But let's be absolutely consistent on this: stop bringing back dead people. We've proved repeatedly we can recast, people accept and understand recasting, we've done it since time immemorial, there's no reason to do it. Actors' identities are not franchise property.

film twitter be like cgi digital necromancy is killing cinema as we know it. let’s all clap for this sex pest though 💕

The IDF is like if ISIS had a $24 billion budget and unlimited support from the richest military power in the world

Naked is the cinematic equivalent of injecting dirty needles off an alley floor so idk how the fuck this is "pretentious"

Slavery is still legal in the United States if the government can pin a crime on you

i need you guys to understand that people can’t control what the people they’re related to believe i’m sorry you guys live in fairytale land where everyone in your entire family would’ve voted for obama a third time but some people live in the real world

Maybe a bolder choice is not capitulating to loud fandoms that won't allow their franchises to grow or evolve, and constantly self-recycle themselves.

devils advocate here 12 years ago we all collectively stopped buying music from artists and instead give them $0.003 per stream The price of whatever else was left to sell eg concert experiences was going to go up eventually

When you bring up that name as a rebuttal for Terrifier's extremity, you're officially too far gone.

PS, how this gets framed around the psychological trauma of Israeli soldiers and not the victims of genocidal violence is just wild.

At what point do you acknowledge that owning Twitter and being buddy buddy with the next president of the United States means you're not the underdog anymore?

I can’t get over this. They clearly had a pristine scan and they still ran this ridiculous AI filtration process on it. This is a defective product unfit for any purpose. Why is there no set of industry best practices around the use of AI in film restoration?

Israel turned a metropolis into rubble and world leaders watched them do it without hesitation

*doesn't want to read too much into it* *immediately casts off all modern movies* Nothing more I hate than this reductive generalisation of a complex issue (see: everyone jerking off 35mm in the comments) Digital cinema can look FANTASTIC with the same amount of effort & care

This was Keir Starmer's genocide too. He was all in on this. Fuck your 'lesser evil' that sort of manipulative sheepdogging is never going to work again

it's so devastating to lose someone so sincere and kind and wholesome in this horrible world descending into madness, it reminds you of how desperately we need to be tender

something predictably ghoulish about Netflix patting themselves on the back for working with Lynch after reportedly years they spent dragging their feet producing his next project

I much prefer a world where we over-correct by shit-talking ANY use of AI, than a world where we slowly normalize it through indifference.
