Hey there mr Mike Narren, first of all, thank you. Adam and Dr Drew are aware of your stuff and your short films help the rest of us convince the Loveline Duo that not all of their dear listeners are slow-headed stoners and junior college dropouts.

Also, you've probably had an ass-load of unsolicited suggestions for future shorts but here's mine-- maybe showing a loveline caller, splitscreen style with the dr and adam on one side, caller on the other. There are so many great caller who call from trucks, security jobs, band practice, you name it.

thanks again dude

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 1:27 PM

Thank you. I'm glad everyone likes it. After the "Submarine", which was almost entirely Adam, I wanted to balance it out with a nice Drew piece. And I don't think his Vicarness has mentioned it yet, but I'm hopeful!


And now, some line item responses...

"Have you told Adam and Drew yet? Does West Wood let you do that, is that why the copyright is there, or you just trying to head off trouble before it starts?" -Masteel

I sent the link to Adam Sunday, but who knows when he'll check his email! Anderson was just here, so I'm assuming that he'll probably pass it along. And I figure as long as Adam and Drew like the pieces, no one's gonna sue me.


"I think you need to put those "cans" on their ears and have Adam wearing a hat when they are in the studio..." —victoria and B

I almost put a hat on him this time, but then I decided against it. I was this close, though! The cans, on the other hand, are big and lumpy, but I might have to start drawing them, for the sake of accuracy.


"Just to appreciate how much work is involved, how long did it take to do this one?" —enliteneer

This one took a month, but it was a relatively relaxed month. I can comfortably do a half minute a week, but if something needs to be done quicker, I start sleeping less and just do it. Like the "Submarine" was three and a half minutes, and got done in just under a month.


"And one more thing. Why did you not give your second animation Adam's title 'Subterranean Parking'...?" —GaveO

I completely forgot that he had named it!!! I struggled with what to call it for days, and eventually came up with "Grand Theft", and then at some point after I had posted the piece, I listened to the rest of the episode and heard the name! Doh!

Pure genius as usual. Perfect comic realization of Adam's thoughts. To bad you can't make a living out of this. There would be a copious amount of good content to base the cartoons around, and the community would no doubt find it endlessly entertaining.

Hopefully you'll find time to do more!

Fantastic Thunderbear. Fantastic.

Its probably the best animation you've done so far. Its DEFNITELY the coolest bumper music that you've used. With that classical music, playing over the picture of the statue at the end. GREAT.

Thunderbear, what is your process when choosing a particular conversation between A&D to animate? Do you comb through hundreds of hours of audio? Do you just hear something worth animating on each show?

i just watched it again. Wow, Amazing.
I love the opening and end bumper page and its music. Anway, I'm surprised no one has mentioned this point: It's very interesting that in this animation you see Drews parents, the kicker tho is, and what is interesting is, that Drews parents DO look like Drew! His father looks like half Drew and his mother looks like half Drew.

It must have been weird trying to come up with characters that resemble what two people would look like to spawn Drew. Amazing.

By the way, I'm told that Drew is of Russian Descent, in this animation his father does look Russian I'm not so sure about the mom. Is Drew of 100 percent Russian descent?

Alot of people dont know this, and ironically Drew has mentioned it, I knew it all along tho, that one of Europe's secrets is that the best looking women in the world come from Russia, Czech Republic and Hungary.
Everyone always thinks Paris and Rome have the best. In fact the three Eastern European countries that I named there have MUCH better looking women, and more of them.

AC-
The Ruskie hotties were discussed in the TITS thread. Vanity Fair cover from last month shows 10 newer supermodels, all from these countries. The town I live in has swarms of Russian students from "affluent" families back home (means they probably use 2-ply TP), and many of the girls are definitely waffle crappers. Most are actively looking for an American with $ to marry, and they're not exactly ashamed to admit it. Aside from that, Brazil comes to mind for bangability ratio.

I hear ya DrewPlee. I dont know if you've been to Brasil, there are defnitly some hot women there, but honestly I cant imagine that Brasil even competes with some other countries. Argentina though, directly below Brasil, amazing. The best looking women I've ever seen. But, I was in poland last year and they were all drop dead gorgeous over there too. I couldnt believe it.
I know from word of mouth and from downloading pics online that the best women of all time seem to be from Hungary, Russia, the Czech Repub and Ukraine. I may try to get out there sometime to witness it for myself. Im heading to Brasil in 2 weeks to teach english, there is no money to be made there tho. Ive been hearing that Prague has one of the best TESL courses, and after completing it there in fact is some work to be found in that area. Id like to check it out.
