If I controlled an animation studio- any animation studio- I would jump both feet forth. Alas- for good or bd- I do not.

Genndy Tartakovsky shared test footage from his film ‘The Black Knight’. It follows a knight who controls a 20ft suit of armor. Sony isn't sure there's an audience for the film and haven’t greenlit it yet.

After Kpop demon hunters success I don't understand why Sony are dragging their feet on this!

I should add that Pure Cinema Podcast does have its own Bluesky account @purecinemapod.bsky.social which I failed to mention on the original post.

I am excelling myself in populating my timeline this week, a trend that won’t last. One podcast I find invaluable and entertaining is Pure Cinema from @newbeverly.bsky.social. It’s one audio delight I look forward to.

Enjoy.

Keep up the good work, guys.

Saddened to hear the death of Dickie Bird. At the hospital with a family member one time, and with nowhere to sit, Dickie gave up his seat without hesitation. He was a good man and a gentleman over the years, with a generous and kind spirit.

Lad from Tarn did good.

Are you?

Are you as loud offline as online?
Are you as brave and bold as you are staring into a screen, safe and sure,

Are you as certain and resolved to the extent you stand up and act with no technology to shield you,

Are you willing while you’re still free?

The mental health benefits of being in nature are widely known, but did you know art and heritage can offer similar restorative effects?

Theatre, from its first orator, remains an active mine allowing the passage of time to loiter with intent. A prompter and constant agitator on which free speech remains bravely, stubbornly and inclusively common to the senses of humanity. Resilient and precise, tame and unleashed but never silent.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

If you see any being under heat duress, document it with photos and video, and do what you need to do to bring relief from suffering. Then call your local animal shelter or law enforcement. Don't wait; be smart. N #dogs #cats #heat #besmart #bekind

Our new animation ‘Room for an elephant’ aims to help support teenagers after someone important to them has died, it explores how not around talking about death can result in loneliness and isolation.

With thanks to the family and friends of Amara Sharma for contributing to this film in her memory.

Today, the UN released its annual Children and Armed Conflict (CAAC) Report, detailing the impact armed conflict is having on children around the world.

The report tracks grave violations against children - including killing, maiming, recruitment as child soldiers...

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."
