If they hadn’t sold it then they would have sold it at a later date, maybe to Amazon. As it stands they got quite the nice windfall for it.

In other words, he’s a fucking moron. I’m sure DeMarco absolutely adores the guy, but Toonami’s now even more boned because any hope of relief from HBO Max originals is gone and I don’t see Mr. “Movie Theaters are a Sacred Institution” wanting to invest any pennies in Japanese cartoons from scratch when that’s the only reliable source they have left. Hell, knowing this penny pincher, he might not be above breaking out reruns from the vault to save money. Who’s up for Afternoon Adventures 2.0?

You just reminded me of that. That's going to make me cry. I'm sorry, but you found a guy that nailed a role Bruce Lee made FOR HIMSELF, and not only can you not get him a decent Hollywood film, you're going to cancel the thing that made me care about him in the first place.

AEW is low cost, live programming in the vein of sports. It's one of the potential big winners in this shitshow. You want AEW/ROH on Discovery+? Odds are you will get it because of how cheap it is.

He's trying to rewind the clock to the days where HBO existed as a repository for films and nothing more. At this point he might as well bring back HBO Boxing...actually, I wouldn't mind that too much, but he's far more likely to let DAZN handle that.

So any hope of HBO Max helping out is now gone - The rumor is HBO Max will be dissolved and what’s left folded into a reality show focused Discovery +, while HBO remains primarily a repository for films that have finished their theater runs. Zaslav is an old school “theaters first” guy and also a penny pincher, so bye bye Harley, bye bye Young Justice, and bye bye any relief for Toonami.

Apparently Blue Beetle, despite being completed, and starting the Latino kid from Cobra Kai fresh off of well…Cobra Kai, is next to be canned. Warner is apparently going to axe it after viewing a first print. At this point just give Keaton a shit ton of money and have him play old Bruce in Batman Beyond. It’s what they should have done with him in the first place.

The Scoob sequel is facing a similar fate.

It’s equal parts relapsing and flashbacks.

Trailer.

Tonight’s episode is called “Breaking Bad.” Watch it be entirely about Gene.

Spy X Family 2.

Supposedly this half of the series is a considerable improvement. Guess we’ll see.

Try another approach. ”Yo Fryman, maybe we should just watch the fights tomorrow night.”;

They had Tim Horton‘s in New York but they seem to have retreated back to Canada after Penn Station underwent renovation.

Just in time for the fall season. Adult Swim could use the good news.

I got to finally pay off my biggest bills a few months ago, so other than some considerable charitable donations (because the world could use some), it would probably be the basic life improvements. Nothing exceptionally showy though, I don’t need a yacht.

More genius decisions from the people who bought the world Morbin Morbius, the Emjoi movie, and want to make Robotech/Macross the new Star Wars. Still, Genndy Tartakovsky is vindicated once again.

Look, I actually like guacamole on meat but the hell with these people finding things to blame anyone under 50 for.

That’s a standard herald of regime change. Clearing the deck of anything less than synonymous with the brand to bring in your own stuff and claim credit for its success.

My guess is HBO Max has the lion’s share of the viewership on that one but we won’t know for a bit.

If it aired during Tuca and Bertie than Toonami knows its audience.

That’s where I move, change my phone number, and no one knows where I am except my closest family.

There are too many stories of lottery winners being conned into schemes or taken for rides that if I were to win, absolutely no one would know. My favorite from that hall of shame is Wrestlicious, a female wrestling organization funded by a lottery winner…that got canceled after one season and left him flat broke. He was asking for it when he made himself an on air authority figure called “JV Rich”. Now me? No one would know. That multimillion dollar apartment was an inheritance dammit! Also a lot of rich folks use holding corporations and trust funds to manage their money so it’s not done in their name. Anything that keeps the money trail being led to me is a good thing.

https://variety.com/2022/film/asia/live-action-knights-of-the-zodiac-toei-animation-transformation-1235321919/ Toei interview about the project. Interestingly Toei’s head acknowledged the Netflix adaptation…didn’t go so well but the creator of the manga took him out for a night and helped smooth things over. Funny enough that Netflix show is getting a second season on Crunchyroll, especially with Sony as an international distributor. Hopefully they learned.
