New music video for PROJECT: ARKONUS up today. The song is called "My Mind Is Faulty" and I went all in on the mind theme for the video. It's sort of if Pixar made a movie about anthropomorphic brains. Anyway it's a mix of funny and sad. Enjoy! youtu.be/EU45Rev0nDA #musicvideo #aivideo #projectarkonus #googleveo #grokimagine #atlernativerock

@QTRBlackGarrett And directed by the guy that wrote Alien, the comic book often cited as an influence on Blade Runner's aesthetics and helped launch John Carpenter's career with his work on Dark Star. The legendary Dan O'Bannon. The guy deserves a lot of credit. Great design, great movie.

Literally the best zombie design of all time. GOATED

You say that, but I'd wager many of us read it in school. I did. Wasn't a problem. We even watched an old, true-to-story animation of it (From the 50's). I was somewhere from 11-13, it's a long time ago so I can't be precise. But then when I was a small child I was watching things like Watership Down and Plague Dogs. Cartoons were different back then.

@PopcastGuys I was always under the assumption that it was never meant for kids in the first place...

I just got out of the new Animal Farm movie, and I am sorry to say Angel Studios has an Abject Disaster on their hands. This is not a movie you want to take your children to see. During the film, it's obvious the filmmakers weren't sure how to navigate deep philosophical ideals while making it appealing to children. They clearly want to capitalize on George Orwell's 1945 story Animal Farm for brand awareness and to drive kids into the theater, but the problem is this is not a children's story. They instead take a satire on the Communist Revolution and turn it into a warning on Capitalism and Consumerism where the actual final message is "True Freedom is working hard for your friends." Like the adapted story they wrote, that statement also makes no sense. The creators would have been better off shedding the Animal Farm name and writing something made for kids from the start... Grade D-

There's not a single part of this that doesn't cause me to think: "Why did no one realize this was a terrible idea". Kids did used to (And maybe still do) read Animal Farm in school. I think I was somewhere in the 11-13 range at the time I read it. Wasn't hard to understand. But it's not something that really transfers to comedic cartoon with fart jokes. Then, you have the corruption of the message and frankly just wholesale plot changes. It was a bad idea, watered down and corrupted. There should have been so many red flags here. For Angel studios not even to check the cast list and go "This doesn't look much like the people that make films we normally support". It's bizarre. This will be Angel Studios "Cutthroat Island".

@SaltyGoat17 Was anyone expect Eilish to say something intelligent or accurate? The woman is mentally challenge. If she had a pet snake, she'd feed it broccoli.

As I sit here eating leftover ribs for breakfast while petting my dog…

The Sicks maybe, but Bo Dallas and Nikki Cross still had a lot to offer IMHO. Poor Nikki pretty much just got fed turds ever since her main roster debut and Bo's potential has been wasted since day one. Plus he's 35, she's 37. They aren't too old. The rest of them are all (I think) post 40 and utterly pointless. I don't know why they didn't put some younger guys with the team. I mean the original Wyatt family helped launch Strowman and Wyatt. This helped launch a Universal Halloween Horror funhouse and not much more. Was there ever a point?

This was the right choice.

@nodqdotcom I mean... He isn't wrong. Just the advertising alone drained a lot of the soul from the event.

Kevin Nash says WWE WrestleMania 42 weekend “felt kind of soulless” nodq.com/news/kevin-nas…

@TheMadMan55 @aaronrift @Dreamworks @TKOGrp I mean, not them demanding a funeral, just them going "Wait a minute..."

@TheMadMan55 @aaronrift @Dreamworks @TKOGrp That'd be interesting. Gingerbread man is public domain, but the specific likeness to the Shrek version is trademarked. This one has different eyes and eyebrows but the rest is very, very similar. So it is actually possible.

Is Vince McMahon back?

@FoxSkully @aaronrift Could be. I mean they have admitted to some AI use and what is a Wrestling storyline AI going to be mostly trained on? Vince's WWF/E.

@aaronrift AI Vince McMahon

@RealDemoSmash Boss Man seemed like a good dude and one of the most reliable workers out there. A solid 20 year career and a well deserved hall of famer. Just 41 when he passed. Happy heavenly birthday Boss Man.

Happy birthday to the legendary Big Bossman! Here's footage from Prime Time in May 1989 of a match with Ray and our buddy Akeem!

@Brendon_Mold619 Well, with WWE culling people at 40 (And 35) for being too old (According to Metlzer), it's time to prove your a team player. Dude was asked to beat up a gingerbread man and he gave it his all. I can't really fault him. But yeah, I'm glad I wasn't watching that live. Lol.

What in the 2019 type of booking is this😭 Like man is fighting a costume #smackdown

Bo is 35. Nikki is 37. I get them getting rid of the rest of the sicks. But those two were the best two anyway. There are many older around. They could easily have kept them and let them bring in some young talent instead of replace them in the stable. It's a little odd when the youngest member is the leader anyway. Also, Aleister Black is 40. Not young, but not quite old enough for me to accept that as the reason either. Especially when they literally brought him back to the company from AEW when he was 39. "Oh we had huge plans, but then you went and aged an entire year! Now we can't use you!" IMHO part of the problem here is NXT. There's about 10 wrestlers currently there over 30 and in the past they've had a lot of people promoted already on the tail end of their career. WWE tends to not really know what to do with these people. Even when they were making waves in NXT. The truth is only a fraction of the audience watches NXT, so their success there isn't a big boost and many of them were already good enough for the main roster. All it is doing for them is stalling careers. They should really limit it to <30's and just occasionally have main roster people have matches there instead. But I don't watch as much as I used to. Maybe I'm old and out of touch and shouting at clouds. To be fair, clouds do annoy me these days.

Many of WWE's main roster cuts were "age-related" as the company is trying to get a younger roster. (Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter)

I forgot Nia too and she's always been utterly useless. Though I did like the demolition tribute. On the male side, it's worth noting Bo Dallas is only 35. There's a LOT of wrestlers over 35 left on the roster. Also at 40 I think Aleister Black is a little bit BS too. There's a lot of people over 40 around too. Yes a lot are big well established stars, but many aren't really doing much and are about due for retirement anyway (Sheamus and Kingston come to mind). But anyway, I'm not buying Bo Dallas is "Too Old" for a second or any of the women released. I don't see why they couldn't have kept Bo and just paired him with Nikki Cross, maybe got some young blood in. I mean WWE chose to fill the Sicks with people over 40. That's a booking issue not Bo and Nikki's failure. They were the best two anyway!

@EliteClubS0B @WONF4W And I’d rather watch those two over any of those.

The recent main roster cuts in WWE were reportedly age-related, as the company is trying to build a younger roster. (@WONF4W)

@WrestleOps @WONF4W Poppycock.

WWE reportedly decided that The Wyatt Sicks as an act had ran its course and as such decided to release the group. They felt they got all out of the Wyatts that they were going to get. (via @WONF4W)

@Robbie_Reasons Doesn’t even need answering. We know.

Do we think this will be funded by grants or ticket sales?

@MlCHAELMYRS 2

HALLOWEEN II (1981) vs. HALLOWEEN (2018) Which direct-sequel to #Halloween1978 do you prefer?

@WrestlingNewsCo Well, that makes sense at least. It’s still BS but it does explain a lot.

Report: Talent Believe Someone In TKO Is Behind The Cuts Of WWE's Darker Characters wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/repor…

Here’s the thing, they got rid of all the old talented artists long ago because they were all “Old white dudes”, the young people they replaced them with were less good and so drove up the cost to do anything. Meanwhile the writing and simply choice of characters went a similar way, for similar reasons. The result was films that needed over $200m to make (Way more actually, but those announced budgets are listed after the generous tax credits) and struggled to hit $600m at the box office (Enough to be profitable after theatre cut, Prints and advertising). The trend has been steadily downwards on success (Spider-Man and Deadpool/Wolverine aside) and let’s not forget the last movie The Wasp was in was one of the worst for quality, cost and losing money. So while I respect what she is doing (Really do, I don’t fault her for speaking out about non-actors losing work), the truth is these movies are not financially viable as is anymore. Something has to change if they are going to keep making them. Personally I’d rather they focus on actually popular characters and stories instead of stuff from the dead wasteland of modern comics, and make good, fun, agenda feee cinema, but if they refuse to that.. Well, they have to cut other corners. But maybe this can unify everyone… in not watching.

Evangeline Lilly, who plays Hope van Dyne/Wasp in the MCU, blasts Disney for laying off artists at Marvel Studios: "SHAME ON YOU for turning your back on the people who built the power you are now using to throw them away. Why [does AI] get to steal our brilliance and use it to make executives rich while the artists responsible for feeding their robots go hungry? Disgusting... To the Marvel Studios artists who designed and brought to life the glory days of Marvel...I salute you. I was there. I know what you did. I know how passionately you worked round the clock to make magic happen. You are the magicians, no matter what the Wizards of our new Oz make it look like going forward. I will never forget." variety.com/2026/film/news…
