Spiderverse being delayed to TBA is 100% unsurprising. If the film is still as early in production as the other article implied, they won’t have laid down voice tracks yet, and that’s an animatic stage thing right there. And since it’s a film it’d be covered under SAG work.

As it is that other expose implied that…

Well they'd have to follow network TV rates, so pretty decent residuals based on ratings. 

It’s on a real network...but it’s a one off...so...yeah, probably.

We had full 2 year gap in theatrical releases between Spider-Man Far From Home and Black Widow, and an 18 month gap where there was nothing released theatrically or on streaming between Far From Home and Wandavision.

The real problem is that the train is out of the station and it can’t stop moving now...even with the…

After the third Avengers movie, that was it; it was all babble to her, and I have to admit, me too.

I’ve posted about this elsewhere on the same topic, but this is less of a tax loophole and more of a way to cover for the fact that the all-you-can-view buffet of streamers is an unsustainable model. All these streamers were throwing money at projects to bring in a commensurate amount of subscribers and that... just…

I remember a few years ago when I bought my first 4K Blu Ray player, I brought several boxes of DVDs and Blu Rays in to work and was giving them away after I had upgraded a large portion of my collection.  Some of my younger colleagues were like “Psshh.  Who even buys movies anymore?  I just stream everything.”  That…

Sure, but nobody is forcing you to buy a Blu Ray of Crater.  But if someone DID want that, it’s not an option anymore because the public has decided streaming everything is the way to go.  So now anybody who wants to watch Crater or anything else is at the mercy of whoever owns the streaming rights to it who can,…

Actually Steam did sell movies for a while a few years back. Had it’s own dedicated category and everything. But apparently there was so few takers that they shut it down in 2019. I wonder if it would have more success now, maybe even used for marketing the Steam Deck, but I kind of doubt it.

For what it’s worth, your DVDs will rot in time anyway! 

This is one of the main reasons I’m so frustrated about the death of physical media. Nobody can come over my house and throw my DVD collection away, but with streaming there’s no such guarantee. At the bare minimum I wish we had a movie version of Steam. Vudu is close, but with all the restrictions on the content…

This sucks because I really like their point and click adventure games - though it is a bit of a niche genre. It’s a sad sad reality of how the industry works that they are shutting. I went to school for game development but ended up just sticking with IT since it’s such a volatile environment. Studios and projects…

Wait...you take your 5 year old to/let him or her watch all the MCU movies?

“You hate the oppressive state of capitalism and how it uses deprivation to force you to work for less than you’re worth? How about we just steal your work and starve you anyway, how about that?”

It wasn’t exhausting because it was hard work. It was exhausting because Phil Lord is a crappy producer who doesn’t understand animation workflow.

I agree with the sentiment , but saying that this “cost human lives” means a different thing than what happened. But yes, I loved this movie, and it sucks that people were upset with the conditions under which it was made. 

You know, you CAN love the final product and still be dissapointed with how the studio abuses the VFX workers.

Friendly critique: You seem to have dropped the opening word in numerous sentences throughout the article.

I believe you’re missing the words “Final Fantasy XVI” at the beginning of 4 paragraphs, lol. Great write up though. I’m excited to take off of work tomorrow to play it all day!
