AI isn't exactly under control of its 'owners'. It's entirely possible this is a rogue thing, or that if not directed at a specific target they just randomly review movies? Anyway, I am just guessing here.

Off Topic Discussion / fine example of IMDb review bo...

Last post by zombie no.one - Today at 03:25:36 AM

can't say I expected a nearly 20 year old movie that was already showered with accolades by real people to get the 'review bot' treatment, but I was just scouring the IMDb reviews for HOT FUZZ (2007).

there are a whole bunch of consecutive reviews published on June 21st this year, which are all roughly equal length, they all seem to start off like they're somehow already halfway through the review, and all basically look like they were written by AI.

usernames:

wendymarvell-66
greyfullbuster-55
mirajane-00
lisana-44
lexus-33
lucyheartfelia-22

plus a few more similar...

clicking on their profiles reveals they have all basically reviewed the same bunch of other movies, including THE DRIVER, THE DOG STARS, THE NIGHT EATS THE WORLD etc etc

wouldn't it be very easy for IMDb to stop this happening?

also like I said a movie like HOT FUZZ does not even need the 'review-maxxing' treatment, so why are they there?

Eh, Obama seemed to enjoy it.......

Really?

Not likely, it was a publicity stunt.

I was gonna say, I liked him until hearing about the PBR.

Eh, Obama seemed to enjoy it.......

Really?

Well, that's the brand he brought up a few times early in his administration, albeit, he had a Bud Light at the Beer Summit.....

Bud Light is a bit more palatable than PBR. I've enjoyed it on occasion. I like different brands though.

Press Releases and Film News / RIP Victor Miller

Last post by sprite75 - September 01, 2026, 11:02:59 PM

Jesus f**king Christ, God.  Work on your f**king aim already.

Victor Miller, the screenwriter behind the horror classic "Friday the 13th," died on Monday in Alameda, Calif. He was 86.

Miller's death was confirmed to Variety by his son, Ian.

Released in 1980, "Friday the 13th" is widely considered a seminal installment in the horror canon. It widely popularized the summer camp setting and themes surrounding teenage debauchery, which to this day remain essential tropes of the slasher genre. In a recent interview with a "Friday the 13th" fan site, Miller said the inspiration behind the iconic film came from, at first, an attempt to follow in the footsteps of John Carpenter's "Halloween," which debuted two years prior.

Miller was born in New Orleans, La., in 1940. He is survived by his wife, Tina Thurston Miller, and his two sons, Ian and Josh.
