorry)
This episode is alternatively titled " 2 Hours of Crosstalk"
Spoilers for the episode: We hated this.
This was not fun. Talking about it was almost fun. Seeing it was maybe the least fun there ever was.

The Treasure Planet
Don't let that image fool you. This film is something else.
A nightmarish Hellscape to be specific; from the far off land of Bulgaria made in 1982. Which is JUST in time to create doubts about where Disney got their idea for a space themed Treasure Island. But which one comes out on top? Who's to say?
We are!

The Flight Before Christmas
This movie is 90 percent less Christmasy than that image would have you believe. There is no Santa Helpers, only half a minute of Santa, no candy canes, no Christmas lights, no gingerbread cottage. There's plenty of gross CGI animation though.
