The Exdimensions were Japanese exclusive 3-pack releases in the Legends of the Microns line. Some of these characters I've already covered as Micron Boosters or other promotional releases. The ones that are left, I didn't want to commit a daily slot for each one, so I'm taking them on in 3-packs.

#botaday Air Military Exdimensions is a trio of combat jets that I've drawn many, many times before, a redeco of the Air Military Mini-Con team. Pictured here from farthest to closest are Glide (a multi-engine cargo plane), Recon (a Blackbird-style jet), and Flame (a stealth bomber).

Black and white illustration of three flying humanoid robot. The farthest one away has wings with big turbine engines on it. The middle-distance one has streamlined outriggers extending from his back forward; the closest one has a very sharp, angular design

Getting to enjoy the internet in the 90s is like hearing what advertising was like in the 70s.

That’s why if my bill becomes a law, no one will be able to share thoughts about movies until thirty-five years after viewing.

People watching movies for the first time as online performance is sad and does nobody any favors.

I love talking about movies but its always a secondary activity to Watching and Experiencing them. The good and the bad.

I worry social media had reversed that, where being a part of Movie Discourse (and worse contrarians within it!) has become the Priority and Experiencing them, secondary.

Saw a negative review of Knives Out and Glass Onion that was essentially "movies like this shouldn't be about contemporary issues in the real world" and what are we doing here?

Does anyone actually like movies anymore?
