The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

Fun Fact: One of the reasons Square was pushed to improve its localization practices in the 2000s is because Alexander O. Smith showed them reviews proving that people *cared* about translation quality. (Link to the full interview: web.archive.org/web/20091113...)

Oh here’s one that I think is way undersung: finding a political moral in a movie doesn’t mean you’ve solved the movie and got an A+ and can now stop thinking about it. The same story can have all sorts of morals, even contradictory ones. Shifting perspective is the entire point of fiction.
I'll do one! A thing that signals film illiteracy: knowing just enough about movies to basic rhen patterns, then assuming a film is bad because ~you~ can spot the seams, they'll always be there if you look for them, and most people don't. You figuring out where they're headed doesn't mean anything.
If there's one thing that signals film illiteracy from someone online, it's when they deride humor used in another genre as being "a Marvel-like quip."
Go watch DIE HARD. "No shit, lady! Do you think I'm ordering a pizza?!" is the exact same kind of line that now gets called "quippy"

Youre not a smart clever boy because you guessed what a film is about to do. The world doesnt need another Person-Who-Dings-Movies but sitting on the couch with them.
You can guess everything about a film or show and it can still be entertaining. You are not your favorite YouTube critic.

I wonder how much Netflix paid @forbes.com for this piece. There wasn’t any flop and the projection really wasn’t short in a statistically significant way. Weird way to spin a nothing piece into deriding the theatergoing experience.
A few notable flops this year held the box office back from its predicted rebound.

actual quote from a language company executive: “Why should we pay for higher quality translations when people will happily pay us for poorer quality translations?”
"ai is going to take your job" was just the capitalists admitting they can give us trash and we have to take it
huh so Google is kicking off the new year by pissing off knitters that’s fun

Some have contacted the FCC over Crunchyroll, but many haven't referenced shows that previously aired on TV, & they won't act unless the show was televised. However, we've found at least with Mobile Suit Gundam & Iron Blooded Orphnans that HAVE aired on TV. Start with those 2 shows as reference.
I believe a strong case could be made that CR's egregiously sloppy captions on so many shows violate FCC regulation 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(j)(2), (3), and (k), per the CVAA act of 2010, which applies to streaming.
It may be time for people to start bombarding the FCC Consumer Complaint Form.

Animation is one of the most successful forms of entertainment. Look at the top films in box office & streaming. When it comes to series they need more than 1 season to find their groove. Studios used to order 3 and eventually created massive hits. Now they order one season, wait, then cancel them.
