Published my first piece at @wired.com today, about a string of AI thrillers that have bombed (most recent being the hopelessly naive Chris Pratt vehicle 'Mercy'), the backlash to Darren Aronofsky's YouTube slop take on the American Revolution, and a grotesque nostalgia-bait Super Bowl ad:
Hollywood Is Losing Audiences to AI Fatigue
Entertainment about or made with artificial intelligence has been missing the mark with viewers over the past year.

In Minneapolis, people are literally singing resistance before marching to the hotels where ICE agents are staying—inviting them to defect and join us in solidarity. It’s an action rooted in compassion, courage, and collective humanity. Transforming fear into shared power.

There is something magical about watching and analyzing films you don't like. Reading bad scripts can also be a priceless experience.
I went to film school, and it’s always been this way. Just because you study Film Theory, it doesn’t mean that some films aren’t a slog to sit through. But hey, we all have to eat our vegetables. My generation just never complained about it to our professors. 📽️🎞️📚

Critic’s Notebook: Darren Aronofsky’s ‘On This Day… 1776’ Demonstrates That High-End AI Slop Is Still AI Slop

The return of Brett Ratner is comparable to rape. Attempt to rape the audience. That cannot go well. We hope people have the same reaction to RUSH HOUR 4.
