Top Hat Sasquatch

I got an email from Disney Living about a new product, and the name immediately had me reaching for the delete button, but when I googled Disney’s new Pook-a-Looz plush toys, I was overwhelmed with cuteness.

The Pook-a-Looz are quirky, handmade-looking plush toys based on Disney, Pixar, and Muppet characters. They’re supposed to be fairly cheap, thus fodder for collectors. The Buzz and Woody are kind of fantastic and I’ll probably pick those up for the office. The official promotional video is a little odd, but then again so are the toys.

Warner Bros. made their fair share of feature length mashups using classic Looney Tunes cartoons and some new filler animation in between. Bugs Bunny’s Easter Funnies is exactly that, a collection of shorts weaved into a new sublot where Bugs has to fill in for the Easter Bunny when he falls ill.

If you’re like me, you’ve always wondered where the Easter Bunny came from, and most who’s better to explain that to us than Burl Ives? Thats about what The First Easter Rabbit from Rankin/Bass Productions is, and thats fine by me.

I wasn’t around for the first airing of The First Easter Rabbit on TV, and I never remember seeing it in reruns, but I’m sure a lot of you remember it. Basically, it’s a short tale of a girl with a stuffed rabbit named Stuffy. A fairy decides that people need a symbol for Easter so they can remember when it is (no joke), so she turns Stuffy into The Easter Rabbit.

New Muppet viral video. Bunnies get eaten.

I haven’t posted any of the Muppet viral videos mainly because I didn’t think I needed to add another post to your RSS reader with the same video, but this one is weird and cool enough that I don’t care. Watch it three times.
