There is nothing quite like a Filipino birthday party. I am well fed, well partied, my voice is destroyed, and I knew almost nobody there. It’s glorious.

I’m not kidding when I say this movie might be the most fun I’ve ever had in a theater. The entire theater (packed, mind you) was cracking up the entire time. There was rarely a pause.
It was just such a blast so keep an eye out for it. Everybody needs to see Nobody!

This is the film 'Nobody' I've been talking about. Honestly there is nothing special in the animation techniques used in this film. But the way they combine them with interesting visual storytelling and fun characters elevates the entire film!
2D animation is booming in theaters. In China, the film Nobody is outgrossing many of Hollywood's recent CG films—on a $10< million budget.
It's only one example. As 2D films rise, Hollywood's decision to kill them off looks shortsighted. We explore:

How many of these pretty much identical ai art posts do I have to push “see less like this” and block before Bluesky gets the message that I would like to see less like this?

Hey maybe not all politics has to suck these days! Even so, my annual rewatch of V for Vendetta was a lovely time on this fine fifth of November

Skelly Closet Cases (Pilot Animatic)
Welcome to the Skelly universe. 💀 This is “Closet Cases,” the pilot episode that started it all. Meet Sarah Kazner — an overworked designer barely keeping it together — and the skeleton who quite literally lives in her closet. Together, they navigate burnout, identity, and what it means to confront the things we hide. This project has been a year in the making — powered by indie creators, late nights, and pure passion. If you believe in independent animation and stories that dig deep (and make you laugh along the way), you’re in the right place. 🦴 Sit back, grab your Bone Water, and enjoy the ride. Welcome to Skelly. #Skelly #ClosetCases #IndieAnimation #SupportIndieCreators #AnimationCommunity

Once again, I feel it’s a crime this wasn’t originally released theatrically. So many details go missed on smaller screens.
But also look what previews I got! Excited to rewatch both of those.

I fear finishing this will have to wait until tomorrow because I have spent far too long on it tonight. My ambition leads only to ruin.
Something like this should not have been my return to pumpkin carving after a decade of not carving anything haha

Huge congratulations to all the lovely people at @cinemafantasma.bsky.social for the AIF screening and Mexico premiere of “Soy Frankelda!”
It feels so classic and timeless, like a film people should already have been loving for decades.
Your souls are ink. I can’t wait to see what you create next.

Arco was incredible. Throughout the whole thing, I was blown away by the animation and world. At times in the middle, I thought it’s just a family adventure movie I’ve seen before and the animation carries it.
But by act 3, no. All of that clicks into place in ways it didn’t during the watch. (1/2)

Animation Is Film has wrapped up for this year and it was such a blast!
I loved everything I saw, but I think I need to crash before saying anything about the last things I watched haha.
They were all excellent though. It was a great lineup this year

Very crazy movie that was such a blast. I had never read the manga or watched Edge of Tomorrow so I had no idea what to expect, but it sounds like they tried to go for a more hopeful tone this time around. I really liked the way they went around doing that.

What a strong opening night! While it’s got its weak spots for sure, I do very much recommend watching this if you’re a fan of Hosoda’s style.
I very much enjoyed it and think the different animation styles they used really served each purpose well
