This new Disney blog seems like it could become a promising source of Mouse news. It’s run by John Frost, whose grandfather was early Disney Imagineer Vic Greene. Also we’ve added a new link to the “Brew Recommends” sidebar – Harvey Deneroff’s Deneroff.com, a site which does an admirable job of linking to articles about animation from around the globe.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.A Hello Kitty robot is going on sale in November. Equipped with an ultra-sound sensor and camera, the mechanical Kitty can tell if anybody is approaching. It can call a person’s name and start chatting by sorting 20,000 patterns of pre-registered conversations and picking phrases it feels are best suited to the occasion. They hope to sell 2,000 robot cats this year, priced at around 400,000 yen (3,710 dollars), by mainly targeting women in their 30s who are among the cat’s biggest fans.

In this NY TIMES article about FAMILY GUY’s Seth MacFarlane, he reveals that on September 11, 2001, he was booked on one of the planes that flew into the World Trade Center, but thanks to a dumb travel agent and a hangover, he missed the flight.

Russell Degnan has a nice REPORT from the Melbourne International Animation Festival with mini-reviews of the films and retrospective programs that he saw at the fest. He’s very thoughtfully divided up his film reviews into categories like “The Entertainers” and “The Bizarre But Brilliant”. Definitely worth a read, especially if you see a lot of short films. And his festival report reminds me, I should probably get around to posting some comments about the Zagreb Animation Festival. No Comments » posted in Old Brew
