  • The entire point of fanservice was to give small nods to people who are really familiar with a franchise, but we’ve reached a point where studios are so creatively bankrupt that the entire move is just fanservice because they literally don’t want to bother making anything original.

    Matrix 4 is a prime example. A total wankfest of “Remember this? Remember this? Remember this?”. What were they thinking?

    Another non-superhero example was Kingsman 2, when they brought a popular character back to life just to exist in the movie again. A lot of recent sequels feel like they’re just digging out parts of the previous movies and just doing them again. I’ll see Beetlejuice Beetlejuice when it hits digital but I also am extremely suspicious it’s going to just be “Beetlejuice 1 again”.






















  • Outside of benchmarks it’s really not as big of a deal as openAI wants you to think it is. In most cases it’s slightly better than Claude, except it uses 50x the tokens repeating info to itself and is way slower. There are a lot of people that tried o1 online and are posting screenshots of it making basic mistakes or gaslighting itself in its chain of thought. Not to mention you only get 30 messages PER WEEK since it’s such a waste of energy.

    It’s a desperate attempt by openAI to stay relevant now that competitors and even free models are catching up.

    It’s using… Live action actors? I thought this was going to be a full on animated movie.

    Looks about as lazy as I expected when I first heard it. I can’t get over how bad the world looks though, it’s like someone downloaded a 4K hyper realistic texture pack that doesn’t look anything like the game itself.
