Also also, Netflix's troubles continue to climb as it runs into issues with the film industry in South Korea, where a surprisingly large amount of content is made. And finally, after a year of hearing tales of woe, certain VFX professionals have begun to organize to join IASTE and unionize for the first time.
The shift is gaining momentum.

Introducing Tuned In! Josh and Willis are off this week (Happy 4th), but we're excited to introduce a new mini-pod from us here at PixelSplitters.
We talk a lot about the state of the industry on Pixelsplitters, but we also LOVE to talk about what we're watching. There's so much good stuff to watch these days and it deserves to be discussed.
Tuned In is a bite sized pod where Josh and Willis just chat about what they've watched this past week. Was it worth it? Was it not? Discuss.
We'll be back next week with our regular long-form discussions, but for now (and moving forward), enjoy what we've tuned into this week.

Hello there! It is yet another episode of PixelSplitters, and today Josh and Willis are doing some deep pondering. Top Gun has crossed the $1 billion mark in under a month! Kenobi has come and gone on Disney+, and it was...good? And to really test their mental capacity, Josh and Willis chew on the seeming resurgence of the mid-tier movie in 2022. All this and more!

Things are...happening... It's a conflicted episode of PixelSplitters today. Some good things are in the works. Some bad things are in the works.

Josh and Willis also take a few minutes to break down what is the better indictor these days, box office dollars or hours streamed.

Episode 55, Round 2 After faltering last week, Pixelsplitters is back with a brand new episode all about second chances. Josh and Willis settle in and discuss what must be discussed...the re-release of Morbius (and No Way Home). Also, Season 2 of Squid Game is officially coming our way...which we kind of knew already? The big topic of this week? Are all these legacy sequels (Top Gun, Jurassic World) a good thing for the industry? A bad thing? A money grab? Are they hurting the films that came before? So many questions to examine.

It's about to get nerdy in here. It's Thursday! That means it's PIXELSPITTERS TIME. Everyone get ready because Josh and Willis are getting into some deeply nerdom today...so you know...just like every other week. Let's start off with the fact that the Star Wars celebration was this past weekend, and there are some interesting things on the Star Wars horizon. Also, word on the street is that fewer movies are being released theatrically than in years past. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? ALSO, Josh and Willis dive into the ever captivating world of public domain copyright law in response to the Winnie the Pooh Horror Film coming out later this year.
Lot's to cover. Strap in...

MEGAPIXELS EPISODE TWO It is a big day in the Superhero universe. Today is the release of Spider-man No Way Home, possibly the most anticipated superhero movie of all time.
In honor of this release, Josh and Willis are breaking down the past 20 years of superhero films. Join us as we run through our top 5 and bottom 5 films of the modern era of this massive genre. Yes, this is a long episode. Yes, it's worth it. The highs are wild and the lows are wilder.
A couple of rules to our lists: We are omitting The Dark Knight because it would obviously be at the top of both Josh and Willis' list. We are omitting Catwoman. Because no one here has seen that movie. Other than that any movie after 1999 is fair game.
