I'm just going to come out and say it: I . I didn't want to. I was worried that it'd be disappointing. The original was brilliant, and the second was a very strong sequel, but the Tomatoes had me convinced that the third would be less-than-stellar. The third installment of the popular series didn't equal the first two, but it had more of what made the first two so enjoyable: adult humor.

Who doesn't love cartoons? We know we do. We particularly love rare and vintage toons. On the other hand, we're not a big fan of doctors and medicine, but we're still pretty jazzed about The Cartoon Medicine Show, a little event going down at the Mütter Museum Thursday and Friday night this week. The museum will be open for special evening hours beginning at 5:30PM, with a reduced entrance fee, and the screenings will begin at 8PM. Featured will be "a rich sampling of rarely screened animated medical cartoons from the 1920s to the 1960s," consisting of 10 to 15 shorts "by animators both obscure and well known, including Walt Disney, Friz Freleng, Zack Schwartz, Walter Lantz, and Shamus Culhane." A couple of medical historians will even be on hand to provide expert commentary, and that's bound to be interesting. This definitely sounds like a fun time! Plus, if you're into that kind of thing, you can stroll the museum before hand and check out all the creepy oddities they have on display.

Sometimes, it's too easy to make the obvious association. If you're already tired of Saumel L., scroll past the first two cities.

As we sit here amongst the ruins of what we should have done this weekend but never got to, we can't help but think: geez, we're lucky that our sister -ists are seemingly more organized than we!

Phillyist has often wondered...just how old is He-Man nemesis Skeletor? (We have lots of spare time on our hands.) On the one hand he has a skull for a face, so we figure he's got to be up there in age. On the other hand, you have to admit, he's got a fit, muscular physique (six-pack abs and all) which suggests he's still in the prime of his life. And then, of course, one has to consider the all-over blue skin. We have no idea what that means.
