If you like Bill Plympton, check out his full length R rated 'I Married a strange Person'. Its very strange and while not for everyone, it deserves being watched at least once. I caught part of it on cable one night and finally hunted it down on amazon.com about 4 years later. Does anybody remember the sketch comedy show (with Wayne Knight amongst others) on FOX in the early 90's? I think it was called EDGE TV, but anyhoo they usually showed some of Plymptons shorts every week.
Another animated gem that has haunted me since childhood is UNICO, and having just recently figured out the name of that little unicorn I need to buy the DVDs. I Think there are 2.
Fantastic Planet found me more or less, over and over again. I would come home intoxicated as a teen and find it playing on PBS late at night. I think my most common reaction was WTF?? I later saw it in 'The Cell', and a friend knew what it was called, so I went and found a copy of my own.
