Alright alright alright! The cover isn’t done and I’ve only posted part of Chapter 1 on my Patreon (more pages to be uploaded this weekend)

Work has been busy so Moonlighting *slams office door* (see what I did there) has taken a backseat briefly.

BUT I wanted to share the intro to my 80s romcom parody comic “Come With Me If You Want To Live!”

This is rated pg-13 like all great 80s flicks so all tiers will have access to the mullet fest!

Enjoy!

The Evolution of Style in 3D Film

I wanted to show how much theatrical animation has changed in the last few years. Incorporating 2D elements has always been attempted but was rare and went unnoticed. That’s not the case anymore with more adopting it, anime too!

thinking about. When Hamato Yoshi becomes Master Splinter

Especially 1987 but I think this applies to 2012 as well. maybe not so much Rise, but idk it could in some ways

Extremely traumatic to have your humanity taken from you in that way.

But let's also talk about the fact that this was done to him... by humans. His experience with humanity has been that they are violent, greedy, corrupt. Okay so that was mostly Shredder, but he also spent some time just out in the streets. I mean the story is different and focuses on different things with each Splinter but, rat or human, the base of the story is usually that he fled Japan (where he experiened extreme violence) and landed in New York City where he had nothing. The Splinters who were rats, canon deals more explicitly with their view of humans as.. not evil exactly (except mutant mayhem), but not good. In need of protection and guidance, at best.

But what about Hamato Yoshi rejecting his humanity? It was taken from him unwillingly, and for someone who likes to be in control it would make sense for his coping mechanism to be reinterpreting his situation as an ascent to something purer. And this could explain in a way how he trains the turtles to be heroes. Their family is above humanity, almost like instead of beasts he thinks of them as spirits. There has to be a word, right, for that literary device where the nonhumans are less corruptible? like Smurfs. does what I'm saying make sense

Basically his mutation made him a rat, and in order to avoid the trauma of his body being involuntarily changed I think he chooses to see this as a sacred experience. Rat > Human. He will be more sly, more disconnected from earthly vice, more resourceful, less wasteful.

Now contrast this with the turtles mutation experience.

Generally we don't see them wanting to go back to being regular turtles; they want to become more human. The mutagen didn't even 'mix' them with a human, it enhanced their strength and intelligence and a lot of other random wonky things that made them seem humanoid. For them becoming human-adjacent was the same thing as becoming aware. Without the mutagen, they wouldn't know each other's names, wouldn't be able to enjoy pizza or video games, certainly couldn't learn martial arts. From their pov, humans are above them on the scale. Humanity is something they chase, try to understand and immerse themselves in, and rejection from that world hurts.

Master Splinter, then, to them, took a big fall for them. I could almost compare it to a parent giving up a career in order to be a parent. The older they get the more they realize, first that it happened, and then that it had to happen because of them. They have to give him another chance at that other life, because it's their fault he lost it (from the pov, at least).

And I just. Think about when he scolds them for those human vices he's made himself believe his more animal state will help him overcome. Laziness, gluttony, envy (hoo boy envy. whole other post), selfishness. He pushes them to train, and keep the lair clean, to protect them from becoming what he once was.

And it's really sad because what he once was. Was human. Just human.

And it's the wrong word for the turtles, but it's the same concept. Just let your kids be human. Let them be teenagers. And to his credit, he does try. He allows them their pizza and video games and human friends. But he also seems constantly on guard for their sakes. Not only will the human world reject them, something he experienced himself and doesn't want to face, but it also has the power to ruin them. Like where they are is the ideal and becoming more human-like could make them.. more inherently bad. He wants to keep them in his own little world because he's crafted one where being what they are is an honor, not a shame. But he can't comprehend how, living under his roof, the turtles are still experiencing an entirely different world.

They don't ever truly get it, either, that he doesn't see his mutation the ay they do. And it's not that I don't think he ever sees becoming a rat as a fall from grace. I'm sure those feelings also exist. But he cultivates and acts on this other idea because it's simply more useful to him than self-pity. And that's really cool of him on some level! Empowering to reject humans just as thoroughly as they rejected him; he deserves a story where what happened to him all worked out for the best and was his destiny all along. It's just... he also didn't take the time to heal (how could he, given circumstances?), and that does affect how he treats his children.

Does any of this make sense? It's just a very interesting dynamic

#tmnt #tmnt 2012 #tmnt 1987 #1987 splinter #2012 splinter #character analysis #can't believe i brought up smurfs on a tmnt post #someday yall will learn about my dormant special interests #also a lot of unexpected bayverse feels in this post. but why? their splinter wasn't ever hamato yoshi #maybe because of how close they specifically were to being able to become human #which is also a thing in 1987 #2012 it's splinter being close to returning to human which is also big oof

Another game of chicken commences...

Paramount's all-animated TRANSFORMERS movie TRANSFORMERS ONE, now that its trailer is out, is set to open a week later than planned... September 20th... The same day as DreamWorks' THE WILD ROBOT...

Will someone blink? Or will both distributors commit to this and make for a Bluth-Disney style bot battle? Like LAND BEFORE TIME and OLIVER & CO., ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN and THE LITTLE MERMAID?

That remains to be seen. If one moves, I suspect it'll be THE WILD ROBOT. Probably ahead a few paces to early September to get some ground, or maybe to October where it'll largely have the month to itself. Either way, one's based on a book series, the other a biiiig franchise that has already seen multiple movies and TV shows over the course of five decades.

Elsewhere in Paramount's animation schedule, the new AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER animated feature vacated October 2025 and went to January 20, 2026. Perhaps it was to leave 2025 with two Paramount animated movies, SMURFS and SEARCH FOR SQUAREPANTS. AANG now shares 2026 with a third PAW PATROL movie and a MUTANT MAYHEM sequel, and possibly the second animated A:TLA movie. I'd imagine there's some more movement on their slate thereafter.

As for the trailer itself? The movie looks fun! Definitely a lot looser-looking than the live-action movies' hyper-detailed CGI counterparts. Heck, the faces kind of remind me of Carl the robot from MEET THE ROBINSONS... but I like how Cybertron is realized here, and the sorta workplace comedy dynamic with the Autobots. They're younger, much like the turtles are in MUTANT MAYHEM, so there seems to be that kind of energy in the script. Before they became who they are, and how different they are as younger robots. I'm curious to see how the film, or the trilogy that it's supposed to start should it do well, evolves these young Transformers and how Optimus and Megatron have their falling out. I wonder if it's going to be a thing in this film, or something in one of the sequels.

Either way, this seems like it'll be a cool ride.

Duck Soup (1933); AFI #60

The next film on the AFI top 100 is a throwback to before the Golden Age of Hollywood when "talkies" were new, Duck Soup (1933). This film was the last attached to a 5 feature contract that the Marx Brothers had with Paramount pictures. It was moderately well received at the time but has since become the most critically acclaimed of the Marx Brothers films. The movie is only 68 minutes and is absolutely packed with gags. It is not, however, packed with a storyline or plot. I want to very briefly go over the summary because that is not what this movie is known for. Let's unnecessarily start with...

SPOILER ALERT? THIS MOVIE HAS NO PLOT. IT IS ALL ABOUT SITE GAGS AND SET PIECES. READ AWAY!!! IT WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO HURT THE EXPERIENCE!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The film starts off with the wealthy Mrs. Teasdale (Margaret Dumont) insisting that a man that she is sweet on, Rufus T. Firefly (Groucho), be appointed leader of the small, bankrupt country of Freedonia before she will continue to provide much-needed financial aid. Meanwhile, neighboring Sylvania is attempting to annex the country. Sylvanian ambassador Trentino (Louis Calhem) tries to foment a revolution and to woo Mrs. Teasdale, and he tries to dig up dirt on Firefly by sending in spies Chicolini (Chico) and Pinky (Harpo).

After failing to collect useful information against Firefly, Chicolini and Pinky are able to infiltrate the government when Chicolini is appointed Secretary of War after Firefly sees him selling peanuts outside his window. Meanwhile, Firefly's secretary, Bob Roland (Zeppo), suspects Trentino's motives, and he advises Firefly to get rid of Trentino by insulting him. Firefly agrees to the plan, but after a series of personal insults exchanged between Firefly and Trentino, the plan backfires when Firefly slaps Trentino instead of being slapped by him. As a result, the two countries come to the brink of war. Adding to the international friction is the fact that Firefly is also courting Mrs. Teasdale, and, like Trentino, hoping to get his hands on her late husband's wealth.

Trentino learns from his femme fatale spy, Vera Marcal (Raquel Torres), that Freedonia's plans of war are in Mrs. Teasdale's safe and tells her to assist Chicolini and Pinky in stealing them. Chicolini is caught by Firefly and put on trial, during which war is officially declared, and everyone is overcome by war frenzy, breaking into song and dance. Chicolini and Pinky join Firefly and Bob Roland in anarchic battle, resulting in general mayhem.

After a fierce battle, the end of the film finds Trentino caught in a makeshift pillory, with the Brothers pelting him with fruit. Trentino surrenders, but Firefly tells him to wait until they run out of fruit. Mrs. Teasdale begins singing the Freedonia national anthem in her operatic voice and the Brothers begin hurling fruit at her instead.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are many exceptionally good and bad aspects of this film. On the good side, there are a couple of amazing set pieces that the Marx Brothers did like no other. The mirror scene in which Groucho and Harpo stand in front of each other and Harpo perfectly mimics his brother's movements was outstanding. Specifically, there is a point where Groucho stands outside the reflection and moves in a ridiculous way past what he thinks is a reflection. The mirroring between the brothers is exceptional. Add in the same dressing gown and cap to the actual resemblance (they are full actual brothers) makes for quite an effect. This mirror gag was first done on film by Charlie Chaplin almost 15 years earlier, but this is likely the most well known and best done example of the bit by real people. It was repeated by Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, The Pink Panther, Tom and Jerry, Scooby-Doo, and the Smurfs. That kind of mirror quality action was only repeatable through animation, apparently.

The constant wardrobe changes during the frenzied war scene have caused full speculative articles to be written. Groucho starts out in a Union officer suit, then appears in a Confederate officer suite, then a British palace guard uniform, and then in what looks to be a boy scout officer suit, and finally a Davy Crockett hat? The deep cynicism and anti-war sentiment of the brothers was blatant. It is summed up by the line "while you're out out there risking life and limb through shot and shell, we'll be in here thinking what a sucker you are." The United States had just gotten out of a war and many militaristic leads felt the need to show off. This lack of care after feeling so dominant following WW1 was the mindset that in part led to the Stock Market crash and the Great Depression. There was turmoil brewing in Europe and many Americans wanted nothing to do with it after seeing so many young boys getting ripped apart by trench warfare and machine gun fire. The brothers were satirizing all of those figures that we use to teach boys to want to fight for their country. They also went after what they believed were the causes of many wars: money and moral indignation between powerful men.

Although the film gives the audience insight into the mindset of much of the population during those extremely turbulent times between wars, it also boasts some of the most unsophisticated humor of a new visual medium. The silly songs do not translate well and sound like something created by a child. With truly clever artists like Frank Zappa, the Dead Kennedys, and national treasure Weird Al Yankovic, the Marx Brother's songs just sound lame to me. I think the same of Groucho's one liners. With comedians like Mitch Hedberg, Paula Poundstone, Steven Wright, and Jimmy Carr, the work of Groucho Marx feels seriously dated and quite cringy.

The real let down for me in this particular film was the fighting between Harpo and the Lemonade salesman. In fact, the character of Pinkie was "The Joker" levels of psychotic. I know he represented the constant undermining of communism. That is fine and makes a good point. Practically speaking, though, he reveled in causing problems for no reason and he was a constant nuisance. I have been around a lot of teachers and they sat that students who act like that are the bane of everyone's existence. It may be witty, but it is not funny. I have seen movies like Borat and Jackass, who are at least very creative in the way they cause problems and mostly harm themselves. I legitimately hate the character of Pinky and find him devoid of any real humor beyond the mirror scene. I also realize that Chicolini is a play on Mussolini, but I didn't really find him funny either. I want to emphasize that these are my opinions and I welcome comments on why Pinkie and Chicolini are hilarious.

There are some things that I do forgive and almost find charming. Directors from the silent film era had to emphasize that their actors over dramatize their lines so that the audience could get even a modicum of tone. This over-the-top dramatic speaking continued with many actors into the era of talking pictures. You can tell that this film was made near the change over because a lot of the actors talk like they are making one continual speech. Just about everyone is projecting for the cheap seats, and I totally appreciate it and smile. I also appreciate that the Marx Brothers absolutely jam pack the film with gags. I don't think many of the gags are funny, but I acknowledge that the movie is 68 minutes of constant jokes and the Marx Brothers made a concerted effort to give their audience the most bang for their buck. Good for them.

So does this movie belong on the AFI top 100? I am actually going to say no. I think that Horse Feathers is a funnier film and has the iconic football scene that got a screen cap on the cover of Time magazine. If the AFI was going to choose a Paramount produced Marx Brothers film, this one seems to me to only be second or third choice of the five. Would I recommend it? Sure. It is definitely dated and the jokes will not make a lot of sense any more, but some of the scenes have become iconic and it is fun to see what has been so heavily referenced in current media. It is a pretty fun movie to sit back and just experience for an hour, so I would give it a shot.

Sunshine and Shadows- Chapter 7

Nico found himself being frogmarched to the Poseidon table by Percy and Jason. When they reached the table, the three boys sat down, with Jason and Percy on either side of Nico.

Percy immediately picked up his cup and it filled automatically with what Nico now knew to be his preferred beverage of blue coke.

Nico turned to his own cup and took a small sip of his milk. He knew he could never cope with being lactose intolerant like Frank. Plant substitutes just never tasted the same, no matter how much Coach Hedge insisted that they were nicer.

Percy spluttered.

“Are you having milk with your main meal?”

Nico pointedly looked at Percy’s bright blue drink. The son of Poseidon shrugged

“Fair enough I guess”

Jason adjusted his glasses so that they sat higher on his nose.

“So Nico”

he said.

“Did Will tell you about our grand plan? Well, mainly Percy’s grand plan. He’s seen a lot more films than I have, and apparently my music taste “isn’t the kind of thing Nico would like”, whatever that means.

Percy interrupted,

“ I highly doubt that Nico would like it. Imagine Dragons? Really Jason? Really? Also your Miley Cyrus phase was more than any demigod should have to handle in a lifetime.”

Jason didn’t seem at all offended by this and simply turned to Nico.

“So what do you think? How about it? A sleepover in Percy’s cabin with movies and songs and hopefully popcorn.”

Nico nodded.

“Sounds good”

he responded, and the other two boys did some sort of co-ordinated celebratory dance where they sat. Looking over at Percy, he noticed that the son of Poseidon was eating blue spaghetti. Now, baked goods like pancakes and cookies, he could understand. He could even understand the coke. What he didn’t get was blue tomato sauce. That was just ridiculous. Percy could have stopped at having blue pasta, but no. He had to have blue tomatoes as well.

Jason noticed Nico’s incredulous look and grinned at him.

“I know, right? Any more and he’s going to become a smurf. Or maybe Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.”

Nico laughed. He had no idea what a smurf was, but the name sounded funny. He had once read a copy of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory from a pile of tattered paperbacks in Chiron’s office in the Big House when he’d first arrived at Camp Half-Blood, and turning into a blueberry seemed to be a very unfortunate fate.

“I’m out of the infirmary tomorrow, so we could maybe do it then?”

he suggested. Percy and Jason nodded. Percy launched into a long rant about the pros and cons of Dreamworks vs. Disney. Nico had heard of Disney, but he wasn’t sure about the films that Percy was talking about, and he’d definitely never heard of Dreamworks.

“... How to Train Your Dragon is an absolute masterpiece, but still, Disney has some absolute classics. Consider Aladdin or 101 Dalmatians.”

Why anyone would even have that many dogs was beyond Nico.

“And that’s not even the best dog one! Lady and the Tramp! Nico you have to watch that one! Jason, bro, help me out here. Let’s show him how the spaghetti scene works.”

Jason frowned

“I’m not sure I want to know what your weird blue spaghetti tastes like.”

He grumbled, while shifting Nico slightly so he had better access to the plate. Percy appeared to be in the process of aiming for and missing a meatball with his nose. When he saw that Jason was participating in his visibly mad plan, he grinned, and picked up the end of a bit of blue spaghetti with his mouth. Out of the corner of his mouth he said to Nico

“This is the really famous bit of the movie”

Except it came out more like

“Dif if de rewy famos bit of de moobie”

Thankfully, Nico had spent enough time aboard the Argo 2 to be able to translate Percy’s mouth-full talk, but he was still really confused as Jason took the other half of the spaghetti strand in his mouth and the two of most respected warriors of Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood began to eat their way towards the other’s mouth. When they got to the middle, Jason bit the spaghetti in two, and sat back down, wiping all traces of blue tomato sauce off his face.

Percy looked at Nico expectantly. He awkwardly sat there and sort of clapped while wondering what the hell he had gotten himself into. Percy and Jason both did an overly-dramatic bow.

Nico chuckled again. He liked having friends.

He remembered something from earlier

“Hey Percy, Will has something he wants to show you in a back room in the infirmary.”

Percy looked up, concerned.

“Last time he said he had something to show me, I ended up with several hours of watching Lillie, because her siblings didn’t want her to make a mess in the infirmary. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for babysitting as long as it doesn’t involve a child literally being so hyper they tried to escape out of the window.”

Nico laughed again as he pictured Percy trying to hold down a hyper little girl trying to escape, all while making sure he didn’t hurt her and avoiding the puppy eyes of a desperate child seeking all sorts of mayhem.

“No, it’s not Lillie. You should just come and see it. I’m sure Will will allow Jason to come too, if he behaves himself.”

Jason squawked in mock outrage at this and Percy and Nico laughed at his expression. He pouted down at his fries as Percy tried to get Nico to tell him what the surprise was.

“Soooo… what is it? Pleaseeee!!! Tellllll meeeeeeeeeeee!!!!”

Nevermind Lillie, Percy’s puppy eyes were very hard to resist. He had no idea how Annabeth ever managed to tell him no. Nico solved the problem by turning around and looking at Jason, who now had a smirk on his face.

“Hmmph”

Percy huffed.

“We’d better get this meal done so I can find out what it is”

Ok so i was aware that Shmoo was some sort of previously existing character from another popular thing, kinda like the smurfs which is why HB crossed him over with the flintstones and gave the fucker his own scooby clone show but i did NOT know that he came from the lil abner comics aka the same comics that heavily inspired the creation of daisy mayhem and her pig and the fact that these characters are all hb could do with their failed lil abner adaptation is just a bruh moment

#you want a drug trip?Read shmoos wiki article #hanna barbera #laffalympics #shmoo #daisy mayhem #sooey pig #lil abner

Western Animated Movie Sequel Timeline

For reference... On how few theatrical animated movie sequels were made in the West vs. how many have been made since the early 2000s... (Streaming titles like THE SEA BEAST 2 will be included, because these are big budget enough to have been theatrical releases.)

Titles highlighted in blue have commas in them, this denotes that you're not looking at two separate titles. (Just in case you happen to not know-)

I also won't include reboots. For example: The upcoming Paramount Animation film TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM, which despite being a TMNT movie, it has no other relation to the Imagi Studios 2007 TMNT movie. The same goes for the two SMURFS reboots, 2017's THE LOST VILLAGE and Paramount's untitled upcoming musical.

I'll also leave out animated movies that are part of franchises that are largely live-action, like STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS.

Everything About Us || Joel Miller x OC || Part 2

Hi hello hello, this Fic bounces back and forth in time so its fully a slow burn, y’all have been warned AGAIN

Warnings: Language, Gore,

PART 1

CHAOS .

It was absolute, utter chaos.

Sirens blared through the city as explosions ravished the business district. The earth tremors with each blast, but it most definitely felt like it was a product from the sea of people on foot running in every direction away from the epicentre of explosions. The screams of terrified people mixed together with guttural raging shouts only added the urgency to what was going on.

No one knew what was going on.

“Quinny, hurry up!” The panicked voice of a boy shouted upon losing sight of his nine-year old sister. He had turned to see her struggling to keep up with the adults' long strides and grips her hand tightly, ensuring that no matter what, she wasn’t breaking away from their family group.

No one knew what was going on, least of all a nine year old. She trusted her brother nonetheless, allowing him to pull her so hard as they zig zagged throughout the city's outskirts that it felt like he’d rip her arm out of its socket. All she remembered was being shaken awake by her incredibly terrified dad, who urgently pressed on to the family they needed to leave.

Another close explosion ripped through the city, the shockwaves sending more rubble flying outward and crippling scaffolding off from a nearby building. It tumbled down in both Quinn and her brother's direction, he was quick to stop them in their tracks to prevent getting pinned down by the heavy equipment.

God knew how close behind those patients were, no one had seen anything like it — except maybe in fiction from all the zombie movies and games the boy had played.

Through the darkened alley way, he had just managed to catch a glimpse of the silhouettes that were his family run away, oblivious to the fact they were now down two family members.

“Holy fuck …” Another voice panted, startling the older boy at first and making him do a double take upon seeing his younger brother beside him. Make that three .

The oldest brother looked around, seeing nothing but mayhem unfold around them, he didn’t recognise the streets or landmarks, given that most of the city had been engulfed by flames as a direct consequence of the explosions. Hell, he didn’t even know where anything was, they weren’t even from around here. “Fuck… Fuck! Eli, take her. We needa keep going, yeah?”

Eli looked up at how dishevelled and messy his older brother looked, rubble coated his features he was almost unrecognisable. His eyes trailed down to his younger sister who anxiously looked around, sucking in her breaths as she so obviously didn’t want to cry. Not in front of her big brothers. Not when they made fun of her for crying most of the time.

“C’mon Quinny…” He held her hand and followed the oldest of the three, hoping that he at least had some semblance of an idea where to regroup with the rest of the family. The explosions never ceased in the background as neither did the intense screams for help, Eli looked behind him just in time to see one of those manic patients make a meal out of a thug who had seen the chaos as an opportunity to loot from a nearby store. “Jesus Christ — Ezra, we need to go!”

At the very sound of his panicked voice, the patient looked up at the trio, eying them as if he had stumbled across a three course meal. Not a second later the three had broken into a sprint, Eli lifting his sister up to carry her knowing she’d be unable to keep up.

The only direction Ezra had been positive he was heading was away from the city, they passed along an extensive line of cars on what was most likely a major highway leading in and out of the city. Many had been left abandoned in haste, many still had terrified people inside of them.

He turned both out of instinct and curiosity as he simply just witnessed Detroit getting blown to kingdom come. An array of explosions sounded off in the distance, lighting up the night sky and sending him into a panic. The expression on his face provided little comfort to both his younger siblings, he was quick to recompose himself, “Look, something scary is going on -“

“No shit sherlock it’s a fucking virus! Mate, look around! The military just fucked this joint up good, if it's that bad they’d already be setting up quarantine areas somewhere.” Eli grew angry, it was only to mask the complete and utter terror he felt underneath all of it. Despite his cadet training, it seemed that when faced with impending doom his training had completely slipped his mind.

His words alone procured some hope that the rest of their family may be able to make it to a safety area. No doubt they had already figured out the three were missing, and like always were most definitely worried. As they should be.

Ezra pressed on, getting enough distance from the city where they can recollect their thoughts and think of something. He was by all means not equipped at all nearly as much as his younger brother when it came to surviving, his own interests barely extending further than drinking, girls and his trade work.

The line of cars had lengthened more than they first thought, it seemed like almost everyone was trying to get out before the bombs hit.

It was much quieter as the trio slipped out from the vicinity of the city outskirts. The occasional mewl from scared people had piqued their ears, but other than that it had been quiet. Most often than not it was the slightest whimper falling from Quinn’s lips, followed by a sniffle as she tried so desperately hard to not make her tears noticeable.

Eli put a comforting hand on her shoulders, trying to keep her focused on the two brothers and not anything else.

“I wanna go home.” Her voice cracked, her hands hugged her body as they slowly drudged through the sea of cars. What were once brightly colour pajamas decorated with smurfs, had rubble pressed into them as well as scarlet stains of blood to which she thankfully hadn’t noticed.

Ezra looked down at her with sympathy, “I know, chook…” He placed a delicate hand on her head, giving her messy dark hair the slightest of ruffling, “we just need some place to conk out for the night… then tomorrow we go find Mum, Dad and Lily, yeah?”

She nodded, holding her body close with thoughts of her parents and baby sister.
