>NC's new games, including Project TL, are aimed at simultaneous global market release. Chief Financial Officer Hong said, "Although it is well known that NC's flagship is MMORPG, we are trying to develop various genres and IPs to expand our global customer base. We are trying to become a global multiplatform company that encompasses mobile-PC-consoles in the long run."
>It is spurring not only MMORPG but also various genres and IP development. NC's new lineup will be unveiled through a showcase around the first quarter of next year. It is also considering releasing in-game videos. At this showcase, you will feel NC's global market and platform diversification strategy. "Project TL" will be based on PC-console.
>I am curious about the project TL release schedule.
>
>= We're now at a pre-launch stage. If answered stably, we expect the launch of the second half of next year.

Okay hear me out
Of course its "just a tumblr post", but blondie is liable to mess with us:
- (Apply base coat lightly, dry, repeat until desired complexion)
Lets remember all the reasons why we initially thought a 1989(TV) was in the works
a. Of course she was re-recording 1989 (this is our first axiom, all others derive from this truth)
b. she released Wildest Dream (TV), completely out of the blue - (Begin applying the color over your eyes - this is where it gets murky*)*
c. Someone pointed out that the original planned release dates created 1989
d. Her Stephen Colbert video mentions 1989 by name, albeit as a calculation iirc
Now for yesterday's video
e. At some point in the video, shes on a bench, with a necklace, dangling off her neck, and except for the opening exposition, it's no where else in the video
>"Your necklace hanging from my neck" - OotW?
i. Now at first this could just be a random accessory, but her ring is in every shot
f. In the video, she describes the quintessential fall aesthetic
>A nod to "Style"?
g. A blatant product-placement for Seattle's finest
i. A callback to one of her most famous misheard lyrics
- We've seen blondie poke fun at herself w/mistakes, "no its becky" shirt comes to mind
h. Similarly, her journal entry/lyric shot might as well be a 'Blank Space' announcement
i. Her generous cinnamon application screams "Shake it Off"
i. I mean who puts that much cinnamon on a cookie???, this isn't the cinnamon-challenge
3. (Now apply a generous amount of paint over your mouth, careful not to get any in your mouth; this has been known to bring on hysteria in artists)
j. In her Wildest Dreams(TV) TT, blondie is seen painting her nails RED (which is already announced), but cuts to her in a blue dress, with shades ;)
i. This is a similar dress to OotW, and her hipster shades look yells "New Romantics"
ii. Also of note, release date was 9/17 - a NYC area code (by far my longest stretch) - W2NY
4. (Finally, put on your skull caps if you have long hair, otherwise put on the provided wig, and clown nose)
Now of all the singles for 1989:
"Shake It Off"
"Blank Space"
"Style"
"Bad Blood"
"Wildest Dreams"
"Out of the Woods"
"New Romantics"
We've found allusion to everything except for Bad Blood, and while i'm sure theres one out there, i think we're at the "I'd like to solve the puzzle Pat"-stage, so we'll consider it extra

If anyone could share I would really appreciate it!
Honestly, I can see this film going either way. On one hand, Sing 2 is a sequel to one of Illumination's better films, the trailer looks like it's presenting another decent film, and depending on who you ask, we might get vaccines that are suitable(?) for kids by the time this film comes out on December 2021. On the other hand, parents might still be a bit concerned about the whole situation, animated sequels don't usually do hugely well at the box office, and Illumination isn't exactly a well-reputed studio.
I do not believe in a slightest that this will go directly to Peacock, so it's either going to get a cinema exclusive release or a cinema/Peacock simultaneous release. Which option do you think is more likely and why?
P.S. For a record, Encanto getting a cinema exclusive release and The Addams Family 2 getting a cinema/VOD simultaneous release doesn't/don't surprise me AT ALL since the former has a lot of potentials while the latter... does not. In other words, Sing 2 is going to be the most fascinating one to talk about when it comes to release strategy.
Free guys is not on Disney plus. There's apparently a 45 day exclusivity for theaters period.
I was looking forward to that model, but it seems after black widow they're not gonna do the releasing movie on Disney plus thing same as theater?
I was excited about being able to see movies at the same time as everyone else instead of waiting for the bluray/digital release to drop 3 months later
So the same thing is gonna happen for shang chi? And all the other upcoming movies?
"The new Marvel film has long been set to be the studio’s first theatrical-only release since early 2020, but with rising concerns about the delta variant of covid-19, many assumed that decision would change. It will not, meaning Shang-Chi will not be available to stream on Disney+ with Premier Access. To see it, you’ll have to go to the theater, at least for a few weeks."

This is good news.
To be honest, i am surprise this actually is happening for kengan omega. I know there are a ton of series that are a lot more popular but they don't do this. Baki don't and ROR don't, and martial art fighting manga have a narrower audience group compare to other shounen genre. Plus kengan is a web manga, which also limit the reader base and ura sunday is also a fairly new publisher with no traditional fan base to support them and couldn't provide as many resources as compare to other big name magazines. This is a very big accomplishment for the series and I believe this fanbase right here help to make this happen by showing those business people there is a high demand for the kengan series.

This worked out great last time, so I thought I'd make a megathread that can be updated as more news starts to come in.
