25 YEARS OF FURRY CONVENTIONS. 

“Otter and his mate, Sy Sable, put up on YouTube a recording of the presentation they did at Further Confusion 2014 (in San Jose, California) celebrating 25 years of furry fandom conventions.”  On youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adC7N2pcY2M

Apparently there’s going to be a Secret of NIMH “ live action/CGI animation hybrid adaptation”. I really hope it isn’t terrible, because this is one of my all time favourite animated films. When more info pops up I’ll post more. But, this is all I know for now. 

There’s multiple articles about this. But, I got the info from this one: http://www.movieweb.com/secret-of-nimh-live-action-reboot-rats-movie

The Furry News Network is going on a “hiatus”. The owner of the website is going thru alot of health issues and someone trying to hack into the site on March 30th made him decide to close the website for a while. Maybe he’ll come back and run the site again.

For 'BoJack Horseman,' It Matters If A Cartoon Dog Is A Man Or A Woman

The creators of BoJack Horseman had to make a decision: would a female dog be as funny as a male dog? When it comes to gender in comedy, sometimes animators have more power than they realize. 

I’m on NPR’s “All Things Considered,” talking about gender with Raphael Bob-Waksberg! Give it a listen!

Huge thanks to Neda Ulaby for interviewing us.

A couple months back, boringoldraphael opened his ask box and gem after gem came tumbling out. One post in particular, about deciding the gender of two incidental characters in a one-second sight gag, was particularly impressive in its candor, and it exploded across Tumblr accordingly. Women, it turns out, are just as qualified as men to slobber and be slobbered on, and sometimes it takes arguments and teardrops to come around to that simple truth. 

Delighted that npr found this and followed up. Have a listen. 

And, meanwhile, enjoy lisahanawalt‘s croc wearing Crocs:

NBC News Does a Positive Furry News Story

I couldn't embedd the video, but I liked how this reporter asked people at anthrocon what was up. Apparently this was released around anthrocon 2014.

Furclubbing seems like it's becoming more and more of a regular furry event. I love dancing and music and would love to go to some of these clubs. Theseevents would happen about once a week, as far as I know.

Some of them are doing well so far.

A music video by Skeletonwitch, that is sort of interesting.

Sherlock Hound is now on DVD. I've heard of this but never really watched it before. It seems interesting enough.

Kids can find their inner beast with this series of books. Plus you can put in codes from the books, go on the books website and play this browser based game and you get certain animal partners based on whatever code you have. I think it's interesting.

It's a collection of short stories. Alot of people say that it's a really good book, most of MCA Hogarth's books are really good. I just bought a digital copy of this book and plan on buying more digital copies of furry themed books in the future. I can't wait to read this though.

I just learned about this game just now. It's a browser based game that's still in development. It seems like they should get their own app on Androids and Iphones and also be able to play this on facebook or something. The artwork is very professional and adorable.

Idk if I posted this or not.

"Johan, a rabbit boy, goes on a journey to a magical world. Here he meets the Feather King; Bill, the mad architect; a tough skipper; and all the spring princes. But the Feather King’s realm is not for small rabbits. Johan will need all the help he can get from his new friends to return to his Dad and his own world."

I saw this movie a few months ago. It was pretty enjoyable for me. The animation is decent and the voice acting is nice. The story sort of got slow for a bit and some certain characters irritated me so much. But, I didnt feel like I waisted me time.
