Whenever times are rough, I always think back to the ending of A Boy Named Charlie Brown and what Linus says to Charlie Brown after he loses the spelling bee. It's a good message for people that we all need at times like this.

For those worried about Sony buying Peanuts, I just want to say that they only bought the stake from WildBrain. They don't own it entirely and the Schulz family still owns a stake in it. I don't think the franchise is gonna get spoiled so I'm curious to see what happens.

I actually use TikTok funny enough to post animation news to you of course and just by hearing the Ellison family buy TikTok makes me feel like I want to jump off a cliff by hearing it and if this goes terrible we are definitely going to see the downfall of TikTok for sure 😭🤘

@animatedantic.bsky.social @matbrunetvo.com Attention everyone Sony has officially acquired peanuts and might be the official mascot of Sony lol 😇✌️ share.google/FMiSXo6sroka...

I was never on TikTok to begin with....this only persuades me to stay off it.

Looks like the Ellison family’s got their hands on TikTok as well…So, should we boycott this app as well to stand against them or do we wait and see what the damage will be?

@matbrunetvo.com @animatedantic.bsky.social Rest in peace stugo or I should say another Disney channel show that lasted one season like primos and Hailey's on it 😭🤘 bsky.app/profile/gill...

Sad to see it gone, cannot wait for you your next animated venture. Literally it was one of my favorite Disney TVA shows over the last few years.

The Reason why StuGO is cancelled is because there is no other animation studios after Titmouse dropped StuGO and Titmouse is busy with other series (including Kiff)

Why is Disney Investing $1 Billion on AI? | AniMat's Crazy Cartoon Cast HIGHLIGHT youtu.be/Jx21UiDJbDY

I saw that new teaser for The Muppet Show reboot today.

It's crazy now that we're two weeks away from 2026. This year flew by way too quickly and it was a bit rough at times. My main goal for next year is to improve as I always do and still try to make people happy because in this day and age, we've got to have a little hope and joy.

Pixar has released a new still from Hoppers in Empire. I still think this is my most anticipated animated film of next year because of just how insane and different it looks compared to other Pixar films as well as how fun it seems. I cannot wait to see it!

Disney’s Ai investment needs to backfire

BREAKING NEWS Mat! deadline.com/2025/12/disn...

Twenty five years ago today, The Emperor's New Groove was released. One of the funniest animated films ever made, this comedy from Walt Disney Animation Studios is a total riot thanks to its hilarious story, great animation, and a slew of classic characters.

In case you need a little light to brighten your day as we all mourn the tragic loss of Rob Reiner, today's the 25th anniversary of Disney's funniest animated feature yet, The Emperor's New Groove. It's worth checking out again if you want something to give you a smile during a time like this.

Omg yes I am definitely checking out the TMNT short when I am watching the SpongeBob SquarePants movie when it releases and at least they are the heroes at slamming ai slop 😇🤘

My heart goes out to the Jewish people in Bondi who were the victims of real antisemitism (not the fake pro-Palestine one) with that terrorist attack just as Hanukkah started. I wish for your following days of the holiday to be filled with nothing but love as you heal from this senseless act of.

@matbrunetvo.com @animatedantic.bsky.social what a minute whatt Netflix wants to buy Disney after they bided 82 billion dollars with Warner Bros this screams potential danger in our hands everybody 😭✌️💔 www.realitytea.com/2025/12/09/n...

And it's worth noting that, yes, you get to hear "Gotta get a gift for Splinter" during the end credits. A Turtles Christmas is totally back!

I won't reveal what I thought about Search for SquarePants just yet, but what I can say is that you're going to LOVE the TMNT short Chrome Alone 2 - Lost in New Jersey. It's the hilarious, action-packed AI slam that you wished for. Watching that one the big screen alone made the experience worth it!

Let's brighten your timeline with some joyful news. Dick Van Dyke officially made it and he's still happily living at 100 years old! Let's all give him a great big happy birthday and let's make the most out of today in his honor :)

Have some incredible pencil tests from How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The Chuck Jones classic will always and forever be my definitive version of the Dr. Seuss tale. That animation and Boris Karloff's voice really just bring it all together.

@matbrunetvo.com at least there is some good stuff this week that can save it from brain rot such as an awesome super girl trailer an epic season 2 trailer to the wonderfully weird word of gumball and saying are last memories to cartoon voice actors who played Marge Simpson sheen and Doug dimmadome

@matbrunetvo.com but still I'd still find this week to sad good and bad but what I can say is I think the episode of Animats crazy cartoon cast episode 360 will be officially named It's the most craziest time of the year 🥳✌️

@matbrunetvo.com I have a name of next episode of Animats crazy cartoon cast behold ep 360 the most terrible time of the year and it is name that because of absolutely terrible stuff such as the awful ai McDonald's ad and Disney licencing all there characters to sora an awful animal farm and more 😭

@matbrunetvo.com id definitely seeing this being one of the worst animated films next year along with skydances swapped for sure and definitely a complete disaster in my book 😭🤘💔

@matbrunetvo.com hello everyone I had no idea that we will be getting an animal farm trailer this week and it is complete ass it wants to be the live action peter rabbit so bad it pretty much forgot what movie it wants to be

@animatedantic.bsky.social @matbrunetvo.com attention everyone the ai company that made the ai McDonald's commercial has released a statement on it from an ai actress from the ad and it is absolutely terrible and I feel like the ai coke commercial is actually better than this disaster of an ad

Yep I'd definitely seeing this movie a peter rabbit live action rip off but I will admit the animation is pretty good but other than then that this trailer is complete animal crap definitely seeing being one of the worst animated films along with skydances swapped 😭🤘

First trailer for Andy Serkis’ ‘ANIMAL FARM’ has dropped. In theaters May 1. #AnimalFarm #AndySerkis

I usually don't talk about film trailers I don't like, but I'm honestly stunned at how bad this new Animal Farm film looks. It seems like this film really is going to completely miss the point about Orwell's original novel. Like wow. This looks absurd.

Now is a good time to support the smaller studios like Spindlehorse and Glitch

If there's one thing that you'll never get me to do, it's lose hope. Things in animation and film are rough now and I'm worried, but I'm not gonna concede to the worst possibilities and think it's completely lost. I know things can and will get better. I want to stay strong.

Are you ok?
