    Liked it a lot, follow a few of the individuals artists on Instagram and really appreciate the workmanship involved. This dude https://twitter.com/AYMRC worked on it, and has previous work on Ping Pong the Animation and Arcane which are also great.

      Arcane was so special. Season 2 can't come soon enough. I hadn't even played League in the years leading up to its release so I thought I wouldn't enjoy it due to being out of the loop, but the standalone nature of the story and the series' style and animation were just so jaw-dropping throughout that I couldn't peel myself from the screen. The last time I enjoyed an animated series that much was way back with Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra.

    It's a good movie, but the "top Summer film" is still Super Mario Brothers. Weird too that they compare it to Guardians of the Galaxy which came out in May, not really a "Summer" movie, is it? I guess they count it because it's still in theaters? But then Mario came out in April and is still running 3 months later...

      Summer movie season is May-August. There was a time when the start of the summer was Memorial Day, but that was nearly 20 years ago now.

      Mario doesn’t count as April is before the start of this season. It’s about the release date more than the legs.

      Even beyond industry standards I think most people would 100% put April in Spring, not summer.
