NewBe and Splendid Film, in collaboration with Nickelodeon Benelux, have announced the release one of the world's first-ever theatrical movie about slime!


Titled De Grote Slijmfilm, the movie will star Slime Queen Bibi in the lead role. Slime Queen Bibi is a popular actor who is well-known for her cheerful sketches and DIY slime making videos on YouTube.

Nickelodeon has been synonymous with slime since the number-one entertainment brand for kids introduced the green semi-viscous substance to kids in the 1980's, and Slime is the ultimate symbol of free-spirited mess and the physical embodiment of Nickelodeon's unconventional spirit.

In recent years, slime has become one of the hottest trends with kids around the world, with many videos on YouTube teaching children how to make their own slime. De Grote Slijmfilm will be first time a Dutch movie dedicated to the global slime trend. The adventurous family film is all about friendship, cheerfulness, creativity and slime - a lot of slime!

De Grote Slijmfilm will be released in Dutch cinemas on Wednesday 5th February 2020.

Update (14/1/2020) - To celebrate the release of De Grote Slijmfilm, Bibi will be taking over Nickelodeon during February 2020 with special afternoon marathons of her favourite Nick shows! It all starts Sunday 2nd February 2020 at 11:30 uur!

In De Grote Slijmfilm, Indy (Bibi) and her BFF Olivia (Rómeycia Valentine), like all children around the world, love slime! On international slime day they participate in a competition to make the most original slime. The only one who hates slime is Dominicus Duff (Géza Weisz), the country's biggest toy boss. He no longer sells any of his own toys because of slime's popularity, so he wants to ban and confiscate all the slime in the world. Will Indy and Olivia be able to save slime?

In addition to Bibi's leading role, De Grote Slijmfilm will also star: Géza Weisz (Wiplala, Alleen Maar Nette Mensen), YouTube star Djamila (Misfit 2), Vincent Visser (Brugklas, GTST) and Sarah Nauta (Elvy’s Wereld: So Ibiza!)

The winner of the Youth News Competition 2019, Rómeycia Valentijn, has taken on her very first acting job with her role in the film. Ferdi Stofmeel (De Regels van Floor), Tina de Bruin (Dokter Tinus, Het geheime dagboek van Hendrik Groen), Edson de Graça, comedian and presenter Willem Wever, Belgium actor Tine Embrechts, Belgium presenter Sarah Mouhamou and Nickelodeon star Kate Bensdorp (Evie in Hunter Street) will also feature in the movie.

De Grote Slijmfilm is directed by Hans Somers (Hart Beat, De Ludwigs, Hunter Street) and produced by NewBe in collaboration with Nickelodeon. Splendid Film will handle distribution in the Benelux region.

Via het YouTube en Instagram-kanaal ​De Grote Slijmfilm​ is exclusief beeldmateriaal te vinden en kan iedereen op de hoogte blijven van de film. De Grote Slijmfilm draait vanaf woensdag 5 februari in de Nederlandse bioscopen, de Belgische bioscopen volgen later in februari.

Exclusive footage from De Grote Slijmfilm and well as news and updates from the movie can be found on the film's official YouTube channel and Instagram page.

De Grote Slijmfilm will be screened in Dutch cinemas from Wednesday 5th February 2019, with a release in Belgian cinemas following later in the month.

Door slijm verkoopt hij zijn eigen speelgoed niet meer en daarom wil hij al het slijm in de wereld verbieden en in beslag nemen. Lukt het Indy en Olivia om slijm te redden?

Mexican voice-over actor Andrea Arruti, who voiced Sid Chang in the Latin American Spanish dub of The Loud House, has sadly passed away aged 21 due to respiratory complications.


The young Latina became a well-known voice actress after she brought life to the Spanish version of Elsa in the animated film Frozen, Diamond Tiara in My Little Pony, Neeko in Leauge of Legends, among other characters.

According to a published article in We Are Mitu, the Mexican actor died due to health complications that slowly weakened her body over the past few months, eventually causing her untimely death which caused sorrow to her fans.

The Mexican actor died on Friday, January 3, 2020, just days after the New Year began. Information about her death was not confirmed this week until some companies Arruti worked with expressed their condolences to the family. Her family then decided to share the news about her death to confirm her death and appease rumors revolving around the industry.

The family posted on her Facebook page: “On behalf of the family of Andy Arruti we extend a sincere thanks for the affection and solidarity after her death in a hospital in this city. After seeing some speculation about what happened, both in the media and in social networks, we want to point out that Andrea died due to a respiratory complication that weakened her body during the last months."

Moreover, the family also clarified that the Mexican actress was not involved in any form of addiction and that she was an exemplary person. On her Facebook page the family wrote, "Throughout this period it was sought for their well-being and was duly attended by specialists. For her part, she did everything in her power to meet her health status and fulfill her family, school and professional commitments in a normal way. Andrea was an exemplary person who had no addiction and those who knew her can realize that she was always a cheerful young woman."

"We appeal to your understanding at this difficult time and ask you in the most attentive way to allow us to take the duel remembering her as the luminous person she was."

The League of Legends where the Mexican actress worked with as a voice actor of Neeko also expressed their condolences through their Twitter account, "We regret the death of Andrea Arruti, who lent her voice to Neeko, and we extend our condolences to her loved ones," And people in the entertainment industry mourned and expressed also their condolences to the family of Andrea Arruti.

Arruti also worked in Phineas and Ferb as the voice actress of Brigette. She has been working in the entertainment industry for quite a long time. And her voice has been immortalized through different animated films and series.

Aside from acting, Arruti was a dancer and was seen collaborating with her sister Tamara Arruti who is also a respected dancer and choreographer. In the video below taken in 2018, the two sisters are seen dancing in unison.


Fans of the late Mexican actor lamented after hearing the news and remembered her as a cheerful and talented person. Her close friends and the people she worked with like actor Emilio Trevino, also shared loving messages.


Trivino wrote on his Twitter account, "Life undoubtedly surprises us in tough and unexpected ways, sometimes. I'll miss you a lot."

Emilio Treviño also paid tribute to Arruti on his Instagram account, saying, “No doubt sometimes life surprises us in strong and unexpected ways … look for a reason or why it is absurd because they are answers that we will never really have and I do not expect to have them. However, I think that today it is more important to remember all those beautiful things that I lived with you … because those are the ones that really matter at the end of everything.”

He added, “We grew up together … so many shared experiences and dreams that I don’t know where to start. Thank you for all the nights talking about our dreams and how we would reach them…Thank you for living with me a love story so unconditional, magical, sincere, fun and vulnerable when we recorded “Anne with an E” …. listening to you in each shot was very special for me. No doubt that character reflected much of you. You know you will always be my only and irreplaceable Anne❤️.”

UOB, Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia Team Up to Help Parents Discover and Develop Their Children’s Potential

UOB, Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia team up to help parents
discover and develop their children’s potential


Singapore, 26 December 2019– United Overseas Bank (UOB) today announced it was making it easier for parents to discover and to nurture their child’s true potential through a partnership with Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia that will enhance the UOB KidSmart Programme.

The first step in the UOB KidSmart Programme is for children to take an online test to identify their natural abilities based on eight types of intelligences1. The five-minute test, which is based on the MIDAS™ (Multiple Intelligences Development Scales) aptitude assessment tool2, gives parents deeper insight into the unique strengths of their child. In the three years since the UOB KidSmart Programme was launched, more than 20,000 children have taken the test to find out their natural talents. Parents have then used the test results to partner UOB on a financial plan to nurture the development of their child’s particular intelligences. This has resulted in a 44 per cent increase in the average savings balance of three in five parents whose children have taken the test3.

However, seven in 10 customers are not yet using insurance solutions to protect and to grow their financial assets4. To help bridge this gap and to ensure that the plans for their children can weather rainy days, UOB has partnered Prudential Singapore to add a suite of protection and endowment plans to the UOB KidSmart Programme. This way, families will be covered against unforeseen events and can still take care of their child’s developmental needs.

Also new to the UOB KidSmart Programme is the launch of the Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts. UOB and Nickelodeon Asia have paired the eight different intelligences under the MIDAS™ framework with some of the most well-loved Nickelodeon characters. For example, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ athleticism helps children understand what it means to be Body Smart; twin genie sisters Shimmer and Shine’s musicality and singing exemplify being Music Smart; Dora the Explorer’s love for the natural world embodies Nature Smart; while the rescue puppies from PAW Patrol represent People Smart through their close relationships with humans.

There will be online activities and on-ground activities and game booths at roadshows during school holidays, a statement said.

Ms Jacquelyn Tan, Head of Personal Financial Services Singapore, UOB, said, “UOB serves more than two in five5 young families6 in Singapore and from this experience we can see how parents strive to provide the best for their children. It is one of the reasons we created UOB KidSmart Programme three years ago and it is why we continue to enhance it by including like-minded partners such as Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia. By improving the way children identify their natural talents and helping parents protect and grow their wealth more holistically, we can ensure more Singaporean children reach their full potential.”

Mr Wilf Blackburn, CEO, Prudential Singapore, said, “We’re pleased to collaborate with our long-time bank partner, UOB and a new partner, Nickelodeon Asia to launch the Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts. This programme will help a child discover his potential and will help parents in planning better for their child’s future. It’s important to save and invest early for your child’s life milestones to give them a head start, as well as to put in place adequate medical and protection plans to buffer against life’s uncertainties.”


Ms Syahrizan Mansor, Vice President, Nickelodeon Asia, ViacomCBS Networks International said, “Kids always come first for Nickelodeon so naturally, making the world a more playful place is our mission. We want kids to explore their creativity so the Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts - in partnership with UOB and Prudential Singapore - is one way of incorporating play and Nickelodeon characters to help kids discover their abilities. We want kids to feel encouraged and empowered to find out more about their strengths through Nickelodeon-themed activities. For example, kids who have an affinity to nature and animals may identify as ‘Nature Smart’ through our microsite and align with Dora The Explorer, and will hence be drawn to activities that relate to the great outdoors and an adventurous spirit, to help them achieve their goals.”

In addition to the MIDAS™ assessment tool, the UOB KidSmart Programme website at www.uob.com.sg/kidsmart features an online financial goal planner to help parents chart a suitable financial plan to support their children’s development. Parents can also access deals for a range of enrichment activities for their children linked to the different types of intelligences. Children are encouraged to discover more about their intelligences through Smart task sheets found on the Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts microsite atwww.nickelodeon.com/academyofsmarts. Nickelodeon Asia, Prudential Singapore and UOB have organised a series of activities as part of their year-long partnership. For example, in 2020, UOB Wealth Banking customers will be able to enrol their children in exclusive masterclasses held at selected UOB Wealth Banking Centres. The children will be able to explore their intelligences through activities such as creating stop motion videos, augmented reality clips and digital music.

– Ends –

1 The eight intelligences are Body Smart (Kinesthetic); Logic Smart (Logical Mathematical); Music Smart (Musical); Nature Smart (Naturalist); People Smart (Interpersonal); Picture Smart (Spatial); Self Smart (Intrapersonal); and Word Smart (Linguistic).

2 Created by Dr Branton Shearer in 1987, the MIDAS tool is based on the theory of multiple intelligences developed by Dr. Howard Gardner (Hobbs professor of cognition and education, Harvard Graduate School of Education)

From The Straits Times:

Discover and support your children’s talents with the UOB KidSmart Programme

Set your kids on the right path to help them boost their natural talents and to maximise their potential

Parental support is crucial in helping to nurture and to develop a child’s talent. But how does one begin?

For many parents in Singapore, it involves an “all-in” approach of exposing their children to a plethora of enrichment classes and activities to cover as many aspects of growth as possible. However, this approach may not work for all as every child learns and grows differently.

THE UOB KIDSMART PROGRAMME

United Overseas Bank (UOB) wants to make it easier for parents to identify their children’s individual talents, as financial planning plays a crucial role in supporting their children’s growth and development.

The bank recently partnered with Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia to enhance the UOB KidSmart Programme with the Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts.

The Nickelodeon Academy of Smarts is an activity-based programme which includes an online assessment tool to help identify each child’s unique smarts, as well as a series of task sheets designed around popular Nickelodeon characters that children can relate to.

These task sheets can help parents observe how their children naturally learn and shine in certain areas.

DISCOVERING YOUR KIDS’ SMARTS

First, parents can identify their children’s strengths through a complimentary MIDAS online assessment.

Specially developed for the UOB KidSmart Programme, this assessment measures each child across distinct forms of intelligence, termed the eight “smarts” — Body, Logic, Music, Nature, People, Picture, Self and Word.

Each “smart” that a child scores highly in represents an area of intelligence that they naturally gravitate towards.

Once parents have completed the MIDAS online assessment, they can download task sheets corresponding to their child’s “smarts”.

Each task sheet is tied to a particular “smart” and associated characters from well-loved Nickelodeon shows.

For instance, the Music Smart task sheet is associated with Nickelodeon television series Shimmer and Shine. Like the twin genie sisters Shimmer and Shine, children who are “music smart” are able to think in sounds, rhythms, melodies and rhymes. On the other hand, the lovable puppies of PAW Patrol which have close relationships with humans will connect with children who are “people smart” as they are able to understand how others think and feel.

The task sheets incorporate hands-on activities that children can complete with their family. These include arts and crafts, personal projects, and physical exercises that help kids explore their smarts.

ENABLING PARENTS TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS

For parents, the enhanced UOB Kidsmart Programme offers not only insight into their children’s natural talents, but also an opportunity to ensure that they learn and develop holistically.

Together with Prudential Singapore, UOB also offers insurance and other financial solutions to help parents plan for their children’s growth and education.

Ms Jacquelyn Tan, head of Personal Financial Services, UOB, says: “As UOB serves more than two in five young families in Singapore, we can see how parents strive to provide the best for their children.

“It is one of the reasons we created the UOB Kidsmart Programme three years ago and it is why we continue to enhance it by including like-minded partners such as Prudential Singapore and Nickelodeon Asia.

“By improving the way children identify with their natural talents and helping parents protect and grow their wealth more holistically, we can ensure more Singaporean children reach their full potential.”

Get started with the MIDAS online assessment tool on www.uob.com.sg/kidsmart and visit www.nickelodeonasia.com/academyofsmarts to download the task sheets.

AS PART OF THEIR YEAR-LONG PARTNERSHIP, UOB, PRUDENTIAL SINGAPORE AND NICKELODEON ASIA ARE ORGANISING A SERIES OF ROADSHOWS. CHILDREN CAN PARTICIPATE IN FUN GAMES AND ACTIVITIES AT THESE ROADSHOWS AND COMPLETE THE FINAL TASKS IN THEIR TASK SHEETS TO RECEIVE CORRESPONDING NICKELODEON CHARACTER PINS.

Nickelodeon Latin America (Latinoamérica) has revamped Noggin, the network's top-ranked video subscription service for preschoolers!


The latest version of the service, which continues to offer premium content for preschool aged children, allowing them to learn whilst playing, is now available for users in Latin America and Brazil to download via the Google Play Store (Android), Apple App Store (iOS). Subscribers can also access NOGGIN through the Noggin website. Noggin is also available through cable, internet and mobile phone operators throughout the region.

With a new dynamic interface and friendly browsing experience that includes fan-favourite Nick Jr. characters, the ad-free service also features "Garden Academy", a new and exclusive section of NOGGIN that has been created by Nickelodeon in collaboration with the Ecuadorian of the prestigious Swiss academy The Bénédict International Language School. “Garden Academy” offers an English curriculum for preschoolers through new activities and characters.

In addition, the new version of Noggin has incorporated new educational games, a section for music videos, as well as interactive videos that invite children to have fun with their favorite characters by touching and sliding the screen, or even speaking to foster learning experiences that promote science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM) and socio-emotional skills.

Since the launch of the application, Noggin has experienced continuous growth in terms of its subscriber base - including 100,000 subscribers in México alone - and has continued to double the number of programs and episodes available on the platform year-on-year (YoY).

Además, Noggin ha incorporado nuevos juegos educativos, una sección de videos musicales, así como también videos interactivos que invitan a los niños a divertirse con sus personajes favoritos tocando y deslizando la pantalla, o incluso hablando para fomentar experiencias de aprendizaje que promueven la ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería, las matemáticas y las habilidades socioemocionales.

Desde el lanzamiento de la aplicación, Noggin ha experimentado un crecimiento continuo en términos de su base de suscriptores y ha duplicado la cantidad de programas y episodios disponibles año tras año.

Noggin, el streaming de Nickelodeon para los más pequeños de la casa

La plataforma de Nick Jr. se enfoca en los niños de 0 a 6 años y en ella pueden aprender inglés, ver capítulos de programas como Paw Patrol y jugar.

Noggin mezcla contenido didáctivo y de entretenimiento para desarrollar habilidades como el trabajo en equipo, gusto por las matemáticas y la ciencia y la resolución de problemas. (Cortesía: Noggin)

Paw Patrol, Dora la Exploradora y Blue formarán parte de la oferta de Noggin, la plataforma de streaming de Nick Jr. que quiere conquistar a los más pequeños ofreciendo no solo los capítulos de las series, sino juegos y actividades educativas por 49 pesos al mes.
ADVERTISING

La firma realizó un estudio en diversos países y determinó que lo que los papás quieren para los niños de menos de seis años es que sus hijos accedan a un producto mucho más educativo y por ello esta plataforma opta por tener un 70% de contenido y 30% de educación y entretenimiento.

Entre las actividades que los pequeños pueden tomar está The garden academy, una sección con 40 episodios diseñados para que los niños aprendan inglés a través de actividades interactivas. Y es justo esta interfaz didáctica la que diferencia a Noggin de otras plataformas como Disney+, Netflix y Apple TV+, que también se han enfocado en la creación de contenido infantil .

“Somos el productor más grande de contenidos para el mundo de preescolar y necesitábamos tener un producto que se diferenciara mucho de Nick Jr. y Nickelodeon (...) Vemos la industria muy competida, más en el mercado de adultos porque hay muchas plataformas, pero en este mundo sí tenemos una oportunidad de ser los líderes”, indicó Eduardo Lebrija, director general para Latinoamérica Norte y VP senior de Ad Sales Panregional en ViacomCBS Networks Americas.

Uno de los competidores directos de esta oferta de endutaiment es YouTube Kids, la app diseñada para niños de entre 2 y 8 años. La plataforma para los más pequeños fue creada para asegurarse de que el contenido que los pequeños ven es seguro y familiar.

De acuerdo con Statista, el 64% de los niños entre 2 y 5 años y el 78% de los de 6 a 11 años utilizan una tablet y YouTube es la aplicación más usada para ver videos en línea. La plataforma de videos de Google cuenta con canales como Chuchu TV Nursery y El Reino infantil que cuentan con 30.5 y 29.2 millones de suscriptores.

Respecto a Disney+, aún sin fecha de llegada para el mercado mexicano, el ejecutivo dijo que la estrategia de ambas compañías es distinta.

“Lo de Disney+ es muy interesante porque siendo el líder en su nicho vimos cómo le quitó oferta a otras plataformas de contenido. La estrategia de Noggin no es la misma. Contando a Disney, en preescolar tenemos más y mejor contenido en el sentido de lo que ofrecemos a los más pequeños”, agregó.

Noggin ya cuenta con 100,000 suscriptores en México, pero su apuesta para el mercado mexicano es crecer en doble dígito en suscriptores y aumentar el número de exhibidores. Actualmente,la plataforma puede descargarse de la Play Store y la App Store. Además, a lo largo del 2020 se podrá ver en Total Play, Cinepolis Klic y Roku.

Pero el contenido de Nickelodeon para niños mayores continuará exhibiéndose en la aplicación de Paramount+ y también se producirán nuevas películas animadas y series animadas para Netflix .

From Xataka México:

Noggin, el servicio de streaming de Nick Jr se renueva en México: 1500 episodios para niños por 49 pesos al mes

Noggin inició como un canal de televisión en 1999 dirigido para el público pre-escolar de entre los 3 y 6 años y para 2015 decidieron dar el salto a una plataforma totalmente digital que recibe un “lavado de cara”. La empresa anunció que su nueva interfaz será mucho más amigable, además de estar acompañada de los personajes más importantes de Nick Jr.

En Xataka México tuvimos la oportunidad de charlar con Eduardo Lebrija, director general para Latinoamérica norte y vicepresidente senior de ad sales panregional en ViacomCBS Networks Americas para que nos cuenta un poco más de los cambios en la plataforma y del contenido que estrenarán como parte de las novedades.

El cambio más grande de la actualización radica en el cambio de imagen, donde la interfaz será más sencilla y práctica para cualquier usuario. Actualmente cuentan con más de 1,000 episodios que catalogan como “icónicos” de la biblioteca completa, aclarando que existe contenido adicional como videos cortos, musicales o contenido educativo que se actualiza semanalmente.

Una de las adiciones más interesantes es ‘Garden Academy’, un programa que señalan fue diseñado para enseñar inglés a los más pequeños, por medio de contenido y actividades interactivas, el programa cuenta con 40 diferentes episodios.

Hablando de los contenidos interactivos, Lebrija nos comentó que se incorporó nuevos juegos educativos, además de una sección de videos musicales y un apartado donde los personajes más populares de la plataforma invitan a los menores a interactuar en diferentes videos.

“El contenido interactivo que ofrece Noggin permite a los niños interactuar tocando y deslizando la pantalla, o incluso hablando para fomentar experiencias educativas que promueven la ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería, las matemáticas y las habilidades socioemocionales.”

Respecto al contenido creado para menores, preguntamos si en realidad existen estudios que respalden el contenido y que demuestren que puedan ser educativos, ante eso nos mencionó que en 2018 Nickelodeon lanzó una encuesta, donde el 48% de los entrevistados pidieron más contenido educacional en la plataforma y señala que todo ese contenido es creado por expertos que cuentan con más de 30 años de experiencia en educación preescolar.

Entre sus series más populares se encuentran programas como ‘Paw Patrol’, ‘Dora y sus amigos: Into the City!’, ‘Blaze y los Monster Machines’ y ‘Rusty Rivets’.
Por el momento el servicio solo se encuentra disponible con una aplicación para iOS y Android, con un precio de 49 pesos al mes, pero también se puede ver por medio del navegador de internet y de algunos operadores de cable. Entre sus planes, esperan que durante 2020 la aplicación pueda llegar a Roku, Android TV y hasta en libros electrónicos.

Actualmente Noggin es definido por la empresa como el servicio de suscripción de video sin publicidad de Nick Jr en México, ofreciendo el contenido más popular del canal, con la posibilidad que lo pueden ver en cualquier momento y sin interrupciones.

'Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story' Documentary to Receive World Premiere at 2020 Sundance Film Festival

The Sundance Institute has announced that the 2020 Sundance Film Festival will host the world premiere of Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story, a brand new documentary exploring the rise and fall of the groundbreaking animated series The Ren & Stimpy Show and its controversial creator, John Kricfalusi - whose abusive relationship with an underage woman destroyed his once-celebrated career - through archival footage, show artwork and interviews with the artists, actors and executives behind the show.

Update (1/18/2020) - Deadline has released a sneak peek from the documentary, which you can watch on Deadline.com.


“It’s wild and disturbing,” said Sundance director John Cooper. “It’s not trying to make the show separate from the creator. That’s what we hoped to see in it.”


From production industry veterans Ron Cicero and Kimo Easterwood, Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story is a crowdfunded documentary that has been in development for a couple of years, before Ralph Bakshi acolyte Kricfalusi's highly inappropriate behavior came to light. When the docu was first pitched, it was set to "delve deep into the world of Ren the rage-fueled chihuahua and Stimpy the simpleton cat. The filmmakers’ goal is to show that the creativity that fueled the animated series is akin to the intrepid genius and controversial merit of Banksy and Warhol."

Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story is produced by Ron Cicero, and features the cast of: John Kricfalusi, Robyn Byrd, Vanessa Coffey, Chris Reccardi, Richard Pursel, and Bobby Lee.

Ren & Stimpy premiered on August 11, 1991 as one of the original Nicktoons, alongside Rugrats and Doug, and followed the chaotic adventures of a psychotic Chihuahua (Marland “Ren” T. Höek) and dimwitted Cat (Stimpson “Stimpy” J. Cat). The series ran on Nickelodeon for 5 seasons and spawned the spin-off Ren & Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon in 2003.


The 2020 Sundance Film Festival takes place between Jan 23 - Feb 2, 2020 in Park City, Utah. For more information, visit: https://www.sundance.org.

From sundance.org:

Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story

In the early 1990s, the animated show Ren & Stimpy broke cable ratings records and was a touchstone for a generation of fans and artists. Creator John Kricfalusi was celebrated as a visionary, but even though his personality suffused the show, dozens of artists and network executives were just as responsible for the show’s meteoric rise. As Kricfalusi’s worst impulses were let loose at the workplace and new allegations about even more disturbing behavior have surfaced, his reputation now threatens to taint the show forever.

With clips recognizable to any Ren & Stimpy fan and interviews with Kricfalusi and his fellow creators whose work has been both elevated and denigrated by their connection to him, this film is a complex look at a show that influenced the history of television, animation, and comedy. More than a celebration, Happy Happy Joy Joy - The Ren & Stimpy Story forces us to consider the role of media creators and how we reckon with the reality of who they are versus what we see on the screen.

From Deadline:

‘Happy Happy Joy Joy’ Clip: First Look At ‘Ren & Stimpy’ Documentary Headed To Sundance


EXCLUSIVE: How to describe The Ren & Stimpy Show, that bizarre, you-had-to-be-there ’90s animated series that carved a niche for itself on the kid-friendly Nickelodeon channel without being all that kid-friendly itself? (Well, depending on what kind of kid you were…)

In this exclusive clip from the upcoming Sundance Film Festival documentary Happy Happy Joy Joy, comics (including Bobby Lee) and fans try to describe the outrageous, grotesque and very funny series in one sentence. One or two come close.

Premiering at this month’s Sundance as part of the Documentary Premieres section, Happy Happy Joy Joy (a catchphrase from the series) is co-directed by Ron Cicero and Kimo Easterwood, who set themselves the task of illuminating “the joy, beauty, and lasting impact of Ren & Stimpy” while also examining the cartoon’s creator John Kricfalusi, a man described as a brilliant animator and storyteller as well as a deeply flawed person. Press materials for the documentary say Kricfalusi “both caused and experienced trauma that deeply affected his work and relationships.”

Through archival footage, show artwork, and interviews with the artists, actors, and executives behind the show, Happy Happy Joy Joy explores what happens when “artistic genius goes awry.”

Written and directed by Cicero and Easterwood, Happy Happy Joy Joy is exec produced by Cicero, with Easterwood as director of photography. Kevin Klauber produces.

The doc will have its press and industry screening January 24 at the Park Avenue Theatre before its world premiere Tuesday, January 28 at the Library Center Theatre.

Check out the exclusive clip [on Deadline.com].

on Nickelodeon South East Asia

Share it: @NickAsia @allthat (Instagram) #allthat


Nickelodeon South East Asia premiered All New All That, a revival of the Nickelodeon's iconic '90s sketch series featuring a talented and diverse group of comedians who reflect the spirit and humor of today’s generation of kids, on Saturday 11th January 2020 at 18:30 (SG/PH)!

Ranging in age from 12-15, each new All That cast member brings their own unique comedic skill to the show, from impressions of today’s biggest celebrities, to original characters inspired by their lives, to physical comedy sketches, revitalizing the series for today's audience. New original comedic sketches include “Cancelled with Nathan,” Bed, Bath & Beyoncé” and “Marie Kiddo.” Executive produced by original cast members Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, All That will air regularly weekends at 18:30 (SG/PH) on Nickelodeon South East Asia.


The new Kids of Comedy are:

· Ryan Alessi– Born and raised in Chicago, Ryan Alessi, 14, began studying improv comedy at age eight with The Second City Improvisational Comedy Troupe. After moving to Los Angeles, he started studying with The Groundlings and developing his own characters and performing various impressions and accents.

· Reece Caddell– A Denver native, Reece Caddell, 12, started acting at the age of five and began performing sketch comedy when she started a YouTube channel with her two older sisters.

· Kate Godfrey– Kate Godfrey, 15, is an actress, singer and dancer from Scottsdale, Ariz. She began her career in her local community theater at the age of nine and was quickly accepted to the Broadway Youth Ensemble where she performed in New York City.

· Gabrielle Green– Gabrielle Green, 14, moved to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career after studying theatre at BAK Middle School of Performing Arts in West Palm Beach, Fla. Her credits include acting, voiceover work and working as a brand representative.

· Nathan Janak– Originally from Sugar Land, Texas, Nathan Janak, 14, began acting at six years old. In 2016, he participated in a nine-month intensive actor training program and later moved to Los Angeles. Janak has previously been seen as a guest star in Nickelodeon’s Henry Danger.

· Lex Lumpkin– Lex Lumpkin, 13, is an actor, singer, writer, impressionist and pianist from Indianapolis. His acting career began two years ago when he played the role of “Stuart” in the Indianapolis Repertory Theater’s production of Stuart Little.

· Chinguun Sergelen– Raised in Chicago, Chinguun Sergelen, 13, began acting at age nine. He is a Youth Ensemble member at The Second City Training Center Chicago and Laugh Out Loud Theater.

· Aria Brooks– Joining the cast for the second half of the new season will be Aria Brooks from Atlanta, Georgia. Brooks’ career is on the rise. She plays a younger version of Harriet Tubman in the upcoming film Harriet and will be featured in Netflix’s Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings anthology.

Shot in front of a live studio audience, this season of All That will see beloved roles are reprised in some of the series’ most memorable sketches including Mitchell as Good Burger's "Ed"; and Denberg as “Ms. Hushbaum,” the hypocritical “Loud Librarian.”

The season will also feature musical performances from today’s hottest artists, including JoJo Siwa, Young Dylan, Ciara, H.E.R., Ella Mai, Ally Brooke, Kane Brown, Bryce Vine, Daddy Yankee and CNCO, with surprise guests from the worlds of TV, film, comedy and more. The series will also host a Zoey 101 reunion, which will see Jamie Lynn Spears with fellow Zoey 101 castmates Paul Butcher, Sean Flynn, Kristin Herrera, Chris Massey, Erin Sanders and Matthew Underwood in an all-new version of the sketch “Thelma Stump.” Shot in Los Angeles, Calif. in November 2019, the new sketch features Spears reprising her role as the bacon-loving bodyguard who attempts to stop the All That cast members and stars of Zoey 101 from entering the set.

The series also features a appearance from Alisa Reyes, who, along with Mitchell, Thompson, Denberg and Server, helped make the original series a ‘90s icon for an entire generation of kids.

The show's iconic '90s theme song, "All That", performed by TLC also makes a welcome return.

All That was Nickelodeon’s longest running live-action series with 171 episodes across 10 seasons from 1994 to 2005. The franchise paved the way for a number of successful spinoffs, including: Kenan & Kel, The Amanda Show and The Nick Cannon Show; the feature-length film Good Burger; as well as audio recordings, books, festival tours, and numerous reunions celebrating the show’s impact on pop culture. All That was created by Brian Robbins and Mike Tollin.

All That helped launch the careers of comedy stars including Kenan Thompson, Amanda Bynes and Nick Cannon, and has featured musical guests and guest stars including Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Usher, Ray Romano (Everybody Loves Raymond), Brittany Snow, and Tia and Tamera Mowry from Sister, Sister.

All That is executive produced by Kenan Thompson (All That, Kenan & Kel, Good Burger, Saturday Night Live), Kel Mitchell (All That, Kenan & Kel, Good Burger, Sam & Cat, Game Shakers) and Kevin Kay (All That, SpongeBob SquarePants, Lip Sync Battle, Lip Sync Battle Shorties, Yellowstone). Jermaine Fowler (Superior Donuts, Sorry to Bother You) serves as a consulting producer. Production of All That for Nickelodeon is overseen by Shauna Phelan, Senior Vice President, Live-Action Scripted Content.

The All New All That made its world premiere on Nickelodeon USA on Saturday, June 15, at 8:30 p.m. (ET/PT).

NICKELODEON GETS SET
FOR RETURN OF ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK?

New Three-Part Limited Series Event Premieres This January on Nickelodeon Poland

Share it: @NickelodeonPolska #AreYouAfraidoftheDark


Nickelodeon is preparing for the return of The Midnight Society with the all-new Are You Afraid of the Dark? three-part limited series event. Based on the ‘90s kids’ cult classic, and reimagined for a new generation, Are You Afraid of the Dark? part one of Are You Afraid of the Dark? will debut on Nickelodeon Poland (Polska) on Saturday 11th January 2020 at 19:35, with Parts 2 and 3 airing on Saturday 18th and Saturday 25th January 2020! The series is titled Czy Boisz Sie Ciemności in Poland.

Across the three hour-long episodes, Are You Afraid of the Dark? will follow members of an entirely new Midnight Society, who tell a terrifying tale of the Carnival of Doom and its evil ringmaster Mr. Tophat, only to witness the shocking story come frightfully to life. In the just-released trailer, viewers meet the new members of the Midnight Society, get a glimpse at the uncertainty that awaits and prepare for an adventure beyond their wildest nightmares.

In Part One, "Submitted For Approval", tormented by nightmares, the new girl in school feels and out of place until a mysterious group invites her to join. All she has to do is tell a truly terrifying story.

In Part Two, "Opening Night", when a friend's disappearance seems to be linked to Rachel's story, the Midnight Society decides to attend the Carnival of Doom. Is it the same carnival from her nightmares? How?

In Part Three, "Destroy All Tophats", with her friends' lives at stake, Rachel decides to take charge and end Mr. Tophat's reign of terror. Will the story have a happy ending, or is the Midnight Society doomed?


The new members of the Midnight Society are: Rachel, played by Lyliana Wray (Top Gun: Maverick); Gavin, played by Sam Ashe Arnold (Best.Worst.Weekend.Ever.); Akiko, played by Miya Cech (Rim of the World, Always Be My Maybe); Graham, played by Jeremy Taylor (IT: Chapter Two, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween); and Louise, played by Tamara Smart (Artemis Fowl, The Worst Witch). The Carnival of Doom’s ringmaster, Mr. Tophat, is played by Rafael Casal (Blindspotting).

Are You Afraid of the Dark? is produced by ACE Entertainment (To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, The Perfect Date) with ACE founder Matt Kaplan and Spencer Berman serving as executive producers. The series is written by BenDavid Grabinski (Skiptrace, Happily) and directed by Dean Israelite (Power Rangers movie, Project Almanac), both of whom are also executive producers. Chris Foss is also an executive producer.

One of the Nickelodeon’s most iconic series from the ‘90s, the original Are You Afraid of the Dark? delivered riveting stories of horror to young audiences, all from a kid’s perspective. Are You Afraid of the Dark? is owned by DHX and was created by D.J. MacHale and Ned Kandel, who are also executive producers on the project.

Are You Afraid of the Dark? made its world premiere on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Friday, Oct. 11, at 7:00 p.m. (ET/PT), as part of the network's Halloween programming highlights.
