@richardkramen@floss.social Yup. I've considered moving the blog to a different platform for some time but still haven't found something I like.

Velma is described as a comedic origin story about the "unsung and underappreciated brains" of the iconic mystery-solving squad."

Really hope the thing is a rumor. But yeah, I am not interested in a PPGs full of angst and dismay. A shit day for animation, indeed.

A real shame about Blue Sky. A lot of talented people there and it was nice to have a major animation studio on the east coast.

Obviously Disney feels it is superfluous to requirements, but it could have had a place within the larger conglomerate and could even have been sold off.

Animation is booming despite COVID so that can't be a plausible excuse.

Curious that Animation Magazine referred to it as 'Disney's Toy Story' on their cover from the time of that film's release.
