China really is ahead of the rest of the world

Cartoon Brew@cartoonbrew.bsky.social

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy ‘Niu Lai’ turned its crude animation into a viral attraction, grossing nearly $10 million a couple of months ago. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

Yeah Tony! Why weren't you using Danhausen to commodify every single aspect of the show! You could have had Danhausen selling 3 Musketeers bars! Ronzoni pasta! Epic-sauce level failure. Really un-amazeballs move, Tony!!

I think y'all are at the point where you're hoping there's a tragedy We get it. You REALLY hate WWE. I do too, but it's time to chill the fuck out 🤼

WWE is moving NXT because of the election and because the CW covers the election Unfortunately when you're a shitty company that constantly counter-programs (and fails) people are going to assume you're counter-programming

Repost if $30k would change your life right now

I don't think $30k is a life-changing amount of money. Median American born in 1980 will have $2m in income in their lifetime. It's a 1% increase in earnings.

Didn't realize how many people were nostalgic for that period of the internet where we watched beheading videos on ebaums world

WWE hiring people and then immediately surgically removing everything that made the wrestler who they are will never not be funny to me

The taste makers have decided that the home decor of the fall is highland cows because jfc every store I go to I see some stupid looking highland cow decor

Glad insurance is covering COVID vaccine this year Even if it is only because it's cheaper to do that than actually treat COVID in a hospital

The guy that drove past that midnight release for the book and spoiled the ending was justified

The country sees Sliwa as a Republican People from the tri-state area see him as a Sopranos character if the Sopranos was made in the 2010s

"I'm supposed to be a tough guy," Curtis confided. "I can hold your hand," the mayor offered "What happens if I faint?" Sliwa asked. "I've got you," Mamdani assured him, grabbing his hand as Sliwa received his flu shot. abc7ny.com/post/nyc-may...

Just as a reminder, that's Linda McMahon standing next to him. If you're watching and engaging with WWE, you're contributing to the fascist attacks on the people on this country and the world by this administration.

The Trump administration has formally rescinded Title IX protections for LGBTQ+ students nationwide.

rotating an idea that halo is the defining media franchise of the 21st century. i look at how its been mismanaged for 20 years, no one working on it has a job, its games don't even sell anymore but. they cant let it die. the IP must continue. everything becomes halo on a long enough timeline

Sen Angela Alsobrooks (my own Senator, for whom I've canvassed) was the only Senator to play hooky on one of the most important votes of her career: Whether to terminate Trump's war on Iran. Why? She won't say. Even though she put out press statements on 3 other topics today:

"When you live in the darkness, amongst those that shy away from the light, it can inspire you to achieve incredible things. But sometimes you need assistance, that's why I choose Alpha Brain..."

"I live under the watchful eyes of the old gods and the new. Their benevolence is the warm light that guides my path, and their wrath is the cold darkness that awaits me should I stray. But I do not fear the wrath of a bad night's sleep, because I use a Casper mattress..."

I will never not be pissed off when someone tells me they bought an HP printer and had to pay for the subscription YOU LITERALLY DO NOT HAVE TO. PLEASE LEARN TO READ. PLEASE USE YOUR BASIC LITERACY SKILLS. CHECK THE FUCKING BOX THAT SAYS NO. ITS RIGHT FUCKING THERE.

The reason I get such a hard on for Pablo Torre's reporting is because our other options are "summarize the comments section of a tiktok video and then summarize the Twitter comments on a post about that video"
