“Actually a genius decision to have a movie based off a multiverse premise have different versions with slight variations so viewers have different experiences.”

It wasn’t exhausting because it was hard work. It was exhausting because Phil Lord is a crappy producer who doesn’t understand animation workflow.

You know . . . it’s almost like the Studios dont actually have the VFX workers best interests at heart here.

No art is worth the cost of humans lives and this is extremely disappointing to hear.

... I guess, welcome to making a movie.

You know, you CAN love the final product and still be dissapointed with how the studio abuses the VFX workers.

prompts were “raised by wolves intro” “green” and “looks like dogshit”

If I found out that my art had been used to train the program that made this stuff, I’d sure as fuck be looking for a payday from Disney (I mean, their lawyers would laugh in my face, but I’d still want one).

It’s weird how you don’t understand that whether they’re hostile takeovers or not is irrelevant to the problem.

Did you bring a harness for all those strawmen or is that a skill you’ve developed some expertise in? Nobody said anything about a hostile takeover, nobody said it wasn’t “rough to be an independent studio,” the issues with Work-for-Hire is a completely different topic, and “Embracer took a $2 billion gamble that…

Jerykk gonna jerryk.

Literally my point was that Embracer took on all these acquisitions without actually being able to afford them. I made no comments about any of these being hostile takeovers.

“Nobody is forcing these studios to accept buyouts.”

Super super cool how they acquired a bunch of (seemingly) stable and successful developers and now are gonna lay off a bunch of people and shut down those same studios because they got greedy and bought more than they could afford.

The less cute bit is the way Peter tries to use Mayday and his appreciation for fatherhood to convince Miles he should accept Miguel’s view of the multiverse, and maintain a “Canon” that has yet to happen but will destroy the family he’s fought so hard to keep connected to.

To them, employees are cogs, and it’s cheaper to replace cogs that suffer abuse than to protect or maintain them.

Companies have a duty of care to protect their employees and contractors from abuse.

“FaZe Clan” isn’t some group of backyard gamers, it’s a NASDAQ listed company (at least for now). It’s a workplace. It’s an employer. It’s not just an edgy group of insecure “gamer bros”, it’s a corporate entity.

Good luck attracting sponsors and investors if your brand stands for misogynistic bullying.

FaZe continues to look like the worst examples of gaming culture. I hope she gets out of the contract cleanly, though I’d prefer this shitstain of a human being get the boot instead, because this is some straight up harassment from Rain.
