RIP Cinefex Magazine???

Just got announced on Twitter.

If there's no rescue for this publication, it will indeed be a sad day for movie makers and the people learning those arts.

Oh, man! Words fail.

Maybe in a couple of years it can be resurrected? But I can't imagine it would be as good, the people behind it will have scattered to the four winds.

Makes me wish they'd tried a GoFundMe to save it.

I don't know what decisions the management decided to not try doing. But clearly, GoFundMe was ruled out for whatever reasons they had.

I would hope that the title can be revived, preferably soon, if it cannot be rescued. Yes, there are websites that cover some of the ground and many of the VFX workers now maintain their own websites promoting and explaining their works. It still isn't the same service that Cinefex has been providing to its audience.
