Second Level Wizards is proud to announce the EIGHTH Saturday Morning Cartoon Party, in which you can relive those memories. Starting at 11:10 on July 17 at VIVO Media Arts Centre on Main St (@ 4th Ave) we’ll be showing classic TV fare from the 70’s, 80’s and elsewhen along with bowls of Frankenberry, Cap’n Crunch, Trix and all your other cartoon-mascotted cereals.

Second Level Wizards is pleased to announce we’ll be giving away a full set of Rock Band 2 including game, drums, guitar, and microphone. The set was leftover from our Rock Band competition during Cthulhupalooza so it is slightly used but it is in working condition. The draw for Rock Band 2 will take place during intermission.

What cartoons will we be showing? You’ll have to show up to find out, but previous guests know that we’ve shown Scooby Doo, Popeye, Bugs Bunny, 1940’s Superman, NFB’s Log Driver’s Waltz and many many others. Plus we’ll have contemporary commercials and PSAs. Don’t drown your food!

Note there is no movie this time around – just lots of regular 22 minute (and shorter) cartoons. So drop in and drop out at your leisure and you won’t miss any important plot points!
