Manic Expression

Hello Expressionists, Ratin8tor here to give the Platinum Outstanding Content of the Week.

Do you remember when the PS2 had the old slogan “Only the best go Platinum”? Well here at Manic Expression we follow the same philosophy by taking the best of the best and ranking them yet again to see who earns the platinum medal of achievement. Why? Well partly out of curiosity, but mostly because come August 2013 we may be able to find the best content of the year. But enough dilly-dallying. Onto the runner ups and winners.

Also I should mention that the winners of this Platinum contest recieve a prize: a custiomised user mug. My lovely assistant Fusionator will contact the winners for their details. But onto the runner-ups and winners.

And the winner, of the First Platinum Outstanding Video Competition is...

Combining humour, drama, an on-going story arc, multiple personality disorder, a large ton of snark, multiple characters, odd masks, unusual wigs, an image that is forever burned into my mind that no amount of brain bleach will remove (at the 3:20 mark for the morbidly curious), and a really bad knocky rip-off of a more successful movie we have...

Hang on, catching my breath...

We have...

Whyboy's Cartoon Corner.

Where he takes a look at the Kung-Fu Panda Clone Chop Kick Panda. Enjoy it here: http://manicexpression.webs.com/apps/videos/videos/show/17149484-cartoon-corner-chop-kick-panda-review

So with that out of the way (if there seems like too few, remember we did originally focus on the blogs first to make sure the experiment worked before moving onto videos) lets go onto the other half of this, the Blogs.

Stalling Tactic...

(Anyone that's paid attention to the last winners has probably already worked this out)

…

…

IS...

You know, perhaps it's fitting that this is our winner. After spending months upon months looking at Nickelodeon and the various sides of it, at the very end of all of it, the final question to be asked is: Is it classic or overrated? And who better to answer that question then someone that spent months looking at every bit of Nickelodeon and interviewing the very people that worked on the various shows, pbmiranda.

So check out her final Nickelodeon blog (at least for the moment) and congratulate her on being the overall winner: http://manicexpression.webs.com/apps/blog/show/19226918-90-s-nickelodeon-classic-or-overrated-

So there you have it. A toast to the runner-ups and the winners of the Platinum Content of the Week. Join us again in seven weeks when we do the entire process all over again. Until then Expressionists: Express Yourself.
