Marvel’s Secret Invasion is already causing a commotion on social media, though not for reasons that the studio may have hoped.
The series, which debuted on Wednesday with just one episode, has touched a sore spot after director Ali Selim confirmed to Polygon that the opening credits were generated by artificial intelligence. Designed by Method Studios, Selim said he thought that the idea of using AI for the opening credits fit into the themes of the show.
“When we reached out to the AI vendors, that was part of it — it just came right out of the shape-shifting, Skrull world identity, you know? Who did this? Who is this?” he said, adding that he doesn’t “really understand” how the artificial intelligence works, though it piqued his interest.
Of the process, he explained: “We would talk to them about ideas and themes and words, and then the computer would go off and do something.

Any concerns that the general public had lost interest in the stories of Westeros following the lackluster "Game of Thrones" finale have been rightfully put to rest, with last week's debut of the prequel series "House of the Dragon" earning the biggest premiere in HBO history. The world built by acclaimed author George R.R. Martin has proven to be one that appeals to a massively diverse audience, which is one of the most impressive attributes of the series. But it has unfortunately saddled it with the impossible task of also appeasing massively diverse perspectives, many of which are often in direct opposition of each other.
Perhaps the most obvious example of this is the endless debate over the way "Game of Thrones" and now "House of the Dragon" depicts violence, specifically misogynistic violence, on screen. The general discourse surrounding the way violence toward women is portrayed in media is often...

Now that the world has come to a halt due to the Covid-19 pandemic, people are having more time on their hands than they know what to do with, which has prompted many creative endeavors, especially from celebrities. John Krasinski, in particular, whose A Quiet Place Part II was delayed, has done a lot to help us get through this period of self-isolation.
With more than 5 million confirmed cases and 300,000 deaths, most countries around the world are still implementing strict social distancing laws in an attempt to curb the spread of the deadly disease. If only it were that simple, though. At this point, self-isolation seems like the most logical way for the masses to help defeat the novel coronavirus, but spending so much time at home without anything to do isn’t exactly a walk in the park. While most attempts from celebrities to help us through the current pandemic have been in vain,...

Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans, the Cats movie trailer is a thing of horror.
2019 has been quite the year for big-screen CG gambles. First, the internet had to process Will Smith's as the Genie in Disney's live-action Aladdin remake, then Sonic suddenly had human teeth. On top of all that, when the admittedly visually impressive The Lion King was subsequently released, fans of the original animated classic struggled to comprehend why. An existential crisis of CG tire fire proportions has been burning relentlessly online over the last six months, and last night, the backdraft hit.
The trailer for Universal's Cats - an adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical about a series of cat people who slowly introduce themselves until one of them ascends to a higher plane with the hope of being reborn - dropped a day early in what can only...

Each of the trailers for John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum have been met with a glowing response on social media, and now that the film’s first critic reactions have surfaced, it’s beginning to look like the movie might well live up to the hype.
Predictably enough, much of the praise is directed at the set pieces, suggesting that Chad Stahelski’s trilogy-closer is going to continue the franchise’s run as one of the most stylish action properties of recent years. What’s more, it sounds like the upcoming flick is going to deliver some serious canine action that will bring the whole series full circle.
#JohnWick3 is Awesome. Some of the action set pieces are so insane you’ll wonder how director Chad Stahelski and his team filmed them. Saying that, the @Halleberry/#KeanuReeves set piece featuring her dogs might be my favorite. Wait till you see this one.
