The All-Time Greatest Pixar Characters
PIXAR animation studios has been churning out a string of beloved comedy-adventure films since the release of the first "Toy Story" movie in 1995. Their films are populated by a diverse crop of memorable characters, from the living playthings of the "Toy Story" films to the sentient cars of the "Cars" series to the human superheroes of "The Incredibles." Help us determine the final order of this list by voting for your favorite characters so far!

Before breaking into feature-length animated films, the company specialized in animated shorts (such as "Luxo Jr.," which gave rise to the studio's now-familiar desk lamp logo.) PIXAR (owned by Disney) continues to produce animated shorts to this day, which air before the feature films. Characters from both feature-length and short animated productions are included on this list. Characters who appeared in multiple PIXAR movies are listed with the first film in which they featured.

The Best Fake Words From The Simpsons
If you aren't using Embiggen in your everyday jibber-jabber, your life must be sad and small. The Simpsons have been around for a couple decades now, and have given us so many fabulous words and made-up Simpsons sayings and Bart slang... SO many that, really, should be in the dictionary despite their dubious meanings. I mean, if you can't figure out what Tramampoline means... come ON. There's a more complete list out there somewhere, I'm sure, but these are the best of the fakes... the best words that the Simpsons have given us.

13 Simpsons Jokes That Actually Came True

13 Simpsons Jokes That Actually Came True
One of the most iconic television shows of all time, as well as one of the most quoted properties in pop culture history, The Simpsons has made hundreds of jokes that we all know, remember, and reference on a daily basis. Often times, these jokes revolve around extremely absurd concepts that could only happen in a cartoon or a satire – according to the writers at the time. Sometimes, these jokes underestimate just how low humanity (and often, America) can go. The Simpsons predictions listed here all came true!

Here's a collection of hilarious Simpsons jokes that really ended up being true, happening or being repeated elsewhere. There are some crazy things The Simpsons predicted, so read on to find out what!
http://www.ranker.com/list/13-simpsons-jokes-that-actually-came-true/robert-wabash,

It Tastes Like Grandma!!
The Joke:
Inspired by a Zorro movie, Homer begins slapping people with a glove and challenging them to duels.

When a real Southern gentleman accepts Homer's request for a duel, the Simpsons run off to the old farm Homer lived on with his parents and breed a dangerously addictive but successful tobacco/tomato hybrid called "tomacco."

What Actually Happened:
Homer’s "tomacco" plant became a reality when Rob Baur, a senior operations analyst at an Oregon sewage treatment plant, created it in his house.

He grafted together a tobacco root with a tomato plant to create a real-life tomacco, without even enlisting the aid of radioactive material.

To date, no nearby farm animals have gone berserk and articulated their tomacco desire through speech yet. YET.
There's Very Little Meat In These Gym Mats
The Joke: As seen in the video above, Lunch Lady Doris is seen throwing gym mats into a meat grinder in order to prepare the school lunch for the day.

Anyone who's ever had a public school lunch knows how completely inedible they can be, and some of the wet, warm, questionable objects on your styrofoam, sectioned-off tray do seem like they have hazardous chemicals as their base...but gym mats?

That's unheard of, that would never happen, right?



What Actually Happened:
So it turns out that the bread used in the McDonald's McRib actually contains an ingredient (banned in some parts of Europe) that is used to keep gym mats sponge-y.

Time Magazine's Healthland blog ran a story about the McRib and its ingredients. It identified Azodicarbonamide as one ingredient found in the sandwich's bun and apparently, it is most commonly used in the manufacturing of foam gym mats and the soles of shoes.

The blog also noted that the 70 ingredients of the McRib, including Azodicarbonamide, exist in very small quantities and will almost certainly leave anyone eating a McRib unharmed. Subway was also found to be using the chemical in its bread, too.

Still, Azodicarbonamide is a substance banned in Europe and strictly regulated by the FDA. 

Looks like the Doris joke really wasn't that far off.
My Retirement Grease!!!!!


The Joke:
In the episode "In Lard Of The Dance" Homer discovers he can make money by stealing and reselling grease found in the back of Springfield Elementary's kitchen. They even build a contraption so that they can steal the maximum amount of grease in their car, like so...



They eventually give up after a few encounters with Groundskeeper Willie and the Springfield Grease Company.



Bart and Homer barely escape an angry, greased-up Willie while trying to make it home-free with their glorious, profit-garnering grease in tow.

What Actually Happened:
In November of 2011, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that thieves had stolen at least $2,000 worth of grease from the privately-owned restaurant The St. Louis Wing Co. since April.

"It's a big deal. There's a huge underground out there for this stuff," owner Bobby Thessler said. "Others have said that this is like the new copper... These thieves are getting more sophisticated..."



When he called the police on these thieves, they spotted three teenagers taking grease from the back of Tessler's restaurant, as well as others on that same block.

The man uses about 60 to 70 pounds of grease every week, so saving money by selling it has always been a way to help break even.

A rendering company would have paid the owner of the company multiple thousands of dollars for used cooking grease.


Itchy and Scratchy's Bloody Billboard
The Joke:
When The "Itchy and Scratchy Movie" premiered in The Simpsons, they advertised with a billboard that sprayed blood when Itchy hit Scratchy over the head with a sledgehammer, meant to poke fun at the overtness of not only violence in emerging popular media, but in even its advertising.



What Actually Happened:
New Zealand was super excited about the TV premier of Kill Bill, so they borrowed the idea from "The Simpsons" in a way that actually may have escaped the creators of the controversial Kill Bill billboard.



In an homage to Kill Bill's gore, the billboard sprayed "blood" across the wall, street and cars.

Just like the advertising for "The Itchy and Scratchy Movie."
Flaming Moe
The Joke:
Homer tells the local tavern owner Moe about a secret cocktail that includes cough medicine and fire that he calls a "Flaming Homer." 

Moe steals the recipe and renames the drink the "Flaming Moe," and begins selling it at his tavern, betraying Homer in the process. The drink is a success and Moe becomes famous, even Aerosmith drops by to perform at his place!



What Actually Happened:
Andy Heidel, the owner of a bar in Prospect Heights, NY called The Way Station, just happened to have a bottle of Robitussin behind the bar when someone brought up the Flaming Moe. Not sure why you would have cough medicine behind a bar, but whatever. He grabbed the 'tussin and mixed it with Pernod, Jagermeister and a Bacardi 151 floater and set it on fire. He and his friends got shmammered and the real-life Flaming Moe was born. 


Scotchtoberfest
The Joke:
principal Skinner tries to set Bart up to get in trouble, so he concocts something called "Scotchtoberfest," which allows him to control an entire event in which he knows Bart won't be able to resist pranking Groundskeeper Willie. Skinner attempts to catch Bart in act.


Vintage Wine & Spirits Co. A wine, beer, spirits, cigar, and wine accessory specialty shop located in West Des Moines, Iowa created a real Scotchtoberfest held every Saturday in October.


I Was Elected To Lead Not To Read
The Joke:
This was a dig at Governor Schwarzenegger from The Simpson's Movie, saying he was too dumb to be a Government official.

The line "I was elected to lead, not read," was such a ridiculous statement because an elected official's entire job is reading long, difficult legislation, making sense of it, then deliberating.

What Actually Happened:
In the 2012 GOP race there was a man by the name of Herman Cain, and he ran on the slogan "We need a leader, not a reader."

So yeah, that almost happened.

What does that slogan even mean? You need to read and be at least somewhat of an intellectual to run a country, that's why that joke in The Simpsons is so fun and why in the real world it's just so tragic.


Stolen Sugar Truck
The Joke:
Lisa begins to feel threatened by Allison, a new student, because she is smarter, younger, and a better saxophone player than she is.



Their rivalry reaches a climax at the school's diorama contest where Lisa plans to sabotage Allison's entry. The episode's subplot sees Homer steal a large pile of sugar from a crashed truck, and begin selling it door-to-door. He keeps it in the back yard and it eventually melts from the rain.

What Actually Happened:

Someone actually stole a freaking sugar truck.

In 2009, two kids were arrested by police in India for stealing a sugar truck from a person actually in charge of delivering the sugar. The kids were actually in charge of cleaning the truck and took it while it was parked at the cleaner/boss's house.

No word on whether or not they planned to sell it door to door.


The Land Of Chocolate
The Joke:
The Land of Chocolate is a land imagined by Homer when German businessman bought the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and, during an interview, told Homer they came from "the Land of Chocolate," meaning Germany.

In Homer's head, this land was made entirely of chocolate, including houses, streetlights, paths, and rivers. Even chocolate rabbits and dogs. And in a part called "Fudgetown," they even had chocolate fudge rains.

What Actually Happened:
Well, China has done it again. For the second year in a row, a theme park made entirely from chocolate will open its doors in Shanghai, according to CNNGo.

The park used 80 tons of Belgian chocolate to create sculptures such as the Terracotta warriors and The Great Wall.

The exhibit drew roughly a half a million visitors, according to CNNGo.



This year, the park is moving to Shanghai's Himalayas Art Museum, and will feature 200 pieces of chocolate art. Chocolatiers will also be on hand to make everything from truffle chocolate to wine chocolate; visitors will also be able to create their own chocolate.

I think if I were to actually visit this theme park, I would act exactly as Homer did in his dream. No word yet on the edible, sentient chocolate animals.
The Good Morning Burger


The Joke:

In the Simpsons, the Good Morning Burger was 18 ounces of sizzling ground beef soaked in rich creamery butter, topped off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg.

This was before all fast food restaurants started carrying a regular menu of heart-attacks every morning before 10:30AM, so it really worked as a satire of how horrible fast food is for you.

Before the "Baconator," a Sourdough Jack, or even a triple cheeseburger were as bad as things got.

The Good Morning Burger seemed so ridiculous and far off that it could never really happen.

Until...


What Actually Happened: This take on the Good Morning Burger is quite similar: hash browns, topped with a hamburger, topped with a fried egg. There are hash browns under a burger that's under a fried egg.

Another good example of how far things have gotten in fast food are, of course, the KFC Double Down and their "failure bowls" (as comedian Patton Oswalt calls them in this bit).

'90s Cartoon Tattoos

Cartoons today just aren’t the same. If you’ve ever found yourself staring at those new computer-generated characters in horror, you’re not alone. Gone are the good old days when real cartoons roamed the screen; those happy golden years of belching, hand-drawn figures. If you long for the cartoons of yesteryear, join us as we celebrate a collection of overly-enthusiastic folks who took their love of the best ‘90s cartoons to the extreme. You guessed it! We assembled a list of the wildest and wackiest ‘90s cartoon tattoos!

Meet a group of ‘90s kids who never got over that joy of that wonderful decade, and have the ink to prove it. This bunch boldly looked today’s educational programming in the face and said, “Nay. For us there shall be no learning of colors or counting of numbers, but instead: reruns that celebrate true heroes, like a bold little Chihuahua named Ren and his frequently flatulent friend, Stimpy!”

If you’re ready to eschew today’s lame cartoons, with their alphabet memorization and nursery rhyme nonsense, look no further than to the ideals of Turtle Power, Mario-like Brotherhood, and Duck Tales that form the very foundations of television. Because nothing “strength, honor, and national pride” like a guy with a football shaped head or an Earthworm dressed in a cape. And so it is in their honor that we launch forth into the bold world of ‘90s cartoon tats.

Vote for the best ‘90s cartoon tattoos, and if you come across something better (or have your own awesome ‘90s tattoo), add it to the list!

100+ Easter Eggs from Every Pixar Movie

100+ Easter Eggs from Every Pixar Movie

Second only to maybe Marvel Studios and their wealth of comic references, cinema's Easter egg king is most certainly Pixar. The animators work on these films for years at a time and like to sneak in little jokes and references for fans to discover for years to come. People scour these films with a fine tooth comb looking for anything that throws back to Pixar film history, or makes references to upcoming films that just might hint at Pixar's next big hit. This list of Pixar Easter eggs has over 200 fun facts and little details you might not have noticed from all Pixar’s films.
 

Pixar Animation Studios have not only consistently plugged their own films with sneaky little nods, but they've also invented recurring companies and items spread throughout their filmography. This both ties together all the Pixar movies, and cuts down on annoying and distracting product placement for real companies. 
 

For example, either Dinoco or Buy n Large appear in nearly every Pixar film. Pizza Planet also makes an appearance in literally every single Pixar film except The Incredibles. And let’s not forget the other Pixar inside jokes including the the crazy places they hid A113 (the classroom where most of the guys met in college), the Luxo ball (which was first featured in an early Pixar short), and many Apple references (Steve Jobs co-founded Pixar, after all), which are all a part of the Pixar universe. 
 

We've decided to do a round up of ALL the Pixar Easter eggs and sort them into groups (by movie for the most part). As it stands, we’ve contained over 200 Easter eggs in 100 categories! There are even a couple references to Newt (a movie they never even finished making), Star Wars (owned by parent company Lucasfilm), and some Kubrick films as well. Enjoy the wonderful world of Pixar with these cleverly hidden Easter eggs!

23 Things You Didn't Know About Rugrats

23 Things You Didn
Rugrats was one of the most iconic, influential, and memorable cartoons of all time. In the heyday of Nickelodeon and Nicktoons, it reigned supreme (no easy feat) and it's certainly one of the best animated series of all time. But you were likely just a young rugrat yourself when you were enjoying this television show, so why not get educated on the behind the scenes facts and other fun Rugrats trivia you might not have picked up on back in the '90s?

Since its main protagonists were all so different, Rugrats gave kids a broad spectrum of characters to relate to. Even its antagonist, Angelica, had her good qualities and gave older sisters a show they could watch with their younger siblings. Meanwhile the show was teaching children important life lessons and morals left and right, hidden in the fun times of these crazy kid characters. It really was the perfect kids show and there hasn't been a kids cartoon series quite like Rugrats since!

Lets take a look back at this colorful animated world of '90s nostalgia and dig up some Rugrats facts you may not have known and be sure to upvote the most interesting Rugrats TV show trivia below!
http://www.ranker.com/list/rugrats-trivia-facts/coy-jandreau, tv, television, cartoons, animated, behind the scenes, other,

The Show Wasn't Just Entertaining, it Was Inspirational
Although the movie and the 1997 episode "Mother's Day" tell viewers that Chuckie's mom died, the early episodes implied she was still alive. They did this so children watching the show who had also dealt with the death of a parent would have someone with whom to identify.
Tommy Pickles Owned Not One, but TWO Shirts
Tommy Pickles is basically a cartoon icon, instantly recognizable by his blue shirt... but his shirt wasn't always blue! In the pilot episode, Tommy is shown wearing a red shirt instead.
The Rugrats Were Closer in Age Than You Think
Angelica is the oldest of the Rugrats at three years old, Susie turned three next, Chuckie was two, Kimi was nearly two, Lil is older than Phil, followed by Tommy, and Dil (who was just a baby). Of course by now they'd all be well into their twenties. Don't think about it.
It Had a Strong Female Cast
Although three of the four main babies are male, all four of them were voiced by females.
The Creators of Rugrats Worked on Another Hugely Popular Animated Show
In 1989, Rugrats was created by then husband and wife Gabor Csupo and Arlene Klasky, along with Paul Germain. At the time, all three were also working on The Simpsons and continued to work on it until 1992.
It Wasn't Just Tommy - Everyone on the Show Had a Real Hard Time with Angelica
Co-creator Arlene Klasky reportedly hated Angelica at first, disliking how much of a bully she was, and it took her a while to come around to the character. Even the actress who voiced Angelica sometimes felt uncomfortable acting like such a bully.  

Klasky had changed her mind by the time the movie came out, saying, "I think she's great for the show, I love Angelica." (That awesome song and dance number in the movie probably helped.)
Tommy Was Born to Be Brave
The reason Tommy is always depicted as adventurous, brave, and as having a fighting spirit was that he was born premature.
Pat Sajak Was the Only Real Person to Have a Cameo
In fact, he was the only real person to cameo in any of the three original Nicktoons (Rugrats, The Ren & Stimpy Show, and Doug).
The Pickles' House Has an Iconic Address
The Pickle family's house is located at 1258 N. Highland, the original address of the Klasky-Csupo production offices in Los Angeles (Klasky-Csupo produced the show).
The Original Pilot Never Actually Aired
The pilot sold to Nickelodeon in 1990 never actually aired. It was mostly seen at animation conventions and became available to the general public as part of the 10 year anniversary DVD Decade in Diapers. There were only a few changes in the depictions of the characters in that pilot to the one that aired, including Tommy wearing suspenders and Lou Pickles being named Stu Pickles, Sr.

The Best Rick and Morty Quotes From The Series So Far
Easily one of the best new shows on TV, Adult Swim's Rick and Morty is chalk full of amazing quotes that are both hilarious and thought provoking. Created by Justin Roiland and Community's Dan Harmon, Rick and Morty is fresh, visually stimulating, and downright hilarious. This list showcases some of Rick and Morty's best one liners so far, although many are spoken by Rick since he steals the show almost every episode. In a time where Adult Swim is straying away from animated content and producing more and more live action content, R&M is a very good sign that the network hasn't completely abandoned hope for cartoons. Vote for the best Rick and Morty quotes and dialogue you see below, and if one of your favorites is missing, let us know in the comment and we'll add it to the list!

Poptarts
Morty: "I mean, why would a poptart want to live inside a toaster, Rick? I mean, that would be like the scariest place for them to live. You know what I mean?"
Rick: "You're missing the point Morty. Why would he drive a smaller toaster with wheels? I mean, does your car look like a smaller version of your house? No."
Rick's View on Love

Rick: "Listen, Morty, I hate to break it to you but what people call "love" is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard, Morty, then it slowly fades, leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. I did it. Your parents are gonna do it. Break the cycle, Morty. Rise above. Focus on science"
Your Whole Life Ahead of You
Rick: "You're young, you have your whole life ahead of you, and your anal cavity is still taut yet malleable."
Just Killed My Family
Morty: “I just killed my family! I don’t care who they were!”
Rick: “I dunno, some people would pay top dollar for that kind of breakthrough.”
Hitler Cured Cancer
Rick: "What about the reality where Hitler cured cancer, Morty? The answer is: Don't think about it."
Hot Girls
Beth: "He's not a hot girl. He can't just bail on his life and set up shop in someone else's."
Shotgun Penis
Jerry: “I wish that shotgun was my penis.”

The Best Music Anime of All Time
Tari Tari, Kids on the Slope, & Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad. If you've seen these shows, you know they have one thing in common- they're all about music, singing, playing in a band, or learning to play a musical instrument. With so many popular musical anime that exists today, we've decided to rank the best music anime of all time, with help from fans like you. The show doesn't have to be exclusively about music, since we've included shows like FLCL and Macross Frontier that blend a few different genres. If you're looking for an anime where the main character learns to play guitar, then definitely check out Beck (you won't be disappointed, it's an amazing coming of age story that blends in rock and roll music.) Other anime listed here feature chorus groups, and students learning music in high school. Vote for your favorite series on this list that you've seen, so the best stuff will be at the top of the list!

The Best Military Anime of All Time
A common theme among popular action anime is that some kind of military force or army is often the driving force behind the show's story. If you're a fan of these kind of plot lines, then help us vote on this list of the best military anime of all time. Many of the anime on this list revolves around the ranks of an army or military, including Code Geass, Full Metal Panic! and Strike Witches. However some of the shows listed here have a military in them, but don't strictly revolve around it. Full Metal Alchemist, for example, follows Edward Elrich and his journey to find the Philospher's Stone, all while showing him become a dog of the military and dealing with the higher ups that give him orders. The shows on this list include both older and new military anime, so vote for your favorites and watch them rise to the top! If one of your top anime about a military is missing, then please add it to the list so others can vote on it too.

The Best Cooking Anime of All Time
As if food in anime didn't already make your mouth water, here are the best cooking anime series of all time, ranked by anime fans like you. These anime focus on chefs and cooks are striving to be the best they can be in the kitchen, who will stop at nothing to make the most delicious food possible. The shows on this list are all about food, but they vary in what they specifically focus on. For example in Yumeiro Patissiere, Ichigo Amano focuses on sweets, pastries and deserts. On the other hand, there is Antique Bakery, where the four main characters create various breads in their bakery. Other shows are more broad, such as Cooking Master Boy, which tells the story of a boy who wants to be a chef that is talented in all areas of the kitchen. No matter what kind of food you're into, if you love cooking and anime, these are must-watch series for you! Vote for the ones you liked the best, and if you haven't seen all of these, then use this list as a guide in figuring out which series you should check out first. Also please add any cooking anime that are missing from the list if one of your favorites isn't here. Please note although Sanji is the image for this list, we didn't include One Piece because the show isn't exclusively about food. Sorry Sanji, you're still #1 in our hearts!

The Best DC Comics Animated Movies

The Best DC Comics Animated Movies

A list of the best DC animated feature length movies including new DC animated movies as well. These are feature length animated films based on DC comics such as Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern, characters that live within the DC Universe. In the 1990s, when live action movies based on DC Comics were in a slump, the Warner Bros' DC animation division took the reins, putting forth great quality animated films led by the likes of Paul Dini, Bruce Timm, and Alan Burnett. Today, animated films based on DC Comics are still popular. 
 

What are the best DC animated movies? Are the animated Batman movies like Batman: Under the Red Hood and Batman Beyond: The Return of the Joker your favorites? DC Comics is currently owned by DC Entertainment, which in turn is owned by Warner Bros. Entertainment. These may not be all the DC animated movies, but they are the greatest.
 

You may think this is a list of DC movies, but in fact it is list of DC animated movies only. So you won’t find the likes of The Dark Knight, or Man of Steel here, but you will for sure see all the Superman animated movies. Maybe once DC makes enough we can have a Justice League movies list.
