Every Randy Newman song in the first Toy Story is great, but Strange Things is such a banger. Since rewatching the movie, I haven’t been able to stop listening to it. Hits different as an adult.

[Cinema Nation @CinemaNation_]

Good trailer… Great even

[Spider-Man Movie @SpiderManMovie]

The world may have forgotten Peter Parker, but he hasn't forgotten them.

[Art Directors Guild @ADG800]

The Art Directors Guild, IATSE Local 800 #adg800 has issued a statement on Martin Scorsese’s recent promotion of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI):

"Mr. Scorsese, The Business is not in flux.

Oscar winning director Martin Scorsese is turning his back on the human artists who throughout his career have helped him create his most memorable works.

In the recently released Black Forest Labs video promoting their generative AI product FLUX, Mr. Scorsese asks the question, “how do you communicate what you see in your head to your cast and crew?” He claims the solution is the use of this generative AI program to do the jobs that are rightfully the jurisdiction of Art Directors Guild Local 800 artists and designers - human artists and designers who have been successfully collaborating with directors to visualize their films for decades. Mr. Scorsese's promotion of a generative AI product circumvents the input of Art Directors Guild Local 800 art directors, graphic artists, illustrators, production designers, scenic artists, set designers, and other talented Union professionals.

Generative AI is only capable of producing this type of “cinematic intelligence” by ingesting large swaths of copyrighted work, likely scraped from the internet without consent, credit, compensation, or transparency.

The skills of Art Directors Guild Local 800 artists and designers bring the highest level of value to any film or television production. To think their professional contributions can be mimicked or outshone by generative AI, which is built on work likely stolen from them and many other artists from around the world, is a betrayal of the collaborative nature of cinema."

[Josh Raby @JoshRaby]

There’s a case to be made that Tony Head’s work on Buffy is what makes Buffy work. It’s a show built on big fun and big emotion, but none of that holds together without Head rattling off the most insane gibberish you’ve ever heard in way that’s not only legible but engaging. RIP

[Cinema Nation @CinemaNation_]

I love the Alien Whippet

[Cinema Nation @CinemaNation_]

So sad. Having watched Buffy for the first time recently, Giles quickly stood out as one of the shows best characters and Anthony Stewart wonderfully brought him to life. Rest in peace.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Anthony Stewart Head has sadly passed away at the age of 72.

[uricksaladbar🥗 @uricksaladbar]

Scorsese storyboarded his classics with simple doodles and they turned out great, so this aspect of the pipeline being any higher fidelity just seems needlessly expensive and unnecessary

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

Yes! Also like, really smart kid

[Zak @zakfilm]

James Cameron, George Miller, David Fincher, Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott and more veteran filmmakers have sadly gave in to AI. It’s a bleak time for the industry and even more reason why younger filmmakers must break through to resist what the older generations have accepted as inevitable when it doesn’t need to be.

[Cinema Nation @CinemaNation_]

You’re better than this Marty

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Martin Scorsese has joined a generative AI startup as a partner and advisor.

He adds that he has used AI during pre-production to help with storyboarding — “with this tool, I can share what I’m visualizing more clearly & efficiently to my creative team — the production designer, art designer and cinematographer.”

"Niles, we're lost. That's the fourth time we've passed by the pile of frankly rather tasteless sheraton armchairs."

"Yes, the style clashes with the yellow wallpaper and endless billowing void. Then again, feng shui might fail to accommodate an open floor plan this... er, OPEN"

[Cinema Nation @CinemaNation_]

Bad idea.

Zack Snyder is set to direct a remake of ‘ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK’.

‘OBSESSION’ has earned $26.4M in its third weekend, a 10% increase.

• Weekend 1 - $16M
• Weekend 2 - $22.4M (+30%)
• Weekend 3 - $26.4M (+10%)

Simply unprecedented.

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

Chiwetel Ejiofor is like kinda incredible in Backrooms? Like he’s always great obviously but he’s really making a meal here
