Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

Beautiful job, guys, and it makes me think Calvin & Hobbes needs to come back in a new medium. What surprised me was that it wasn't CG animation. Shows you where my head's at these days of everything except Aardman being CG.

Thanks!

Awesome! I found this on The Daily What and clicked a link to get the scoop on how it was made and it took me here. Best surprise ever. You guys rock.

Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

It was so awesome to find out that these were actual models, not CGI. Great job!

Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

The real question is, will this bring any influx to the Down In Front community and listeners to the actual movie commentary podcast itself (or the intermission?)

The cynical side of me says no, because wonderful as this C&H thing is, it's too tangential to the core thing being done at Down In Front to have fans coming in based of that becoming fans of the show.

Now, new visitors, go ahead and prove me wrong. Down In Front is a fantastic podcast if you are even a little bit into movies.

Iconic in simplicity while capturing the full blunt force of Calvin & Hobbs.......

Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

It's an awesome video. I just saw a link to it in another forum I frequent

EDIT: It is getting lots of kudos in that forum too.

Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

I've got to be honest... I'd heard of, but had no idea about Calvin & Hobbes.. But this short really blew me away. It is just perfect.

I'd love to see more done in different settings... desert island beach... the floor of a kiddies bedroom made up of lego or messed up toys... the surface of the moon.

Just a real fun concept.

Re: A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas

Red, Jimmy, Drew, Gareth - Thanks!

Dean - We were crossing our fingers that it could stand alone and still appeal to some non-C&H fans. So it's great to read that. But since you dug it, you should probably check out some of the strips. Stuff is hilarious.

Harbin - After the failure of A Very Calvin and Hobbes Boxing Day, we're on a C&H hiatus.
