This might seem a bit confusing at first, but technically, Sony co-owned Peanuts. Before this recent acquisition, Sony Music Entertainment Japan co-owned the IP with Wild Brain. Now it's changed to where Sony owns all of it.

That wasn’t on my bingo card, but WOW!

For some reason, the 2019-2023 Warner Bros. logo, designed by Pentagram, made a surprise appearance on the title announcement of “Digger”. Would this marks the return of the Pentagram shield amid the Netflix merger or is it just another variant?

We can do even more.

Trans people deserve love and support, not hatred and death. Everyone involved in this deserves exactly what they'll hopefully get.

Screw Disney.

The magic of concept art in media is what inspires people. It inspires artists. It inspires actors. It inspires those who work in the video game and film industry. If you have AI take over that kind of magic, then there is no magic anymore. When someone makes concept art, you know WHO created it.

I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops: FUCK GenAI. Creativity is human. I am so incredibly tired of this bullshit idea that the hallucinating plagiarism machine does anything other than harm people and generate completely useless garbage. Why should anyone be proud of this?

(Sigh)

…yeah.

Good morning. How’s things?

What a sad way to end this weekend.

Friendly reminder that Sony Pictures Animation has more creative freedom and focus on originality than other Hollywood studios.

This morning, Disney announced a deal with OpenAI. Read more about the WGAW’s advocacy against the theft and exploitation of writers’ works by AI models: www.wga.org/contracts/kn...

Here comes the toxic Sonic fans… Either way i am glad Mario Kart World got an award, even though I’m yet to get this game.

Reply or quote if you are anti-AI, anti-generative-AI and pro-human made art.

If Disney is still moving forward with their future plans to produce generative AI content for their brand, then I am not going to bother giving Disney any of my money for this unethical nonsense.

Have a heart. Have a soul. That's the way to keep winning in life. Don't be an evil and greedy piece of shit.

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

We will be watching. 🔥 #supergirl

The people who works at Disney (storyboarders, artists, animators performers) didn’t do anything wrong, so, for crying out loud, don’t harass them. Instead, blame the responsible who’s throwing all the legacy into the trash for AI slop. We want cinematic masterpieces, not AI slop! #ScrewAI

Agreed. Do not harass the creators who work for Disney. The artists, the writers, and the performers. Those who put their hearts and souls into the actual work are the ones who are getting screwed over here. The disrespect they're getting here is shameful.

Don’t harass anyone who works for Disney though people. They didn’t do this shit.

Okay, can anyone who’s that talented at coding and stuff make a BlueSky equivalent of YouTube?

Mmhm… good.

Oh boy oh boy! Here it comes! and I can’t wait!

“Is ChatGPT Conscious?” No. Next question.

Everyone is worried that the Netflix-WB deal (which honestly is a bad idea, but not as bad as Paramount) can lead into “the demise of cinema” (like that’s ever gonna happen!). But can’t we at least focus on the good things? Like cats, dogs, sunflowers, a rainbow, anything that’s positive?

Look, I agree the WB/Netflix merger is bad and I agree they should not be shortening theatrical windows. But I'm so fucking sick of people always expecting the absolute worst. It's gonna be rough, I'm not denying that, but I just I just want my timeline to be happier and more hopeful.

The Muppets did it.

I know people are worried about the Netflix/Warner Bros merger, let me clear a couple things up 1. The deal isn't finalized yet as Netflix will have to agree to some terms from Warner Bros 2. If the mergergets blocked by the government, WB will get 5 billion dollars from Netflix via the break up

And here… we… GO.

Welp, cue either “As time goes by” or “Merrily we go around” with a TUDUM twist. Some people are excited about it. Some were disappointed, and some were having their feelings mixed. Oh well, at least it’s better Warner Bros. under Netflix than the Elisson-owned Paramount. …now what, then?

They’re acting like as if having fun is illegal. Like really? “Uninstall Mario Kart World”? Is this some kind of obligation? (Sigh) They can’t let people have fun, do they? And I haven’t even got Mario Kart World yet… 🤦🏻‍♂️

Geez, Mr. Elisson. You don’t know when it’s enough, eh? Keep dreaming, because Netflix is going to win, apparently, anyway. (Gosh, what a whiner.) Also, from what I heard of some people, Netflix is the lesser evil of all three bidders the whole time. I should’ve have rooted for Netflix, then?

…I thought Disney and DreamWorks were rivals?

Now that I finally got my Nintendo Switch 2, add me! :D

Well what a way to start December! 🥹

Will the real Higor please stand up? #art #digitalart #digitalillustration #illustration #higorwilliams

Yes, indeed.

This is why you should ignore those toxic Superman fans. You can still enjoy your favorite Superman. Could be Henry Cavill or David Corensweet, or even the late Christopher Reeve. Don’t you forget this.

Fuck the new Harry Potter show but how about we don't bully the child actors? Let's not lose the plot, we're supposed to bully JK Rowling and the grown adults who defend her transphobic shit, not the children

Please skip entirely this series. Don’t you dare hate-watch this series. because if you do, Bloys will greenlight another season. Skipping this entire series or picking another show to watch instead is the way to go. Though, please respect the child actors. Bullying is bad, Y’know.

The Warner Bros. bake off has officially begun, according to The Hollywood Reporter. You know, people hates mergers and consolidation because of massive layoffs, tax write-offs and all that. But if it’s really happening, gosh, I hope Comcast wins. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

Everytime an Hollywood actor opposes AI, I smile.

Saving the day #art #digitalart #illustration #digitalillistration #higorwilliams

Twitter is down. Good. Stay that way.

Say whatever you want about Illumination, but at least they won’t allow using AI in their productions. My future animation studio wouldn’t allow AI either.
