We can't wait to see you there.  This week, Ellie and Leigh discuss the 2023 animated Netflix film Nimona based on the graphic novel by ND Stevenson (who you may recognize as the creator of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power!). The story follows Nimona, possibly the most nonbinary shapeshifter character ever made, as they team up with Ballister, an aspiring knight from a humble background who is set up and accused of murdering the Queen. Nimona is pretty disappointed that Ballister is not actually a villain mastermind, but decides to be his sidekick anyway in an attempt to help him clear his name. It's all fun and shapeshifting sharks until Ballister starts to realize that his boyfriend Goldenloin really does not believe he is innocent and cannot see Nimona as anything more than a ‘monster'. Overwhelmed by the extent of the Director's deception and the loss of everything he has ever known in his life including his relationship, Ballister turns on Nimona triggering flashbacks of being betrayed long, long ago. Things become intense and dark very quickly from here on, but honestly we get it. Everyone with any ounce of power in town would rather kill and destroy innocent lives than change or remotely challenge their worldview. They see Nimona as a monster simply because they are different and everyone grows up being taught to 'kill first, ask questions never'. We do ultimately get a happy ending, but not before being absolutely stabbed in the heart at least 12 times with the feels.

Heute reisen wir in eine kleine fiktive Welt und treffen auf Nimona die Gestaltwandlerin, die leider schon immer Ausgrenzung erleben musste. Das ändert sich alles, als sie auf Ballister trifft, der aus Versehen die Regierung gestürzt hat und nun seine Weste wieder reinwaschen möchte. Trotz unterschiedlicher Pläne finden die beiden zueinander und ich erzähle euch in der Folge außerdem noch, warum Sichtbarkeit und Diversität in diesem Film so toll sind und warum nicht nur Nimona das female empowerment rockt. Viel Spaß beim Hören der Folge! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey friends! This week we talk about Netflix's Nimona which is based on the graphic novel by artist ND Stevenson! We talk about the trans allegories in it, the voice acting, and so much more! Movie description to follow! Theme Song by Man With Roses When Ballister Boldheart (Riz Ahmed), a knight in a futuristic medieval world, is framed for a crime he didn't commit, the only one who can help him prove his innocence is Nimona (Chloë Grace Moretz), a mischievous teen with a taste for mayhem -- who also happens to be a shapeshifting creature Ballister has been trained to destroy. But with the entire kingdom out to get him, Nimona's the best (or technically the only) sidekick Ballister can hope for. And as the lines between heroes, villains, and monsters start to blur, the two of them set out to wreak serious havoc -- for Ballister to clear his name once and for all, and for Nimona to... just wreak serious havoc.

Jim and Jessie fall in love with Nimona as Jim struggles to pronounce her name correctly. They go in-depth on each of their characters and how they succeed where other films fail.

Ballister, un héroe caído en desgracia por un crimen que no cometió y que quiere limpiar su nombre, por otro lado Nimona, una niña con el poder de cambiar de forma y que ansía ser su secuaz por ser visto como el mayor villano que ha tenido el reino en mucho tiempo.

From cartoonist ND Stevenson, the mind behind She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, we get Nimona, a gorgeously animated sci-fantasy film that's risen from its ashes after almost being axed by Disney a few years ago. Ballister and Nimona give excellent performances and together they tell a rich and genuine story centering around duty, purpose, and the struggles that real-life LGBTQ+ individuals face in today's world, in ways that a few of us have never seen before! That isn't to say that Marcus enjoyed every aspect of this movie, but we talk about whether of that is justified, too. Content warning: SPOILERS, strong language.

In this episode of Journey to the Blue Sky, Arun and Patricia bend the rules a bit by discussing about the 2023 animated film Nimona based on the 2015 graphic novel by N.D. Stevenson. A commoner named Ballister Boldheart is being knighted in the Institute for Elite Knights where ordinarily people who are descendants of royalty from Queen Glorith would be chosen. Things go horribly wrong when he is seeing killing the queen with a laser coming out of his sword and is deemed a "murderer" and "monster". A shapeshifter named Nimona wishes to be Ballister's sidekick to cause mayhem, but instead he wishes to find out who framed him so he can clear his name. Originally produced by Blue Sky Studios, it was cancelled in 2021 when Disney bought the rights to the company and shut it down. It was picked up by Annapurna Pictures and released as a Netflix exclusive. When the film was released, it became a critical hit for its animation, voice over performances, its LGBTQ representation, and satirizing the formula of animated films. What did Patricia and Arun think of the film? Listen and find out. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/old-school-lane/support

'Nimona' is an animated film released by Netflix on June 30, 2023. It was produced by Annapurna Pictures and the animation team formerly of Blue Sky, the studio behind 'Ice Age' (2002) and 'Spies and Disguise' (2019) and a casualty of the Disney/21st Century Fox acquisition. Nimona is set in a world of futuristic technology combined with medieval chivalry and opens on the televised knighting ceremony of Ballister Boldheart. Immediately upon being knighted, Sir Ballister is framed for assassination and forced on the run. Wounded and desperate, he encounters a mysterious young girl who seems impervious to danger. Nimona is a shapeshifter who volunteers to assist Ballister in his efforts to evade capture and clear his name. This uneasy alliance could upend everything Ballister has come to value as a knight, exposing a darkness that has always existed within the order he has sworn to protect.

The rest of July is going to be packed with reviews for the latest big 2023 films on the show. And this week we're kicking that off with Netflix's latest animated release called Nimona. Set in a medieval/sci-fi hybrid world, young knight Ballister (played by Riz Ahmed) is framed for a crime he didn't commit. So in order to survive and save The City, he must team with his ancient enemy, a somewhat annoying shapeshifting teenage girl (Chloë Grace Moretz). While the story does find itself in some well worn territory for the genre, the movie sticks the landing in the end with some very impactful themes. Then stick around for a huge News Chat featuring this year's biggest Emmy nominees along with our impressions of the bonkers Wonka trailer. And finally in the main event: a riveting discussion on which animals we most want to become.

And as the lines between heroes, villains, and monsters start to blur, the two of them set out to wreak serious havoc — for Ballister to clear his name once and for all, and for Nimona to…just wreak serious havoc.    Directed by Nick Bruno and Troy Quane, NIMONA is an epic tale about finding friendship in the most surprising situations and accepting yourself and others for who they are. Based on the National Book Award-nominated, New York Times best-selling graphic novel by ND Stevenson.

In which the Mister and Monsters join me in reviewing NIMONA (2023) which is currently streaming on Netflix, in association with Annapurna Animation/Annapurna Pictures.  From the graphic novel of the same name by Nate Stevenson, this film's screenplay is attributed to Robert L. Baird and Lloyd Taylor and is directed by Nick Bruno and Troy Quane.  Readers of the original graphic novel may pick up on the changes made to the story but this film focuses on Nimona (Chloë Grace Moretz), a perpetually young shape shifter who has come into Ballister Boldheart's (Riz Ahmed) life after he falls from grace for a crime he did not commit.  She is searching for her tribe and he just wants to be left alone but she soon convinces him to clear his name with her help.  Lines blur as heroes, villains and monsters converge but will Ballister follow his heart and do what's right or will he turn on Nimoa, a creature he's been trained and sworn to destroy?  You'll have to watch to find out.  Rounding out the cast are Eugene Lee Yang (Ambrosius Goldenloin), Lorraine Toussaint (Queen Valerin), Frances Conroy (The Director) and Beck Bennett (Sir Thoddeus Sureblade).  The film clocks in at 1 h 41 m and is rated PG.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.

Editor - Randy Trager, ACE NIMONA editor, Randy Trager, ACE makes a return trip to The Rough Cut to share the inside story of how his latest film went from dead on the cutting room floor to live and loud on Netflix.  Beginning its development life under the banner of Blue Sky studios and its parent company 21st Century Fox, NIMONA and the rest of the Blue Sky team were moved under Disney during their acquisition of Fox.  The film's rocky development road seemingly ended in April 2021 when Disney shuttered Blue Sky.  With her relentless, never-say-die attitude, NIMONA found new life again with Annapurna Pictures and Netflix. NIMONA tells the tale of Ballister Boldheart (Riz Ahmed), a knight in a futuristic medieval world, who is framed for a crime he didn't commit.  The only one who can help him prove his innocence?  Nimona (Chloë Grace Moretz), a mischievous teen with a taste for mayhem - who also happens to be a shapeshifting creature Ballister has been trained to destroy.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.06.03.129627v1?rss=1 Authors: Rodgers, J., Bano-Otalora, B., Belle, M. D., Paul, S., Hughes, R., Wright, P., McDowell, R., Milosavljevic, N., Orlowska-Feuer, P., Martial, F., Wynne, J., Ballister, E. R., Storchi, R., Allen, A. E., Brown, T., Lucas, R. J. Abstract: There is no consensus on the best optogenetic tool for inhibiting neural activity. Lamprey parapinopsin (Lamplight) is a Gi/o-coupled bistable animal opsin that can be activated and deactivated by short and long wavelength light, respectively. Since native mechanisms of neuronal inhibition frequently employ Gi/o signalling, we asked here whether Lamplight could be used for optogenetic silencing. We show that brief short (405nm) and long (525nm) wavelength pulses repeatedly switch Lamplight between stable signalling active and inactive states, and that combining these wavelengths can be used to achieve intermediate levels of activity. We demonstrate that these properties can be applied to produce switchable and scalable neuronal hyperpolarisation, and suppression of spontaneous spike firing in the mouse hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus. We show that expressing Lamplight in (predominantly) ON bipolar cells can photosensitise retinas following advanced photoreceptor degeneration, and that 405 and 525nm stimuli can produce responses of opposite sign in output neurons of the retina. Lamplight-driven responses to both activating (405nm) and deactivating (525nm) light can occur within 500ms. We conclude that Lamplight can co-opt endogenous signalling mechanisms to allow optogenetic inhibition that is scalable, sustained and rapidly reversible. Copy rights belong to original authors.

My guest today is a young man named Tucker Ballister. Last week, I was cruising around the internet and I came across Tucker's website. Tucker is the owner and founder of The Backpack Guide. He writes and publishes really excellent articles all about different backpacking gear such as packs, tents, water bottles, filtration systems and more. In speaking to Tucker, it's very obvious how much passion he has for backpacking, and how much he enjoys what he does. In our conversation, we get into how hiking has played such a huge role in his life and it is inspiring to come across someone who has such a passion and sense of purpose behind what they do. Tucker is living the dream. He's doing what he loves and finding a way to get paid for it. Let's jump into the interview. Please help me welcome, Tucker Ballister.
