Yeah, I’m a little unclear. It seems, like you said, a contractor came out and did the demo portion of the job before realizing they got scammed and stopped the work. What I was expecting was that a new driveway had been installed and the unpaid contractor went back and ripped it out - but that doesn’t seem to be the…

The world needs artists. The human race needs artists. The industry does not.

You’re right that AI doesn’t quite learn the same way as a human but still way off in your understanding.

Good luck. I feel like silly lawsuits like these are still just being fuelled by a weak understanding of how AI art generation works and the misconception that it’s just copy/pasting elements from the works its referencing.

Let me describe what she and most squares think...

As a dad of two young boys, this drives me crazy. Just fucking live and don’t hurt anyone. Nothing else. You want to play Tetris? Fucking play it until your fingers bleed. You want to ride your bike? Ride it. I will never understand people’s need to downplay a kid’s (or an adult’s) passions. My parents had me second…

When asked for a response they replied

I am still sickened at how the medical-industrial-complex allowed Gypsy’s case to happen at all. It does seem that a few physicians suspected something, but I fear that Dee Dee’s cleverness and most doctors/hospitals/pharma companies’ greed allowed obvious child abuse to go unchecked. And while Dee Dee’s is an extreme…

I don’t know what kind of evidence her defense presented during her trial, but reading about the case earlier today, I can’t imagine voting to convict had I been on the jury.

With the exception of his early year pre-Scientology years, where he was reportedly a bullying homophobe on-set, everybody who has worked with Tom Cruise has described him as friendly, kind, and professional. On a working level, Tom Cruise is a “good guy”.

Um, it’s pronounced “an ICE change of pace”,  thank you

I’m afraid the chances of that are below zero.

The Joker was always my favorite Batman villain, and even I’m sick of him at this point. How about a Mr. Freeze movie for once? The Arnie version, specifically. It’d be an ice change of pace. 

“....... I'M A FIVE STAR MAN!!"

That’s like saying the country “didn’t need” Apocalypse Now or The Deer Hunter. Artists reflect the world we live in. No one’s making you not watch reruns of The Office instead.

“Honestly, it would have majorly benefitted from just being it’s own 6-8 episode series OR even season 2 of Ms Marvel.”

I never understand the argument that people didn’t see something because it is bad.

That’s weird because what I’ve heard is the reason the movie is bad is because they took a 150 minute run time and trimmed it down to less than 90 minutes making everything feel half assed and incomplete.

It’s a much better movie than a lot of the post-Endgame stuff. I think the biggest issue is that people paying for Disney+ no longer feel like paying even more to see every MCU film a couple months earlier. There’s no sense of urgency to justify that extra expense now.

Haven’t the reviews been pretty positive? Meaning, this is more of a marketing failure, or a failure of overall studio strategy, rather than a lack of quality in the film?
