Like I said, I caught The Animation Show in Atlanta on July 5. Here's
some random comments about the shorts:

SPOILER WARNING

Opener - A funny stylized opener. They seem to borrowed the plot from
"Young@Heart". :-)

Operator - Eh, why make a cartoon of a realistic looking human doing nothing
but talk? :-( The dialogue is amusing; this could've made for a funny Monty
Python skit. But still, what's the point?

Psychotown - Yuck. Nothing but lame prank gags that stopped being funny once I
got out of grade school. And the film had three of these. :-P

Burning Safari - Yeah, you can't miss with adorable robots. ;-) Said robots
plus funny slapstick and a glowing color pallete made this a very endearing
short. The action scenes were a little messy though.

Yompi, the Crotch Biting Sloup - Er, I usually like Corky Quackenbush's work.
Not this time. :-P Yompi's m.o. of ingratiating himself to his victims was
interesting for only the first short. I really don't want to see this short
series again. :-P
