Rica Eastleah - Never Gonna Give You Up (Bardcore)

So this IS HAPPENING… https://deadline.com/2025/03/coyote-vs-acme-warner-bros-sale-complete-ketchup-1236354552/ Scribbler note: I didn't know CvA is only the second full screenplay from Samy Burch, who used to write audition materials. I guess that was good practice, because May December was nominated for Best Original Screenplay. Not a bad way to kick off a career, but CvA is one weird followup to a very dark comedy.

Klaus Nomi - Simple Man

Final trailer: More corridors. For “different kind of mission”, read “suicide.” Bix on the farm planet looking happy. Does look like a Talz. They know about the Death Star… “the monster will come for us all”. “Revolution is not for the sane” is a superb line, btw.

That's kinda what I heard.

Kinda think the cat's out of the bag now... ...then again, if we're going for multiversal-collapse malarkey, you can still defeat any given character but have another one show up from a different 'verse. Also, in the comics...

Okay: we have an anno video for the entire cast... And it is worth listening to just for some of the neat musical cues in here too 😄 But for reference, we get - and this ALSO may give spoilers for F4 Thunderbolts, so BEWARE...

The Cramps - Tear It Up

Regenerating this thread for the Season 2 Trailers... So it looks like the big arc is that Earth's current timeline has been erased from existence. Whether that's the Doctor's fault, some kind of accident, or an Evil Plan of some kind. Also, someone's been playing a lot of Cuphead. And everybody's just gotta have an animated episode as well as a musical these days. But between that and the old Fleischer cartoons, they still didn't skimp on being scary as all hell, so... BTW - while searching, found one of those old Google hidden games...

Oddly enough, I have run into a lawyer that size Stateside - and yes, charismatically evil. Also hot. But evil.

Question: what’s black and white and red all over? Answer: MY MIGHTY STEED, COVERED IN THE BLOOD OF MINE ENEMIES

So, adding some news. As Day The Earth Blew Up is doing reasonable numbers even outside holiday season, Ketchup are now going after a bigger prize: Coyote Vs. Acme. The flick is a live action/animation Looney Tunes courtroom drama - and surprisingly biting satire - starring Will Forte (opportunistic but probably good hearted lawyer) and John Cena (definitely evil corporate lawyer). In a nutshell, our New Mexican friend decides to sue for decades of injury and abuse at the hands of clearly unsafe and unworkable products. Underhand stuff vs toon chaos naturally ensues. It was produced by James Gunn, is apparently one of those smart flicks that's written on multiple different levels... ...and became a symbol of the same corporate garbage it was satirising when WB vaulted it for tax reasons. The price to get it out is now a more sensible $50m instead of the $80m to $100m WB were originally asking for. Let's see how that goes...

They may pick it up again in this part. Or parts, if I’ve read right: I’ve heard this season comprises of three interlocking stories with large time jumps between them, dropping us off at Rogue One. So it’s possible she’s involved in one of them, or he spends some of that intervening time doing the looking and we pick it up when he’s back on the trail. Or they just drop and fridge her, which would disappoint.

It looks like you need to be witnessed. Would you like to: 🔘Be legendary 🔘Be mediocre

No fridge so cold as a fridge in space. I'm hoping Tony's too good to go for that ancient, creaking, irritating story beat. Then again, we've only seen two to three minutes tops out of nine hours(ish) of content between these two trailers, and a lot of that was sizzle reel 'splodey stuff. If she must be 'fridged, let her go out in the most glorious double-wide fridge with its own ice dispenser, icing as many Imps along the way as she can.

Nice little EPK for you - and I think they heard you. We now have a grand total of 3 (three) aliens visible: two posh Senators, and what looks like Chewie's Canadian cousin. Also - I wonder if we know, or will know, that kid running across the wide open prairies...

Think you'd need a sensor rig on the towed vehicle as well to monitor for vibrations and path deviation. That reminded me of another "stated experience": depths of winter, going up a hill in the wilds of Norfolk, following a BP petrol tanker truck. Seemed to be struggling a bit with the ice. Then stopped. Then started coming back down. Then the trailer started coming out sideways, occupying the entire road. Luckily there was enough grass verge to duck out onto, but neither I nor my IBS are fond of things like that. As my instructor said: "Remember, 99 out of 100 drivers on the road are idiots." "So I'm supposed to be the good one?" "No, they're an escaped psychopath. People will always, always do what you don't expect, so Remember The Box." Defensive Driving's kept me safe. If paranoid and cautious, to the extent my 6-year-old niece takes the mick out of me. The reaction from the driver felt fairly genuine, but I wouldn't put it past them if they had to run a take 2 (or more) and take 1 wasn't satisfying enough.

Without getting into the politics of it, I don’t think FSD/Autopilot is going to be fully safe for ground vehicles for many, many years if ever. There’s just too much random stuff to interpret in a ground environment that you can’t predict: especially other humans, who seem to behave like hungry coyotes on rocket cycles quite a lot of the time. (eg: late night on the M25, London’s big beltway and sigil of low-grade evil, someone threw a yacht at me. Towing it way too fast, it started bouncing uncontrollably before spinning out, yanking the towing Range Rover around sideways, snapping the hitch and sending the car up the verge, while the yacht bounced off the central barrier and skidded back across the road. Dodged it but was kinda shaken up for a while. Unless there’s an area of Florida with land pirates, not something you’d program for.)

MEEP MEEP… …all you need is the Free Bird Seed sign. Wonderfully silly, Top Gear style vid with a serious side: how good are cameras for self-drive (on Teslas and some others) vs the likes of LIDAR (Volvos, Polestars etc)?

If you’re a little tired of reading conspiracies and apocalyptic stuff in the news… …how about a 90-minute, full-on old school Looney Tunes flick about [checks notes] …an impending apocalypse and an alien conspiracy? It’d been sitting in WB vaults for a couple of years and could have been Batgirl’d, due to the re-org of Cartoon Network and the HBO Max reboot. But it got an outing and rave reviews at the Annécy Animation Festival, then a limited release and now a surprise wide from indie distributors Ketchup. There’s nods to classic 50s and 70s sci-fi (it’s not giving away much to say The Stuff is a big influence) and as solid a plot as a ‘Tunes could carry. Better than quite a few proper sci-fi movies I could mention… Also please send your applause and probably some throat sweets to the man that is Eric Bauza, who voices both leads and is effectively arguing with himself for six reels. If it’s on at your local ‘plex, you could do a lot worse than spend some time with a couple of your childhood companions.
