It's a turbulent but interesting time for the Tekken franchise and, perhaps, for the fighting game industry as a whole. News broke out last year that Katsuhiro Harada, the developer whose name is synonymous with the Tekken fighting game series, was leaving Bandai Namco . This was followed last May by the announcement that Harada is joining former rival company SNK Corporation to found a new studio . Now, another name closely associated with Tekken is leaving the franchise behind, as Kohei Ikeda also announced he's leaving Bandai Namco. source https://www.polygon.com/kohei-ikeda-tekken-leaves-bandai-namco/

Big Mouth was a revelation when it premiered in 2017. The vulgar Netflix series about a bunch of tweens and teens going through puberty pushed the boundaries of what animation could get away with (even compared to other edgy cartoons like South Park ), while also telling a surprisingly poignant story about the difficulties of growing up. Throw in a stacked voice cast featuring some of the best comedians around (creator Nick Kroll, John Mulaney, Jason Mantzoukas, Jenny Slate, Fred Armisen, Maya Rudolph, Paula Pell, Richard Kind, the list goes on) and the result was an instant hit that kept rolling for eight seasons (and a spinoff) before ending in 2025. source https://www.polygon.com/mating-season-review-big-mouth/

When Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park debuted in 1993, it was a technical achievement like no other . For the first time ever, computer-generated creatures interacted with actors on the silver screen through a combination of CGI, puppetry, and practical effects. With Industrial Light & Magic's expertise, Jurassic Park changed cinema for the better by showing audiences what sci-fi could look like on screen through the power of CGI. source https://www.polygon.com/dragonheart-1996-retrospective-jurassic-park/
