Things you can do instead of watching America being peacefully handed over to a criminal - Inauguration Special 2025
Don’t watch the news today since all they’ll be talking about is how great and normal it is to just hand an entire country over to a criminal in the name of a democracy that’s been utterly broken and shreaded. If that leaves you unsure of what to do instead, here are some suggestions:
And if you must watch TV, then allow me to suggest one of the single most joyful and affirming shows ever made;l Netflix’s Somebody Feed Phil. You will not regret it. Well, you’ll regret having trouble eating the food Phil eats, unless you live in one of the cities he’s covered.
Feel free to submit your own lists of things to do other than watch the news today. #animation #comics #manga #film #movies #linux #music #retrocomputing #humanrights #civilrights #scifi #tech #videogames #writing

#animation #anime #TV #Winter2025
HA! #CartoonNetwork’s #AdventureTime. I didn’t watch nearly enough, but our daughter loved the series and there were also #comics, but it ended back in 2018. The good news? It’s coming back and will start dropping new issues in April of this year. www.animationmagazine.net/2025/01/o…
In 2019 Gint Zilbalodis released his film “Away” which he animated and produced by himself. His new film “Flow” just won the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature, though this time he did have a small team, and beating heavyweights “Inside Out 2” and “The Wild Robot”. #animation #movies www.cartoonbrew.com/awards/go…
I’m quite sad that 2011’s #animated ‘The Adventures of #Tintin’ directed by Steven Spielberg and produced by Peter Jackson & Kathleen Kennedy hasn’t gotten a sequel yet. It’s a great #movie and did well at the global box office. Now Tintin and Popeye will soon be entering the public domain. www.polygon.com/news/5022…
#HomestarRunner has been on #YouTube for years. I’m subscribed to their channel and watch when they put out new content. Nice to see Polygon finally noticing, though. If it’s been a while, you should revisit some old faves. #cartoons #comedy www.polygon.com/yuletide-…
Found this in my #YouTube recommendations this #Christmas morning :) The #Lancia #Delta #Integrale is my all-time favorite rally car and this is some stunning #animation in Unreal Engine 5 #UE5 #shorts #film www.youtube.com/watch
So, just watched all of Amazon’s Secret Level series and here’s my review: It’s not… great. At least with Love Death & Robots we got original stories. These are glossy, extended ads for #VideoGames or, in the case of Ep. 15, an ad for Sony. Don’t bother. Just rewatch LD&R on Netflix.
www.youtube.com/watch As reported on #Animation World Network, #Netflix has dropped a teaser for Asterix & Obelix: The Big Fight, the third CG #film from Alain Chabat and the first to be localized for English audiences. I read Goscinny & Uderzo books as a child in the 70’s and have loved them ever since. Each successive film has looked better and better, and it’s clear they’re leaning more into the comic roots of the tales of one village of Gauls against the Roman Empire. #movies
Um… WOW!? Looney Tunes haven’t gotten a lot of love in… decades? Just take in the teaser for Ketchup Entertainment’s new #animation outing, The Day the Earth Blew Up starring Daffy Duck and Porky Pig. The teaser is utterly hilarious, and it’s traditional 2D animation and hits theaters February 28th, 2025. #cartoons #movies www.youtube.com/watch
www.polygon.com/animation… #animation #movies I’ve recently watched Away for the first time and was blown away. I nearly passed out when I found out it was made by one person. Now director Gints Zilbalodis' new film Flow is in theaters now and people appear to be loving it. If you haven’t seen Away yet, you can watch it now for free on Tubi, with ads of course. But you should buy the Blu-Ray or rent it, as it’s better without interruptions.
www.amazon.com/gp/video/… #animation #videogames Just watched the first eight episodes of Secret Level on Amazon Prime. Like Love, Death, & Robots, it’s gorgeous. Unlike LD&R it is mostly soulless. Only Dungeons & Dragons (Ep. 1) and Armored Core (Ep. 8) feel like a part of their game worlds. New World (Ep. 3) offers a good chuckle. PAC-MAN (Ep. 6) shouldn’t have been made. It’s not a bad waste of a little more than two hours, though.
I’ve watched the vast majority of the fifty nine films on this list of the best anime films of all time according to /Film. How about you? I won’t bother critically analyzing the list. It seems accurate enough. #animation #anime #movies www.slashfilm.com/1202644/t…
Stoner Cats is a hoot! This is clearly not getting anywhere near enough attention, probably because of the shady crypto NFT bullshit perpetrated by the producers. It’s now on YouTube, though, so no NFTs needed! If you love a good laugh and are into stoner humor, you need to watch this! And the cast is stacked to the gills! Jane Fonda! Chris Rock! Seth MacFarlane! And more! Crazy! So many exclamation points. #animation #humor #youtube #420 www.youtube.com/watch
