I really don’t like critics who take everything about storytelling very literally. Stories are about humans and humans are inconsistent weird people. J Jonah might be a jerk but he wasn’t going to let a kid the same age as his son be killed by the goblin.
Just found out AVGN was offered a cameo in Godzilla v Kong but had to turn it down because of his daughter was born around when they were filming. The internet would have lost it's mind if that had happened.
R.I.P. Stephen Hillenburg He made one of the greatest shows of the 2000’s something I didn’t think we can even think of pop culture in this era without Spongebob. Also don’t forget his time on Rocko. One of the great creators in entertainment. This is a sad day
In keeping with the tradition of the live action movie this looks like the budget was too high and that it’s only for a niche audience.
So perfect for Scott pilgrim
Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland say they are on track to release a season of ‘RICK & MORTY’ a year now. They also think the series could go on forever.

Seth stopped writing for family guy when he started working on Ted in 2012. So we actually don’t get a lot of stuff written by him anymore as he doesn’t write on any of his animated shows at this point. So maybe that is why this is so much funnier
If you think Animation is a genre you clearly don’t understand what genre means in cinema. You also clearly don’t understand animation. If you think animation is a genre you have no business thinking you can talk about it with any sort of intelligence.
Scoob is skipping theaters and going digital and on demand. What this means really is animated family films can go this route. Expect any other major animated family type film to at least consider this. But I’d say expect the worst
@ToonrificTariq
I was surprised since this song came out like the fall the original cartoon ended. Felt like a pop culture the turtles never got to be a part of til now
Lawmakers want the Justice Department to investigate Warner Bros Discovery, claiming that the merger has harmed workers and reduced consumer choice.
The lawmakers cited the cancellation of projects such as BATGIRL and the removal of content from HBO Max.
I’m not on Pizza Party anymore.
It was a lot of good years but I think the podcast has become something else and not the show I loved. Thanks to Pan (no hard feelings) for finding me and getting me to be on and all the great times we all had.
Thanks for listening
Disney owns The Muppets and makes those bad live action remakes of there animated classic. Make muppet remakes of the animated stuff instead. I would be way more into that and it would be a lot funnier too.

I’ve watched a few and they always get Rebecca’s background wrong. Like she majored in animation not just did a indie comic. Don’t understand why they all say that.
It's sad to see OK KO end but it's amazing that it happened. That it was the most
@ianjq
show that I can think of. When you get to meet Sonic and get a video game of your cartoon, that to me is an epic success. College Ian would be proud.
Please don't spread the rumor that it was my choice to end OK KO! Let's Be Heroes. It wasn't. However, CN gave us the bad news early enough that we were able to spend this season doing our planned ending. I'm proud of what we're making and I can't wait for you to see it!
No, there is NO BATMAN BEYOND movie in development! Their official word is "Not true. We are not working on an animated Batman Beyond movie." In fact, to be extra sure, it was checked & shot down at Warner Animation Group on feature side, DC FILMS, & WB Animation on TV side.
is nominating the Simpsons doing anything for animation? wouldn’t it be better to let a show like Smiling Friends have that slot. I feel like the show has had enough at this point let other shows get some attention.
Chris Meledandri does not agree with Jeffery Katzenberg’s statement on how AI will replace 90% of animation. He believes artists are the most important part of process in creating animation.
So if the movie inspired the tv show in the toy story universe it would the reverse.
Also I'm a red head. My wife is a red head and I have 2 redhead kids.
Seriously stop this narrative nobody with red hair cares
‘COYOTE VS ACME’ is now expected to be shelved and deleted forever.
Warner Bros wanted $75M - $80M for the film and rejected offers from Netflix, Amazon & Paramount, refusing to let them counter-offer.

Rooster Teeth is biting the dust after more than two decades.
Parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, after unsuccessful attempts to sell the unprofitable fandom, gaming and comedy entertainment division, is shutting down Rooster Teeth’s operations.

I think Adults at Toy Companies care more about Gendering toys then actual kids do. Most kids play with both boy and girl toys it's the adults that make them choose
The quote
“Getting rid of a wholly finished movie became “an acceptable means of dealing with a problem””
So capitalism isn’t even about production anymore
Excited to announce the Gravity Falls LIVE ACTION REBOOT starring Danny DeVito as Grunkle Stan, Danny DeVito as Dipper, Danny DeVito as Mabel, Danny DeVito as
The nick specials like Rocko and Zim work better on Netflix because most 90’s kids who would love to revisit them don't have nickeldeon or cable anymore. It’s like the most direct line to that audience now.
With the sonic movie falling apart before our eyes I would like to remind everyone that they are planning a rugrats movie where the babies are cg and the parents aren’t. The great cartoon characters turned into cg monstrosities war is not over.
It’s deeply offensive to me that someone doesn’t fully do research or watch a full movie before a review or write a piece. I work really hard to be able to find time to watch and fully research and when someone goes whatever and it gets a bigger audience it feels like a fuck you
@Johnny2Cellos
@Kash_Cash_
Also will say most Steven universe facts that people get wrong are very easy to look up so it shows the kind of “research” they’re doing
My beautiful wife and I are expecting a new baby boy at the end of August or whenever he decides to show up. Very excited for our growing family and Sophie is really excited to be a big sister!
I don’t think countering Spiderverse, a movie about how anyone can wear the mask and with tons of representation, with a movie where 3 white dudes are Spider-Man is not the best message really. Probably also says a lot about animation vs live action
Distressing to hear an instant reaction to the paramount / warners merger be oh cool all these characters can cross over and not our corporate overlords have too much control over our art
@belle_joyeux
Steamboat Willie was a parody of the Buster Keaton film Steamboat Bill Jr so at the time that was the meaning
I get that you don’t know film history but you could try and hide it a lot better.
Disney animation is typically for a large demo but not just kids
Saw Kung Fu Panda 4 with my 7 year old Daughter
Daughter: was the fox the same actress as raya?
Me: yeah that’s the same person
Daughter: woo she’s like the best actor ever
Just worth noting that the actual kids have a different perspective on the whole Awkwafina thing
Warner Bros Discovery’s push to cut $3 billion in costs is risking long-term damage to relationships with creative talent.
“The messaging both inside the company and externally is ‘Stay away or get out if you can,’” says one talent agent.

MPC is only shutting down one location and has locations in 5 other cities. Disney had nothing to do with this location shutting down. It wasn’t handled well by MPC management and has to do with the location and nothing to do with Disney. Still sucks for anyone that works there.
When my daughter saw the lion King trailer she was very confused by it. When I told her what it was she said ”daddy that not lion king”. So clearly I'm doing something right.
R.I.P. Stan Lee might be a complicated figure but he created more and did more for the comics medium then anyone ever has. a real creative legend who i never wanted to loose. he's always been around since I was a little kid. can't imagine marvel without him. This is a sad day.
R.I.P. Richard Williams for being one of the greatest animators of all time. The talent within that guy was unquestionable. Really one of the great film makers of our time
In 2010
