I believe this is my final post here. I will keep this account locked and inactive so no one else can use my name. Fuck Elon Musk. Fuck this Nazi cesspool. Fuck everyone who ruined this place.

Someone's definitely being an asshole here, and it ain't Gunn. As someone who once took the world of "movie scoops" way too seriously, let me say there are no stakes here and acting like this is fucking embarrassing. You're not a tough guy. You're a paid gossip. Relax.

"AI -- when you absolutely positively have to wipe your dick on the classics.".
Another one. Already a powerful painting, but moving around it yourself gives a totally different feeling. Jacques Louis David's "The Death of Socrates" => #Genie3

Only, you can't, since Edward Hopper didn't paint any of this dogshit. I love how the view from behind the couple reveals she is evidently invisible and the guy is just a torso perched on a bar. There is absolutely nothing you can learn from this.
Something fun we discovered: you can use #Genie3 to step into and explore your favorite paintings. Here's a short visit to Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks".

"I have an advantage. I was flown to Vegas, given first-class treatment, and I obediently regurgitated all the selling points the billionaire gave me. Even the ones that were patently untrue.". Be honest when you're selling something.
I’m gonna call it a day. I have an advantage. I’ve seen it. It’s The Wizard of Oz. They have made it work on a unfathomably large screen. I remain worried about the impact AI will have on movies. This actually reassured me…in this case, it isn’t big, bad AI. Take care, everyone.

THE LAST '80s NEWSLETTER (YOU'LL EVER NEED) is my mad experiment where I'm reviewing every single film released in the United States in the theater in the 1980s, in order. It's also some of the best film writing I've ever done.
