*Insert far, far, far too long headline here (or, rather, try and fail to do so)*

Full headline, because barely even half of that shit fit in Dreamwidth's subject field: "'Pulp Fiction' Writer Says It Was 'Impossible' to Get His Movies Made Until He Started an AI Production Company: 'Just Put AI in Front of It and All of a Sudden You're in Production on Three Features'"

*weary goddamn motherfucking sigh + facepalm + smdh*

So, note to self (and hopefully note to anyone else reading this): avoid any new movies that involve Roger Avary in any way from now on, I guess. (Besides, even ignoring the AI dumbshit, anyone in 2026 CE who willingly appears as a guest on "The Joe Rogan Experience" deserves to be shunned, just for that alone.)

Of course, given that the three so-called """""features""""" in question here are "'a family Christmas movie that'll be in theaters this holiday season,' a 'faith-based movie for next Easter' and a 'big romantic war epic,'" I think I would've been quite safe from ever seeing any of these, even if I hadn't known they were made with AI.

What's more insidious, of course, are all the other """""movies""""" that are most assuredly being made like this, except by slightly smarter scumbags who don't proudly boast about doing it beforehand.

The only "Vapechievement" that would be of any actual value would something like a "It's been X number of days/months/years/decades and you still haven't used your vape even once!" achievement.

Of course, cigarette companies have had "rewards/loyalty programs" for almost a century now, so this isn't really a new thing.
