God they all look dead inside while the guy in the middle looks like he’s about to collapse from an overdose

I mean, yes. lol. Funniest film I have seen in a while as well.

Like do I still like his films? Yes but this is just…woof

Former Pixar employee u/PixelatedRonin fires back at chief creative officer Pete Docter on Reddit over claims on LGBT storyline cut from 'Elio' (2025):

Like I just posted, fans and folks need to make a bigger deal about the toxic workplace nonsense that has festered in places like Pixar. No more stanning, fanboying, or dying on a hill for a studio, this is a huge problem that needs to be fixed.

Animation fans need to stop treating animation studios like they are mascots and game consoles (which was already a dumb thing), and focus on how places like Pixar have a really toxic workplace environment that does stomp on creativity. There are bigger issues at hand. Focus!

Paramount Eyes Changes to Historic Studio Lot Following Warner Bros. Merger The lot has hosted productions for films such as 'The Godfather,' 'Titanic' and the 'Mission: Impossible' franchise.

Seeing this article make the rounds this week and here's what I could see happening to both lots and, spoilers, it's nothing good. 🧵

How Pixar’s Open Sexism Ruined My Dream Job (Guest Column) A former Pixar employee writes that after John Lasseter's departure, the company still has a lot of work to do to fix its sexist culture.

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

I still love and recommend seeing Hoppers because it's a darn good movie, but I won't judge folks who don't want to see it until a certain point in time because of Pete Docter's recent antics. It sucks in a weird, ironic way for the guy behind UP, Soul, and Inside Out to have said those things.

So, animation "fans" are mad for some asinine reason that Tom Kenny was in the recent Helluva Boss Short? Do these friggin losers have any real life or actual worries, or are they just that inept and dimwitted to find time in their short, pointless lives to be mad at this nothing burger topic?

I really loved Pixar’s HOPPERS. I reviewed it for LA Times 🦎🦫👑

Rogan is a dense fucking idiot who won’t change at all. People keep forgetting that. He’s a right wing grifting idiot who will believe anything if you give him a hundred dollar bill.

Also Oscar voting ended yesterday so…

America's future looks bleak (and boring). Anti-intellectualism is in vogue. The arts are being punished by AI/funding cuts. Hollywood is merging into a bland singularity that greenlights safe slop. Cool people who can afford it are leaving, and teachers are quitting because kids can't/won't learn.

Time to see how I hip and hop with Pixar’s new movie Hoppers. #animation #animationsky #hoppers #pixar #disney

I feel like I have seen it show up at film markets since at the very least 2024-25, but this is also the struggle with keeping track of when these films come out, since I'm trying to use Annecy timing of when we will finally hear something about the films. also very little info doesn't help.

Isn't the film complete, though? Not Moore's, but Julian? This is always the case with foreign features. We know they exist, but we don't hear or see anything about them until around May/June for the most part.

How I arrived on Bluesky

A global phenomenon, KPOP DEMON HUNTERS is nominated for 2 Oscars. For LA Times (De Los) I profiled Danya Jimenez, the Mexican American talent from Orange County who co-wrote the animated hit.

32 SXSW Film Festival 2026 films to explore. SXSW, SXSW 2026, film festival, recommendation

The 2026 edition of @sxsw.com kicks off next week and there's a *long* list of titles screening throughout.

Myself, @dubsreviews.bsky.social, & AJ Friar are covering remotely and put together a list of titles we hope to screen for ourselves. Maybe it'll help you put together your own list. #SXSW

huh weird that's...odd. I guess Discotek or GKIDS couldn't get their hands on it. Because GKIDS recently got the film that follows this up.

I really wish the Goddess character in Sentenced to Be a Hero had a lower-pitched voice (and not kid-shaped) and that it had more interesting female characters, but among the fantasy shows from the Winter season, it has a lot more going for it than 99% of fantasy anime. #animesky #animationsky

What the ever-loving hell did the folks behind The Testament of Ann Lee get to deserve such a historically bad marketing campaign, bad rollout, no Oscar noms, and no physical release? Is Criterion going to have to come in to save the day or something?
