Wut!? How so very bizarre. Then again, who of us wouldn’t want to fight a billionaire over the shit they pull. #videogames #internet #capitalism

Billionaire Waits Outside Supermarket To Fight Call Of Duty Fan kotaku.com/call-duty…

Wow. The hypocrisy is so thick I can’t see my own hand facepalming. #uspol #TFG www.salon.com/2024/11/2…

I’m sorry, but this is just yet another bucket full of stupid into the seemingly bottomless pit of live-action remakes of beloved animated properties coming from major studios. Animation is a medium, not a sub-standard genre. #animation #film #HowToTrainYourDragon #DreamWorks www.awn.com/news/hicc…

I’d say #Bluesky is doing pretty well against #Threads considering that it doesn’t have a #Facebook/#Instagram/#WhatsApp/#Meta/Lizardoid behind it. #socialmedia #AIsucks #EmbraceRetroTech www.engadget.com/social-me…

Well, it seems that #RiotGames is hitting back at reports that they wasted $250 million on two seasons of their #Netflix animated series, #Arcane. In short, they’re calling bullshit. The show was always supposed to be two seasons, and not the five being reported. And the cost? Apparently 80% of that is going to the #animation wizards at French studio #Fortiche, and the price tag is in service to the art and paying artists what they deserve. Fair. gizmodo.com/arcane-se…

I’ll freely admit that I avoided starting it because I expected to be forever disappointed by yet another excellent show being cancelled early and didn’t want to be left hanging. I was, however, convinced to give it a go by a fellow Mastodonian, and I have to say, I have zero regrets.
