A ★★★★★ review of Metropolis (1927)
A 100 years after it's made. Still got that magic. Great cinematic experience with a modern live score and I almost got a glimpse of Kari Geri, who sat like 9-10 seats from us in the front row.

Dear artists migrating from Tapas! We have artists on The Duck Webcomics who have been active for the past 20 years. Yes, everyone will tell you to join ComicFury, everyone loves ComicFury, we're barely even registered with people. But both we too, tend to stick around for indie creators.

It's amazing how studios play "just the tip of it" with AI. I'm sure they pay a huge bonus if a prominent director uses a 20sec generated segment because it helps normalize it and the more stuff you consume that has GenAI the less credible you'll sound if you speak up against it.

A dear friend of mine's keyboard synthesizer gave in after 20 years of use and one of the few things that makes her happy is that she can work on creating her songs, so a few of us decided to put some money together and buy her a new one. I also can't think of a more fitting tribute to Glen Hansard.

I always want to work on something. I don't have the time or the financial means to continue Imago, Nebraska as a webcomic, but I've been thinking about turning it into a novel and continuing it that way. Too bad I can't write good prose in English and even if I could, almost no one would read it.

It is time to kick things off with the #DrunkDuckAwards Red Carpet Event. First of all, thanks to plymayer and fallopiancrusader from The Duck for making the backgrounds. Second, I know it is a little cheeky, but the announcer commentary is in alt text @theduckwebcomics.bsky.social #ddawards
Casual group shot of attendees of the 2026 Drunk Duck Awards Red Carpet Event. The characters on an outdoor staircase leasing up to a building sporting the The Duck Webcomics logo.

Welcome to the morning of the 2026 Drunk Duck Awards! Unfortunately no one told me during the booking that there would be a long flight of stairs to get to the auditorium. I think instead of climbing up all of these stairs, we will just take a picture closer to the bottom. Does that work with everyone?

I am going to completely ignore Soda’s grumbling. Alrighty, you know the drill by now, we have done enough of these pictures…but I do guess we have some new faces. Ok, tall people to the back of the group, go ahead and climb up to right where the stairs start doubling back. Short people and animals, let's get a little bit closer to the bottom of the stairs.

Everyone please make sure to give Hecate enough space. She may be a non-anthropomorphic dog, but she is a well trained bodyguard. I know we have several vampires here today. I promise we won’t keep you in the sun too long, but please don’t try to bite anyone.

We have a few people that are looking more intently at their castmates than at the camera. If you don’t face me, you’ll regret it. Belle, please put Giselle down. Oh, forget it.

Final warning before the camera snaps. Please keep your fangs, weapons, and other appendages to yourselves. 3…2…1…*camera flash*. Ok, that does it for our first picture, let’s get back to the hotel and dress up for tonight. I’ll see you on the red carpet!Coming down the red carpet is Belle and Giselle from Birdmentime’s Hero. They are certainly dressed interestingly.

Rumor has it that they brainstormed solutions for their formal wear together over a couple a ton of bottles of Baileys. They came up with this rather infernal solution.

Both their dresses shimmer as if they are made from holographic material. Considering the projectors that someone placed around here, it is even odds that is what their dresses are. They look blue but are also very prismatic.

For a hint of naughtiness, their dresses are sheer in a couple of places and cover as little skin as possible. To complete their looks they are wearing necklaces and gladiator sandals. Word on the street is that those sandals are the “it” look this season.

Looking good ladies. I’m sure they are heading over to the bar right now for some more Baileys.Making their stroll down the red carpet next is Major Patel and Lieutenant Laska from Crimson Stars: Chains of Command.

Major Patel looks absolutely stunning in her red dress with black flower accents. She is holding Lieutenant Laska possessively. The lieutenant has made an interesting fashion choice of wearing something that harkens back to military dress, but is anything but.

After all the dangerous missions in outer space they have had, it must be nice to be a the decidedly less deadly Drunk Duck Awards.Representing the webcomic Exposure is Dr. Celia Whitlock and Inspector Cosimo Santini.

Dr. Whitlock is the Devil's advocate herself and the sex therapist from Exposure, who never misses a chance to raise eyebrows by taking on some of the coldest cases of medical science. At least if they'd be serial killers, we could visit the gift shop at the exit, but with all those rapists and pedophiles she's treating, this will be a rather uncomfortable evening for her. I wonder if she's here, who's keeping an eye on her sex offender patients? Anyway, she kept it to a bare minimum with the dress, and I hear even this is comic-accurate.

Accompanying her tonight is Inspector Santini. This young stud from Rome also came from the comic Exposure, although I believe he'll only show up as a main character in the 2nd story, starting around February next year. A little teaser never hurts. I'd be surprised if the inspector would need any sex therapy. His father made some of the biggest busts in the history of the DIA and Cosimo has every intention of living up to his name. We'll see how that goes once he's paired up with Whitlock to catch a sexual deviant serial killer. ‘Til then, we’ll have to make do with the modest look of a real gentleman.

Thanks to both of you for taking time out of your busy schedules to grace the red carpet this evening!

I predict that soon, (partially because it's the most convenient way for them to mass-apply GenAI) movies themselves will be like subscription services, where not only "problematic" scenes will get removed or censored, but also new "updates" will be added. Like bonus skin downloadables for movies.

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us
