I FUCKING LOVE NYLE xkjsjndkjansd
!["Yes I am afraid this is true," Cervone wrote in a post on Instagram Tuesday evening. "[Scoob: Holiday Haunt] is practically finished and turned out beautifully. I am beyond heartbroken."](https://64.media.tumblr.com/b84ccaecf4ed79cc05b5cc888c1c20dc/2e63697c2b204ad4-e0/s500x750/5c848443100914cfa60464e40c45936a5edc1f92.png)
!["It's heartbreaking to put so much time into a project and then have it not release," a second staffer said. "[Nimona] didn't look like anything else in the animated world. It's a big loss of effort and time."](https://64.media.tumblr.com/89691dc5cbeb2f0410f4c8c763d0e05d/2e63697c2b204ad4-51/s500x750/d35823983f31f8945b1f1e3cb16bc0a16f442bb7.png)
![Elsewhere, the [directors of Batgirl] appeared most let down by the fact that audiences were robbed of the opportunity to judge the movie for themselves. "We didn’t get the chance to show Batgirl to the world and let the audience judge for themselves,” added El Arbi. "Because the audience really is our ultimate boss and should be the deciders of if something is good or bad, or if something should be seen or not."](https://64.media.tumblr.com/04a87f22c61434646347f8e622852444/2e63697c2b204ad4-07/s500x750/48c627f2bb24c9ebef6ec0817d35b25f317349d8.png)
![Deadline reports that the Dave Green-directed film [Coyote vs. Acme], which tested extremely well with audiences, won’t even be offered to other companies, even though Amazon was interested in acquiring it for its streaming service. The tax write-off is apparently more valuable to Warner Bros. than any potential third-party pick-up.](https://64.media.tumblr.com/9f20a8e6af9261b77733b5e8b2b8992e/2e63697c2b204ad4-b9/s500x750/2b529a6d9c92a43b2266ee41c79eef86304c3bc4.png)
![Netflix tries to make itself more appealing to TV show producers by giving them bonuses and pay bumps the longer a series carries on. Harrington says that shows on Netflix are more expensive after season two and even more expensive after season three, with the premiums going up each season. “They have to give [a show] more money per series, and if they decide to recommission it, it becomes more expensive for them to make,” he explains. “Because of that, so many more shows are cancelled after two series because it costs them more.”](https://64.media.tumblr.com/c754cc4413ded5ede4298f08fb17edc8/2e63697c2b204ad4-74/s500x750/a137a5e7ed2a0e59a2de997753550caf26c41363.png)
![[Disney] could have let Blue Sky finish its last production. They could have allowed a very different kind of young heroine. They could have just dumped it to streaming and made money — which, considering they’d already bought the entire damn studio and the production, would essentially have been free money — which you would think is the actual purpose of a corporation. But, I suppose, they don’t have the ancillary rights to merch and straight-to-video sequels and a Nimona character in the parks, so fuck sharing and getting 94% of the benefit.](https://64.media.tumblr.com/fa9d27ede6a5d39c343fc83127336939/2e63697c2b204ad4-51/s500x750/1b64bed4eeaa3e5fe73dba6fda5e6e314be0b1db.png)
![Part of Duffield’s frustration, he says, was that Green did everything that was asked of him: He delivered [Coyote vs. Acme], which sources say cost $72 million, on budget. He hit the right test scores. He even moved away from his friends and family to London for 18 months to save the studio money on postproduction costs. All this, only to see his film get run off a cliff.](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f67b20639bc22e341d95b2e975e5df48/2e63697c2b204ad4-b6/s500x750/b7948fa713dcb68c611f5fb67cd8c2f6f42344a5.png)
![Writer-director Brian Duffield, who saw the completed film [Coyote vs. Acme], wrote that the feature “tested in the high 90s repeatedly” with audiences. “It also had interested buyers,” Duffield said. “The people working at Warner Bros are anti-art and I hope multiple anvils drop on their heads.”](https://64.media.tumblr.com/4a2bf9e16c19a9735c33580f13d71056/2e63697c2b204ad4-34/s500x750/68c1f4589260eecdc32c143b1c1901b6adce245a.png)

They’re scared because they know that the public is with Luigi.
They’re violating his rights because they need to maintain capitalism.
Keep talking about Luigi.

Here is your mission.
Lyra, my beloved cat of 13 years, passed away this year on Father's Day. She's been by my side through very difficult times and was my little rock of steady and unrelenting love. I struggled a lot drawing this, and struggled a lot posting it, but I know I would've wanted to read a comic like this that validated my grief for her when I lost her.
Wherever you are, Lyra my little summer star, I love you always! Thank you for being the best thing in my life.

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?
would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?
I needed this drag. Let’s change guys and not look back
Janet Mills is all of us. Fcuk you, First Felon.
MAGA will implode as We The People rise and punch these Nazis in the face.
Literally sobbing. A judge, a US judge defended us. A judge brought up intersex people, uaing the term intersex, to *defend* us by not allowing our erasure. I'm having a lot of feelings right now
