This somehow came up on my youtube feed and feel it appropriate for BlueSky.

I am not dead and not even resting. Just super busy.

But hey #AtariLynx

Checking in folks. Channel is still alive and well (and gotten a couple extra subs!)

My planned project on Mamoru Oshii's AVALON is still on, but taking longer than I anticipated. So I dusted off another idea I had that still has me rabbit-holing.

Check out the Apollo spaceflights in realtime.

Apollo 13 in Real Time

A real-time interactive journey through the third lunar landing attempt. Relive every moment as it occurred in 1970.

What do you do when your deep dive into a 2deep4u art house flick starts taking a month of research as you Do The Reading?

You dust off an old script and try to get it done by the next day, that's what.

I remember spending hours listening to audio commentaries. It really was a golden age of media appreciation. Shame that they got phased out with streaming.

Will Sloan @willsloanesq.bsky.social · Jul 16

I miss the 2001-2006 golden age of home video, when the medium of DVD was so popular that the likes of Martin Scorsese and Robert Altman were forced at gunpoint to participate in bonus features.

BlueSky is an interesting platform because I actually find myself learning something new or at least smiling, but I gotta admit I find it hard for engagement. Thoughts from other #Youtubers on #TubeSky? #YoutubersOfBlueSky #Youtube #SkyTube #IDontKnowWhatHashTagsTheCoolKidsUse

I did not expect this video to have made me go down this many rabbit holes.

Arthurian legend, Celtic myth, a certain director's filmography. I'm gonna be lucky if this thing exceeds a few hundred views but by gum I'm gonna give it some effort.

SteveM is indeed one of the best creators in the anime sphere. He does some proper deep-dives while still being entertaining and I love the commitment he puts to his aesthetic.

Jonathan Griffith @getinthegustaff.bsky.social · Jul 11

Help me make a big stink about this video so we can get Stevem off of Twitter and on here. 🤣

Stevem's seemingly academic approach to some of the best filmmakers and creatives in the history of animation is a joy to watch. He's currently doing a series on Mamoru Oshii and it has been wonderful!

Nothing like checking my numbers to see I've lost a sub.

Time to get cracking on the new video.

I mean, robots are made of metal, but they are strong - a quality to appreciate in any lover.

Well you and my wife are in good company. It was her idea for movie night.

I did enjoy it as well and it was nice to see so many comedy titans of the 90s in their prime. Also more than a little bittersweet seeing Chris Farley in there.

We really have lost a sense of craft. Was watching CONEHEADS recently and was amazed how much wonderful practical effects work there was. And this was for a "middling" 90s comedy that came and went.

rewatching THE ADDAMS FAMILY (1991) - I don't much care for reboots & remakes of old things, but if you're gonna go there, this is how you do it: w/every shot, beat, line delivery & visual gag dialed up to 11. #theaddamsfamily #barrysonnenfeld #filmsky

I am not an anime channel, but gosh darnit, I love them cartoons.

Currently reading (portions of) Brian Ruh's Stray Dog of Anime and ninesisters.org for researching my next video. No prizes for guessing what it'll be.

Yeah, tried to chase the algorithm so now let's just be a proper movie nerd.

So #AniSky #Oldtaku - apparently there's been an indie called Shinsei Galverse that's a love letter to 80s/90s anime. A mix of magical girl, sci-fi and Saber Marionette J-style designs.

I love it. And it's premiering on Youtube in less than two hours. What a time to be alive.

I mean... in the last year we had Geats licensed officially and looks like Mr. Dent has made some materials for a few recent Rider releases.

Frankly, I'm not sure how old you are, but this is a friggin' shower of love compared to the drought of the VHS and DVD era.

I love this sorta stuff. Seeing what got left out is often as intriguing as what was kept in... though I feel for people who work on this stuff to wind up unsung/unseen except for these little peeks.

I worked on Space Jam: A New Legacy as a Visual Developer. Another one of my many tasks was to create sneakers for Bugs Bunny, who at the end played without shoes on.

Hey so @dontnod.bsky.social are doing their annual free release of TELL ME WHY for #PrideMonth

As good as any decent movie.

My understanding is that Weeks is not actually canon anymore, but hey, it was a fun watch in the theater as I remember. A nice "expansion set" to Days.

Best flamethrower scene in cinema history. The story didn't do much for me as it made me realize I'm just not too invested in the lore beyond a framework for action scenes and Keanu's charisma.

The script didn't allow Ana de Armas to shine either.
