If this -isn’t- Pixar, then bravo to whoever’s done it, it’s ace. :)

I think this was the short shown prior to Ratatouille.

But it is terribly annoying that nearly every CGI on YouTube gets labelled as being by Pixar.

Did I just walk through a door that led me back to 2005?

Sorry if it was posted already :D

Poor woman. One of the tech. people said the recording sounded like a bee in a bottle and she cracked.

BBC Olympic Monkey. They’re using Journey to The West characters as their Olympic mascots this time. I don’t know how many more animations they will do. Created by the Gorillaz team of Josh Hewlett and Damon Albarn, all animated with pencil and paper too.

I’ve always loved the fact the BBC use live-to-air broadcasts for their between show announcements. Whilst that one is quite bad (and in fact even got broadcast by their news podcast!), it’s not that uncommon to hear them muck up.

As for the video:

  1. It’s amazing how much the Gorillaz style shines through…
  2. Can someone explain to me the relationship (of which there strongly is) between this, and the “Monkey Magic” TV series? At least that’s what it was called in Australia. Are they one and the same? Is the title just different? What is going on?

Who’s that Pokemon?

For having to sit through so much intro, those are pretty freakin’ adorable. The strained Batman voice is perfect.

I think Batman and Joker and more than arch enemies, huh, huh?

They are both based on the book ‘Great Western Journey’, one of the ‘four great Chinese novels’. The advert uses the characters and some of the concepts, but is otherwise different.

Oddly, the TV series is Japanese.

After the first one I ended up just skipping 15 seconds in just to avoid the intro. The rest is fantastic though.

The real artistry in this video is how they manage to work in some of the signature sports into the whole thing, while still keeping it so short.
