...senior VP of animation @ CN. www.ugo.com/channels/filmtv/features/thebatman/interview.asp"The difference is that I'm making superhero shows for kids. I want younger kids to love Batman. If the 25-year-old guys who live in their mother's basement also happen to like this Batman, that's great. But it's not for them. " [shadow=green,left,300]Thanks for posting this...I was going to do so yesterday. This guy is a suit with Cartoon Network..he has no direct creative control over the toon. Ironic that a CN rep would have something against adult animation lovers, since half of their programming is geared towards them...[/shadow]

I think we all agree that this guy is a money driven,egotistical wanker.Insults by the uninformed and ignorant are meaningless in my opinion. He should take a long,hard look at himself first,then again i'm sure he looks in the mirror quite a bit.

I still find it ironic that he works for Cartoon Network, a station that caters to adult animation fans, and has that attitude![/shadow]

So this the guy who is responsible for the really disgusting anime-inflected Teen Titans new look.
* Motions to Ace The Bat- Hound “Sick him”
This is what makes me sick. I read the whole interview and this guy comes across as clueless and arrogant. How does a guy in his position NOT know some of the things he says he does not know in the interview? Are all the suits at Cartoon Network like this?
Here’s a guy who pretends to care about Batman, but you can tell by his choice of words that he does not. He’s just doing his job and not very well I might add.
Well Sam, I’m 43 and I’ve been a Batman fan since before you were even born. I watched Adam West as Batman live, before it was ever on your Network. Sorry I’m not your target audience, but your target audience depends on people like me (fathers) to let them watch your shows and buy the merchandise that you get a piece of the action on, so maybe you had better stop to think about that before you speak again.
* Ace returns with Sam’s torn clothing in his mouth “Good Dog”

[shadow=red,left,300]Sammy boy, you not only stuck your foot in your mouth, put the rest of the leg as well.
Sam, how exactly did you get your job? And what's with all of the stains on the knees of your pants?[/shadow]
