I think they should remake How to Marry a Millionaire but this time they call it How to Bury a Billionaire and it’s about Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe, and Betty Grable murdering the oligarch class

I feel like it’s time for another tournament but I’m out of ideas. what kind of polls would you like to see that are just so so sexy

it is genuinely so disappointing to me how so many journalists have fallen for the hype talk around AI to the point where they're writing articles about AI "resurrecting" Val Kilmer or saying "the late actor will play the character." their fucking job is to explain concepts to people and for some reason SO many writers, from up and down every section of the new york times to the guardian to everywhere else, continue to parrot the cheap phrases of the AI tech bro developers, implying to their readers the AI will legitimately do exactly as the dead original would. "resurrect." "will play." they're gonna upload some scans of a dead actor's face and an algorithm will figure out roughly how to string the pixels together. then the director and producers will tweak that however they see fit to get the performance they want. all they're doing is making a new CGI character that's copied off the look of a dead man. this is basic stuff made possible by a bot that's great with patterns and yet again and again I read articles—not ads! articles!—that frame this as a machine capturing the soul of a person, that imply this thing THINKS. journalists do your fucking jobs you're doing the hype work for the ai conmen

by the way in case this blog wasn’t clear fuck ICE fuck the murderers + kidnappers calling themselves ICE agents. this blog loves immigrants and anyone who thinks otherwise fuck off. Just want to be real clear since this is an old Hollywood blog and I don’t want anyone thinking ooooh she loves old movies and traditionalism FUCK THAT I stand with everyone hiding terrified right now and the people on the streets
