burning down the natural world to shittily remake a movie about burning down the natural world
What value is there in adapting the animated medium to live action?
no idea--just making it for fun
prompters turn gold to shit and then shrug and go "i dunno lol"
If this were written satire it would be called hackey and too on the nose.
"You chose to do this to Princess Mononoke specifically because of its themes of technology corrupting nature allows your project to be an Iron-ic (sorry can't resist the pun) way to show the devastating influence of AI 'art', right?"
"It's what themes? I just think it looks cool!"
Now I fully understand why chuds are embracing this neo-technocracy with open arms.
If tech will be used to rank each and every one of us, the biased data AI makes their lazily formed biases seem intelligent so their mass extermination is actually a big-brained move.
I don’t care if I am rock bottom in any ranking, I’m a goddamn human being and have a right to life no matter how ‘inferior’ I am. If a race of super intelligent, technologically advanced aliens come and abduct us, are these bazingas going to be whimpering for the probe?
Because the models that made everyone PoC by default were “corrected”
"The Mononoke trailer is a shot-for-shot remake of the trailer"
shows trailer side by side
is not a shot for shot remake by any standards
Defacing of beautiful hand drawn animation like Mononoke should be considered defacing art or at the very least, vandalism.
Jesus Christ don't we have enough evidence at this point that replacing beautifully animated works of art with live action is always a bad proposition?
You only need to do this shit when you don't want to pay a screenwriter or a director to do the designs for an original piece of art. "Oh, everyone liked The Movie: Animated? We can just gut the dialogue, set design, art, framing, story, iconic characters, and soundtrack, then tell people we made it better by using live performers."
AI strips it down one more level and just changes how the art is rendered. Damn, the problem with Princess Monenoke was THE GRAPHICS WEREN'T GOOD ENOUGH. It's not even "live action". It's just performance tuning.
Miyazaki getting the production crew from Homeward Bound and making a live action live animal film maybe could be fucking awesome. Idfk. But This. Ain't. It.
I don't think adaptations are necessarily anti art. There are a myriad of books, films, stage performances, animated shows and animated movies which are adapted from each other which showcase a beautiful story in a variety of forms.
The issue is doing this shit for a cash grab and not actually trying to create a beautiful adaptation of a story.
We're gonna find out that the grifters are actually also just chatbots.
I was recommended a Japanese channel that did this with FF6 and it was just awful
You had airbrushed ai waifu Terra and Celes with doll-like faces just kind of lounging around boobily making porn faces and the Magitek soldiers were just American troops in desert camo
Magitek soldiers were just American troops
Y'know I'm an easy going guy generally, but anyone unironically saying "Kling credits" as if that's a real thing needs to be taken out and [REDACTED]
i yearn for death and destruction of all AI related slop companies and techbros.Who is this person and why do they presume that they would ever be approached by Ghibli to make a live action Mononoke? Delusional.
Watching the side by side it’s easy to see how much of this is completely devoid of technical considerations. AI is capable of tweening images, but each shot is framed more or less like a portrait with no movement. I think that turning a storyboard into a live action film will be a viable pipeline at some point in the next couple years, but it’s going to involve just as much process development as it is going to revolve around technical achievements in AI.
We can complain all we want about how this guy burned down a forest to make a shitty fanfic recut of the Princess Mononoke trailer, but looking at his costs and the costs of making movies in general, it’s hard to argue that this isn’t going to become a thing.
