Why does naivety give people hope? It just means they're easily fooled, and ultimately a liability when in positions of power. Someone who understands the cynical processes behind the systems they want to change would be far more effective for achieving long-term results.

Looks beautiful. I am invested. I'm just hoping WB doesn't become dissatisfied or try to reset the universe again for whatever petty reasons.

In the rural alpine hamlet of Mizubiki, not far from Tokyo, Takumi and his daughter, Hana, lead a modest life gathering water, wood, and wild wasabi for the local udon restaurant. Increasingly, the townsfolk become aware of a talent agency’s plan to build an opulent glamping site nearby, offering city residents a comfortable “escape” to the snowy wilderness. When two company representatives arrive and ask for local guidance, Takumi becomes conflicted in his involvement, as it becomes clear that the project will have a pernicious impact on the community. Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s follow up to his Academy Award®-winning DRIVE MY CAR is a foreboding fable on humanity's mysterious, mystical relationship with nature. As sinister gunshots echo from the forest, both the locals and representatives confront their life choices and the haunting consequences they have.

From director Steve McQueen, informed by the book 'ATLAS OF AN OCCUPIED CITY' by Bianca Stigter. OCCUPIED CITY – Coming Soon.

McQueen's a veritable workhorse able to keep impressively consistent level of quality, kinda Brit version of Taylor Sheridan but with broader palette. He should slow down so I can start to catch up at least lol

Huh did wonder why the original controversy was so vague and ethereal my hand passed through it whenever I tried to grasp something tangible. Even an awkward interview could easily been explained by so many factors of the human condition like high-masking autism, general social misunderstandings or distracted minds/attentions. This kinda makes that make sense for the first time. Also male self-described feminst are kinda tad suss, like self described pedo-hunters, intellectuals and empaths: worthless identifiers when from same outside source they're identifying. Claims are more trustworthy when made by independent informed parties - don't ask me if I'm (or claim you are) [insert positive social trait/philosophy], what incentive is there to not lie? - Ask ppl around with the relevant perspectives and experiences to judge more accurately instead.

I've been seeing all these memes and I have to say, what a fucking weird way to torch your career.

 

[Cicada 5]

When we said “out with the old, in with the new” for the new year, we weren’t talking to streaming services and their nasty habit of disappearing shows and films from their libraries. Unfortunately Paramount+ didn’t get that memo and went ahead and indulged in the aforementioned nasty habit. This time around, it’s some foundational millennial Nickelodeon shows (among other properties) that have hit the chopping block.

According to Deadline, the streamer has removed the cartoon Doug, the boyband sitcom Big Time Rush, and the Blue’s Clues spin-off Blue’s Room. It also got rid of My Life As A Teenage Robot, Wonder Pets, AwesomenessTV, Breadwinners, Game Shakers, House of Anubis, Let’s Just Play: Go Healthy Challenge, Welcome To The Wayne, Zoofari, Kung Fu Panda: Legends Of Awesomeness, and The Penguins Of Madagascar. Other titles that users have noticed missing reportedly include ALVINNN!!! And The Chipmunks, Face’s Music Party, Fanboy & Chum Chum, Ni Hao, Kai-Lin, Oobi, Sanjay & Craig, The Upside Down Show, and Tot Cop.

That’s a whole lotta stuff! Not all of it has fully “disappeared” from the digital sphere; some shows, like Doug, are available elsewhere (in Doug’s case, it’s apparently been licensed over at Disney+). But other shows, including Big Time Rush, are now unavailable to stream unless you’re paying to buy or rent somewhere like Apple TV.

Paramount+ purged a bunch of other kids’ content in March, including the briefly rebooted Rugrats, which was a Paramount+ original based on a classic Nickelodeon cartoon. Yet lest some prime IP lay fallow for even a moment, the studio announced a “live action” Rugrats movie in development in October. And all of this comes shortly before Paramount is set to solidify its merger with Skydance in 2025. When that happens, it’s expected that the company will spin off, sell, or otherwise shed some or even most of its cable assets, which could very well include Nickelodeon. So who knows what will become of that beloved archive of kids’ television. For now, we know that these shows are lost in the ether. Hopefully somebody out there has some Big Time Rush DVDs.

What career? Does he have anything going on once the Miles gig is over? Well, not now I guess.

I was actually quite surprised that he had no real experience before Spider-verse. He is great as Miles, which makes recent events even more of a shame.

He wouldn't be the first guy working in the cartoon industry - voice acting or otherwise - to turn out to be a massive creep.

And yet 90% of them have plenty of fans to defend them or say it isn't a big deal. At least for VAs. Creators tend to get side-eyed a fair bit more.
