Finally, two letters from Bluth himself. Letter One was a response to a thirty page fan letter I wrote to him after Land Before Time. No, I have no plans to put that fan letter on this page, it's way too embarrassing! A few weeks later, I received this. I like to think that it isn't a form letter, but in all honesty, it probably is. Ah well. (Just for the record, I no longer live at Courtney Crescent, so don't bother!) Letter Two was received just after Anastasia in response to a letter I wrote asking if he knew about his Web following. And apparently I was wrong, these are not form letters. Wow! | ADD TO THE ARCHIVE (please?) |

Roger Ebert review. Courtesy of Jeff McGinnis. Thanks, Jeff. I had tried to find this review in Ebert's Video Guide, but it is only included in the earlier editions, and most libraries only carry the latest version. |

Video Guide review. Submitted by Computolio. I had seen this review, but didn't own a copy of the guide I could scan. Thanks Duncan! Also, here's another article, also from Computolio, from the TV Home Video Guide. |

A Closer Look at the Secret of NIMH by Joshua White.
This is something different for the Archive, a paper written by a college student for his English class about everyone's favorite animated film. Wish they'd let me do a paper on NIMH; I got stuck writing one on boring ol' Narnia. Josh's paper is pretty interesting, and got a B+ on top of everything. Way to go! If you like, drop Josh a line and tell him what you think. (PS, I'm pleased to be able to say that every article cited in his bibliography is available in the Archive) |

Well, that's about it. But, I'm always looking to expand the Archive, so if you have any articles of your own, let me know, and I'll include it here. If people would be willing to go to their local libraries and check the back issues of their major papers (circa July 1982), I would be eternally grateful. Remember, I've exhausted just about every resource I can reach locally. If the Archive is to continue to grow, I need your help! Let me know! Thanks! |
