Episode 234 – Oh, I Know What Furries Are

Posted on October 13, 2011

This Week: Kevin celebrates the mid-month of Halloween by inviting newly-appointed FSR Editor-at-Large and resident horror movie fan Robert Fure into the Magical Studio in the Sky. There, they kick off their Sunday shoes and cut Footloose before making non-educated guesses about The Big Year. Then, Fure gives us the low-down on the new horror flick The Thing, after which Kevin takes a look at Lucky McKee’s The Woman and the new gross-out flick Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence). During the relatively clean middle segment, we get a Fat Guy Five about snowy films before rattling off some DVD recommendations. But Fure doesn’t disappoint his raunchy fan base because he looks up some great names for potential web sites.

Producer Don Hahn Talks ‘The Lion King’

Posted on October 13, 2011

Don Hahn, producer for The Lion King, answered some questions about the making-of the film, available on 3D Blu-ray, DVD and Blu-ray on October 4.

——————————————————————————–

Q: What’s the main difference between a classical animation movie (The Lion King) and something like Frankenweenie?

Don Hahn: All animation techniques are about bringing inanimate objects to life to tell a story. The main difference between The Lion King and Frankenweenie is that The Lion King is a hand drawn movie, 24 drawings per second. A stop motion puppet film like Frankenweenie is done with articulated puppets that are moved by an animator 24 times a second. They are both great techniques!
