Two guys go on a journey across Los Angeles to pick their friend up from the suicide ward in Santa Monica. With Clay Tatum • Whitmer Thomas • Budd Diaz & Anna Seregina Produced By Ryan Kohler Written & Directed by Clay Tatum & Whitmer Thomas
Watch The Junction: An animated series of creative encounters. Stories of musical magnetism – how unique musical collaborations came to be. Animated short films tell the funny and often unexpected stories of artists, how they met, and the music they created together. It’s a known fact that opposites attract. The classically trained Chilly Gonzales and rock provocateur Peaches brought out the best in each other when they first met at a basement jam session. Coming from opposite ends of the spectrum, they found common ground in their willingness to cross over. That bliss of breaking down the familiar and giving an unknown path a try shines through in the animation of Patrick Doyon, an Academy Award-nominated director. Sometimes, an apple rotten with old ways can grow into a sturdy new tree. The Red Bull Music Academy is a global music institution committed to fostering creativity in music. We celebrate music, its culture, and the transformative minds behind it. Begun in 1998, the Academy has taken the core principles that underlie its annual workshop for selected participants and applied this curatorial approach to events, lectures, and city-wide festivals throughout the year. ► Visit our official website: http://win.gs/avjLrK ► Like us on Facebook: http://on.fb.me/12N5Ch0

At Trojan Horse, I spoke to Brave director Brenda Chapman on what she’s been up to after Pixar. Great news is she and husband Kevin Lima have a hybrid film they are pitching. The interview is at Cartoon Brew.
Indian mobile game publisher, Nazara Games, today announced their partnership with Cornerstone Sport and India’s iconic batsman Rohit Sharma to launch his first ever cricket game, called Rohit Cricket Championship.
Nazara has an exclusive mobile gaming deal with Cornerstone Sport (the agency which has the digital and gaming rights for the Indian cricket star) and according to the deal, Sharma will work exclusively with Nazara Games as part of a multi-year partnership to develop unique digital gaming experiences for his fans, extending his engagement in a new interactive format.
This isn’t the first time that Nazara has joined hands with Cornerstone Sport. Earlier we had observed that Nazara Games and Cornerstone Sport launched Virat Cricket Challenge where Virat Kohli was a playable character in the fast paced arcade cricket game.
With tournaments, mini challenges, leaderboards and achievements, Rohit Cricket Championship is a social cricketing experience with India’s cricket superstar. Its simplistic controls clubbed with exhaustive features like shot variety, running between the wickets, rewind the ball, and in game challenges caters to both hardcore fans of cricket and casual users.
Nazara Games, CEO, Manish Agarwal says, “We at Nazara are really thrilled to announce our exclusive mobile gaming partnership with the“Hit Man” of Indian cricket and are confident that the game Rohit Cricket Championship would give millions of his fans joy of enacting Rohit’s real world flair of hitting the shots outside the boundary line.”
The notable part about the game is that it has been curated to emulate Rohit Sharma notch his big scores by enabling players to play those big shots and watch the ball sail raight out of the cricket ground. So, if you are a fan of Rohit Sharma, you might as well give it a try.
“It is really exciting to have the first ever cricket game on me coming out in the market. I look forward to the game and encourage all cricket fans to download and play the game” adds Rohit Sharma.
Nazara continues to explore the cricket gaming genre on the mobile platform as in June we learnt that Nazara tied up with Stick Sports and will be coming out with a new cricket based game, featuring Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
Rohit Cricket Championship is the first game of the Rohit Sharma series and is available for download over the Google Play Store.

Minecon 2016 recently concluded and we were expecting some announcements from the developers “Mojang” regarding future plans and we weren’t disappointed. The company announced that the console editions of the game would be getting a rather large update for free and a classic Chinese Mythology Mash-Up Pack will also be brought in.
Priced at $4.99 and slated for a 4 October release, the Chinese Mythology Mash-Up Pack will be adding 41 skins to the kitty and a brand new pre-made world, crafted specially according to the lore of the ancient empire.
Here’s the description of the new realm as on the official post: ‘Wander through the streets of an ancient great city, marvel at the dragons that dwell around the high mountains, contemplate on your crafting within a mythical monastery and just enjoy the view as you walk through fields and discover how mobs would look in ancient China….’ ‘On top of all that, the Chinese Mythology Mash-Up also includes a very special map for the Battle mini game which we released back in June. Just look out for the dragons!’
Mojang’s immensely popular sandbox game, Minecraft recently ventured into China for the first time when the developers bestowed licensing rights upon the Chinese company NetEase.
The free update patch includes:
New mobs: You’ll now find polar Bears (and their babies!) roaming frozen biomes.
New items: Farm beetroots and keep yourself nourished with some healthy beetroot soup.
Banners: Make beautiful banners to hang in your bases and spruce the place up.
New terrain generation: You’ll find Igloos in Arctic biomes; Fossils buried underground, as well as different village paths and materials.
New blocks: End Bricks, Beetroot, Grass Path, Frosted Ice, Magma, Nether Wart Block, Red Nether Brick and Bone Block.

Title: The Crying Idol
Issue No: 1764
Story: Georges Bess
Art: Claes Reimerthi
Publisher: Frew Comics
Editor: Dudley Hogarth
Pages: 34 Pages in B & W
Price: Aus $3.50
Date: 26 September 2016
For those who came in late, Frew is the longest running comics magazine publisher in Australia. Started in 1948 by four gentlemen whose first letters formed the brand imprint, Frew is now owned by the fantastic pair of Rene White and Glenn Ford. The publishing editor is the redoubtable Dudley Hogarth who pens all the required details about the story and the creators behind every story in the editorial section of the book. There are certain books / stories which look good only in colour. But, The Phantom is such a comics series which surpasses the medium. Frew publishes 36 paged regular magazines twice in a month to go along with the occasional special editions.
As for Phantom, he is the first ever masked hero of comics, having been in circulation since 1936. He is a nemesis for the evil and wrong doers. A true hero who resides in the deep woods of Bengalla. Phantom is distributed by King Features syndicated with Daily and Sunday strips getting published across the world by various newspapers. Currently, the Phantom is published regularly (in English) by The Frew publication in Australia and Comics Revue in USA.
Here’s the synopsis of the comic:
An Archeological expedition near Morristown results in unearthing an old Chumar Idol which has possessive powers. The Archeologist himself is now become a victim & Can the Ghost who walks fight the evil powered idol?
One Line: The Phantom Fights a Centuries Old Evil Force.
Story: Doctor T’uande leads an archaeological expedition near Morristown, the imaginary town in the Phantom’s story arc. They unearth a centuries old statue which is believed to be cursed by the sorcerer Chumar. On that fateful night, a dramatic attempt is made by a thief to steal the statue and unforeseen events lead to chaos and uncertainty in the camp. The soldiers from the Jungle patrol (Police squad formed by the Phantom with him being the unknown commander) report this to their head office.
Doctor T’uande showcases the statue in the Museum and suddenly the lights go off and darkness prevails, both literally and really. Fortunately, the Phantom is present in the museum and he faces one of the toughest battles against a force that is quite tough to understand, let alone battle. What happens next forms the rest of the story.
Analysis: Claes Reimerthi is a veteran in writing The Phantom stories, Having written more than 100 such stories for the Swedish publisher. The recent story arc published by Frew is an example for his class. However, this story, penned in Nov 1985 and is average in terms of story and narration. The average story is saved by the brilliant pencilling by the talented Frenchman Georges Bess, who was spotted and initiated into the world of Phantom by none other than Lee Falk, the creator of Phantom himself.
Verdict: Recommended, 3/6.
