    @wanion: and instead of a bunch of penis tentacles they are going to give us a creature who has over a 100 penis tentacles and can subdue at least 40 girls at one time.

    An entire horror cartoon label? Awesome. Glad to see Disney can be free with their mother-killing and hidden sex references.

    I applaud the measure. We'll see how it really delivers when the first few projects hit the screen, but any progress in Western animation towards a medium rather than a genre is wicked news. Go Disney!

    "darker slate of animated films than the usual Disney cartoon fare"

    You mean, like The Black Cauldron or Land Before Time (the first one) or N.H.I.M.? Sure, I'm in anyday.

    In reply to Take a Second Look Inside the Venture Compound
    This article and its comments inspired me to buy The Venture Bros. soundtrack from Amazon, available, appropriately I guess, only on vinyl or MP3. I chose the latter; although I have a turntable, it would just get ripped to digital form anyway. I've yet to see the series, but I collect movie and TV soundtracks, and I was not disappointed.

    It made me wonder why it's animated media that seems to have some of the great jazz themes: this one, Jonny Quest (trust me, it's just as good as you remember it), The Jetsons, The Incredibles (really, does that score have a track that's not worth listening to?).

    So a big T H A N K Y O U to the commenters who mentioned the music!

    Great job, Lauren! I can't wait for the show to return...

    Most of my thoughts have already been covered by other commenters, though, except that the first time I saw it, I could have sworn the Sovereign was talking *about* David Bowie, as in Bowie not being the Sovereign after all; he says "Pay no attention to the handsome and ageless rockstar hiding behind the couch - *I* am the mighty Sovereign!" - but going back, I notice that Bowie is holding a microphone, which makes it very confusing. Also, anyone notice how the Sovereign speaks exactly like the Monarch here? If it is, in fact, not Bowie, my money's on the Monarch.

    Also, re: Phantom Limb's ancestor, the character narrating here specifically says "your grandfather played [something]horn".

    @Paul_Is_Drunk: I think there's going to be a lots of alternate history stuff/time paradoxes in this season. Many pointers towards that in this trailer :-)

    I know Dean says "him" in reference to Hitler, but is there any chance he's talking about Girl Hitler? (One of the most outrageous characters ever).

    @CodenameV:
    I could have sworn he slurred it, but I admit he definitely says "him." Maybe something involving time travel?
    Still, Girl Hitler is so weird, I wish they would have her back.
