Adam West Was in a Batman Cartoon in 2023?

posted by whatsupbugs

Adam West is known for playing Batman in the original Batman television series. Although the series only lasted three seasons, Adam West continued being a part of various Batman projects up until his passing in 2017. He completed voice work for Batman vs. Two-Face before he passed. That film, which was released months after his passing, seemed to be the last Batman thing that he would ever be in. By the way, if you haven't seen Batman vs. Two-Face, I can't recommend it enough. It's an absolutely wonderful film. Anyways, Batman vs. Two-Face is no longer the last Batman project to have Adam West...

Frozen 2 Elsa and the Nokk Storybook Adventures Review

posted by whatsupbugs

The storybook carrying case

Frozen 2 Elsa and the Nokk Storybook Adventures is a Frozen 2 Lego set. It was a set that I was tempted to get as soon as I saw it, because of my love for collecting things of Elsa. However, I'm not the biggest fan of building Legos and the set was $20, so I kept passing on it. I kept considering it when I went to the store and saw it. Eventually, my love for Elsa motivated me to buy the set.

While Legos may not necessarily be my thing, Elsa is most certainly one of my favorite things. Because of that, it's always a thrill to add something to my ever-growing collection of her. Thankfully, this...

Favorite Blue's Clues Guest Star Roles

posted by whatsupbugs

Blue's Clues is a franchise that usually consists of a human host and a series of animals and talking objects voiced by voice actors. However, there have been some guest stars. For this article, I'll be mentioning my favorite guest stars from the Blue's Clues franchise. There have been three shows and two films, so there have been plenty of great guests over the years.

Ray Charles as G-Clef in Blue's Big Musical Movie

One of the most memorable aspects about the original Blue's Clues film is that legendary singer Ray Charles guest-voiced as a musical note named G-Clef. Ray Charles is one of the...

Blue's Big Musical Movie Information

posted by whatsupbugs

Blue's Big Musical Movie is the first Blue's Clues film. It was released on home video in 2000 and premiered on television in 2002.

The film was made during the time of the original series, so the film has the same cast as the original series. It was made while Steven Burns was still the host, so Steve is the host of the film. Donovan Patton hadn't been hired yet, so Joe doesn't appear in the film.

Steve is the only one of the human hosts to appear in both Blue's Clues films. He was the protagonist of Blue's Big Musical Movie and a supporting player in Blue's Big City Adventure.

The film is notable...

Blue's Clues Intros Ranked

posted by whatsupbugs

An intro is an important way of getting audiences excited for a piece of media. Over the years, the Blue's Clues franchise has had four unique intros. I will be ranking the intros from least favorite to favorite. Some seasons mildly tweaked the intros, but I'm only ranking the intros that are distinctly different from each other.

4. The first intro of the original series (used for the first four seasons of the original series)

Unlike the other intros, this intro doesn't have a song. The intro begins with a book that opens up to reveal the storybook world that Blue's Clues takes place in. The...

Blue's Big Change - The Cast

posted by whatsupbugs

I came up with an idea for a Blue's Clues film called Blue's Big Change. In a couple of my previous articles, I described what the film would be about. For this article, I'll be listing the cast that I would want for the film.

For my casting choices, I used cast members from the Blue's Clues series and movies to reprise their roles. I also included some celebrity casting choices, too. A majority of the film would take place shortly after the original Blue's Clues, so I used some celebrities for some of the roles that might need to be recast. However, if all of the original performers were able...

Frozen Collection Updates

posted by whatsupbugs

Frozen has been my favorite thing to collect for recently, especially when it comes to Elsa. My previous computer stopped working, so I had to get a new one. My new computer's been working well, but for the longest time, I didn't know how to take pictures on it. However, I've finally figured out how to do it, so I can share updates about my collection. I hope that you enjoy the pictures.

Thank you for all those who appreciate my collection and support me. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I'm honored, touched and happy to be friends with you. You are very cool people that help warm my heart.

Batman Actors Timeline (Live-Action)

Celebrating the 27th Anniversary of Blue's Clues

posted by whatsupbugs

In September of 1996, a show came around that ended up being an important part of so many people's childhoods. That show was Blue's Clues. Blue's Clues quickly became a fan-favorite show for a countless number of kids. Kids loved helping Steve find clues that were left by Blue. The show's colorful cast of talking objects, as well as the adorable Blue and the lovable Steve, made a huge impact on kids. Like all shows, the original Blue's Clues series couldn't go on forever. However, that didn't mean that the franchise had to end. To this day, the Blue's Clues franchise is still going on and is...

My First Book - Changed Ideas

posted by whatsupbugs

The first book that I worked on was The Past, Present and Future. I first came up with the idea in 2015 but didn't start writing it until 2019. I spent years thinking of ideas about the story. As time went on, the story changed a lot.

Initial idea:

Originally, The Past, Present and Future was going to have a male protagonist. In the story, the male protagonist met a girl around his age and became best friends with her. The two were good friends during their childhood and could have grown to be more. However, the female friend was murdered by her neighbor. After growing up to the age of a young...

Additional Blue's Clues Ideas

posted by whatsupbugs

If the Blue's Clues crew want to make further films, I have an idea that they could further develop into a feature film. My other film idea would take place after the previous films as opposed to Blue's Big Change which mostly took place between the original series and the reboot series. Because of that, the film would take place in the Blue's Clues & You! timeline and have Josh as the host (unless a new host has taken over as host by that time).

Blue's Big Family Reunion: Blue and Josh are excited that a big family reunion is going to be thrown at their place. The reunion will not only...

My Blue's Clues Movie Pitch (Short Version)

posted by whatsupbugs

So far, there have been two Blue's Clues films. The first was 2002's Blue's Big Musical Movie. It was the only film to be made for the original series. The second was 2022's Blue's Big City Adventure. This film was made for the Blue's Clues & You! reboot series. However, it also served as a nostalgic reunion for the cast of the original series, because Nick Balaban returned to voice Mr. Salt and the two hosts of the original series, Steve and Joe, joined Blue and the current host, Josh, on their adventure.

Blue's Big City Adventure was well received by fans of Blue's Clues. People who grew...

Every Batman Episode That Julie Newmar Appeared In

Three different actresses purred their way into the hearts of Batman fans as Catwoman in the 1960s. The first of the three actresses was Julie Newmar. Julie Newmar played Catwoman in the first two seasons of the original Batman television series. She was unavailable for Batman: The Movie, so Lee Meriwether took over the role. Julie Newmar was also unavailable for the third season, so Eartha Kitt took over the role.

Lee Meriwether's Appearances in the Batman Franchise

posted by whatsupbugs

Catwoman was originally played by Julie Newmar. Julie Newmar played Catwoman in two episodes of the first season of the Batman television series. However, Julie Newmar was busy during the production of the movie, so Lee Meriwether was brought in to play Catwoman. This led to Lee Meriwether becoming the first actress to play Catwoman in a film. Catwoman was one of the four main villains of the film.

Julie Newmar returned to play Catwoman in the show's second season and Eartha Kitt played Catwoman in the show's third season. However, that didn't mean that Lee Meriwether never got to appear in...

The Flash's Controversial Cameos Plus A Tribute

posted by whatsupbugs

The Flash is a film that I really like. I was hyped for it for such a long time, because of the return of Michael Keaton as Batman. In addition to being a very emotional, funny film for the titular hero, The Flash also gave Batman a chance to steal the show. The film had a number of other enjoyable elements, including Supergirl and General Zod.

For the most part, I love the film. However, there is an aspect of the film that I felt weird about ever since I first heard about it. That aspect is the film's series of cameos. Granted, there are some surprise cameos that are incredibly clever and...

Eartha Kitt's Appearances in Batman

Catwoman was originally played by Julie Newmar in the original Batman television. However, she wasn't available when the movie was being made, so Lee Meriwether got cast as the new Catwoman. Julie Newmar was able to come back for the show's second season, but she was unavailable for the third season. That led to Eartha Kitt becoming the third actress to play the character. Eartha Kitt played Catwoman in the third season of the series. Eartha Kitt was a very popular actress that had a unique style of acting. Her charming talents led to her giving a fresh, distinct take on Catwoman. Having to...

Reginald Denny's Appearances in the Batman Franchise

posted by whatsupbugs

Reginald Denny was an actor that worked a lot in silent films. A lot of his older work might not be known to today's audiences, but he later went on to guest star in Batman.

Reginald Denny appeared in two episodes of the first season of the Batman television series. He appeared in A Riddle a Day Keeps the Riddler Away and When the Rat's Away the Mice Will Play. He played King Boris, a royal man that was kidnapped by the Riddler. Any episode that had Frank Gorshin was destined to become a classic, because of what an amazing job Frank Gorshin did at playing the character. Being able to stand out...

King Tut is a villain that was created for the original Batman television series. He was played by Victor Buono. Victor Buono was one of the few actors that played a villain in a show to appear in all three seasons. The only other two were Cesar Romero's Joker and Burgess Meredith's Penguin.

1. The Curse of Tut
