Warm up sketch today is that nasty Predacon mad scientist (not a ninja) Tarantulas!

Tarantulas brought such great things to the Transformers franchise. He introduced a third faction in what was usually a two-sided war and he was the first really creepy mad scientist (check out The Web, linked below). Above all, he was just a super fun villain.
I’m joined by Dave Roman for one more holiday special walkthrough for 2011, and we’re pointing our lasers at one that often gets overlooked by fans of the Rankin/Bass specials. The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, originally a book by L. Frank Baum, was the last of the Rankin/Bass “animagic” stop-motion features released in 1985 and featured what some might consider a bizarre combination of high fantasy with the sweet song-and-dance numbers one expects from the studio’s specials. But Dave and I both love this special and I think it shows as we proceed through an exhaustive walkthrough complete with audio clips.

| Dec 20, 2011 | Saturday Supercast 27 – Christmas in July |
After a very long hiatus, the Saturday Supercast returns! I’m joined this time by Dave Roman, who walks with me through the Rankin/Bass epic holiday special Rudolph & Frosty’s Christmas in July. Throughout our walkthrough we discuss the strange issues that arise out of referring to one’s own “continuity” while disregarding or altering parts of it. Who knew that these holiday specials were so much like the American Comic Book Industry!
