ash design for this was my fav

I am delighted that Illumination showed how Wild Knuckles really influenced Gru's life and what he left behind in it

Don't want to make my old readers any promises I can't keep, but since it's the New Year, I figured it's as good a time as any to share a little tease for something that I may or may not have in the works...

Happy New Year - 2025!!!!!

Buster would probably let Suki, Porsha and Darius see the Moon Troupe's shows for free if they asked, but they line up to buy tickets anyway just to support him and the gang.

Wait…

Did I predict this…?!

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one…

Quietly puts this in my notes for future reference…

Named Businesses/Brands in the Sing Franchise: Sing 2

In a recent rewatch of the movies, I tried to find all the named businesses and brands that are in the movies for world building sake (minus bands and entertainment acts cause thats a different list).

Sing 3 - Concept Poster/Synopsis

"After taking audiences Out Of This World, Buster Moon and his can-do cast embark on a new adventure when they're invited to take their talent to the European stage. While his friends face new challenges and complications - including some unexpected family reunions - Buster begins to wonder how long their shared dream can truly last, and once again finds himself putting everything on the line to protect those closest to him."

Today, I learned something cool. Both the website and the phone number on the new Super Mario Bros. Plumbing ad are real promotional stuff for the film. I even texted them and got the business card. This kind of marketing is pretty cool to me as it feels like you have entered the world of the story. The fact that they include references to the Super Mario Bros Super Show too doesn't hurt either (including the cartoon's Princess Toadstool voice actress).

A memory of Father and Son’s day out.
