Looks like the reviews for the Animorphs Musical are already in. Thanks to the Animorphs LiveJournal community, here is the article:

I’ve also updated the Articles section with this as well. It is posted here, under Fanbase.
UPDATE: The people involved with the musical have informed me that the performance from their last show has indeed been taped, and will be coming online soon enough. I’ll post it here once it does.
I would’ve given a bit more of a heads up on this, except that I’m only finding out about this now. I stumbled upon a group of Animorph drama fans on Facebook who have apparently made their own musical for the series! The musical is at an Off-Broadway Theater as a part of the Yale Drama Coalition. Here are the show times:
February 26th 2009, 8:00 pm
February 27th 2009, 8:00 pm
February 28th 2009, 2:00 pm
February 28th 2009, 6:00 pm
Click here for more information on the show, for those that live close enough to attend. If anyone happens to get a recording of this, then let me know, and I’ll put it up on the site as well.
I got a very interesting email today. According to a source (that wishes to remain unnamed), there may be a slight chance of Scholastic planning to relaunch Animorphs.
So what does this mean exactly? Absolutely nothing at the moment. Consider it as a rumor for now. Rumors, especially those revolving around to the relaunch of the Animorphs series, are nothing new. They can date all the way back from the day the series ended. Most of them are just topics of wishful discussions amongst fans. However, you never know how these things can go, so I am posting about this just in case.
No official announcements of any kind have been made by Scholastic yet either. I will keep you all updated if there are any further details to add on this matter.
Happy New Years everyone! I hope you’re all enjoying your holidays and are having a great start to 2009. 🙂
No new updates for today, sadly. The last couple of weeks have been pretty insane, but rest assured that I will start working on the archive again as soon as I can!
To all the contestants participating in the Animorphs 2008 Music Video Contest, this is your 2 week warning to finish up any videos you’re working on. Please have them edited, finished (with an additional 30 second clip), and have them submitted to XtrunkX in order to qualify for the contest.
Remember, the deadline is on October 31! If you have any questions concerning rules, guidelines, or submission, then please direct yourself to the contest details in the Fan Projects section.
I ran across an interesting and very funny video of Michael Grant (co-author of Animorphs) promoting his latest book “GONE” on Stupid Blog Name. Be sure to have a look, I think you’ll enjoy it as much as I did:

Some more new things for today. The Audio Clips section in Downloads has been fixed. I know some people were having problems with it when I first released it, so I re-encoded everything so that it would work well no matter what browser you used now (IE, Firefox, etc). If something is still off or not working on that page, then please let me know by emailing me or by posting below.
Also, we’ve got a bunch of new items today for the Fan Projects section:
Fan Art: Check out some awesome drawings from Monster Man, with a total of 8 pieces. Visser Three is known for many vicious and unusual morphs for hunting down the Animorphs in the series, and Monster Man has gone through and drawn most of them in here. Go ahead and take a look. I think you’ll like ’em.
Video: Visser2Azula has another great video for us: Jake’s Tribute.
Multimedia: Two new interesting things here. Both of these are from RAF, and once I saw them, I just had to ask the creators to see if they would want to share it with us. I’m glad they agreed.
Check out a Yeerk Online Host Compatibility Dating mock webpage called InfestRight made by Pez001, and an Animorphs Phone Answering Machine sound clip by Toominator (It has been posted in the audio clips page as well).
I personally think both of these are absolutely hilarious and creative. Hopefully you all enjoy them as much as I did.
Lastly, we’ve got a bunch of great new Quotes added in from you guys, so check those out, and be sure to send more of your favourites our way.
That about covers it for now. Until next time!
Thanks to Raevyn, we now have the last missing inside cover: #42! I have reflected this change onto the Support page, and am now working on arranging for all of covers to viewed in the gallery section for a future update. At the same time, I’m also still working on the book section so that they have their rightful place on the site.
However, saying this, I’m still looking for a better picture of the inside covers #40, 42, and 43. The reason behind this is that these were all taken with a digital camera, so the quality is decent, but not on par with the rest of the covers. If you can provide me direct scans, then this would be much appreciated.
Please contact me as usual (email, form, or reply right below to this post, remembering to a leave a way for me to contact you back.)
Michael Grant & K.A. Applegate (co-authors of Animorphs) have their own new blog up now called “Stupid Blog Name”.
Check it out at: www.stupidblogname.com
Update: I’ve added links for K.A, Michael, and everyone else onto the right side of this blog. All future links will be updated on there.
Hirac Delest now has an icon on the address bar! Isn’t that AMAZING?!
…
Okay, it’s a lame update, but I needed to clear my guilt with a quick update for not adding anything new for a while now. I’ve been working on your submissions here and there, so I’ll definitely have something real up after my exams are finished in a week or so.
