A weird side effect of seeing all these Hollywood blockbuster style AI videos is that I get less and less interested in watching actual Hollywood blockbusters.

It’s kind of like when someone makes a parody of a genre that’s so accurate that it ruins it and you can’t see/do it the same way again.

I think now that anyone can make Marvel style visuals we’ll see some really interesting stuff, maybe with a grungier more ”handmade” feel. Since you can’t compete by going bigger and flashier you’ll have to compete by being more interesting and unique. That’s my hope anyway.

@ponysmasher I feel this. The harder a pendulum swings one way, the harder the return.

@ponysmasher I believe at one point or another there will start a similar craze as to the wave of "no CGI" advertisements to films. As we now have Christoper Nolan and Tom Cruise ( no CGI ), we will have people that will be strictly no-AI. And a big part of the advertisement of the film will go into documenting how human-made everything is ( even if it is CGI ).

@ponysmasher I think is this the biggest genuine threat to “Hollywood” movies, not that people will actually want to watch the AI version of Fast and Furious, but that the deluge of slop makes a “real” production just feel like another prompt demo.

@ponysmasher Just ran across a Daniel Craig quote to the effect that Austin Powers so utterly skewered Bond that there was no coming back. I've also seen some spectacular Star Wars slop, entertaining only because of the pre-existing context.
