01. Arctic [February 01st]
A film by Joe Penna @ Youtuber MysteryGuitarMan. The trailer looks great, seeing the potential coming to life on screen. Again I hope he will follow in Bo Burnham's footstep after last year's Eighth Grade with this year's Arctic.

08. One Piece goes live-action for Indeed ad campaign
'Countless people looking for work turn to Indeed, and the company is hoping even more will follow suit once they lay their eyes on a new ad campaign. The campaign in question teams Indeed up with the Straw Hats themselves in the form of a live-action collaboration commercial. The results are actually kind of awesome. Takumi Saitoh leads the crew as Luffy, with Hiroyuki Ikeuchi as Zoro, Rika Izumi as Nami, Daigo (of comedy duo Chidori) as Usopp, Yosuke Kubozuka as Sanji, and, well, you'll see Chopper for yourself.
