REN & STIMPY |
|
It all began in the early 90's, when a scrawny, irritable chihuahua and his feeble-minded feline friend sat despondently on a streetcorner; tired, hungry and down to their last two bits. Suddenly, a long black limousine pulled up and a big-time Hollywood cartoon producer rolled down the window. "Hey, you two," he said. "I need a couple of real losers like you for my next project. How would you like to be stars?" The rest, as they say, is history. With their captivating pathos, intuitive comedic timing and complete lack of shame, Ren Hoëk and Stimpson J.Cat have ascended to the pantheon of animation immortals. John Kricfalusi, the "inventor" of Ren & Stimpy, is one of the most creative and imaginative animators alive. In my humble opinion he is the true successor to Tex Avery. The cel of Jimmy the Idiot Boy is not from a Ren & Stimpy cartoon, but from a Fanta Soda commercial, also made and designed by Kricfalusi.
