No time to do a detailed analysis, since I’m going with my friends to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine this afternoon. So I bring you the Peanuts gang. This is part of a series of motion comics available on Joost (seen here) and Veoh. Interestingly, while the classic cartoons seldom revealed Snoopy’s thoughts (the animators had to get them across via pantomime or sometimes Charlie Brown would “translate”), the motion comics actually use thought balloons for Snoopy, while the other characters just talk. (Kind of reminds me of the Spider-Man segments in the old version of The Electric Company.
[Update: 8/21/2010> No longer available at Joost, but it is up at Fancast. Sadly, I can’t embed from that site so click here.]
