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
Aw, hell yeah! Just came across this in my recommendations and I’m going to support Stan and the his dream of making Orbital Search & Rescue a thing! Incidentally, I’ve also started watching Pantheon, which he worked on, and it’s fantastic and dark. It’s streaming on Netflix now. He also worked on Venture Bros., which is a blast!
Give OSR a watch and tell me you don’t think it looks cool and I’ll be sad. #animation #scifi #firstresponders #respect #youtube www.youtube.com/watch
Well, well, well. The first “Special Teaser #Trailer” for Lupin the IIIrd: The Movie penned by mangaka Monkey Punch dropped a couple days ago and it’s stunning. And, if my eyes do not deceive me, all hand-drawn traditional #animation and directed by Takeshi Koike (REDLINE, great film). A fine, fine return to its original form that I look forward to taking in next year. #film #movies #LupinThe3rd #anime #2025 youtu.be/KopjWLIz5…
Despite being cancelled after the second season (apparently the bill for production has been upwards of $250 million and it shows) #Arcane on #Netflix is an absolute, unquestionable masterpiece of #storytelling, #animation, #television, and just plain ol’ #artistic excellence, and all from a little know French animation studio called #Fortiche. Even if they got to finish it, you’d never want it to end, but I understand it wraps up rather well anyway.
Check out the pilot for The Art of Murder, a fully #animated #series concept from Choc Chip Studios, on #YouTube. Everything about the #animation is excellent (i.e., charatcter design, backgrounds, key framing, voice actors, soundtrack, etc.). However, pacing is a tad sluggish, there’s a little too much exposition, and I’m not overly keen on the musical numbers. I am impressed and will be following to support the artists. Nice work, peeps! youtu.be/wBaNOjORA…
Wow! I really hate it when a show I’m interested in gets cancelled. I’m actually rather glad that I haven’t watched it yet. I was going to wait until Season 2 was over and then binge the hell out of it, but now I’m considering not even starting! Apparently it was just stupid expensive to make. What a pain in the ass! #netflix #arcane #LeagueOfLegends #RiotGames #videogames #animation www.slashfilm.com/1706812/a…
I started watching Adult Swim’s new 2D animated series, Invincible Fight Girl, and I’m in love. Catch it on Toonami or Max and you’ll see what I mean! If you love #animation, you’ll get it right away. #CartoonNetwork #AdultSwim #Toonami www.awn.com/animation…
Watchmen Chapter I, a review
What can I say about Watchmen that hasn’t already been said… is what I would say if DC hadn’t just released the first part of an animated two part adaptation of what is considered one of the finest comic books of all time. But let’s talk about the comic book first.
Released as a 12-issue limited series in 1986 and rendered into a trade paperback combining all twelve issues in 1987, the creation of writer Alan Moore, artist Dave Gibbons, and colored by John Higgins, Watchmen was a critical and commercial success and has remained so since its release. It would win a Hugo Award in 1988 and be added to Time Magazine’s 100 All-Time Best Novels list.
