Spider-Man: Far from Home grossed $25.2 million on Thursday July 4th, dropping 7 percent from Wednesday's take of $27 million. Since it opened on Tuesday, the $160 million Marvel and Sony film has grossed $91.5 million domestically and $218.5 million overseas, for a total of $310 million worldwide in a mere 3 weekdays.

Toy Story 4 came in second place with $7.74 million on Thursday, up slightly from Wednesday's $7.70 million gross. Produced on a budget of around $200 million, the Disney/Pixar sequel has earned $272.26 million domestically, and $262.99 million overseas, for a total of $535.25 million worldwide after only 14 days. Not bad at all for the fourth film in the series.

Yesterday, the new film from Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle, ranked third place with $2.71 million, up a whopping 34 percent from Wednesday's $2.02 million. The $26 million Universal comedy has grossed $26.13 million domestically and $7.8 million overseas, for a total of $33.93 million worldwide after 7 days.

Annabelle Comes Home came in fourth place with $1.76 million, down 21 percent from Wednesday's $2.22 million. Made for around $30 million, the Warner Bros. horror sequel has grossed $40.41 million domestically and $47.2 million overseas for a total of $87.61 million worldwide after 9 days.

Aladdin rounded out the top five with $1.63 million, up 5 percent from Wednesday's $1.55 million. Produced on a $183 million budget, the Disney live-action remake has continued to exceed expectations, with a gross of $313.19 million domestically, and $584.2 million overseas, for a total of $897.39 million worldwide after 42 days. It will break the $900 million mark worldwide this weekend, and still has a shot at the $1 billion mark.

Here are the results for the rest of the top ten:

A24's Midsommar suffered the largest decline in the top 10, plummeting 56 percent from Wednesday's $3.02 million to gross $1.33 million on Thursday. Made for less than $10 million, its total is currently $4.35 million after 2 weekdays.

Universal and Illumination's The Secret Life of Pets 2 was up 9 percent over Wednesday's $983,825 to gross $1.07 million on Thursday. Total is now $135.98 million domestic/$92 million overseas for a $227.98 million worldwide gross after 28 days. A disappointing performance for the $80 million sequel, but with its moderate budget, it will still turn a profit.

Disney and Marvel's Avengers: Endgame increased 26 percent over Wednesday's $624,819 to gross $789,290 on Thursday. The $356 million conclusion to the Marvel Cinematic Universe has now grossed $844.76 million domestic/$1.923 billion overseas for a total of $2.768 billion worldwide after 70 days. It is now just $20.2 million shy of the worldwide record set by Avatar. I don't know if it will have enough to staying power to surpass it, but it will be VERY close. It doesn't really matter though, because it has already turned a massive profit.

Sony's Men in Black International jumped 12 percent from Wednesday's $690,000 to gross $770,000 on Thursday. The $110 million sequel continues to massively disappoint with $68.35 million domestic/$153.90 million overseas for a total of $222.25 million worldwide after 21 days. It will end up as a loss for Sony and will almost certainly end the MIB series. The bad reviews from critics, the mixed word-of-mouth from audiences, and the lack of Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, all worked against this film.

Paramount's Rocketman rounded out the top ten, grossing $715,000 on Thursday. With its massive 55 percent jump over Wednesday's $460,000, it enjoyed the largest increase in the top 10. It has now reached $86.39 million domestic/$82.54 million overseas for a total of $168.93 million worldwide after 35 days. It's no Bohemian Rhapsody, but the $40 million musical based on Sir Elton John's career has still enjoyed a solid run, and will turn a nice profit.

I'm looking for someone to RP as one of the Doki Doki Literature Club girls. I will make them transform by putting them under deep hypnosis by having them stare at the full moon. Once they close their eyes and start to drift off to sleep, I'll help them transform into an anthro with my words. Footplay is also always allowed as well.

A big thank you to MC-Laboratories for giving me this idea. It's loosely based around this work:  Full Moon Natsuki (Werewolf TF)Full Moon Natsuki (Werewolf TF)

"Bye Guys!" said Sayori as the club went their seperate ways for the day, Yuri was going home to watch a good slasher flick, Monika was heading home to surf the web (Litteraly!) and Sayori was going out with MC to a fancy resterant for dinner.
As for Natsuki, she had to go home and endure another torture session with her father before going to bed hungry as usual.
"If there is a god, he hates me...." huffed Natsuki.
Deciding to take the scenic route back home, Natsuki cut through the park, even though she read in the paper that a grey wolf had escaped from the zoo and was seen lurking in the park.
Natsuki did not care, for some reason, Death sounded a lot better than what she had to endure back home.
However, fate works in mysterious ways, as that very same wolf, who was lurking in the bushes attacked Natsuki within secconds of her thinking that!
Back at Natsuki's place....

As I'm sure all of you know by now, Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of the long running phenomenon, SpongeBob SquarePants, passed away on Monday November 26th at the age of 57, after battling Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, more commonly known as ALS, or Lou Gehrig's Disease, having announced his diagnosis in March of 2017.

Steve was a huge part of the childhood of many kids born in the 1990s and 2000s, not only through SpongeBob SquarePants, but also through his work writing, storyboarding, producing and directing episodes of another popular Nicktoon, Rocko's Modern Life, on which he also served as executive story editor, and was promoted to creative director on the show's final season.

In 1989, he enrolled in CalArts's Experimental Animation Program, studying under the late great Jules Engel, whom Steve considered to be his "Art Dad" and mentor. He graduated from CalArts in 1992, with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Experimental Animation. That same year, he made his first animated works, the short films The Green Beret, and Wormholes

He met Rocko's Modern Life's creator, Joe Murray, at the 1992 Ottawa International Animation Festival, where Wormholes, and Murray's My Dog Zero were both in competition. At the time, Joe was looking for people to direct Rocko's Modern Life. He saw Steve's film and offered him a directorial job on the show. Working on Rocko not only allowed Steve to repay his loans, but he also "learned a great deal about writing and producing animation for TV".

Before he was a cartoonist, Steve worked various jobs after graduating from Humboldt State University in 1984, including working as a park service attendant in Utah, and as an art director in San Francisco. Eventually, he found a job at the Orange County Marine Institute (now known simply as The Ocean Institute), teaching marine biology to students for the next three years. It was during his tenure at OCMI, that he created an educational comic book about the animal life of tidal pools. It was called The Intertidal Zone, and featured anthromorphic forms of sea life, many of which would evolve into characters on SpongeBob SquarePants.

In 1997, the original pilot of SpongeBob SquarePants, "Help Wanted", was produced, and has a few minor changes from the aired episode. It can be viewed here: 
On May 1, 1999, "Help Wanted", along with its sister episodes, "Reef Blower", and "Tea at the Treedome", premiered on Nickelodeon immediately following the 1999 Kids' Choice Awards. The special preview airing brought in 6.9 million viewers, which was and still is, huge for cable network standards. Then on July 17, 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants officially began its run on Nickelodeon, with the episodes "Bubblestand" and "Ripped Pants".

By 2002, SpongeBob had surpassed another long-running Nicktoon, Rugrats, as Nickelodeon's most popular animated series. And during its ratings peak, it was not unusual for episodes to draw in over 5 million viewers. The most watched episode of the series was the special "Atlantis SquarePantis", which was watched by 9.22 million viewers when it aired in November 2007.

Steve resigned as showrunner after the end of the third season and the first movie in 2004, and named Paul Tibbitt as his successor. The post-movie era switched the show from script-driven to storyboard-driven, and had a lot of ups and downs, with quite a few stinkers but also a few episodes that can compare with the best of the pre-movie era.

During the second half of Season 9 (production of Season 9 was halted for production of the second movie), Steve "returned" to the show, though technically he had never really left, still being credited as executive producer. Season 9B also saw the show return to being script-driven, and Vincent Waller and Marc Ceccarelli took over as showrunners. And for the most part, the post-sequel era has seen a huge increase in quality, with few bad episodes, and some absolute gems like "Mimic Madness", "Feral Friends", "The Legend of Boo-Kini Bottom", "Squid Noir", "Doodle Dimension", "My Leg!", "Karen's Virus", and "Goons on the Moon".

Now let me tell you a short little story about how Steve and SpongeBob was a part of my childhood. When I was a kid, I loved the art style of the show (I still do), especially the backgrounds. I always used to try and draw the buildings, like SpongeBob's pineapple, Squidward's Easter Island head, Patrick's rock, and the Krusty Krab, the design of which is based on a New England lobster trap. I also tried drawing SpongeBob himself quite a few times, but I could never get the shape exactly right. I also own a few SpongeBob VHS tapes and DVD box sets, including "The First 100 Episodes" set, as well as the box sets of the first three seasons.

In all, Stephen Hillenburg was a very talented person, and he will be sorely missed. He may have been only 57 years old when he passed away, but he left such a huge legacy that we will continue to admire and evaluate his work for many more years to come.
