Can’t stop thinking about the significance of the main vampire being Irish in SINNERS. He empathizes with the oppression of black Americans, but ultimately weaponizes his whiteness to become the thing he hated most by forcing his way of life onto them.

[Greg Baldwin @GregBaldwinIroh]

In conclusion…

Fuck you, Paramount.

'Backrooms' Director Kane Parsons Calls AI "Genuinely Harmful" To Creativity: "Cultural And Economic Rot" https://t.co/w5DQi6EgnH

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.”

Why do directors keep telling on themselves?

[Culture Crave 🍿 @CultureCrave]

Gareth Edwards is excited about AI filmmaking

"It’s so clearly a tool that might be up there with the camera"

He says AI has 'no taste whatsoever' when it comes to generating human stories, but is a 'fucking genius' at helping filmmakers organize ideas, test concepts, and produce images

“I view it like having a second-unit director who is a billionaire on acid”

He eventually wants to make a hybrid generative AI film

Feeling extremely vindicated for putting Disclosure Day in my very-early Best Picture predictions

[Variety @Variety]

Steven Spielberg’s “Disclosure Day” is already being called “Spielberg’s best film in 20 years,” with early praise for star Emily Blunt and growing awards buzz around her performance.

The movie was unveiled to members of the film press ahead of its June 12 release date.

Disclosure Day reviews calling it Spielberg’s best in 20 years when his last two films have already been some of his best ever…

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Steven Spielberg gives his thoughts on AI usage in filmmaking:

“I don't believe there is any substitute for the soul. I don't think that's an algorithm that is inventible... don't tell me I don't have the right antagonist in this story, don't tell me how to write my dialogue, don't tell me where the camera has to go…

If AI wants to help me find locations, that's great. Saves us some leg work… Use AI as a tool, but do not use AI as the final word on anything creative.”

I think Ian told Bear to call her Freaky Nikki because he was purposely trying to sabotage his chances

[Witch 🕷 @theblaiirwitch]

I'm still really bothered by the part in the movie "Obsession" where Bear tries to be funny by calling her that "nickname," knowing full well it offends her. It's clear he's not the kind of man you can have a relationship with.

Nobody (especially women) likes being called a nickname that was used to tease them. That doesn't help you find a partner; it just makes you look like a jerk.
