A Special Presentation 269: The 1989 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade featuring Alf [2 of 3]

Ho ho ho, garbage for all the good little children! We've got the whole gang of pals back for another quadumvirate of questionable Quistmas specials. Mike and Ethan have holiday regulars Morbiose, Rocketshark, DMXI, Fattyatomicmutant and Glumdrop, whom we're sure you're all well familiar with by now, for such wintry delights as Nilus The Sandman: The Boy Who Dreamed Christmas, The Christmas That Almost Wasn't (with Chuck E. Cheese!), Robotech: Season's Greetings, and Transformers Animated: Human Error parts 1 and 2. We know you'll want much more than the children before!

So, technically, there was a Winnie the Pooh comic strip, so it is totally within our wheelhouse to do an episode about Winnie the Pooh (2011)! Is it more or less in line with AA Milne's vision of the chubby little bear all stuffed with fluff? Check it out!

It's Thanksgiving, so we're breaking our own rule... or are we? The 1989 Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade is, of course, a cavalcade of disgusting American excess, whether you're here for the Garfield balloons, the marching band composed entirely of Ronald McDonalds, the prancing majorettes, or that weird float where skeletor is riding a dragon. Most importantly, though, ALF is here! Let's join Alf for a walk down memory lane if we can think to talk about anything beyond the commercials. Stay tuned afterwards for a really long rant about Winnie the Pooh.

What if Charlie Brown went to France? That's what this, the final early stage Peanuts theatrical feature film asks. Snoopy gets into typical Snoopy hijinks, but this special explores the limits of what you can do with the Peanuts formula with some nice atmospheric mystery creepiness. Snoopy loves a mystery!

If it's Halloween it must be Saw, er I mean Special Presentation! Six of our regular crew, including DMXI, Rocketshark, Fattyatomicmutant and Glumdrop have joined us for the spookiest... well, not really. The most Halloween-themed... OK honestly some of these are more HARVEST themed than Halloween. But join us if you will for The Pac-Man Halloween Special, Marc Summers' Magical Mystery Special, and Spookley The Square Pumpkin!

Frank Miller was a big deal, briefly, right after Sin City and 300, so they thought, heeeey, why not let him write and direct the big screen debut of Will Eisner's superhero comic strip The Spirit? Frank Miller brings his signature style and incomprehensible fashy sensibilities to this big of hot garbage. Never have you watched Samuel L Jackson and Scarlet Johansen embarrass themselves so!
