Uncategorized "Simon's Cat" comes back in "Fly Guy"
Posted by Curt Holman @Curt_Holman on Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 8:22 PM
I know cat-based Youtube viral videos are the biggest cliche of the decade, but I thoroughly enjoy the "Simon's Cat" animated shorts by English animator Simon Tofield. As an animator, Tofield has an appealingly simple, deadpan style, and as a pet owner, he's clearly a close observer of feline behavior. The newest one, "Fly Guy," went up on July 24, and though it's not quite as funny-ha-ha as "Cat Man Do" and "Let Me In," it's still pretty amusing. I particularly like the way the cat swells its chest with pride when it presents its "prize."
