Update Blog - 10/9/21 (Patreon)

This was my birthday week and I can honestly say that it was a really nice time. While I may not have had a whole lot of time to do some actual work, it was still good to spend some quality time with family and friends and give myself some free time to relax and just have fun. I was still able to fit in some progress, but this was mostly about celebrating and taking care of myself. Outside of that, let's have a recap of the week.

- Released my review of The Addams Family 2: I guess finding out that this was gonna suck was as surprising as discovering that I'm white. In a way, it really is like The Mitchells vs. The Machines, except you take away everything that made that movie good and fun to watch and now you're stuck with this bland and frustratingly dull kids' flick. Granted, there were a few instances where I did enjoy it like the animation can look pretty good and I did laugh at a few instances like Uncle Fester's shenanigans, but outside of that, there is nothing redeemable or memorable about this flick other than how this is the bad version of the Addams Family. At least the one good news about the fact that I went through this movie is that, for the rest of the animated films this year, it can only get better.

- Released the preview of the next Top 10: You probably know that, every year, I always want to give you all something special, like a very early preview of a major project I have coming soon. However, since I don't have the next Animation Lookback prepared yet (considering the big plans I have for it that needs time to set up, it'll have an early 2022 release date), I decided to give you a little taste of the next Top that's coming later this month. Yes, it's going to be the Top 10 Weirdest Animated Films and it will be my most elaborate Top 10 video I've made yet, filled with crazy effects and taking full advantage of the green screen. What you have seen is only from 10 to 8, but the full list will be coming later in a few weeks. Stay tuned!

- Writing the next Series Review: Like I said before, I didn't fully had time to just focus on doing my work. My attention was needed in other places (including my birthday, parties with family and friends and trying to fix my streaming software for my podcast after it got a bad glitch from a faulty update), but when I did have time to work, I spent it on working on the next series review. After finishing all the episodes last weekend, the most I was able to do was finish up the script. As you're reading this, I may have time to fit in some of the filming and recording, but the main part that I did complete was the writing and that's it. If possible, I may have more time next week to get this one fully finished, but I wanna make sure this comes out great as well, so we'll see what happens in the progress of this one, but it's guaranteed that this is still happening. 

- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $25+/MONTH: I will have my first episode of the Super Secret Patreon Exclusive Q&A Show ready and released for Monday the 18th. If you have a question you'd like me to answer for the show, message me and mention that it's for the Secret Q&A Show.

- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $50+/MONTH: This month's Discord Chat will be happening on Tuesday the 12th, and Thursday the 14th and both at 2pm EST. Let me know if you're not available for either so I'll organize a quick chat.

So that was what happened during my birthday week in terms of work. It was definitely fun while it lasted. Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes and the great support. How about we do this again next year? ;) So, until then...

See ya later, dudes!
