>Gunn compares Superman to AI art

Why the fuck would he put it like this, is he stupid

>>149049184 (OP)
>gunn
>stupid
nooo....

>>149049184 (OP)
Superman hallucinates and is mostly used for lewd elsa pictures.

>>149049184 (OP)
He's based just this once. Artists are insufferable jealous pricks.

>>149049184 (OP)
Spend your summer enhancing your literacy

There's no way he actually had the gall to say that.
This is a made up quote.

>>149049303
Good morning Saar!

>>149049184 (OP)
>is he stupid
Have you seen his movies? Have you seen the trailer for the new Superman? Webm related is real, it's the final product, he hired the same guy from The Flash to do the photography and CGI.

Yes, he is very stupid.

This thread's gonna stink like curry soon

>>149049184 (OP)
Because all American movie studios are functionally Babylon propaganda firms, so he's been paid to propagandize in favor of the next phase of the Agenda.

>>149049184 (OP)
People really are misunderstanding what Gunn meant to say here, huh.
Specially when Gunn has said that he's anti-AI before.

>>149049184 (OP)
Regardless of your stance on AI this analogy is completely retarded outside of the most surface of surface levels

>Another attempt at Snyder cucks to make people hate the new superman movie
Give it a rest will you

>>149049395
I'm sure thats all he had to work with at DC, and he uses insane camera angles to hide DCs legendarily shitty DC. I'm super (no pun intended) annoyed by this, but honestly, I buy bad CGI in an over the top live action cartoon more than in shit like Wonder Woman.

I can't find a source for this quote so its about 50/50 being a Snyder cult hoax

>>149049451
I understood what he said but still it's a dumb comparison, specially when most of his audience is even dumber. The problem with Gunn is that he is terminally online but he's a shitposter so you get these dumb insights that only do damage, like the other day when he tried to defend Matt Reeves by calling him slow.

>>149049522
yeah he's a fucking idiot for that comparison

congrats snyderfags, I'm with you now on not watching this movie

You faggots obsess over what people say online too much. Superman's fucking cool and an All-American alien who'd lobotomize you autistic incels if he got the chance

>Jeets reading this statement knowing they must now support Gunn for supporting AI as the part of them that loves Snyder conflicts with the part of them that loves AI

>>149049184 (OP)
why do ai fags inject ai into every conversation ?

>>149049184 (OP)
>>149049522
What a random thing to bring up, is the movie that bad he need to change the topic ?

>>149049184 (OP)
You’re just bitching about genuine empathy probably because it goes against your self-interest, like wanting AI to be seen as just evil instead of capable of great good, like Superman, wielding power that is also capable of evil.

>>149049395
Cool cutscene. What video game?

>>149049845
Superman 2025

>>149049451
everyone understands, but Lex is the villain

>>149049812
ok, but what does that have to do with a superman movie, it is like order a pizza and being told the history of ninjas

>>149049303
Hi Sandeep

>>149049184 (OP)
No he's apt in this comparison. Asshole twitter artists with fragile egos will claim they hate AI because it looks like shit but it's really because they hate have competition from a machine that does what they do effortlessly. It's the perfect comparison.

>>149049184 (OP)
no one cares what a pedophile like gunn thinks. enjoy adrenochrome withdrawal as pissreal burns.

>>149049812
Yes the metaphor is solid. The only people that hate it are artfags or retards that don't get it even when its spelled out for them.

>>149049184 (OP)
>Gunn describes how a supervillain thinks of the hero
>this becomes "Gunn thinks the hero is like this" in your head
>throw a tantrum on 4chan the second someone uses the phrase "media literacy"

>>149050180
>>149050083
It's stupid not because he said anything wrong but because people were obviously going to react badly to the statement

>>149050193
They just posted pages of lex luthor affirming his dislike for the alien.

>>149049184 (OP)
Superman makes furry porn now? I gotta admit that’s a pretty bold take on the character

>>149049956
That’s your problem, you see superhero movies as something to consume rather than something that has meaning beyond a franchise entry.

>>149049350
>>149049977
GMS

I get what he's saying but what a dumb loaded analogy that's also kind of simplistic of the issue he's using as an analogy.

>>149049949
everyone understands, but villains can have relatable grudges
Superman is AI to Lex. People are just mad he said something that sounds critical of le Supeymans

>>149050238
all that tells me is it going to be a terrible movie

>>149049184 (OP)
For once he's based

Still never forgiving him for killing the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise

>>149049184 (OP)
>Gunn compares Superman to AI
That's funny, because the fight scenes in his movie are 100% AI generated.

>>149049184 (OP)
>>Gunn compares Superman to AI art
and he is not wrong

>>149050551
over hyped,not real a boring ?

>>149049184 (OP)
He's not directly comparing Superman to AI, but Lex's perception of Superman. Lex DOES think Clark doesn't deserve the praise he receives and Lex DOES fear being replaced. It's a humanizing approach to Lex and honestly the kind of thing he would say to try and get people on his side.

>>149049184 (OP)
No, he's comparing Lex Luthor's opinion of Superman to artists' opinion of AI, you illiterate faggot.

>>149049931
oh boy, another superman movie where superman just wastes motherfuckers.

>>149049931
holy fuck that bad

>>149049395
why is so fuck hard to make a superman movie ?

>>149049184 (OP)
OP pic reminded me of this

>>149049931
>more Matrix slomo
Sick of this garbage in every capeshit movie

>>149050814
Christopher Reeve was so great that it cursed every other Superman movie afterwards to be complete shit

>>149050814
good morning

>>149050976
But Guardians is pretty much Superman but powerless, without the kill rule. The writing was pretty great there, when it mattered. I don't care what anyone says. You move. I'll keep saying 2+2=4.

>>149049931
>spin around and shoot the gun to kill all the baddies stood around doing nothing
I'm tired of anime.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyHEvDusigI
why does feel like no one gave a shit from the actors, cgi and director, it feel like a made for tv movie.

>>149050814
The core fundamental concept of Superman as a serious character is incompatible with Wall Street owned corporate Hollywood. So you either get pajeet-pandering special effects blockbusters where Superman is just a random assortment of powers to make blockbuster set-pieces, or woman-pandering soap opera dramas that are usually TV shows instead.

>>149051081
What the fuck is someone supposed to do hovering a hundred feet in the air with lightspeed lasers blasting millions of degrees at them instantly?

>>149051168
Remember they're capable of flying in three-dimensions and go either up or down to get a better shot at the entire crowd?

>>149051194
You clearly speak broken English. Can you please reword this in a way that directly gets across what you meant to say?

>>149051168
Regret applying for the role of a henchman in an anime?
What? You want a sincere response when you even wrote out that Superman's eyesight should be igniting the atmosphere?

>>149051210
Why are you arguing with yourself, Patel?

>>149051222
What are you talking about?

>>149051208
Nice try jagmeet, you don't get to project your illiteracy onto others.

>>149051229
Are you fucking with me right now? When did you start learning English?

>>149051230
No I know those fake deep instagram infograph quotes with black & white lion backgrounds when I see them, and they always make no fucking sense because they're so poorly and loosely worded. You can't just "No u" and expect me to fold like that

>>149051230
>>149051252
Seriously. See: >>149051210
Don't tell me that wasn't typed by brown hands that got a little too confident in the "I am an eagle Joker badass Batman" South Indian mental space

If you actually want to blame everything on indians, why would you believe it's just one and not a room of them?

>>149051265
Lazy and trite stock response. Sorry. Two plus two equals four.

>>149051276
Who said I thought it was only one? I was just talking to my girlfriend about how I see hundreds on the site now. My bad for calling you Patel if you're not Indian, anon, but maybe take it as a lesson that you need to expand your vocabulary, or learn to be concise and direct.

I'll enjoy this and FF flopping so much.

>>149051300
This is the only site besides Facebook and Xhitter (discounting clickbait grifter YouTube channels) that have any real or consistent criticism for this movie. People mostly seem like they either have no opinion or vaguely wanna see it from what I see in the big picture

>>149051300
>>149051319
By the big picture I mean from what I hear from people in person. The internet is a facsimile and will never represent culture

>>149051298
Just post your hand holding your girlfriend's hand so we can both move past this.

>>149051330
Sure, lmao.

>>149049956
>it is like order a pizza and being told the history of ninjas
That would be based, unfortunately Guy is not based.

>>149050946
It reads a lot like Gunn made a fairly common and statement about Lex's imposter complex driving Lex but altered the text just enough to be talking about AI instead of say, Superman's ability to fly and block bullets with his chin, and then edited the screenshot to look legit. For some goddamned reason.

>>149050976
Chris himself specifically cursed it. If only that horse hadn’t crippled him…

>>149050305
what the fuck is that from?

>>149052032
Dark Knight The Golden Child
Darkseid and Joker’s clown maga try to get Trump elected, so Batgirl rallies a diverse Batantifa of women and gays to beat them up and teach america they don’t have to live in fear of racists and chuds.

>>149049184 (OP)
>fags say AI is bad
Many such cases, AI will replace you fools if you don't accept it.

>>149049184 (OP)
You AI art users better go watch the movie now, Gunn is your man and if it flops it's on you for not backing him up.

>>149050814
Richard Donner nailed it back in 1978. Everything you could tell about Superman is in that movie, that's why every director after him tries to deconstruct the character with poor results
>>149051031
They aren't. The Guardians (at least Gunns version) were a bunch of losers and misfits that became heroes by chance, because thats the type of heroes Gunn likes to make. Guardians/Suicide Squad/Super/Peacemaker, etc, were like that.

>>149052182
Ah yes, you know something is inevitable when folks have to constantly scream about how it's inevitable.

>>149052140
Everything Marvel does, DC does but worse.

>>149049303
>Artists are the jealous pricks
But you’re seething that you can’t draw?

>>149049184 (OP)
To be fair, it's a perfect analogy and shows that he understands the character.

>>149052424
>no u

>>149050976
true

>>149049184 (OP)
I guess Gunn is a bigger retard than I thought. I can't fucking wait for the death of superhero movies. However long that takes

anti-AI fags are the worst there is.

>>149049601
Let the poop wars begin saars

>>149052140
Soooooo. How did she react when Trump won?

>>149049184 (OP)
Why is it everyone seems to collectively refuse to understand the concept of
>Hey I don't want some corporation using AI to make a 85%-90% copy of my work and use it for free instead of paying me for my art they are fucking using?

Somehow we lost this idea and got to work screeching horse and buggy at people for a couple years instead.

>>149049184 (OP)
I bet if I used AI to make a movie that looks an awful lot like his and started charging money for it....Gunn would not be pleased and all of a sudden not be such a fan of AI any longer.

>>149052739
Cope art troon. No one fucking cares.

>>149049190
fpbp

>>149052739
anon you are trying to get sympathy from people who expect their art to be free and pirate all of it. Don't bother, they would have this attitude even if image generation never existed

>>149052644
I think they are here to stay. They will wane but unlike westerns which needed to be set in a specific time period cape media is a lot more flexible. I mean joker is a cape movie, they can be as strict/loose as they want with the medium.

>>149052739
Random everyday posters on Linkedin might just be the most obnoxious AI bros I have seen. That is the worst place for congregating AI bros bragging about how they can easily whip up Ghibli movies in 10 minutes and how cool they are for doing it.

>>149052617
Perfect summation of your seethe rakesh

>>149049184 (OP)
So Lex is the good guy then? No, this metaphor doesn't work at all because Superman powers are not available to the masses actually.

>>149049184 (OP)
love how his spiel ends up slandering artists and comes off as pro-AI. what a retard.

>>149052898
DO NOT REDEEM MA'AM

>>149052948
They are once you make them opensource.
Lex has had several stories of making Superman's powers available to everyone. Like 52. or his Pre Crisis Good Future.

>>149052913
>no u again
lmao

>>149052789
>having free art is bad

>>149049184 (OP)
I mean, there's more to it like how he thinks Superman existing makes people think they don't have to try, but overall that's a pretty spot on explanation of Luther's animosity towards Supergod

>Lex looks at Superman like artists look at AI
But he doesn't? He has a good reason to hate him
I mean you could argue he acted too rash and that Lex was maybe a bit twisted in his perception, but from his pov Super ruined his lab
>and caused his hair to fall out
>in a universe in which Lex still has his hair, he and Superman are BFFs

>>149053197
That's no longer canon, now he hates him out of pure envy.

>>149053166
yeah

>>149049184 (OP)
>Everybody talking about the retarded virtue signaling AI metaphor
>Nobody talking about how Gunn thinks Lex hates Superman because he’s handsome

>>149053265
You didn't understand this post at all, he's explaining this>>149050946 to the normalfags

>>149053290
yeah but he also mentioned he's handsome outta nowhere lol. Lex has a crush on him

>>149053290
>you didn’t understand him, he meant something completely different from what he said!
Retard.

>>149053310
>the idiot doesn't know what a metaphor is.
>>149053300
Yes, Lex's hatred was always quite gay.

>>149049184 (OP)
That's such a terrible way to put it, too.

>>149049184 (OP)
I mean, I guess it's pretty good for SEO reasons, since pro and anti AI guys are constantly searching for that stuff.
Soulless to try to leverage that for clicks though. (It worked on OP, who is a fag.)

Also interesting:
>Lex = real artists struggling and suffering for their art
>Supes = AI that surpasses all the artists with no time/effort needed
I can't tell if he's an AI fan or not here.

It IS true though, AI objectively produces better quality and more soulful art than the bottom half of all artists, and that's a truth that a lot of artists need to learn from.
A TON of artists really just coast along and don't put in any effort to learning new shit or experimenting, the bottom 2/3rds of all artists just think "quantity = success" or "effort = rewards".
They'll pick some generic popular style, ape it, then grind it to dust, get some Patreon money, then start kicking and screaming about how [politician] is stopping them from making a living or that AI is the singular reason why they're not rich yet despite working on their art 12 hours a day.
Years pass and their art doesn't get any better, maybe more "polished", but not better. Artists falling into the same generic poses, the same expressions, no experimentation, no thought behind those eyes, just as generic as any no-effort AI output, and they'll do it year after year until they crash out in a blaze of glory, or they leave an ambiguous "goodbye" post somewhere and quit.
Man, I still have memories of one artist spending literally no joke about 16 hours a day, every day, for at least a year (two?) just yelling at AI Discord servers, chimping out because he's not rich yet and another artist thought his art looked like AI once (this was back when AI couldn't do hands at all, and he couldn't draw hands either.) Nigga just wouldn't stop, he even got banned from a fuckload of art servers for being a little autist.

>>149052739
If a corporation wanted to make an "85%-90% copy" of your work, they would just do it with or without AI. There's nothing stopping them from having one of their artists draw in your style.

All the art you have ever made is based entirely on data you have collected from things you've seen in life, and that includes other art. What the AI does is really no different than you, it's just faster (not going to claim its better, because its not yet).
It's awfully hypocritical to get mad at it for doing what you do. I don't get mad that people and AIs exist that are better than me at my field. A greater level of competence existing is a good thing, actually.

>>149053513
He's obviously trying to defend Lex here.

>>149049303
>i hate art while posting on a board that is 100 percent dedicated to art
you don't have opinions worth hearing regarding illustration or animation
