I’m just gonna say it I want a Mario fan animation on the internet that actually takes itself seriously and is genuine. Like, I don’t want any forced parody or irony poisoned garbage, I just want genuine sincerity and love for the franchise shown in fan animated form. We really need more of it

I'm absolutely horrified and shocked to hear about Eric Bauza's death. He really captured the spirit of the Looney Tunes very well and I can't believe that he passed away today as young as he was. I will really miss him badly.

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Good to know that the real Uncle Iroh is just as much of an omega based gigachad as the fictional Uncle Iroh.

Greg Baldwin, the voice of Uncle Iroh, responds to a post criticizing LGBTQ+ and disabled representation in ‘Avatar’: “So sorry LGBTQ and disabled people exist. That must be traumatic for you.”

Friendly reminder that this is what some YouTubers I follow (or used to) are ignoring when they hype up Fortnite's inclusion of Sonic and Kingdom Hearts or lament the lack of Nintendo.

Epic Games is reportedly pushing its staff to work in an AI-first production model and delaying a secret Marvel and Star Wars crossover shooter. https://bit.ly/4ymgbLl

Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaahhhh… why do so many people unironically like Epic Games and Fortnite and unironically want Mario in Fortnite so bad again?

Shinobi602@shinobi602.bsky.social

Bloomberg: Epic Games is going all in on AI as an unannounced shooter featuring Marvel & Star Wars characters is implementing an "AI first" production model "generated with full AI workflows". "No more hand-written code", said one of the directors to staff. ➡️ www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yeah how ’bout you go fuck yourselves, Paramount

ToonHive@toonhive.bsky.social

The Hollywood Reporter suggests ‘Skydance Corporation’ as a possible name for the combined Paramount–Warner Bros. Discovery. It draws a parallel to Gulf + Western, which owned Paramount beginning in the 1960s and renamed itself Paramount Communications in 1989, before being acquired by Viacom.

Starting to think the anti-Goose part of the TADC fandom might just be the quirked up chungus zillennial version of lolcow stalking.

Rare is big into cheeky branding! It was likely viewed as cute to give Diddy and Dixie matching Nintendo and Rare logos to celebrate that partnership. (Diddy's clothing went unadorned in 1994.) Nintendo stuck with it for lack of better options until finding a new way for their hats to match!

Mr. Generic Preisdent@cartoonosaurus.bsky.social

You know, with the redesign removing the Nintendo logo on Diddy’s hat, I can’t help but wonder why he had that in the first place.

Mario fans will bitch about how “bad” Mario’s 40th anniversary was, but it honest to god looks fucking incredible compared to Sonic’s 35th anniversary.

BREAKING: Sonic series in production at Netflix! The show is for an upper pre-school audience, and will be a "high-voltage, comedic, yet emotionally grounded series built for kids who want to feel a little edge, a little attitude, and a lot of ‘that’s my crew’ wish fulfillment." #SonicNews

As long as WE don't forget Mario, he is not forgotten. Even if Nintendo doesn't release a Mario game for 20 years, he lives on in our hearts. Mario cannot die until our thoughts of him die. I have 15 tabs open with Mario x Bowser doujinshi, and brother, I am keeping him ALIVE

I genuinely don’t want to hear a single peep out of the people unironically complaining about the lack of 3D Mario. Forgotten Land and Metroid Dread are up there as some of the Switch 1’s best titles so them getting follow-ups on Switch 2 is excellent for Nintendo’s lineup. Please play more games.

Now Zelda fans can stop bitching about how Nintendo “neglects Zelda for its 40th anniversary” They literally gave Zelda its own separate Direct for its 40th, they didn’t even do that for Mario for *its* 40th.
