Honestly we'd be a much better world if all art from over fifty years ago were just available for free instead of locked behind pay-to-watch streamers, overpriced home video releases, or just non-existent beyond piracy. Public domain takes too long and copyright owners usually suck.
After leaving HBO Max earlier this year, ‘Looney Tunes’ is a hit on Tubi, the company says, and popular across generations. It should be a model for every classic cartoons trapped in streaming limbo.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.
His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.
A massive loss 💔

Hamish Steele, the creator of Dead End: Paranormal Park has done absolutely nothing wrong other than daring to use his 1st Amendment rights against the unconstitutional ideology of Charlie Kirk.
He is beloved by his colleagues in the animation industry and deserves better.

Disney, if there’s any time that you can restore some good faith with the people and the country you’re in, then you side with Kimmel and defend his free speech. This is not a good look that you’re letting this bullying from these terrorists happen.
this is quite genuinely insane, and I want to believe the backlash to this will be severe
