Animation

Way back in the early 1980s I was a huge anime fan way before it was cool or popular. And to this day I still love the theme to this show. The whole soundtrack is great, actually. And the story is inspired in that it was so completely original in its day and a precursor to shows like Evangelion. While the main characters red Jewfro and the rather poorly chosen names for the villains and some of the characters dates it, Space Runaway: Ideon is a classic.

Here’s a beautiful trance remix of the closing theme to Ideon, which is also a song I love like the opening theme.

Hard to believe the animation genius of the 40s and 50s first did a John Carter of Mars test animation in the late 1930s. Now Disney is finally coming out with their Barsoom movie this year.

A new Roadrunner cartoon in computer animation. Not bad!
