My friend, independent filmmaker @BrianMcquery, has his first feature length film, @PleaFilm, available for rental or purchase on @PrimeVideo. It's a powerful and moving story of redemption. Check it out.

They can keep the seats as-is and just lose the 35 minutes of commercials and trailers and the 47 minutes of soft-focus Nicole Kidman telling me how great AMC is. deadline.com/2024/11/amc-en… via @Deadline

Was privileged to attend the very last show at the @musicboxtheatre before the renovation began. I wasn’t prepared to be so moved by the legacy of those seats.

One last look at @musicboxtheatre's main theater after Sunday's final movie. Renovations will bring in new seats and spruce up that proscenium arch starting on Monday.

Despite significant backlash already, I suspect the AI world still underestimates the strength of anti-AI art sentiment.
This Daily Show segment on the Suno & Udio lawsuits is a bellwether:
"But this does bring up an important question, which is: should AI be involved in art? And the answer is, no, it shouldn't. We need to decide as a society that AI - it's not allowed to make art, Ok? It can help make an elevator go faster, or analyze medical data, that's fine - but leave art to human artists." ➡ Cue large audience applause.
Gen AI companies must truly work with creators, building tools that help them rather than compete with them, if they want to win public trust.
This starts with licensing their training data.

There is no generative AI in Beyond the Spider-Verse and there never will be. One of the main goals of the films is to create new visual styles that have never been seen in a studio CG film, not steal the generic plagiarized average of other artists’ work.
Nitro-Spidey@NitroSpidey
Dear @SonyAnimation. Keep generative AI away from Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse. AI robs people of their jobs & produces nothing but slop. We don’t want that anywhere near this film or any film for that matter. Please keep it away from the filmmaking process. Thank you.

@nandoprince93 Can you share the Apple Pencil grip that still alllows magnetic charging?

Woahhhh this is going to absolutely change the game 🤤

Every generative AI announcement, every creator out there should be asking what the training data is, until these companies stop building their products on copyrighted work without permission.
The more people ask the question, the harder it is for them to evade it.

My latest binge watch doodle in my @sketchwallet is the excellent @netflixseries #BlueEyeSamurai. I was engaged by the intense storytelling, beautiful visuals and character design. Have you seen it yet? What did you think? 🌊

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single commercial offend and turn off a core customer base as much as this iPad spot.
Achieves the opposite of their legendary 1984 spot. It’s not even that it’s boring or banal. It makes me feel… bad? Bummed out?

I’ve also had people ask me if my profile pic, which I illustrated, was made my A.I. They did not enjoy my answer. Not that I was rude, but they got a 10-15 TedTalk about human creativity and how machines cannot create art.
Matt Cohen@mattcohen2
The other day, somebody told me they liked my new profile picture. Then they asked me if it was AI. They didn't even consider that it might have been drawn by a human being. Think about it -- their STARTING assumption upon seeing art was "art is all made by programs." (1/X)

Perth has the right idea. I’d love to see all Comic Cons and Festivals take a similar stance. @c2e2 @FANEXPOHQ @Reed_POP @fanexpochicago
PCAF ~ Perth Comic Arts Festival@PerthComicsFest
Today, we’ve released a statement elaborating on our decision not to allow any AI-generated materials at Perth Comic Arts Festival. You can find our full statement on our website, and see our summary in the thread below. (1/4)

What's truly wild is Apple was barely even registering in this most recent cultural backlash—the ire was directed towards OpenAI, Microsoft, etc. Apple literally said, hold on, we want a piece of that—what if we made the 1984 ad but just made *ourselves* the soul-sucking megacorp
English
Even as an Apple brand loyalist, I think they deserve all the heat they are getting over this literally tone-deaf ad. Creatives have always been Apple power users. This feels like a stab in the back.
Brian Merchant@bcmerchant
What an incredible self own by Apple, lol—at a time when artists, musicians and creatives are more worried than ever that tech companies are trying to crush them into dust for profit, along comes Apple and makes an *ad* whose whole message is: yes that is exactly what we're doing

The friendship between Franklin Armstrong and Charlie Brown started with a letter. On this day in 1968, a schoolteacher named Harriet Glickman wrote to Peanuts cartoonist Charles Schulz asking him to add a Black character to his comic, marking the beginning of Franklin’s story.

I got to share my two cents in this great article by Jon Porter at @verge on the case for physical media in a world dominated by streaming services.
Nobody needs to own as many movies as I do, but I would encourage you to buy some of your favorites!
