bsky.app/profile/bucket… You can find me here now, I'll try to update progress on the scans and my upcoming fan RWS stories whenever possible. Or you can join the Discord server Anderprise 21 where I'm a lot more active. discord.gg/rs9s4Xw7

@magicrailroad25 Will there be a music-only track for any of the cuts you're planning?

@MarshWithLove @skipppppy_art Or it will be like that one episode of Doctor Who where she becomes the guardian protector of the digital circus from the outside looking in, forever being unable to interact with her old friends but instead watching over them and keeping them alive.

@skipppppy_art I just kinda want to believe that Pomni at the very least will be able to leave yet feel extremely guilty about it while other characters will do what you described or get deleted, a mirror to the I have no mouth where everyone except for the protagonist was "saved"

My big TADC finale theory is that with Caine gone and “conjuration magic” cemented as a real thing, they’ll find the power to completely reshape the digital landscape into whatever they want. They can never go home, but they can build a new home, a better one, together

@theconfused_pro Here's a recreation of what the full video would've been like:

new tamals OC, what think?

@Cremfreshy @jessiegender Newsflash asshole, your timeline is designed from the ground up to automatically to give you more of the same kind of topics you were already interacting with. Don't like it? There's this thing called a "block button". I trust you have the 12 brain cells required to find it?

@jessiegender Umm aksullay it's always been gay!!! Don't you know everything is gay?? What's the big deal?!?!? Are you tired of hearing about gay shit 24 fucking hours a fucking day every fucking day of the week? SHUT THE FUCK UP.

“Gay theater kids larping” basically describes most of production of any Star Trek… hell most of sci-fi television before the streaming era. Also, your book looks like AI slop made for people who don’t care to think about Trek beyond “pew pew” and “BIG DUDE CAPTAIN AHHH”.

@HXG2023 @debug8 @ShinyMcShine_ Third episode if you count that failed first go around at what would eventually become "Some Enchanted Evening"

@debug8 @ShinyMcShine_ This was literally the second episode of the entire series. Lol

"Hmm. Whoever did this is in very deep trouble." "And a sloppy speller too. The preferred spelling of "Wiener" is w-i-e-n-e-r, although "e-i" is an acceptable ethnic variant." "Good point. Boys, let's see your hands."

Woke: Anno made Evangelion to be anti escapist Broke: Anno made Evangelion to show off cool christian imagery Bespoke: Anno made Evangelion because THUNDERBIRDS IS AWESOME!

@piperocktheory @Beatman1 @Exalted_Speed ngl I don't agree. Anno is a great creative but he is the most fanboy coded creative to ever exist. We already have too much fanboyism behind new works in the post Anderson age of Thunderbirds tales. TAG 2015 was just trying to make Thunderbirds fit the Transformers prime mold

@Beatman1 @Exalted_Speed Shin Thunderbirds would be the sickest shit ever

I never know what fucking hits for me

@Exalted_Speed Thanks for crediting my friend's video, but not a lot of people know that Gerry Anderson *did* infact work on plans for an anime Tokusatsu TV show in 1977 known as Thunderhawks. Althought it wasn't picked up, Gerry took the basic concepts made for it and change it into Terrahawks

youtu.be/LB12HNNDDcc?si… Just to give proper credit here is the full video showing more things

@FinThunderBlue tbh I think the abundance of discourse part is just a side effect of twitter being twitter. We didn't have nearly this much bickering and contradictory feelings back in the days when people's only exposure was on Youtube or Deviantart if you were a very specific person.

I stopped watching anything thomas related about 2008 when I was 8 years old. I've hardly kept up with the series. At the time my last exposure to it was watching the HIT stuff that was very different than the Carlin/Baldwin eras of the model series that I liked. Now I have done the legwork in getting caught up but I still have no knowledge of the CGI exclusive characters and never knew it had a fandom on par with Sonic in terms of discourse. (Autism is to be expected, they're trains)

Diesel was the real industry plant Thomas character and for that Rev W Awdry killed him off for a laugh.

@PearlteaRizzy @Stay_Ch1ll my boi Jeff Tracy catching strays as usual 😭

@Stay_Ch1ll The only good billionaire is Scrooge McDuck because he's a duck and not real.

He had undefeated PR run. Shitlibs thought of him as the EV guy. Redditors thought of him as Tony Stark IRL. Media adored him. Then the Thai cave incident happened. He blew it all up. Called a guy a pedo. Decided to LARP as /ourguy/. Addicted to ketamine. Now he's alone.

Fall Out, the final episode of The Prisoner, aired in most ITV regions during February 1968. With the series cancelled, writer and director Patrick McGoohan was under pressure to pen a concluding episode that would tie up all the loose ends. Instead ...

@crikey_fell *made a map shit

@crikey_fell I'm pretty sure, canonically speaking, Wilbert Awdry was the first person in universe to even have a proper map of Sodor drawn up. You really think people are coming in flocks to an island that is so off the beaten path that ONE GUY in all of history ever map a map of it?

Genuine question, in the RWS, seeing as the Skarloey is revenue-earning unlike the Talyllyn's heritage status, is there any reason the Skarloey wouldn't have an enormous waiting list of applicants who'd be able to do the same work you'd do for free on the Talyllyn?

Since the fandom has collectively (and understandably) moved onto the Next Big Thing™, my final thought on the whole Christopher Awdry fiasco is that it was an unfortunate situation all around, and it brought out the worst of a lot of people, which is disappointing. 1/

@cheddarious @cartycinema If you want to learn, your best bet is to reach out to fan scanning groups like @kinekovideo. They are doing wonderful restoration work of various film materials previously thought lost. 16mm looks marvellous in 4K video despite its smaller size. Tho 4K video isn't "true 4K" tbh.

@masterbatie @cartycinema What would be 16mm? Where can I get more info? I am researching about film stock

Does the 2026 show have you worried? Why not watch Thomas, Terence & the Snow... or Terence the Tractor in 2K! Ringo Starr US: drive.google.com/file/d/1r1oXDe… Ringo Starr UK: drive.google.com/file/d/1egoyWH… George Carlin US: drive.google.com/file/d/1QiO_0o… Enjoy!

@cheddarious @cartycinema The detail in 35mm film is largely dependant on the manufacturer and what year it was produced. As technology improves, the amount of silver halide crystals in film doubles, therefore allowing more clarity of image. The general consensus is film has a hard limit of 8K pixels.

@cartycinema Do you plan to give a more in-depth look at how these restorations are made? I'm also curious about how far (in theory) could these be scaled up to. The pilot was uploaded in 4k and it is in 32mm, so I wonder what's the biggest resolution we could extract from 32mm, 16mm, etc.

@cartycinema absolute dismay. I mean that's just a kick in the nuts. sooo close to perfect as well.

@masterbatie Yeah that's part of the source. Weird chroma bleed.

Steam Roller in 2K! George Carlin: drive.google.com/file/d/12bbvff… Michael Angelis: drive.google.com/file/d/1ldHDL4… As always, enjoy!

@DustyMarie53 I know I'm like 2 days late to this but looking at Percy's old CGI model, the hinges on the sandboxes seem to have shrunk compared to how they used to be depicted ala the 80th anniversary toy.

And we can tell these packages aren’t accurate to the show on Percy alone. His promo has the old cgi saddle despite both of his toys explicitly changing that. These are definitely placeholders because the show is not done yet.

Here are the facts The new box art does not match the photo bashing of the Pixar Cars line (which I believe is already outsourced to begin with) There is a consistent filter applied to all the new Thomas product. But discrepancies seem to come from what base render is applied
