The Flash - 6/10 Weird. From top to bottom that movie was WEIRD with a capital W. It’s essentially Warner going “blow it all up and let God sort it out” with their extended universe while having old serious Barry and Young Barry who I swear is just Ezra Miller trying to channel Dana Carvey’s Garth. I actually feel like it’s another one of those meta textual movies with its moral being to let go of the SnyderVerse, but it is a weird path getting there.

Any weight loss regiment is a slow and steady process. Still, sounds like you’re off to a good start.

The Black Clover movie is the 2nd most popular film on Netflix in the country, only behind the Chris Hemsworth vehicle Extraction 2. This pretty much seems to be leaning towards more of the anime being made, as well as Netflix taking it from Toonami.

Netflix isn’t a studio, it’s a company buying from studios. The thing is, Tomorrow Studios are the same people who did Bebop. This is why Alice in Bordeland and the Kenshin films were so well liked, and why I have more hope for Yu Yu Hakusho, but it seems they learned something in terms of costuming and tone. Bebop was cringe from bell to bell. This isn’t changed but not straight up cringe.

I like it visually. I don't know about making Luffy from a hyperactive five year old into a 12 year old whose entire idea of being a badass is imitating the MCU, but it's one of those minor changes I can live with.

Here it is, kids! August 31, 2023 premiere date, and now Luffy has a Mexican accent. Buckle up because everyone, and I mean EVERYONE will have an opinion for one of the most expensive shows ever filmed.

I spend so much time practicing grappling and jiu jitsu, but I hate bringing it up in too much detail because I’m worried I’ll come off like an Internet Tough Guytm. Jiu jitsu doesn’t make me think I’m a badass, it makes me mellow as shit. But I can’t really share that outside of the people at my gym without feeling like a braggart and a jerk.

Yes but the late Anthony Bourdain gives this project some credibility. The spigot remains thoroughly, THOROUGHLY cut off so Zaslav has to make more local cartoons.

Well, I think DeMarco has another show to eye.

The future is in-house.

That’s a surprise given how S2 ended.

Multi-language video.

That explains a few things.

Oda seems to confirm we will be getting the trailer this Saturday at Tudum.

It’s Twitter link time! There’s a lot of material…in the comedy side. Action seems limited to DC but were you expecting different?

Panel is today.

Elon misses rent, is evicted.

We’ve had successful examples fairly recently, namely Invincible not to mention the Spider-Verse sequel making tons of money worldwide, but so much of the male family audience has been completely ceded to the Japanese by writers that only want to write about “MY FEEWINGS” or relationships for the LBGTQ+ community shippers, that it’s almost impossible for the male audience to not associate anime with stuff for them and other stuff for girls. If 10 year old boys are wearing Jujutsu Kaisen shirts, something has gone wrong, in a big way. Genndy is like…the one guy still making action animation in his own style.

Some can be anime, but you need to have something deeper than a surface level understanding of the material. It’s why Castlevania’s fight scenes work (even if the writer of the first series is a sex pest shitheel). This is why I like that despite having flourishes from anime, Invincible takes most of its cues from the 90s X-Men cartoon.

The opening sequence.

If it’s anything like the New York crowd, you’ll have some loud weirdos but otherwise not a lot of anything else. At least they’re not screwing over traffic by me this time.

Genuinely would want to go to that “Latin America and anime” panel. Ah well.

At this point I just want it to come out even if it’s two episodes and is little more than a motion comic. Considering that Toonami ain’t got no damn money, I don’t see them making some insane project for the hell of it. Where’s Toonami’s weird take on Captain N?
