"Predator: Badlands" rewrites the rules of the #Predator franchise with exhilarating, futuristic action and, more importantly, depth and character to spare. Like the original, it challenges regressive masculine values, TheWrap film critic William Bibbiani says. The full review: bit.ly/4osMfJe

Genndy Tartakovsky delighted fans over the weekend when he shared a leaked animation test for his long-shelved film 'The Black Knight,' hoping fan interest can convince the studio to revive it. www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film...

THANKS. FOR. WATCHING. Again and again, thank you for watching and your continued hype for animation made outside of mainstream studios. So proud of our crew, so thankful to work with Glitch, so happy to write next to Zach and JBO. 🧡💚💙

It's still so crazy (in a good way) to me that these games I worked on 25 years ago are still finding new audiences today. Warms my heart, and I'm super glad that the @nightdivestudios.bsky.social folks made the SS1 & SS2 remasters.

I really had never appreciated the value of the hard parts of creative work fully before genAI showed up with its genie-like offer of shortcuts, or understood what a trap those shortcuts truly are. Even though humanity has been telling cautionary stories about genies and fae bargains for millennia!

I wrote the cover story for the latest issue of @unwinnable.com, about the Big G himself, and the always amazing @xenofauna.bsky.social absolutely knocked the cover art out of the park!

One of my favorite Peter David novels was HOWLING MAD, about a wolf bitten by a werewolf and now changes into a man every full moon. It's a hoot of book.

Our deepest condolences to the family and friends of comic book and sci-fi writer Peter David, who passed away last night following a long illness. Incredible Hulk, X-Factor, Star Trek...so many fond memories of him and his work.
