‘Fixed' Trailer: Genndy Tartakovsky's Animated Dog Story is Definitely Not For Kids
Directed by Tartakovsky and co-written by him and Jon Vitti (best known for his work on 'The Simpsons'), 'Fixed' focuses on 24 hours in the life of Bull (voiced by Adam DeVine), a good-natured bloodhound with a habit of humping everyone around him. When he discovers that his owners are going to neuter him, he journeys out to the city with other dogs in his neighborhood to embark on one last wild night with his balls while he still has them. The red-band trailer shows what that entails, and it includes: Squirrels getting graphically torn up and eaten, rats chewing on comically large dog genitals, and an extended sequence with female dog 'strippers.'

Tartakovsky's first traditional 2D animated film after directing several 'Hotel Transylvania' movies for Sony Pictures Animation, 'Fixed' comes to Netflix after a lengthy and difficult process to find distribution. Tartakovsky originally conceived of the film in 2009, and it was announced in 2018 after the success of his three 'Hotel Transylvania' films. Produced by Sony, the film was originally set to be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures through their New Line Cinema distribution arm, only to get dropped and have its theatrical release canceled in 2024. Netflix would ultimately save the film, acquiring the rights for it earlier this year.
Aside from Devine, 'Fixed' features a large ensemble voice cast that includes Idris Elba, Kathryn Hahn, Fred Armisen, Bobby Moynihan, Beck Bennett, Michelle Buteau, and River Gallo. The movie originally premiered at the 2025 Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 11, and will premiere on Netflix August 13. Watch the complete trailer below.

‘Cyberpunk: Edgerunners' Star Lucy Finally Comes to ‘Guilty Gear Strive'
Fans of the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime have been looking forward to seeing Lucy cut it up in Guilty Gear Strive as a DLC character for a while now. During this weekend's EVO tournament, Arc System Works finally pulled back the curtain on how everyone's favorite living Edgerunner fits into its fighting game. Lucy's appearance here looks to be justified through her mind being hacked and transferred to the Guilty Gear universe. Still dealing with the events of Edgerunners that left her old crew dead, she's determined to figure out why she's here and how to get back home. Until she finds those answers, she's got some tricks to hold her own against Sol Badguy and the rest of the Strive roster. Gameplay-wise, her she's got her wrist whips, and her hacking prowess lets her disable her enemy's powers while boosting her own, which is a neat way to adapt her style for fighting game purposes. For the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners fans, playing as Lucy in competitive or the story mode looks to feature some callbacks to the show. She's the first guest character to grace Guilty Gear Strive (and the series overall, looks like) and funnily enough, its second consecutive anime addition. Before her, Arc System Works added Unika from the game's anime series Dual Riders to the roster this past May. Lucy enters Guilty Gear Strive on August 21, and we'll wait to see if she graces Cyberpunk: Edgerunners II with her presence when that series hits Netflix in the near future. Want more io9 news?

Important MCU Movie Is Missing From Disney Plus
A wide range of Marvel Cinematic Universe properties are currently available to stream on Disney Plus. In fact, just about every major MCU movie and show is available to stream on the platform between Disney's ownership, their acquisition of 20th Century Fox, and their licensing deal with Sony. Unfortunately, there's one important MCU movie still missing from Disney Plus in the meantime. With all of their deals and acquisitions in place, some of the rights issues surrounding certain films can be tricky, and that means a few titles have the tendency to bounce back and forth between streaming services. This happens to be the case with one MCU movie that fans would absolutely love to have on Disney Plus. Unfortunately, it just isn't available – though that could change in the future. Interestingly, it is available to stream elsewhere, thanks to the complicated rights issues behind the film. While it's unclear when or if it could appear on Disney Plus, it does seem likely that everything will be sorted out with the mere passage of time. This film, of course, is none other than Spider-Man: No Way Home . The 2021 Spider-Man sequel was released just prior to a deal made between Disney Plus and Sony Pictures which would make Disney Plus the home for Sony's Spider-Man movies. Unfortunately, the deal only covers films released in 2022, which means Spider-Man: No Way Home just barely missed the cutoff by being released in December 2021. Sony also has deals in place with Netflix which can complicate things further. As for now, the formula seems to be that a Spider-Man movie released by Sony will hit theaters, then nine months later Netflix will offer the title for streaming. The film will stay on Netflix for a total of 18 months before Disney Plus will then host the title. Due to the time in which the deals were made, Spider-Man: No Way Home actually has a streaming home on Starz for the time being. It's been available on the platform since January 14, 2024. If one applies the 18 month rule from their Netflix deal, however, then that would make the film available to leave on July 14, 2025. It remains to be seen if the title actually will – especially since Disney Plus hasn't made any suggestion that they'll be acquiring No Way Home or that Starz will be losing it – but it's definitely something to look out for. As such, we'll have to see where the licensing rights behind Spider-Man: No Way Home take the film next. Fortunately, it could very well be Disney Plus once the time is right. The MCU movie will then be at home with all of the other titles tied to the franchise. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates as we have them.
