I would sit him down quietly, offer him an espresso, and politely tell him that he has no business animating any more Al videos.

Then I'd tar and feather him.

Nah, I'd just give him a box of one-dozen starving crazed weasels and encourage him to open it. If that didn't work, then I'd tar and feather him.

If I ever see him, I`ll tell him I`m so glad not to be him, because a gang of WoWAYers is coming to make him pay for TMZ`s crappy video.
I`ll join in taring and feathering him too.

Are there any Bill Plympton FANS on here who could point us to some of what you would consider his good stuff???

Are there any Bill Plympton APOLOGISTS on here who could point us to some of what you would consider his good stuff???

Fixed.

Guard Dog. The other movies in the Dog series (Guide Dog, Hot Dog, and Horn Dog) are all pretty funny too.

The Cow Who Wanted To Be A Hamburger and Santa The Fascist Years are also good.

I'm mainly familiar with Bill Plympton from his "Dog" shorts, which are all wonderfully surreal, dark, and twisted. I've also seen Nose Hair and a few other odd shorts. I don't know that I've seen enough of his work to call myself a fan, but I've never seen anything of his that I didn't at least find entertaining.

He used to do some cool stuff that was shown on Liquid Tv on Mtv years ago. His stuff can be pretty surreal sometimes. I think his work would be better suited for songs like Bob or Nobody Hear But us Frogs.

So, songs with lyrics that don't make any sense? Yeah, I can see that!

I like those animated videos for Albuquerque and EYKIW....those are easily better than at least half of these videos...Al should talk to that guy.
