The constant condescension about ai is another aspect of it that makes me hate it more. The assumption is you can only be against it because you don't understand it like I do. No man. I don't like voluntarily making every human enterprise dependent on a tech run by a tiny group of financial maniacs

I would venture the hot take that John Williams ALWAYS delivers the goods, even when the movies don’t. There’s no such thing as a bad or even mid JW score...

Hot take: the John Williams score for JAWS 2 is top-notch work
JAWS 2 is a bit more camp, a bit more spectacle, a bit more horror. There are still grounded, human, elements, but they're not given the attention that Spielberg did...the goal here is to create a bigger, badder, grislier, shark film that looks good...and JAWS 2 succeeds pretty admirably at it.

Colbert and Kimmel have met the moment under our slide into fascism in a way that institutions, press, and the Democratic Party haven’t

Oh, man. Tom Noonan died? His performance as Francis Dolarhyde in Manhunter is one of the most terrifying, mesmerizing I've ever seen in a film.

To recap: “Artificial Intelligence” is
- driving up electricity prices
- ruining the livelihood of artists
- killing journalism
- wasting obscene amounts of water
- spitting out ugly art, incorrect facts and bad writing
- making students lazier
- making hard drives unavailable
- killing jobs
STOP 🛑

"what's the plan?" my goodness - beyond self-parody at this point

WHAT'S THE PLAN? YOU'RE DESCRIBING THE ARTISTIC PROCESS YOU BOZOOOOOSSSSS
AI filmmaking is completely unserious.

You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

All this for a piece of shit tech that doesn’t work and nobody really wants or needs...

It’s so hard to have a reasonable conversation about AI, because people refuse to see the massive upsides of job elimination, higher electrical bills, hard drive shortages, poisoning black people in Memphis, and an economy where a handful of pedos with bad hair control your life

One of my favorite modern joys is any post where someone says something like “I made this movie with AI. Time’s up Hollywood and all you fancy directors” and then the video sucks shit in ways you didn’t even know it was possible to suck shit.

This (great) movie is an entire homage specifically to Vertigo, you vainglorious jackass. I thought you were Mr. Movie Encyclopedia?...

Don’t know if it’s my Top Duvall (that might still be Tom Hagen) but I love his Bernie in THE PAPER. Just feel how he draws you in with this story. Man was a Giant...

Just came across a laughably bad AI video where a couple is having an argument but every time they cut between them they have changed places in the room and the room itself is slightly different. Like a ZAZ gag, and of course the minions on the comments all fawn over it...
