Labubu's devaluation is straight-up brutal -- Pop Mart just watched $33 billion vanish from its market cap as the stock cratered 60% from its August 2025 peak because those ugly-cute monster dolls that hijacked every TikTok bag in 2025 now make up 40% of revenue with no real backup plan. Resale prices have tanked over 50% on secondary markets after the company cranked production 10x to kill scalpe...

Glen Powell might actually drag a full Star Fox standalone movie into existence -- the Top Gun hotshot who cold-called Illumination after the first Mario flick begging to voice Fox McCloud just got handed the role in Super Mario Galaxy as a surprise crossover, and now Illumination's CEO is openly admitting Powell's lifelong dream was always a solo Star Fox film. Yeah the guy turned a random pitch...

Anime and animation studios are all using AI and lying about it, according to a director for Jujutsu Kaisen. They're lying because they don't want to deal with the backlash, but the technology is proving to be a huge timesaver. So there's a good chance nearly any animation you've consumed over the past year or two used AI to some extent. It's unavailable. Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and...

The media is freaking out because billionaires like Sam Altman are scooping up their peers on the cheap, but it's because they're the only ones who have the money to buy anything right now. Website traffic to mainstream sites are in the absolute GUTTER thanks to Google AI snippets, with ABC News losing 64% of its traffic year over year. MSNBC didn't fare much better. YIKES.

OOF. According to Red Letter Media, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy had less than 40,000 viewers. If this is true, this show was a MUCH bigger failure than anybody could have possibly imagined. This also explained why it was cancelled ahead of the second season premiere. And no, it's not the fault of YouTube chuds.

The Barbie Dream Fest was compared to Fyre Festival and the Willy Wonka Experience, and now they're apparently giving a refund to all attendees. This is probably the doing of Mattel, who licensed Barbie to the convention owner and doesn't want a PR black eye. Maybe they should've had an Oppenheimer convention next door?

The WGA just kicked itself in the nuts ahead of renegotiations with the studios. Their own staff is on strike against THEM and now they've yanked their health insurance.

Charlie Day couldn't resist the bait on his favorite Luigi -- during a Super Mario Galaxy Movie promo stop in Tokyo on the Tintoria podcast, the Always Sunny star ranked his own voiced version as number one then straight-up deadpanned "Luigi Mangione, number two" when the host asked about recent American history. Anya Taylor-Joy facepalmed instantly while Keegan-Michael Key cracked up --...

Rec Room is shutting down for good -- the social VR platform that racked up 150 million players and once hit a $3.5 billion valuation is killing the servers on June 1st at noon Pacific after admitting they never cracked sustainable profits no matter how many custom rooms or locker room parties they hosted.

Five Guys CEO admits he dropped $1.5M in bonuses to avoid getting shot -- yeah the 82-year-old founder Jerry Murrell straight-up told Fortune he shelled out a grand per store to his crews after their February BOGO burger promo turned into an absolute nightmare with lines wrapping the block, kitchens running dry, and employees left holding the bag for the chaos. He joked he didn’t want anybody shoo...

Scientists found a literal Pokémon section in your brain -- Stanford researchers scanned adults who grinded the Game Boy games as kids and discovered a consistent chunk in the occipitotemporal sulcus lights up like a Poké Ball only for Pikachu and the rest of the roster, while non-players show zero response. Yeah your childhood obsession didn't just rot your social life -- it physically carved out...

Paul McCartney banned from his own subreddit -- the Beatle legend's official account u/paulmccartney drops exclusive no-phones concert pics and videos from his sold-out Fonda Theatre show straight into r/PaulMcCartney via Dropbox and Reddit's bots immediately nuked it as spam.

Nintendo's patent war on Palworld just got wrecked in the US -- the USPTO slapped a full non-final rejection on all 26 claims of their brand-new "summon a sub-character and let it fight in auto or manual mode" patent after the Director himself ordered a rare reexamination citing prior art from Konami and even Nintendo's own old filings. This was one of the key US patents they rushed thro...

Nintendo just had its patent for the game mechanic that allows you to summon a minion to do battle for you REVOKED by the U.S. Patent Office!

Hollywood is going to be a whole lot pickier about the shows and movies they greenlight going forward, and they might use AI to help pick the projects that are the most likely to please audiences and turn a profit. That might mean that there aren't as many chances being taken, but it also means no more of the failed 'woke' stuff that any normal person could've told you would fail. Then we talk abo...
