None, feels MCU doesn't really have the same balls as the comics did regarding the sociopolitical themes regarding race and a black Cap. Still mad at the terrible mixed messages in the TV show.

That said, if they can make it a more grounded thriller like Cap 2 they got a chance to make an aaight movie. Less CGI generated worlds the better.

Maybe by grounded they were referring to the part where he stops a helicopter taking off with his bare hands.

It's this new (about 15 years or so) lifestyle espoused by "lifestyle vloggers" with millions of followers on YouTube and other social media. "Digital Nomad" lifestyle in "cheaper" global locations such as Central and South Americas (Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Columbia, Chile, Mexico), and South Asia (Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia). Essentially people who can remote work, get paid in USD, living a luxury lifestyle in a cheap manner which really harms the native population by driving up costs of living.

Basically, live an "eco friendly and sustainable" lifestyle (not really) by actually recreating your local scene in another part of the world without a single care for who you are affecting.

This is literally what Hitler said about the jews

MIND YOU, Captain America 2 has been regularly described as a political thriller a la The Parallax View and The Manchurian Candidate. Respect the MCU's wide ranging genre efforts, CHUDS!  :steiner

I think way too much hyperbole gets thrown around about the MCU (and most things online for that matter) that I tend to filter a lot of it out. I do think there are genuine arguments about the direction of Phase 4 and onwards, which I haven't really loved, and caused the MCU to lose some of its lustre in my eyes. But a lot of that could come down to personal taste, and I appreciate it is still as strong as ever to some fans here. That said, its really shitty to harass other posters this.

It's definitely hyperbole, I have no doubts that Cap 4, Deadpool 3, Fantastic 4, Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars are gonna be huge.

MCU talk outside of this thread was already a shit show, but now that one of the movies has legitimately under-performed, it's somehow become 10x worse.

Captain Marvel 2 discussion will be fucking torture, especially if the RT and box office ain't so hot.

why do MCU shills have the same hallmarks as right wing crazies? Intense projection, aggression against differing opinion, easily triggered, unwilling to have a conversation without painting the opposition as a degenerate etc.  :dunno

Constructive thread tries to understand why the cheetara thread was locked for "boysclub behavior" but why the RE Crush thread is open

Quote
That kind of thing is definitely down to staff discretion but generally boys club = a bunch of men horny posting.

The RE thread was posted by a woman with other women posting too, and unlike the Cheetara thread didn’t have anyone like… outright posting a ton of suggestive art or joking about masturbating (and getting banned under this rule as a result), so I imagine that’s why it’s currently fine in comparison? At a glance I guess some of the posts I saw felt like they were starting to cross the line a little, but not to that degree.

They're really going with "it was posted by a woman" which is so funny considering how mad they usually get whenever someone points out that some "horrible" character design was created by a woman and start talking about internalized sexism and shit.

I don't understand why they're so salty

like they can't even articulate what makes them mad

someone makes something cool and it's just...oh but you feel nothing but contempt for us for all the time we used to spend hand-crafting this?

what happened to making things more accessible to others? this is the common era sentiment:



isn't it nice that more people have an easier time expressing themselves?

and then there's talk about them stealing others' work...is that the unity scene that they paid for? or literally just training an AI model with pics from an anime? whatever happened to sharing what we have with each other under socialist utopia?

and then there's the sour grapes of "looks like shit anyway" as if this won't improve massively in the coming years

A black non-binary occasionally trans male is fearing for her livelihood, and you're laughing. This is why I'm literally fucking scared to post on this forum. I'm so tired.

Look, I struggle with OCD enough to have you call me unhealthy for... fixating on things that catch my attention, make me happy, disgust me or scare me and keep them floating in my brain forever like I tend to do.

I know that wasn't your intention and you had no way of knowing but calling people unhealthy over Marvel films and the discussion around them is just not going to make the thread enjoyable for anyone.

I'm sure there's A LOT of people on the internet that will tell you that Multiverse of Madness wasn't a sexist piece of trash regarding Wanda that many excused because Sam Raimi is in the credits or that Quantumania is some misunderstood masterpiece that the critics wanted to make fail.

I'm not one of them. I simply don't believe these offerings are all unredeemable with no value as a story or that the whole franchise is sinking simply because the decision was made to NOT go straight to the other group of famous white guys o because its going through clear production issues due to COVID and too many projects at once. And I also believe that Phases 1-3 are getting romanticized as something they really weren't.

(In a sense I'm feeling Phases 1-3 are becoming like The Original trilogy of Star Wars and LORD HAVE MERCY if that's where MCU discussions are headed)

Thank you for the kind words and reassurances in the OP. The MCU is my entire life and I’ve had to endure so much torture and torment over Ant Man 3 almost half what I dole for every DC movie. After this I finally understand how people survive tragedy. I am united with those survivors. The 2008 subprime mortgage lending bust, the American Civil War, UK KFC chicken shortage, we are kin now. An MCU movie doing poorly is literally the worst thing that could possibly happen to me and I could at least pretend that Eternals was successful. These movies are the best thing to ever happen to me. I love you three thousand Kevin.

because of course the only criticism he could come up with was that one of the movies was "sexist" :lol

Instead of talking about it ruining art they talk about




Instead of being pussy-shit MAGA coal miners why don't you learn new skills!  Nobody is stopping your from making art.  You can do that and have a job with the new skills and relocation required that you say coal minders need to do.

Laying in the bed fighting pain in my back, cause somehow when i was warming food for lunch I suffered a game ending injury. I was just standing there doing one of those weird little dances we do when we are alone waiting for my mcnuggets to warm to a temp where it isn't sad that i am eating them.

Suddenly my back tweaked and I got a sharp pain that made me cross my eyes.  I wasn't even doing anything, is this what it is like all the time for you [USER=143]B-Dubs[/USER]  ? This shit isn't right, i trying to work up the strenght to find the heating pad

This AI thread is full of gold

Quote from: crienne
"I didn't want to put the effort into learning X so I totally back AI making X more accessible to others!"
Nah, fuck off.

I have ADHD and am autistic. I've given up on more hobbies than I care to count because of my own brain chemistry being a shit head. Not once have I ever looked at one of those hobbies and gone, "Oh hey, AI makes this easier for me to make stuff in that hobby? Awesome!"

Yes I've tried AI art generation and whatnot, and sure I've gotten moderately "successful" images out of it, but the boredom of typing shit out, waiting for it to generate, tweaking the prompt, waiting again...it really fucking made the whole thing not worth it.

I'd rather research a hobby, spend too much money getting into it (by overbuying supplies, usually), try it, not be amazing at it right away (cause brain says I should be, duh), and then quit said hobby than let a machine spit something out at me that's "good enough".

Art especially is one of those hobbies I've given up on many, many, MANY times. I always come back to it though, in one medium or another, and as I've gotten older I've realized that what I enjoy about art isn't the end result but the process of getting there. It's one of the reasons why I've got so many unfinished pieces in my past. AI takes away that process and focuses almost exclusively on the end result. That's one of the many reasons AI sucks for creatives.

This isn’t the rebuttal you think it’s is.

You are talking about this like it didn’t generate a ton of injustices and abuse. Obviously not saying that technology is evil ( :lol ) but technology by default isn’t either bad or good by default. May as well be useless, but people will still bitch about the weather and getting old.

AI is awesome to experiment. Usually it takes weeks to try out different styles now you can do it in seconds.

Now you can just say: "Anime Autisty" "Realistic Autistiy" "8-bit autisty"
and ding ding bleep bloop, you get results.

I honestly don't think these transformer-based language models are going to be anywhere near as disruptive as people think they will be. There are some hard limits and very tough problems ahead for AI.

This guy is super successful. Made millions of dollars.

Yet he still somehow the victim in his own mind. Now, when Black entertainers and celebrities complain I hear that they should shut up because they’re rich…


….where is that same energy?

I dunno, because Scott Adams (a stupid racist cartoonist)  just got cancelled and black celebrities need to say something incredible dumb like Kanye for over the years to get cancelled.

Maybe stupid racist cartoonists and dumb black celebrities deserve to be called out? How is your own victim complex Mammoth Jones?

I think is pretty obvious this is honeymoon period where a lot of investors are rallying for it as the new hot thing, while normies get excited about it (I can make my own porn) or panic (they don’t need to buy my porn).

Technically yes.

Technically I have also been paid for sex.

Isn't this that one freak mod with an OnlyFans? I thought Ree was vehemently against prostitution and thought sex work had a power imbalance no matter who is participating in it?

Royalan, who I'm sure is a frequent on rentmen.com, is also four posts deep into that thread and advocating for it.

I like how Nepenthe and every one else cycles between, "this is the death of art.  I gain spiritual enlightenment animating keyframes," and then switching to, "this is he end of my profession forever and demise of my job," when it suits who they argue with.

Is it about the art or your wallet you absolutist, binary thinkers?

Quote from: pizoxuat
This is my art. I might make a side hustle out of selling some shawls and towels I make in my off hours, but I won't be able to make it my primary occupation. There's both good and neutral reasons for that... I do wonder how the mental health epidemic might be helped if we had more opportunities to make a living from handiwork, to be soothed by the rhythm of creating something from raw materials, but that is neither here nor there.

I understand putting in years to learn your art. I've been doing fiber arts for half my life. I understand the joy of watching it grow and evolve, of learning new styles and techniques.

I don't want to see animation and visual art relegated to the dustbin of the occasional hobby shop or enthusiast's store like my form of art is. I want to see them grow and thrive. I want more animators and more visual artists to have careers making more wonderful art to enrich our lives and inspire us. AI generation isn't the pathway to that. If it was, wouldn't the steam mills and punch cards have made generations more fiber artists take up needle and heddle because of the booming desire for handmade alongside machinemade? It didn't.

I support our artists.
