Predator: Killer of Killers - 8/10 It’s both like and unlike Prey where the idea is pretty simple and back to basics with the Predator, but I like that there are different kinds and the characters are all unique, if archetypes. Also more Arcane style animation!

The studio keeps HBO.

I’m pretty sure Daima tapped their budget. At least Rooster Fighter and Get Jiro are in the pipeline.

It’s kind of hilarious that as Warner says they want more anime, they sort of ignore their legacy block for it. Then again all the titles scream Netflix exclusive.

UFC PPV's and west coast cards can sometimes end between 12am-1am on the East Coast depending on the start time. They are specifically being called out as the dark horse candidate, with the two front runners being Netflix and Amazon. It would fit HBO Max going towards that older demographic though.

It says something about our Eurocentric studies in public school curriculums when I had to read a novel about a girl watching a family conflict on the side I cannot remember the name of, but not any of the novels of other cultures. At the least I would have them read part of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

One of the character’s is related to the Kure clan, a major player in the Kengan tournament.

They probably don’t want MAWS near TV until the movie’s out of theaters.

Only problem with dumbbell is that it’s a spinoff of a Netflix exclusive…that ended up with Crunchyroll. Go figure.

Well now it all makes sense. I figured once Netflix got it that was it, but DeMarco must have negotiated something.

So...Close Enough, their follow-up effort that ended up getting the Zaslav chainsaw?

The UFC rights come due this year, and while ESPN wants to keep the rights, several companies have also made bids. Why does this matter to you? Because if Warner Bros does buy the rights, and is showing Saturday cards, the reporting is that they're expected to shuffle a lot of their programming to minimize competition (for instance, moving AEW's Saturday night show to Thursday). Toonami could be pushed further down the priority totem pole or even moved outright if they fear any audience cannibalization.

An unnecessary sequel? Benson’s gonna be pissed.

Every single second of this new assignment has me hating my job and my current living situation more and more.

Lazarus being off Max Top 10 thanks to that trademark DeMarco touch seemed to predict its ratings this week. Yeah, Rooster Fighter is the wrong show for the block. Also I’m curious how many viewers of Week 1 Bleach bounced to Hulu/Disney + once they found it was there.

First day in the new office, and while it’s right next to my old one, it feels like a downgrade. Smaller everything.

Lazarus failed to make the Max Top 10 this week.
