In this episode, I’m diving into a battle that’s been quietly raging in the background of Hollywood—the slow death of 2D animation in American cinema. While Europe and Asia keep the art form alive and thriving, U.S. studios are pushing 3D animation harder than ever. We’ll break down how the latest Looney Tunes film, The Day the Earth Blew Up, was practically buried by its own studio and why that matters more than you think. From forgotten Disney roots to indie animators carrying the torch, we’re talking about what’s been lost, what still shines, and whether there’s hope for a 2D animation revival. Oh, and don’t worry—I’ve got some spicy takes on Reacher, the Avengers: Doomsday cast, and a certain Squirtle-level monster from Monster Hunter Wilds. Tune in—this one’s packed.
