Well now...


Not as demon-y as I would've expected. Also, Takashi Miike directing?!

That trailer music though.

I'm still interested. Another anime on the watch list. 2023 has been a good year for some original anime titles or unique adaptions.

Oh good! Another reason to live!
Hope they do Class of 1984 after this!

They created a behind-the-scenes video of the process of animating a frame of Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget. Since plenty of people expressed a certain degree of interest in the movie, @FakeSympathy in particular, I thought I'd share.


I am a bit pleased to see that the eyeballs have a hole in the irises and they readjust the eyeballs with needles since that's how I was taught to do it and therefore did in the stop motion course I went to.

I am happy to see that it’s not a fake stop-motion via CGI. So much effort just for a single scene. Looking great so far

Tentative agreement has been reached between AMPTP and WGA. Final language is being drawn up as we speak.

‘Hard to know’ if Bruce Willis is aware of dementia condition, wife says

Emma Heming Willis says she has been ‘care partner’ to husband, 68, after actor was diagnosed with frontotemporal degeneration

www.theguardian.com

I wonder if he types on the internet about how he's very very very smart and how he can predict everyone's post and how he understands everyone but nobody gets him.

More seriously, I have no sympathy for Willis, but cognitive diseases are terrifying in that they make you lose your self, your identity, your being, more than your body.

David McCallum of The Man from UNCLE and NCIS fame dies aged 90

The Scottish-born actor was most famous for his stint in the 60s spy TV series, and most recently for his work on NCIS

www.theguardian.com

Weird nostalgia for a show I used to watch a lot and barely remember beyond the protagonist's pleasantly weird mugs and pleasantly weird guns. And the cool title theme.

Okay, I’ll bite. In which bowl of your cereal did Bruce Willis take a dump?

Several old anecdotes about him being an absolute dick to the common folk (some Planet-Hollywood-related), and some interview quotes that were beyond stupid. Plus possibly Gilliam's testimony.

So they went and did it. I almost wish they had done it ala Solar Opposite, completely recasting Rick and Morty, but I guess the voices are just too iconic.

Kinda old but interesting for Friday the 13th fans (who are probably already aware anyways) -

EXCLUSIVE: Bryan Fuller Tells Us Everything He Can About CRYSTAL LAKE

…there's always gonna be a collection of naysayers. That's nothing new to me! I encountered this when Hannibal was announced. Some of those tweets looked like copy-and-paste jobs from 10 years ago. So, part of me is sorta leaning back with my arms across my chest saying, "Wait and see," and the other part is more like, "Well, folks like that may not have to make a living with their imaginations and what they can imagine must be very disappointing to them."

Sir Michael Gambon passed away

The British actor, most broadly - but by no means exclusively - known as Dumbledore in Harry Potter (taking over for Richard Harris) was 82. He passed away in hospital after battling pneumonia; his wife Anne and son Fergus in attendance.

Looks promising.

Netflix has been killing it with all their anime and animations. Here's hoping they're actually treating their studios right this time. Like I said before, 2023 has been a great year for animation in general.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

RIP Michael Gambon.
