Boop-Oop-a-Doop, y'all! I'm taking you WAY back with an OG animated gal for this week's cartoon highlight! 💃✨️
Betty Boop, one of the most iconic animated characters of the 20th century, was conceived in 1930 by Max Fleischer and animator Grim Natwick. Originally appearing in the cartoon "Dizzy Dishes," Betty was modeled after the flapper style and the singing talents of Helen Kane, a popular singer of the era known for her "boop-oop-a-doop" style of singing. Initially depicted as a canine character, Betty quickly evolved into a fully human form, becoming a symbol of the Jazz Age with her signature flapper dress, bobbed hair, and coquettish persona. Throughout the 1930s, she starred in a series of short films that highlighted her blend of innocence and sensuality, which often pushed the boundaries of the era's animation norms. Betty Boop's popularity waned in the late 1930s due to the enforcement of the Hays Code, which imposed stricter censorship rules on film content. Nevertheless, her legacy endures as a cultural icon, celebrated for her groundbreaking role in animation history and her lasting influence on popular culture.
Happy Memorial Day 💐✨️ A big thank you to those who have served and sacrificed for our country. I try to practice gratitude and appreciation in my daily life for all the opportunities and blessings I have as an American, but let it be known especially today that I am so grateful to our service members 🦅🇺🇲
Also, the pool opened up so that's cool 😎 👌 🏊♀️
POV: I just basically gave you a dissertation on the history and evolution of character design and animation in TV and film, and am waiting for your standing ovation or at least a cookie, please 🍪

Wanna know something about ✨️colors✨️?
The history of color in animation dates back to the early 20th century, evolving significantly over the decades. The first notable use of color was in the 1917 short film "The Gulf Between," which utilized the Technicolor process. However, widespread adoption began with Walt Disney's "Flowers and Trees" in 1932, the first animated short to use the full-color three-strip Technicolor process, which won an Academy Award. This breakthrough not only enhanced the visual appeal of animations but also set a new standard for the industry. As technology progressed, color techniques evolved from hand-painted frames to digital colorization, leading to the vibrant, richly hued animations seen today. Each advancement in color technology has allowed animators to more effectively convey mood, depth, and storytelling nuances, cementing color as a critical component of animated film artistry.
Stay animated 😘✨️

In the 1970s, he established an alternative to mainstream animation through independent and adult-oriented productions. His works "Fritz the Cat," "Heavy Traffic," and "Coonskin" shook up the animation industry with their gritty, and poignant commentary on urban American culture.

Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice! ✨️💙💖💚✨️ Yes, those are the ingredients that made me, Roxi! But when you add Chemical X in the mix, you get this week's cartoon character highlight:
✨️The Powerpuff Girls✨️, created by Craig McCracken, originated from his time at the California Institute of the Arts in the early 1990s. McCracken initially drew three characters, inspired by his interest in both superheroes and the cuteness of Japanese animation. These sketches eventually led to the creation of Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, the iconic trio known as the Powerpuff Girls.
The first pilot episode, "Whoopass Stew!", was created in 1992 during McCracken's time in college. However, it wasn't until 1998 that the show was picked up by Cartoon Network, with the pilot being reworked into what would become the beloved series' debut episode.
Premiering on November 18, 1998, the Powerpuff Girls TV show quickly gained popularity for its unique blend of action, humor, and girl power. The show followed the adventures of the three kindergarten-aged girls, who also happened to be superheroes, as they fought villains and protected their city, Townsville, from various threats.
Over the years, the Powerpuff Girls franchise expanded with merchandise, video games, and a theatrical film. The original series ran until 2005, but the legacy of the Powerpuff Girls endured, with occasional specials and a reboot in 2016.
In the reboot, the Powerpuff Girls maintained their core characteristics but received updates to fit contemporary sensibilities. The animation style evolved, and new villains were introduced alongside modern themes, ensuring the franchise remained relevant to new generations of viewers while still honoring its roots.
Happy Monday✨️ What are your go-to pick-me-ups when you're just not feelin' it? For me, it's coffee, a couple hours of myvfavorite video games, or impulse purchasing action figures I don't need lol.

Are we still doing Woman Crush Wednesdays? Because today it's all about this classic anime protagonist Lum the Invader Girl! 👽✨️🛸 Lum is a central character in the Japanese manga and anime series "Urusei Yatsura," created by Rumiko Takahashi. She is an alien from the planet Oniboshi, recognizable by her tiger-striped bikini and horns, with the ability to fly and emit powerful electric shocks. Lum mistakenly believes that Ataru Moroboshi, a lecherous and unlucky high school student, has proposed marriage to her after he accidentally grabs her horns instead of the tag in a game of tag that decides Earth’s fate. Lum is deeply in love with Ataru and refers to him as "Darling," but often becomes jealous and zaps him with electricity when he flirts with other girls. Her character is a blend of traditional feminine attributes and assertive, sometimes aggressive, traits which made her an iconic and beloved figure in the world of manga and anime. Lum's presence brings chaos, comedy, and a touch of romance to the series, making it a classic in the genre.

Spot the difference? I didn't think so 😎 I've been playing the most recent TOMB RAIDER 1-3 remakes, and I forgot how challenging these old platformers used to be! 😂 Lemme give you a little history of this iconic series: The Tomb Raider series, created by Core Design and initially released in 1996, follows the adventures of Lara Croft, an archaeologist-adventurer known for her acrobatic skills and intelligence. The franchise gained widespread acclaim for its groundbreaking gameplay, cinematic presentation, and iconic protagonist. Over the years, the series evolved, with numerous sequels, spin-offs, and reboots exploring Lara's origins, mythology, and personal journey. Crystal Dynamics took over development in 2006, rejuvenating the series with a gritty reboot in 2013, followed by several successful sequels. The franchise has expanded beyond video games to include movies, comics, and merchandise, solidifying Lara Croft's status as one of gaming's most enduring and influential characters.
