Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.
OpenAI confirms they're helping make an AI-generated movie called 'Critterz'
• Goal is to finish production in 9 months

Nic does incredible work, adore the tattoo they did for me
I posted this to Instagram, but I might as well post here too.
My Toronto books are (always) open!! I think sometimes folks think I'm super busy or all booked up, and that's rarely the case! I'm always down to take booking forms, and always posting new flash designs 🥰
Reposts appreciated!

Thinking about the AI Coke ad and this is my most "we used to be a real country" moment
1978 commercial for Jovan Sex Appeal aftershave animated by Richard Williams and based Frank Frazetta's painting 'Against the Gods'. Never for evil! 🔥🔥🔥
