GIRL INTERNET SHOW: A KATI KELLI MIXTAPE: A collection of Kati Kelli's satirical, surreal, culture-jamming YouTube pieces in which she plays a vapid "mean girl" influencer.  With one exception, the unreleased short film "Total Body removal Surgery," these are already available on her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GirlInternetShow/videos (She also has a series with another character, Marva the MILF, included as bonus content but again available on YouTube). Kelli died in 2019 of, of all things, an asthma attack. She really captured the pathology of social media and its sad she didn't get to expand her canvas beyond YouTube. 3/5.

"Rise of the Superheroes" (2017)

A no-frills documentary that traces the evolution of the superhero genre, from their origins in the cheap, pulpy comic books of the 1930s, into TV shows and animated cartoons, eventually arriving at today's multi-billion dollar blockbuster film franchises. Long time nerds probably won't learn anything new but it's fun to see clips of the 1940s "Batman" movie serial and the 50s "Superman" TV show and revisit the development of the current MCU juggernaut.

Good catch. Yes, CoPilot often includes elements from previous poster generations. It makes for some amusingly surreal additions.

If it bothers you, you'll have to start a new chat each time you want an image generated. That's what copilot told me once.

Doesn't bother me at all. The more errors, the better. The only thing is I'd like them to be more unpredictable.

I'm afraid AI is already getting too good, it's losing its surreal character and becoming boring like reality.

That sounds promising. Rogen was used well in Sarah Polley's extraordinary TAKE THIS WALTZ, though in a supplemental role. I still think he's very funny in his first handful of big roles - his schtick just wore off pretty quick.

This was a remake of a French film but the character seems like he could have been written for Rogen.

I posted this picture I found on a discord I'm part of. 



One of the guys there spent two dozen replies or more pointing out to me all the ways it was obvious that it was AI, despite me repeatedly saying that I couldn't pick out the little microscopic flaws even AFTER he pointed them out and more importantly, I really didn't care.  I just thought it was a funny picture. 

(For the record, I did notice the mispelling and the fact that Sonic had two mouths, but just thought that was the artists "skill" on diosplay.
