Family Guy vs The Simpsons


This is the typical debate between people who watch cartoons on FOX... who is better? The Simpsons or Family Guy? its hard to decide sometimes, because both of them have their own cool stuff, but many people usually argue that Family Guy is a cheap knock off of the Simpsons... that may be true, maybe not, maybe its just a way to pay tribute to the mother of all cartoon parodies...

Anyways, I was just reading an article on Set McFarlane on Fast Company, and the article states that "Family Guy, has surpassed The Simpsons, as the most-popular animated show on TV. Among males 18 to 34, often cited as the most desirable demographic in advertising, Family Guy is the highest-rated scripted program in all of television..." so even if its a cheap knock off it has still achieved what many thought wasnt possible... beating The Simpsons as the best cartoon of FOX.

I personally prefer Family Guy than the Simpsons, and in no way do I consider it a copy, I do think that they based some of their characters from the Simpsons, but cmon, lets face it, they are both parodies of American Life, and there is no way you can make the typical american, without him being compared to Homer Simpson... however, they did try to mix it up a bit with the main character in American Dad by doing an action packed dad from the CIA, but in the end, he is just as stupid as Homer or Peter... Plus I dont think that Chris can be compared in any way to Bart Simpson, and the same is to be said in the Stewie vs Maggie area... Lisa vs Meg or Marge vs Lois could be some sort of copy, but besides that I think, both of them have really original characters, each funny in its own way....

I do not think one is better than the other one, I think that its a generational issue, what does this mean, precisely what it sounds like, it all depends on which generation is the public audience... the same debate happened with Seinfeld vs Friends, or if you want to wander into other areas there is Joe Namath vs Joe Montana, Coke vs Pepsi, McDonalds vs Burger King, etc...

Anyways its good that both of these TV shows keep on going strong... American Dad is not so far behind, and next year McFarlane will unveil his newest creation and Family Guy spin off, The Cleveland Show, of course based on the show's most lovable african american Cleveland. I wouldnt doubt that after that maybe there is a spin off from Roger Smith (the alien of american dad)...

GI: JOE : Rise of Cobra (The Movie)


When I was a young boy, one of my favorite past times was playing with my GIJOEs, just like Transformers did last year, when they brought one of my favorite toys to the big screen, GIJOE is doing the same thing on 2009...


I was really happy to hear this news since I have been a fan of these toys forever, now I hope that the movie is carefully done so that they dont throw the money down the trash... I was always a big fan of the cartoons as well, so I hope that they get back to some of those roots as well...
Now to the details. The movie is being directed by Stephen Sommers (The guy who did the first two Mummy franchise films) and some of the actors in the movie include: Dennis Quaid (Vantage Point) as General Hawk, Channing Tatum (Step Up) as duke, the main hero in the movie, the director originally wanted Mark Wahlberg, but he was busy doing some other films, Sienna Miller (Alfie) as the Baroness, Joseph Gordon Levitt (Third Rock from the Sun) as Cobra Commander, Arnold Voosloo (The Mummy) as Zartan and of course, Brendan Fraser as Gung Ho... some other credits include, Marlon Wayans, Jonathan Pryce, Rachel Nichols and Adewale Akinnuoye...

Sounds like an interesting project, although many are saying that this movie will be a fluke similar to what they did with the Mortal Kombat series... fans are saying that the suits look like reject designs from the X Men Movies, and many have expressed concern with the soldiers look, which instead of showing them as soldiers, they are being portrayed as superheroes... I guess we'll just have to wait till August 7 2009 to see it...

I leave you here with some of the first teaser pictures of the film, as well as the sneak peak featurette... trailer soon...
