Short-form comedy, from sketch to animation to prank videos, is the name of the game at the new Atom.com, touted as "jukebox-style, proudly low-budget, (and) super-late-night."

God help us if newgrounds ever takes the corporate sellout path.

The Atom Films website has now been ruined. It used to be a great website up until a few days ago. It has now been dumbed down, with the good layout and content it used to have mostly removed. I had a number of great shorts from Atom Films embeded on my website, now most of those films have been deleted, and the new video player looks ugly. Bring back the old website, the new one is rubbish.

Arrrggh! I just visited the site after having not visited it in a long time. What a change. I agree that the site has been ruined. Too bad.

So what else is new. Once again, art succumbs to the almighty dollar, not to mention the culture of youth worship. How telling the one of the most popular pieces on this site is "Gerbil in a Microwave". Yeah, a real triumph...
