National Geographic just made a list for their:
Top 10 Smelliest Animals
#10: Wolverines Reason: They release odor to mark territory or if frightened.
#9: Cows Reason: It’s estimated they can produce 250 to 440 liters of methane a day.
#8: Adelie Penguins Reason: They are capable of firing dung 1.3 feet. This is reportedly to help keep their feathers clean.
#7: Bombardier Beetles Reason: Can produce a boiling hot, noxious fluid if threatened.
#6: Turkey Vultures Reason: Releases a foul-smelling vomit if threatened and uses its urine to cool down.
#5: Stink Bugs Reason: If disturbed they can release a foul smelling odor under their wings and abdomen.
#4: Herrings Reason: Research suggests they communicate with each other by farting.
#3: Two-Toed Sloths Reason: Scientists have observed them eating out of an unflushed toilet.
#2: Musk Oxen Reason: During mating reason males produce a terrible smelling urine.
#1: Skunks Reason: Their musk is probably the worst smell thus far and it can linger for days.

Interesting list, Trey. #1 is kind of a no-brainer.

I don't know if anybody else saw this, but Doug Walker recently uploaded a video listing the Top 11 Movies/TV Shows that he will NEVER do on his Nostalgia Critic show:
#11 - Watership Down (1978) Reason: He really liked the movie. My Thoughts: I'm surprised he got this one requested a lot, because I thought a lot of people liked this movie. As for me, this is one of the Top 10 films I hate that everyone else seems to love.
#10 - A Goofy Movie (1995) Reason: He thought the film was okay. My Thoughts: I'm glad he's not gonna do this movie, because I really liked it.
#9 - Spider-Man (1994) Reason: He never watched the show. My Thoughts: I could care less.
#8 - Attack of the Killer Tomatoes (1978) Reason: This movie is supposed to be parodying how bad it is. My Thoughts: I wouldn't think of him to do this movie anyway, because he does 80's and 90's, not 70's.
#7 - Toys (1992) Reason: He doesn't know what to make of this film. My Thoughts: I never heard of this film, so I can't comment.
#6 - The Care Bears Nutcracker Suite (1988) Reason: The film wasn't released theatrically. My Thoughts: I had a feeling a lot of fans would bring this up.
#5 - Cats Don't Dance (1997) Reason: He found a lot of good things about this film. My Thoughts: I'm surprised a lot of people want him to review this movie, because I thought a lot of people loved this movie. I haven't seen it, but from what I saw in previews and such, it looked like the whole film was an acid trip.
#4 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (1993) Reason: James Rolfe already did it, so there's no point. My Thoughts: I don't see any point in him doing it either, but didn't he technically already review it?
#3 - The Brave Little Toaster (1987) Reason: He liked this movie a lot, although he might consider doing The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars (1998). My Thoughts: It's a shame, because I've been wanting him to do this movie.
#2 - Sonic X (2003) Reason: He didn't grow up watching this show. My Thoughts: It's not even old enough to be nostalgic. Besides, it's anime, and Doug doesn't like anime, let alone watch it.
#1 - Star Wars Episode I: The Phanom Menace (1999) Reason: Everybody else has already reviewed it. My Thoughts: I think it's best we keep it that way.

"Cats don't Dance" is not an 'acid trip.' It's a flick about the titular cats trying to make it in a 1930-1940s 'Golden Age' Hollywood with lot of humor playing off that and Hollywood in general (no wonder given its the lone animated film from Turner Studios, Ted's a sucker for the classic era). And yeah, it's a pretty slick film.

Yeah, I had the feeling it be you asking him to do "Brave Little Toaster", Belchic! ;3 Although, I will agree, Going to Mars would probably be worth a review (How come Sequels to Children Tales have a Sci-Fi Twist? "101 Dalmatians" got "Starlight Barking", now this!)
And wasn't #2, Anything to do with Sonicin general? Not just Sonic X?
And with #1, Yeah, That is right. Phantom Menace is just too easy of a target. I was talking to Kendra about this and I said, The Film has been criticised so many times, there's nothing NC could say in that review, that hasn't been said a thousand times before. ^^;
Although, with the CB ones, Well, not every film NC has done has been a Theatrical Release. Especially when he did Sequel Month, right?
Still, His Points seem fair and reasonable, so I respect that. What you think, Pups? *Hugs* X3

How come all the worst songs of the 1990s were the big hits? Hard to believe the Macarena wasn't #1, harder to believe there was a time when it was really, really cool.

Last year, VH1 did a countdown of the Top 100 greatest artists of all time, as chosen by other artists. These were the Top 25:
25. Chuck Berry 24. The Velvet Underground 23. AC/DC 22. The Clash 21. Bruce Springsteen 20. Marvin Gaye 19. U2 18. Pink Floyd 17. Queen 16. Madonna 15. The Beach Boys 14. Nirvana 13. The Who 12. David Bowie 11. Bob Marley 10. Stevie Wonder 9. James Brown 8. Elvis Presley 7. Prince 6. Jimi Hendrix 5. Bob Dylan 4. The Rolling Stones 3. Led Zeppelin 2. Michael Jackson 1. The Beatles
To anyone who is disappointed that their favorite artist didn't make that list, don't worry; I'm sure that artist may have shown up somewhere in the 100-26 area.
