Little's vs. Borrower's

As a kid I loved the Little's books and, to a lesser extent, TV show. The Little's were the cool little people that lived in the walls and between floors of your house. They made intricate cites and houses out of things they found around the house. I loved looking at all the crazy stuff they made out of ordinary objects. Looking back now, the art was pretty terrible, but as a kid I loved it.

Then, about 10 years later, here come the Borrower's, the scum sucking rip-off written by no talent ass clowns. There is a movie about them. It sucks, hard. The Borrower's are the Go-bots of the little people living in your house genre. In case you some how had the fortune to miss the Go-Bot's, they were the crappy, third rate answer to the awesomeness that was The Transformers. If you got a Go-Bot as a kid, you immediately stuffed it in a hole, or threw it in a lake, lest it pollute your other toys. But I digress. Everything about the Borrower's is terrible. It's like they took everything that I loved about the Little's and stuffed it through a crap filter.

Ok enough ranting. I don't know why I thought of it, but man do those damned Borrower's tick me off.
