  1. There’s a greater than zero chance this ends up making more money than Fantastic Four, for roughly a tenth of the price.
  2. DanDaDan S2 12. (Season Finale apparently).
  3. The Long Walk - 8/10. Superb character study that mixes the best of Stand By Me Stephen King (remember, he did that) with the traditional rage against the system prevalent in all the Bachman books. Easy to see why it got its teeth kicked in at the box office though.
  4. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2025-09-18/dan-da-dan-anime-gets-3rd-season/.228952 Now that it's a Toonami show, this gets put here, but yeah. Strong streaming numbers = renewal.
  5. How people want Hollywood to react - "You know, maybe there's a market for animation besides ugly looking comedian driven sitcoms, baby shows, and therapy session cartoons for women with weird colored hair!" How Hollywood will react -
  6. Gambling addiction seems predicated on making people reach for something they don’t have. “Oh, if only I bet on X!” Unless you can see into the future, that ain’t happening.
  7. Pernil, rice with vegetables (mushroom, peppers, and onions) and red wine. Slowly but surely I’m getting more crunchy skin.
  8. DanDaDan S2 11 Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle (Part 1 of 3) Gatchiakuta 8.
  9. If the Giants and Jets are going to keep driving me nuts, the least they can do is help pay for my groceries.
  10. https://deadline.com/2025/09/box-office-demon-slayer-infinity-castle-conjuring-long-walk-1236529652/ 37% Latino audience. Latinos are never beating the weeb allegations.
  11. I got so sick of the Giants and Jets that I bet against them in a 3 game parlay with the Rams winning. Naturally the Giants keep it close.
  12. I’m literally in a sitcom plot. A friend of my parents wants to golf with me next week, but I’m worried my game isn’t going to be good enough given he’s an avid golfer and after a year of playing, my driver and 3 wood still aren’t breaking 200 yards.
  13. Strip steak, pasta with Alfredo sauce, mushrooms, and baby tomatoes.
  14. As big a whiff as Fixed was, blaming that for Western Animation's problems and not the migration of the audience to Japanese animation, increasingly expensive personal projects that flop at the box office and on streaming (Oh hai Eilo), and writers that feel increasingly focused on personal grievances and an existing audience that agrees with their beliefs over any sort of broader fandom feels misguided at best. When a bunch of 40 and 50somethings are asking me, the (relative) kid of the group what the hell Demon Slayer is because there are ads for the movie all over cabs, but the next production from the Owl House lady after that flopped is an indie show mostly about her whining that Disney saw Owl House was unpopular and canceled it, that to me does more damage to Western animation than the dog balls movie. When Netflix's big next project is Ricky Gervais (who I can't really stand, the self-righteous prick), gets his animated project which is literally just "Fixed with cats" greenlit because he's a comedian with some clout, that hurts more than an artist-driven movie, even if it is about dog balls.
  15. So…we’re totally getting Cena as All Might, aren’t we? Him or Cody Rhodes.
  16. https://www.wsj.com/business/media/paramount-skydance-prepares-ellison-backed-bid-for-warner-bros-discovery-0b921c20?mod=e2tw Asset purchases while the purchasing is good.
  17. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/09/warner-bros-sues-midjourney-to-stop-ai-knockoffs-of-batman-scooby-doo/ Betcha thought it was fun to make art with weird proportions of Batman and the guys from Supernatural. Not so funny now, is it?
  18. https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/openai-backs-ai-made-animated-feature-film-389f70b0?st=GYZ8b6&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink&_hsmi=379833655 Cue the angry mobs.
  19. This is why Adult Swim never really does anything for its anniversary.
  20. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/my-hero-academia-live-action-movie-1236366658/ It’s moving forward.
