This isn't meant to diss my former classmates but to affirm jacob's point that film schools are by no means brimming with snobs well-versed in the canon

Surprise Eyebrow Cinema! 🤖Art Without The Artist, and Other Horrors from The Machine🤖 Was gonna wait for a sponsor, but the Russos have me steaming. A.I. Art is not Art and it never can be.

Depressing that this article fawns over AI-generated performance with only the most middling of critique. The gradual erasure of the human presence in art is good, actually, so long as it maintains our favourite characters.

I find it interesting that Joe's first response to Scorsese's amusement park films comment was this faux salt of the earth "we don't call em cinema, we call em movies" rhetoric and now it's "well I make more money than you"

This seemed to strike a chord. For more elaborate thoughts on the role of film critics, here's a case study examining Roger Ebert's relationship with Martin Scorsese

Sometimes the fraud syndrome hits pretty hard and I worry the videos I make are really bad and everyone is just too nice tell me that I suck. But then I see something like this and realize "naw I'm good" lmao

If there must be TV, I'd rather a sister-site for shows that users could link to their Letterboxd account if they wanted. But let Letterboxd be for movies.

Temple of Doom ends with Indy returning the Sivalinga stone to Mayapore. When asked why he won't take it back to America, Indy responds, "What for? They'd just put it in a museum." Begging y'all to actually watch movies before making your cheap dunks

I feel like May the 4th would be more fun if it celebrated a movie that wasn't discussed ad nauseam in basically all corners of the internet already. Maybe we can change it to The Thin Red Line Day or something

That the people fawning over AI art are always tech bros and not artists, who talk about disrupting markets rather than meaning or aesthetic, is very telling.
