I watched A24's "Warfare" over the weekend and can't stop thinking about it.
Intense, visceral, great audio.

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently.
I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

This song still gets to me every time. It was the only time in a movie theater I literally had my breath taken away. The moments of silence were so impactful, you could hear a pin drop. I'd love to relive it.

I think what’s so frustrating is executives talking about “getting swagger back” by releasing good games *in order to* increase investment, whereas every dev I know just wants to release good games when they’re ready *in order to* keep sustainably making good games that players like.
At Polygon @mmcwhertor.bsky.social reports on the email the head of global streaming and games for Warner Bros. Discovery sent to staff announcing the closures in which he talked about "getting our swagger back" one fiscal quarter at a time. www.polygon.com/news/529310/...
