Finished reading all of Muñeco series by Sarae (including the side stories) and oh my oh my, would you blame me if I cry and try to find a sooting fanfic to let the pain go away (pls give me recommendation of toll fanfic please please please)
Now my ratings of every part
WARNING: spoilers below
They look so domestic here, what the fuck!!!!
Finished reading part 3 of Muñeco by Sarae and oh my gosh. That was a frickin rollercoaster.
What a masterpiece, thank you Sarae.
This two are the most silly shot in the entire RRR, I know it's a serious situation but I can't help but laugh everytime I came to this part
Seriously WHY did the car flip 360° several times after the one (1) bullet hit a back wheel? Why does Scott remain suspended in the air as everything else moves around him and the gun appears out of nowhere and he is STILL suspended in the air as everything STILL moves around him and he takes the perfect gunshot?? Is Scott an airbender??? WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?????
as both ram and bheem seem to have similar physics defying moments i can only conclude that in the rrr universe homosexuality leads to some latent physic bending abilities. i thus have to conclude that scott either is a very repressed homosexual or in good old coloniser fashion he has learned to colonise homoeroticism for his own means
This the funniest thing I've seen all week 😂🤣
The bookish vampire couple
to use ai in literally anything related to iwtv which is such an iconically creative show and rightfully prides itself on that is so disheartening. it clearly wasn’t needed for the first two seasons and it isn’t needed now or ever because it’s never needed in any form of art and i stand by that. amc sleep with two eyes open…..
Louis de pointe du lac loves arson so much that his response to his own house getting burned down was to move in with the guy who did it. All y'all other arson fans are posers he's the only real arson enthusiast
Very quick sketch of BOOK Louis. I have been listening to IWTV the book and so I was slightly curious about his visual difference to the show ver. His monologues make him sound like a man who wouldn’t often smile in the presence of lestat so I imagine he’s quite grim most of the time.
i saw the discussions about usage of ai-generated visuals in the new opening titles, so i thought i would offer my two cents.
disclaimer: i have some experience in spotting ai-generated images, and VERY limited knowledge of video editing and compositing from my work, so please feel free to correct me on any mistakes i make.

Ummmm... that's still AI though and you're defending it despite claiming not to.
i don't know what you've read and who you assume i am for you to say that i benefit from ai advancement. i always try to be vague when talking abt myself as much as i can because i get self-conscious, but here's the entire context of what i do and what i believe in:
i live in a third world country and the majority of the work i've done within the creative industry is outsourced work for brands and clients in the first world. the tasks that i do would be considered menial by most artists living in the imperial core. and it is exactly this sector in the creative industry that is being hit the hardest with the advancement of ai: the more commercial the work is, the more incentive higher-ups have for cutting corners and reducing labor. if the work you do is considered "menial", whether that is true or not, then it is easier to remove you from the production pipeline. there have been multiple layoffs where i work, a lot of my friends and colleagues are struggling to work, and those who managed to hang on like myself are feeling increasingly frustrated as our work grows less and less meaningful.
this isn't mean to complain abt my life, but to give context to where i came from and my personal relationship with generative ai technology. what frustrates me the most about conversations of organizing and dismantling ai within the creative industry is the lack of understanding of how art is made, because this in turn obfuscate the value of the labor we as artists put in. when conversations abt dismantling ai are only about vibes and emotions, and not grounded by material conditions and a deep understanding of those conditions, nothing can be meaningfully achieved. which is why i said that i'm happy that people are cognizant about ai usage and pushing back against it, but i hope that that pushback also comes with curiosity for how the art and media they enjoy are made. because if ppl understand how it's made, then they'd understand the labour value stolen when using this technology. this post is not about defending ai, i've said in the post and tags that i think ai is bad; this post is me trying to break the process of making art down so that it's more approachable to people.
at the same time, i don't think this air of paranoia can further the conversation of dismantling ai in any meaningful way, which is something i was trying to expel. yes, i do want people to be more aware of generative ai and its application and push back against it. no, i don't want people to just accuse things of being ai based solely on emotions and vibes. "this is clearly ai lol and if you don't think so then you're too stupid or you support ai" ok but what makes it clearly ai? what are the technical tells that people can use to detect them? that's what i was trying to do with this post, to make the process of pointing out signs of gen ai grounded in something more than just "this is clearly ai".
perhaps i was too lenient in my judgment of how much ai was used in those opening titles, and i do apologize that i'm not as up-to-date abt the technology as i should have. still, i still came to the conclusion that there are ai involvement in those opening titles and that amc should be pressured into disclosing it, so i don't get how that is in any way "defending" ai.
Maybe I seem too judgmental as well on my short wording so that's on me as well. I do apologise for my shortcomings of not being an expert.
Sorry for the misleading word there, English is not my first language. I was stating that your advocate to the people who use AI will be benefit "by the AI", not that you "benefit from AI".
It's mainly that there is too much leniency going on over AI production. It's not a case of using AI fully or partly, the problem is that they feel the need of using at all, something that have been crushing the human art and life for so long. And this goes for anyone else too. This is the way of benefitting AI, by using it bit by bit.
I don't know which part of my wording is calling you stupid and what tempt you to said it but I've never meant it that way. Apologies for that though.
And I never said you support it too, I'm just clearing that if you continue to be lenient on the people who helps in the advancement of AI, then you're partly contributing without knowing it, means that you don't have to support AI to help it's advancement. And reading your post, I think I have no more to say about what make that intro scene an AI production as I have believe that using AI partly is also still using it.

yknow like. not for anything.
amc using so much ai also feels like. such a niche way to slap anne rice in the face as this author who got (and still gets) so much shit for not wanting to be edited. like, her philosophy that her books came straight from HER the way paintings come straight from a painter, warts and all, and the team adapting her work can't even be bothered to make their own bad art. whether it's because they're cheap or because they're creative cowards (or both) idk but it's just another thing that's so antithetical to these books and the author and it's so obnoxious!!!!!!
All y'all hunting down Emerald Fennell for her "Wuthering Heights!".
Please hunt down this bizzare named Rolin Jones for me too!!!!!!!

If you really think about it, The Vampire Chronicles is Single's Inferno.
do you ever stay up late thinking about Justine de Pointe du Lac (Louis de Pointe du Lac's sister, as named by Anne in her original screenplay drafts)
do you think about how she was there in the room, on the night Lestat came to Louis on his deathbed, how she was likely the only one who cared for Louis after the death of Paul, who didn't outright blame him for Paul's death?
do you think about how she and Louis became so much closer after he was turned, about how he gave her everything she could ever want and spent hours talking with her and listening to her deepest dreams and fears and all of the thoughts she could never share with anyone else?
do you ever think about what his response must have been, upon receiving the news that she was with child? was he terrified? was he happy? was he distraught at the thought of his bloodline continuing? did he worry that the baby would look like Paul, would suffer the way Paul did in a cruel and unjust world?
Or worse, did he fret over the idea of the baby turning out like him, and living a life of cowardice and misery?
Did he stay up late into the morning praying to an uncaring God for his sister, that she would survive the birth and not succumb to the Pointe du Lac curse that has plagued his family? Did he ever feel the weight of the irony, watching his sister grow a human life inside of her while he himself is dead? Did he prepare a grave for her before the birth, just in case? Did he visit his brother in the mausoleum and vent his sorrows to him, just as he had done in life?
And do you ever wonder what became of the Pointe du Lac family, once Louis "died" in that tragic plantation fire? Do you ever wonder if Louis thought of his sister in those moments when he first realized he was going to have to raise a child of his own?
ANYWAY. @wicked-felina was also thinking about these things and we both made each other crazy sad about it so I needed to put it here so that we can all be sad together LMAO
