As a child of the 80's, I was ever placed before the TV when Conan was great, Heman fought Skeletor, Red Sonya fought and killed everyman she came to, and I owned every action figure. The Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books were a dime a dozen, and allowed you to plunder into the Mountain of Mirrors and fight dog-packs in the City of Thieves. My dad and myself use to set down and write little stories and make up our own sketches of monsters.
In the fourth grade, the creators of the cartoon/film LOTR came to our little school in Fort Ashby WVa and said that we were a test school for the new art of mixing cartoon graphics with real film. I was in love and the bug grew ever so....
