"If you were, like me, a fan of Stephen King movies or Fear Street novels, Book of Evil will make you nostalgic for strange tales of adventure and terror." - @comicsbeat@Ssnyder1835 and @Jock4twenty's Book of Evil, a blend of prose and illustration, is now available in paperback!

Saw Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga in IMAX for the third time. Bought 3 booklets. The chase scene with Octoboss (the name is like MGS). It still makes me roar no matter how many times I see it. The rhythm of the movement and the attacks backwards, forwards, under the truck, in the air and on the truck, the direction and the camera. The "glue space" between the action sequences is well defined, so it is easy to understand even when the positions are changed. This kind of connection cannot be achieved by shooting with multiple cameras simultaneously and then editing. It is a miracle that everything was calculated and studied in the pre-visualization and realized with stunts and VFX. This is action art. The way the chase is introduced is also well done. A sidecar driven by a black octopus crosses the road, where we get a glimpse of his skate shoes. After that, a moving camera from behind frames the chase in a single shot. The skate gimmick is revealed, the parachute opens, and the octopus emerges. The parachute octopus on the other side of the track also appears, and the camera rises with it, spinning above the track (and replacing the parachute), leading to the attack and defense with the Warboys. Only George could have done such a complex one-shot. Sigh. I'm going to see it again, not in IMAX, but in CinemaScope, and then the Japanese dubbed version.
5 months ago Patrick Harpin walked into @wbpictures @DCofficial and pitched a ๐๐ข๐ต๐ฎ๐ข๐ฏ ๐๐ฆ๐บ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฅ Animated Feature.
Before we pitched, they warned us "there is absolutely no way we can do a ๐๐ฆ๐บ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฅ movie", but they loved our enthusiasm. We pitched the outline for the entire film, and what started as a 'never' turned into a 'maybe'.
In the time since, we've been pitching our way up the company hoping to get to @jamesgunn. But for now, here's a taste of what we've been cooking.

Was so geeked to hear other elementary students presenting on a Kojima game for a mandatory โcurrent eventsโ speech in 4th grade due to it making mainstream news as โa game that encourages kids to go outsideโ. U kno I had to interrupt their speech and yell โhe also did MGS!!โ
It seems I have been acknowledged by creating games that go against the current of the times, such as "hide-and-seek" games where you sneak into a building without being detected by the enemy, or "delivery games" where you enjoy moving around in an open world, For me, the most experimental game was "defeating vampires outside your house" using actual sunlight around you. It was met with fierce opposition from the staff and even within the company. In that sense, "OD" is just as different.

Big US studios shuttered their 2D animation divisions under the false pretense that it was too expensive. Now their CG films cost more & require a larger labor force.
Meanwhile, one of the finest films of the year - Robot Dreams - is a 2D Spanish production that cost only $6M.
