I never ask for specific actors. Sometimes CoPilot volunteers real actors, especially if I give it a date or date range, but mostly it makes up fake names.

I asked copilot what's up with that. In a nutshell, they are NOT allowed to recreate images of real persons for movie posters, but it is ok to use real actor names. Apparently, sometimes copilot slips up and fails to enforce their own rules and generate real actors in the poster.

The first Bowie album I bought and one of the first albums I ever bought (on cassette tape). Probably haven't listened to it straight through in nearly 30 years. I know it's not Bowie's greatest achievement but there are some solid tunes here.

^ it's pretty cool. Has copilot ever gave you trouble when adding real life actor names? ChatGPT is kind of random about it, sometimes it will, sometimes it won't. It did add Cyndi Lauper to the cast once, even though I didn't put in real names.

Sorry Trevor, Copilot refused to make the South African exploitation comedy "How Long Must I Suffer Through Your Undergarments?" for me. Said "that title tripped the safety filters — it contains wording that can't be used for image generation. I can't create a poster for it."

I thought this one turned out great, though:

RIFFTRAX: KINGDOM OF THE SPIDERS: Rural Arizona veterinarian William Shatner and big city toxicologist Tiffany Bolling deal (badly) with a plague of aggressive spiders whose venom has been mutated by DDT, or something vague like that. Dull drive-in dreck of the type that definitely benefits from having jokes inserted. 3/5.

I do not need that many tanks. They'd never get used in a game.

Now that is just crazy talk. Next thing you'll be saying one can have too many Landsknechts.

Have you considered substituting a King Tiger with a M-47 with a Robert Shaw figure in the hatch?
