Pixar’s Pete Docter and Ghibli’s Hayao Miyazaki Disagree on the Value of Test Screenings
Following the premiere of Inside Out 2, which has performed well both domestically and overseas, Docter discussed many different elements of the creation process, including test screenings, which are used to gauge how audiences react to certain elements or scenes. When Docter asked Miyazaki if Ghibli holds test screenings for its films, Miyazaki stated that it does not. “No, it is impossible for all viewers to understand a film,” he explains. “We are the ones who take responsibility, so we can’t leave it to someone who happens to be there.”
Miyazaki must die on the inside each time he hears about this stuff
I can’t even imagine. After a long life of making wonderful things, getting prodded by phillistines this way every time you leave the house.
The difference between an artist and a soulless art salesman
Hayao is a goat standing on top of a mountain made from a series of ever slightly larger goats. The Hayao goat mountain has no discernable base.
I like to imagine the goat mountain sits atop the back of a single, giant, goat. And that goats name? Is John Darnielle
They’re calling it the most Reddit movie ever made
Imagine Ready Player One, but somehow worse and in every IP in reach.
Big bird is the deuteragonist. He shoots people, has sex, smokes a doobie, and says “hell” twice.
You won’t take this from me.
Sesame Street is the most successful education program because it taught both kindergarteners and stoners important things about life.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
deadpool and wolverine but even worse than you could even imagine
Focus testing lord of the rings remake and introducing 40 minutes tom bombadil section, but without the dumb singing [post]
It’s a coin toss between a slick mobile game like all-ages veneer where it has that bland Disney look, or it goes for the type of perpetually adolescent hogs ages 14-88 that call themselves “grown-ass adults” and it’ll instead try to become Gambo with a sloppy slathering of with nonpolitical characteristics.
We could power the world with a turbine hooked up to the spinning corpse of Tolkien if they did gambo style “sex-exposition” during the Tom sequence that also attempted to explain his origin story.
Yessss this is the UlyssesT content I missed, straight into my veins

I suspect that I criticized your treats at one point and you have had an unhealthy obsession with me ever since.
Stay mad.
Or better yet, don’t. It’s sad.
If that’s what you really think, take it up with the admins.

Superfan test group (bunch of 40 year old redditors): I don’t think this is gonna play well with most of us fans dawg
“You went and made it political.”
The Last Jedi really caused all of this by making Star Wars fans think

all these movies already suck AI can’t even make them worse at this point
That remains to be seen

I’d be more welcoming of it as trash for trash’s sake if it didn’t burn additional forests and dry up additional lakes to make the trash.

The home computer versions of LLMs are fine by me, really.
The massive scale corporate hype-driven data center gold rush is fucked and is already an environmental disaster.
Check out the ai beer commercial somebody made, it is nonsensical enough to be funny.
It"s no fun for me because there’s nothing behind it. You can’t laugh at ai slop because it’s just nothing. Random movements in a stream. It’s not chuds being twits, or liberals being up their own asses. Laughing at bazingas for thinking ai noise is art is only fun a few times and those times were years ago.
How long is a kaleidescope really entertaining before the random motion of shapes and colors grows dull?
This along with unlimited treats via the AI printer means I’ll never be challenged again and have to think!
I guarantee the hogs will think they’ve entered a golden age of nonpolitical hog slop consumption… but that ennui will build all the same, and they’ll blame anything and everything except the source of it: art got their attention in the first place because it was different and interesting and pandering alone isn’t enough. They won’t change, but they’ll also be increasingly dissatisfied and maybe burn studios down or something.
Now you’ve got me wondering about how Nazis perceived the shlocky “wholesome” movies that the Nazi regime kicked out for entertainment during the Reich.
Without knowing for sure, I dare suspect a similar phenomenon occurred back then.
It will be become background noise and imagery while they are texting their daughter’s friend.
Gonna be movies full of AI and '"hey remember this? "
So Star Wars Episode IX.
Imagine if they didn’t chicken out from the backlash to The Last Jedi and actually expanded on the plot? Made it an actual trilogy?
Ten thousand Star Destroyers® each with a Death Star® superlaser is already a slop basis to start with.
How about ten thousand giant spinning many-edged planet-cutting lightsabers, each wielded by a cyberpunkerino waifu?
is that even possible
Literally producing a movie via committee. People really want a realistic down-to-earth franchise that’s completely off the wall and swarming with magic robots.
Not just committee, but the worst committee on earth.
WW3 can’t come soon enough.
It’s going to happen, isn’t it? Red Skull is going to become an avenger?
Can’t wait until Twitter clucks about how Hollywood finally dropped the ‘political crap’ as Red Skull solos all of Wakanda without a scratch on him.
Mr. Anderrrson!
