From the description “An Inuit child wanders away from his village, fascinated by a wild bird. His father follow his trail, determined to find him before he gets lost on the ice floe…”

Ok, all I can say is that bird at the beginning is so damn cute.

Seriously, I'm 30 and just got around to watching this film as a personal homework assignment, also Disney's LAST 2D animated film (aside from Princess and the Frog), and it is absolutely drop dead gorgeous. Also, I found myself liking Doppler's (dog creature) character more than anyone's in the film, aside from the anti-hero Silver. For all the furry fans in this subreddit, I don't see enough said about this film. I'm not arguing that it was a perfect movie ($140 million budget, $40 million profit....aka a box office bomb). However, the character designs were very strong, and some of the animations drawn and expressed I've never seen in an animated film, including Pixar. There's a lot of charm in this film.

Anyone seen this film? Thoughts on it? What about the characters?

Akshat Rathi reports:

A handful of ideas regarding zebras’ stripes have found some support among biologists. One proposed that the dark and light bands change how air flows around a zebra’s body and helps in heat management, which could go a long way in the hot tropical areas that zebras live in.

Another proposed the stripes were used by zebras as a way of social interaction. They may use them to identify other zebras and for bonding as a group in the wild.

A third proposal suggested zebras used the stripes as camouflage. While stripes are clearly visible in the day, there some thought that it helped at dawn, dusk, and in the night.

All these ideas were shot down when tested rigorously. Two others, however, remained intriguing.

Milwaukee news ran a short news segment on LARPing recently and I was watching it on Facebook through a link a friend posted. I wasn't expecting anything in particular, but one of those funny coincidences happened. Lo and behold, Alkali was one of the individuals they spoke with! Way to be a positive face of the community even when not involved in activities directly tied to the community!

Pandamonium: A Steampunk Panda Adventure

Kickstarter ending 6/10/14

I’ll admit: I’m torn here. The book cover promises that rarest of things, a rock’em-sock’em swashbuckling panda adventure. And you know what? I want to believe. because that’s a pretty awesome panda pirate captain.

Artist/author Patrick Scullin is no slouch on the illustration front. He’s got a nice portfolio of illustrations, with lots of solid “supers” imagery, a few Doctors thrown in there for the Whovians. There’s even a set of ninja turtles–and they’re good! Scullin has a few publishing credits under his belt as well, bound volumes of his nerd-friendly “Super Siblings” webcomic–running almost exactly six years now, pretty strong stuff!

And I want to believe because I love steampunk, and bears are pretty cool, too. An epic battle of Grizzlies vs. Polar Bears, with one lone panda airship captain (all authentic steampunk captains have airships. I hope it’s a Zeppelin.) sounds like a pretty solid story, even if it draws a little heavily on tropes we have seen before (last scion of her race is a touch overplayed in fantasy).

But…but I don’t believe, and I’m sorry. I love the artwork, at least what I’ve seen, and I think the artwork might be enough to carry the project. But the writing’s kind of leaden, exposition-heavy and weirdly lacking in punctuation marks. There’s a PDF preview of the body copy on the Kickstarter page. Judge for yourself.

On the other hand, if bears are your big interest, this might be a rare opportunity–there’s not a lot of bear love in the anthro/talking animal novel sphere, particularly for something outside the Fandom. Check out the preview (I’ve ganked all the art from the Kickstarter site here, there’s not a lot of it…) see if the text and story grab you, and support a solid artist.

Just purely curious x3

I know this isn't relevant to Furry stuff but I'm curious. :3

Some Rings of Saturn here~ \m/

edit: 20 up, 20 down, I won't do this again :P
