“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” she added. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to fucking want to see those.”

Fine art only people are so goddamn exhausting.

I love art but sometimes art is bullshit I can watch once and that’s ok. Other times art is shit like avatar that I’ll watch over and over as comfort tv for life because it’s good enough to be worth it. And then other times I’ll gladly spend 4 hours watching the first 2 hours of a 3 hour video on twilight because it’s very artistically dense and my wife and I need to keep discussing the bits of it. Not everything I watch can be the latter, some of the stuff will need to be the former.

Wait a sec. Obviously you're not talking about Avatar... but are you talking about Avatar, Avatar, or Avatar?

Nah Aang and Korra

Natalie has hit it out of the park with her last several videos. Always worth the wait.
