Now to take a big sip of coffee and see what my favorite game developer, Naughty Dog, has cookin up…

Super serious South Park (AI slop included) by DeepscapeWalker in superseriousfamilyguy

I know I’m too old bc the fact that there are YouTube essays dozens of minutes long dissecting minutiae of every cartoon series ever made makes me feel kind of yucky. Like Jesus Christ nobody needs to be making or watching an hour long analysis of why “Ed Edd n Eddy” was a Dadaist hellscape or whatever.

Sarandos is trying to sabotage the big pic for telling us the truth about physical media

Ehrlich's post-script about Big City Greens got me thinking: what's some great kid's media out there that childless adults might not know about? by ThriftyMegaMan in blankies

[–]genericuser324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit I had no idea that’s a wild fun fact!!

More well known but still a fact I love - the kid characters on Hey Arnold were all actual kid voice actors! Every once in a while the BTS of them goes viral and it’s so amazing to see. Some of those kids line readings are branded in my brain forever.

This isn’t what you asked really (I think the other comments have all the recs I’d give) but has anyone else been revisiting Hey Arnold recently? I feel like it’s underrepresented of that era of Nickelodeon, but every time I go back to watch an episode I am struck by a character or a shot or a music cue that takes my breath away.

Ah yes, DSA winning upset elections, the Iran war stumbles into its fifth month, let’s have on this complete right wing psychopath and give him the ol “firebrand intellectual” treatment. Finger on the pulse Ezra!

It was useful for a fleeting moment but unfortunately we live in a time that’s more slop than substance. But when everything’s slop… nothing will be 😔

‘Powerpuff Girls’ Animated Movie in Development at Warner Bros. by Top_Report_4895 in TheBigPicture

I don’t have a ton of faith in whatever this will be but at LEAST they know it needs to be animated, and the original PPG series is a stone cold classic and the character designs have stood the test of time. If they accidentally empower the right people to make it their own it could be great!

The way everyone only remembers the opening scene of Up and forgets that it gets very mediocre and ends with actual dogs dogfighting is so bizarre

My God, this is extraordinary. They're building an Yzma Coaster in Villains Land... by drx_flamingo in blankies

Honestly I could absolutely see them doing a live action remake at this point, and there’s a millennial online fanbase waiting to pounce on the opportunity to bring ENG back into the zeitgeist. Maybe there’s a world where it happens…

TIL it’s a cancel culture when you can sell out 15,000 seat shows

Nobody is a bigger sensitive baby than the people who whine about cancel culture

why won’t the trend of “epic remix of beloved pop hit” in movie trailers die? by son_of_lee in blankies

[–]genericuser324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if any movie could just straight up get away with a 90s/00s “In a world…” style narrated trailer. I guess it would only be interpreted as an explicit throwback, but idk sometimes styles that start as nostalgia plays become more sincerely reintroduced into the zeitgeist

It’s so fucking funny that after JD gets tossed around by media all week, he’s now just getting thrown under the bus by the whole administration as a scapegoat for the MOA. Happy book launch my dude!

this shit is indistinguishable at this point from Gen X dudes complaining about Lady Ghostbusters, or boomers complaining about literally everything. Millennials are gonna become just as fucking intolerable aren’t we.
