>>213347685
I'm going to lmao irl if they actually did that

>>213347566
it looks about as eyebleedingly saturated as the rest of the wizard of oz looks. that's just a bad frame.

Isn't it supposed to make it feel like you're in Oz? Obviously shit had to be made up for the format. The backgrounds were never realistic anyway like most early color shit like the fake ass backgrounds in Gilligan's Island.

It's the AI Hitler effect
Ai is really bad at drawling large scale areas because it's learned from paintings and drawings
Guess what the most viewed in history online
Hitlers.
Hitler couldnt draw scale or perspective. He'd have doors 30 foot tall at angles just crazy shit. Hitler was unironcally Forrest Gump intelligent.

So ai copies alot of his work and you get weird perspective shit, random extra fingers, sizes it's hilarious.

>>213349645
Hitler wasn’t stupid he was just incredibly lazy

I saw a thing like this in-person. It was a Van Gough exhibit with a promised 25-minute "experience", which turned out to be a room with 360 degrees of projections on the wall -- all of Van Gough's art, half-assedly stitched together and poorly animated. Renting chairs for it cost $10 extra and floor cushions cost $5. I'm not fucking kidding. So many people we just sitting on the floor watching a total farce blaring with classical music that wasn't even from the same fucking period Gough lived.

At times I sympathize with the artist and their overprotectiveness. Even if I was long gone I'd never want my work raped like this.

>>213350625
It wouldn't be so jarring if they didn't fuck up the shots so hard. There's no visual transference from one shot to another, it feels like torture. They should've just had one constant layer that's the original film with the backgrounds removed and then work around that

>>213348645
they were going for the effect like you are there with the movie being filmed. not just whats framed infront of the camera
i think its a neat trick. i hope the AI they use will be improved and not look like ai slop eventually.

Why would they just not make a movie for the sphere format?

>>213351760

This is the funniest thread in a long time

dome theaters are a fundamentally different medium than your classic flat movie screen. You need a large background space to fill your periphery vision that can't be filled with important shots that you would be otherwise unable to focus on

>>213348536
Silent Hill 2 was on PS2 you dumb bitch

>>213352421
nigger, you are fucking retarded, he's talking about the background space only starting to be utilized once the movie transitions to color, since it would parallel the original film captivating the audience by "switching on" the color technology. gain some reading comprehension, good Christ some of you people are fucking stupid

Incredibly kitsch, but not completely lacking in artistic interest. I wouldn't watch the movie like this though. At least not following it as you'd follow a regular movie. This kind of thing works better as a video art installation. It's unironically too high brow for the average cinephile.
>>213347599
I know this is a parody, but unironically how can you look at this and not find it fascinating? Imagine watching the whole movie like this. It's hilarious. It obviously wouldn't replace watching the actual movie, since it's a completely different experience, but it's the same as a music remix that changes the mood of the song. It's in a dialogue with the original.

All the things you consider soulful are slop made by cultural industries that exist solely to make money and push social narratives, and once upon a time, less than a century ago, as a matter of fact, people were also critical of them for ruining real art, but since you grew up with them and never knew anything better, for you it's the standard and therefore "soulful". With AI it will be the same. Kids will grow with it and it will be what they see as "soulful", and then in 50 years when something new appears they will be complaining that isn't as "soulful" as the AI art they grew up with. But real art still exists. The cultural industries didn't kill it and AI won't kill it either. If anything, there are already people using AI as a tool in fine art projects and it can be interesting. It will be fine.

I assume it must have been a deliberate decision for the backgrounds to clash so harshly with the original movie, because even with AI, specially with AI, it should have been incredibly easy to just expand the image while keeping the same style. What I'd like to know is if they did this because they thought they were improving the movie, which would be retarded, or if it was meant as an art installation and the people reacting to it are being the retarded ones.

>you'll never be at the sphere

Imagine being the director. You have limitations and work despite them. Not against the limits. With them. You've set the movie up so it's framed a specific way. You make sure everything in the shot can convey only what's necessary to set the stage. And then nearly 100 years later some faggot from another continent where they eat feces decides to rape your legacy.

Like I think its fair to say Shakesphere plays that get made into over budgeted movies have their place in the world. But this? This is garish.

I think The Sphere is pretty dope and guys like the faggot above me are lame

Just about the brutal reality of partisan conflicts. Both sides are shown as barbarian killers with little regard for life, ideology doesn't change anything except which side you allied with (your village will get hit regardless)
