new G.I. Joe cartoon – Resolute

Recently I saw a new G.I. Joe cartoon on TV.  Actually, it was more of a movie, called Resolute.  It was on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim (which I don’t watch often, but happened to find this).

If you like action movies and/or the original G.I. Joe cartoon, you will like this.   The story was great, the graphics were great, and the sound was incredible — movie-quality (and featuring lots of bass).  (Although the web version doesn’t have quite the graphical and sound quality; if you can catch it on TV, do so.)

But this is not your ’80s G.I. Joe!  By that, I mean that people actually die sometimes.   (If you were growing up in the ’80s, you probably remember how it was — on cartoons and even TV shows like the A-Team, no one ever died, and they made sure to not even imply it.)

There are several parts to this one episode, and all together it may be close to an hour in length.   So it takes some time.  But if you have any interest in it, I highly recommend watching it.

Peter Griffin forms the NAAFP

I don’t watch The Family Guy on a regular basis, but I’ve seen a few episodes and clips here and there, and this is one of the funniest.  It’s not complicated humor in this one, but some of you will really like it.  Peter Griffin formed the N.A.A.F.P. — The National Association for the Advancement of Fat People.  Their first meeting is hilarious.

Unfortunately, the full clip of this scene got removed from YouTube, but here’s the Spanish version of it, which is still funny.  Really, with this clip, the dialogue isn’t really needed, because I’ve already told you what it’s about.  The humor results from bodily functions, which naturally translate into any language.  🙂  Click here to watch the video.

Someone took the English audio from this clip and applied it to President Bush’s last State of the Union address.  Click here if you have a taste for such things…
