Rey Mysterio Jr. x Psicosis. The birth of the nWo changed the course of wrestling history, but looking at the style of wrestling that dominates every major company today, the long-term influence of the match that opened the ‘96 Bash was also monumental. (7.7.1996) 🌟

@DanGuy96 Happens to the best of us.

@DanGuy96 @Exalted_Speed It was the tone with a lot of the characters, this whole “No, this is cool. You’re an idiot for not thinking this is a good thing.” It’s an Adam who proves he’s a hero without a sword but still thinks being a barbarian hero is awesome.

@DanGuy96 @Exalted_Speed For Voltron the rumors everyone hates it stem from a VoltCon panel where Bob Koplar, when discussing working with Dreamworks and Universal about the movie, said DW “did not get Voltron.” The actors said the movie was about Voltron, and that it doesn’t skimp on the robot fights.

@ShadowGLArtist @UltraNosk Hey, it's the show you can't legally watch anymore.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@Exalted_Speed @DanGuy96 There was definite contempt for He-Man with Stevenson, and that contempt seemed to be returned in kind for SPOP by Travis Knight.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@DanGuy96 @Exalted_Speed And that box set is still a bare-bones release. SPOP didn't even get that much (although part of me suspects Mattel doesn't want them to release it in any capacity). And that show is dogged by the rumors that everyone involved in the movie hates it.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@Wheeljack83 Good question, although in Amazon's case since their primary revenue driver is advertising (specifically getting people to buy stuff on Amazon) I imagine a lot of it based on the ad rates and how much traffic https://t.co/WfE5arkD67 gets.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

With the toys apparently selling well and the fairly positive audience, I do believe this is a big level set meant to be a new base for the franchise after a lot of recent missteps and Amazon expects to make it up on the back end.

[Cartoon History @Cartoonhistory2]

Amazon / MGM has released a statement about the Masters of the Universe movie and it looks like they are happy with the box office returns so far.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@Wheeljack83 Streaming revenue, riders for the merch that are presumably baked into the licensing agreement, and similar things of that nature.

[jak-o’-lantern ⧗ 🎃 @arcticferns]

what’s with this new trend of announcing a game and then immediately killing all hype by revealing they used generative ai during development

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@kevinbolk @Cranberryscause I fully expect this to blow up on streaming, but it’s easier to get the crew to a comedy.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

Oh God, here we go again…

I’m pretty sure this confirms Prime Video is getting the Energon Universe. But I question the wisdom after the movie and the comic Kickstarter BARELY cracked $100k.

A live-action ‘JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS’ series is in the works at Prime Video.

Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan (‘Fallout’) are producing the series.

The dog is cute. That is admittedly Step 1.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

First teaser for the live-action ‘SCOOBY DOO’ series.

Releasing in 2027 on Netflix.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@BlueIkeTweets The movie makes it obvious he’s into Teela for what it’s worth.

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

They tried that with SPOP, and you can no longer legally watch the show.

I still expect the movie to blow up on Prime Video.

[nebula should have killed thanos @gwenstacying]

He-Man is never going to keep a proper foothold in popular culture until they suck it up and make a version of him gay. I know this because they made a She-Ra gay and now I willingly chose to remember there’s a character out there named Netossa

THE PROPHECY

[Ranting Man @Beatman1]

@Exalted_Speed Harsh. True but…harsh.

[Exalted Speed @Exalted_Speed]

I have to meet the kid who had to deal with divorce by listening to the wizard from he-man and the dad from growing pains, like is there a weird trauma where you see Orko and flashback to your parents fight?
