    I’ve wanted to make a live action version of Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke

    This is where you started fucking up. Jesus Christ don’t we have enough evidence at this point that replacing beautifully animated works of art with live action is always a bad proposition? The thing that makes people think that this would be a good idea is not respecting animation, very similar to the thing that makes people think that AI art is good (not respecting art generally).

      I don’t think adaptations are necessarily anti art. There are a myriad of books, films, stage performances, animated shows and animated movies which are adapted from each other which showcase a beautiful story in a variety of forms.

      The issue is doing this shit for a cash grab and not actually trying to create a beautiful adaptation of a story.

      You only need to do this shit when you don’t want to pay a screenwriter or a director to do the designs for an original piece of art. “Oh, everyone liked The Movie: Animated? We can just gut the dialogue, set design, art, framing, story, iconic characters, and soundtrack, then tell people we made it better by using live performers.”

      AI strips it down one more level and just changes how the art is rendered. Damn, the problem with Princess Monenoke was THE GRAPHICS WEREN’T GOOD ENOUGH. It’s not even “live action”. It’s just performance tuning.

      Miyazaki getting the production crew from Homeward Bound and making a live action live animal film maybe could be fucking awesome. Idfk. But This. Ain’t. It.

    burning down the natural world to shittily remake a movie about burning down the natural world galaxy-brain

    What value is there in adapting the animated medium to live action?

    no idea–just making it for fun

    prompters turn gold to shit and then shrug and go “i dunno lol”

    anakin-padme-2 “You chose to do this to Princess Mononoke specifically because of its themes of technology corrupting nature allows your project to be an Iron-ic (sorry can’t resist the pun) way to show the devastating influence of AI ‘art’, right?”

    bazinga “It’s what themes? I just think it looks cool!”

    Y’know I’m an easy going guy generally, but anyone unironically saying “Kling credits” as if that’s a real thing needs to be taken out and [REDACTED]

    I was recommended a Japanese channel that did this with FF6 and it was just awful

    You had airbrushed ai waifu Terra and Celes with doll-like faces just kind of lounging around boobily making porn faces and the Magitek soldiers were just American troops in desert camo
