OK, the concept here is an eternally evolving top 25 so-bad-they're good movie list.

Rules:

1. Each individual can post once per day and do up to 2 "moves."
2. For a move, you can either add a name to the end of the list OR move a title up one spot on the top 25 list. If choose to add a title, it replaces the previous #25 (once we are at 25 titles, that is).

For clarity's sake you can use either "+ [movie name]" to add one or "^ [movie name]" to move up a spot, but I will probably figure it out anyway if you don't.

I will update the list regularly.

For example, my first post will be

+ PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE
+ THE ROOM

Giving us a starting list of

1. PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE
2. THE ROOM

The thing is, I asked Copilot to come up with a text description of the poster first, then make the poster. So it came up with a poster description its own policies wouldn't allow it to create. Very strange.

Not strange but logical according to copilot.

Direct request difference: If you skip the "describe first" step and just ask for the poster, the system interprets the title in a more open, theatrical way. It doesn't generate a problematic description before the image, so the request can pass safely.

So the second person's request worked because the system never had to commit to a text description that violated its own rules.

Interesting, I suspected something like that. I started going text first because the "title only" versions were often lame compared to the text concepts, and could be tweaked more easily before generating the poster. The thing is, I don't want to fool with it: if it won't make a poster or make it properly in two or less tries, I'll move on to another. I could continue asking it to continue to fine tune the poster, but it normally makes new errors when you try to fix something.

I broke my own rule I stated above with this one and generated it four times trying to get Copilot to get it right. This final try before giving up is OK, but I don't know why it insists on adding "Comedy" to the bottom, despite me telling it specifically to remove it in a previous poster.
