I wonder if selling off the company is related to the investigation into the frat house culture at WetaVFX.

He's still majority owner of Weta, just sold the tech rights from what I gather

Am I allowed to ignore this and pretend Richard Taylor would never stand for such things?

Speaking of Peter Jackson, I wonder if we'll ever see his Dambusters raid remake.

There are like 4 or 5 'Weta' companies. And afaik it was just WDFX that was subject to the misconduct allegations.

There was so much pr0n flying around their emails they apparently had to upgrade server capacity.

At least it wasn't John Lasseter level stuff.

Some of the reported accusations were pretty rank. It wasn't just 'Porn Fridays', or whatever they called it.

Has anyone seen The Eternals yet? A buddy of mine did and said it was actually very good.

Huh. I play mkv files on it all the time - not 4K though. Weird. Maybe a bitrate limit or something?
Weird, I tried playing Shang-Chi in 4K today via Plex and it worked. Only DD works, so no Atmos (TrueHD), though. Android doesn’t support TrueHD/DTS-MA via USB.

I'm all for this, since we love the other Ice Age movies.

Has anyone seen this? Saw it on Reddit and hadn't even heard of it. 95% on RT and looks fun.

I loved it

I had no idea that a Predator prequel movie was even in the works. I mean, good luck against the Predators with your sticks and stones?

The sort of groaning sound the truck makes going over the cliff is reprised by Spielberg at the end of Jaws as the skark's carcass sinks.

Also, Wilfred Brimley was 51 when Cocoon was released. Today, Paul Rudd is 52.

Red Notice was entertaining, if not a good movie.

That’s on tap for us next weekend, I think. I’ve got that, Shang-Chi, and No Time to Die waiting to go.
