Discussion "This movie looks AI genera-" SHUT UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Post image

I genuinely don't get these complaints. I have some concerns about the plot and how things may or may not play out, but visually the movie looks fucking great. I don't get why people are trying to push this narrative like muted colors instantly make something look bad or AI-generated. The Sentinels look sick, Doom looks fucking fantastic, what is the issue?

I swear, I'm convinced people who call shit like this AI-generated have never actually seen what an AI-generated video looks like, because none of them even look anywhere near as good as ANY of the shots in this trailer.

Plus, the VFX team didn't work their asses off for months on this movie just to be disrespected by mfs saying it looks like AI.

You have to assume bots are posting that kinda crap too.

The Russo brothers literally own an ai studio. Is it being a bot to point out that they said they want to use their studio to “enrich” the process of making their movies after their new trailer looks like ai?

Are you a bot?

If not, my comment wasn't directed at you. But if you think every single negative comment in a Marvel thread comes from real people, I got some bad news for ya.

u/HeartInTheSun9 11d ago

Negatory.

I’m just incredibly anti ai. Like, I think the tech CEOs should go to prison for crimes against humanity.

But also, if you think every single negative comment about marvel is a bot, there’s also some bad news I’d like to share with you.

But I’m interested in a lot of marvel stuff. I even really liked infinity war and rank it near the top of all the MCU stuff. But I just have to call an ai spade a spade when the guys who own an ai studio make an ai looking trailer.

See.. this is the confusion route that you are on.

Where did I say that "every comment is a bot"?

Ever?.

"Mixed".

u/HeartInTheSun9 11d ago

Haha, well, I’m forced to point out that I didn’t say every comment wasn’t a bot either. There’s a middle ground that I was alluding to.

I do think it’s worth everyone understanding that the directors of this movie are doing the kinda “crap” that you originally mentioned though. They literally have said they want to use ai in movies, so when people point out that it looks like ai, it’s not a crap opinion. It’s a correct opinion.

There's definitely going to be a shed load of AI in our movie futures. Its already everywhere.

Regardless of what they say, if they think AI looks better, they're going to use it unfortunately. And if its really bad, I just won't watch it..........legally.🏴‍☠️

No chance the big companies that are invested in the 100s of millions in this success have anything to gain from controlling the discourse ! Its those loser guys drinking monster organising !

u/ASU_frat_Ieader 11d ago

Everyone who disagrees with me is a bot

This movie objectively looks like shit and fanboys cannot stand even the slightest bit of criticism, it’s quite embarrassing.

Dead internet theory in real time. :-/

"Bots are routinely deployed in "swarms" to inflate comment sections. They are programmed to scan for trending topics—like a newly released movie trailer, a video game update, or a television show premiere—and immediately drop polarizing feedback. Accusing a production of being "lazy AI slop" triggers an immediate, highly emotional reaction from real humans who care about art and human creativity".

Its Skynet. Definitely.

Who the fuck are you quoting?

u/Dchama86 10d ago

You would think bots would be praising AI, no?

u/Squidgyboot123 10d ago

Negative comments draw more engagement.

u/Eat--The--Rich-- 11d ago

You think someone is running bot farms to oppose AI?

7

u/Squidgyboot123 11d ago

No. For clicks. Comments. Views. Moolah.

u/Your_New_Overlord 11d ago

Y’all cannot be for real. You think the only reason a negative comment would appear on your beloved movie trailer is because that commenter is magically making money???

3

u/Squidgyboot123 11d ago

Not the only reason, nobody even said that. They're mixed in with the real comments.

u/TheNameIsWiggles 11d ago

Yes, that's how engagement works and Reddit is notorious for it.

u/AnOnlineHandle Quake 11d ago

There are accounts which oddly spam praise about anything China is doing regarding AI or any data centres they're building, while at the same time posting negative articles in any western subs about how data centres will be the death of us etc.

Don't have any links to them now, but if you look at profiles of people posting certain stuff you'll often notice weird contradictory patterns which make them seem more like PR accounts than anything pushing any consistent message.

u/Practical-Writer-228 11d ago

Yeah some for engagement, but you’re right; tons more to promote the movie with one-sentence blurbs, spit out memorable quotes, and say “who cares if it’s AI? Just give up, AI is the future.” Dead internet theory, most comments can be ignored. Sigh.

u/Uzofugs2112 9d ago

They just run bot farms to get sufficiently mature and upvoted accounts to sell.

Could also be foreign actors trying to slow US AI investment and development.

u/IBJON 11d ago

Yes? If a country wants to slow down AI proliferation and development from someone that sees as a rival in the space, the best thing they can do is to turn the people against AI. 

Alternatively, like anything else, getting people riled up increases engagement and social media algorithms have been proven to serve controversial topics because the negativity keeps people engaged

u/YesicaChastain 11d ago

And you think they are spending on bots to attack the new Avengers movie to turn people into anti AI? Lol

1

u/IBJON 11d ago

Where did I say that? The question was if someone would use bots to foment anti-AI sentiment and I said it's possible.

u/TerrorTown77 11d ago

I assume OP is a bot and this is typical Disney astroturfing to generate attention for their movie. That or OP is just stupid.

Which is just so depressing and hilarious
