@ToonHive Wow, I guess you really can only speak truth to power or have a career in the entertainment industry. That sucks. 🫤

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

nah, that's the exact crappy, patchy type of beard style you only get in your early 20s cause it won't get fuller till late 20s

[faye @rylandqrace]

Man, I just finished the New #KingOfTheHill Revival. Just as funny as I remembered it being, one of my all-time fav shows.
But seeing these end cards back to back felt like a gut punch to reality.😢 Rest in peace.

if anything this proves making a good game is not an accident or lighting striking like 90% of studios would make you think

it’s just institutional knowledge, allowing time to experiment, and not getting laid off every 3 years

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

Wow, they're really giving Donkey Kong the Studio Ghibli treatment.👀I really hope this raises the bar for every Nintendo game after, cause this is genuinely amazing.🤯

[Stealth @Stealth40k]

Donkey Kong Bananza is a Game of the Year contender.

This gave me chills.

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

Genuinely love these kind of well put together crossovers. love the detail of Bob sitting differently too.

FOX CARTOONS COLLAB TRAILER 🔥

(Thanks to @DrewDisneyDude for the info)

@jam_etc_art @bythebelle yep bout to say this, unless you're on a 1-2 minute of animation a week budget and forced to use the tween machine with zero time to polish lol. it happens🥲

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

It's fascinating seeing the splice of 2d anime stylistic choices adapted in 3D animated films more and more.

First trailer for ‘K-POP: DEMON HUNTERS’, a new film from Sony Pictures Animation.

Releasing June 20 on Netflix.

AI tech billionaires target art first because industries like medicine or engineering are heavily regulated — mistakes there can kill people and lead to heavy lawsuits. Art is unprotected, easy to scrape, and low-risk for them to exploit. 😒

[*leslie @LEZB0B0MB]

where did our urge to strip humanity from art even come from? how lower can we go as a species?

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

@slimjosa Billionaires don’t want AI to make art just because it’s “innovative” or “efficient.” They want it because art shapes human perception, and if they control the tools of creation, they control the narrative—forever.

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

what do you seriously have against human beings being in charge of making art?
It won't be you in charge of the AI that makes literature/film; it will be the billionaires that own everything, they want to shape all human perception indefinitely. that's the end goal as I see it.

ChatGPT 4o's new image gen is insane. Here's what Severance would look like in 8 famous animation styles 🧵

1/8:
Rankin/Bass – That nostalgic stop-motion look like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Cozy and janky.

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

@HannaBarberaCap I think there are less than a dozen people who used to be animators who could afford a yacht in the world. that line was definitely changed lmao.

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

@KyleTsetso I wish you the best of luck, Kyle.💪

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

This is a really great original adult animated show that isn't a reboot, superhero, or lowest-common-denominator sitcom. PLEASE GIVE IT A CHANCE WATCH IT!🥲

[Catsuka @catsuka]

The first episode of "Common Side Effects" is available for free on Youtube.

@charliepgavin Shrek's og style was to contrast the systemic cutsie style of Disney and parody it, and it did it flawlessly. There's nothing wrong with the new designs, but yeah this kind of goes against its original purpose.

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

@Arran_Baker I think it's super interesting seeing the discussion around Shrek both for and against it, it just kinda shows how big these movies' footprint has been culturally online fully unironically. 😯

[Charles Dan Benevento @CharlieDBravos]

@andrewpprice I understand making Shrek and Donkey look older, but why doesn't Fiona look older?

[Shrek @Shrek]

Far, Far Away's finest are coming.
