Guillermo del Toro Would ‘Rather Die’ Than Use AI

There’s a debate among filmmakers about using artificial intelligence in their work. Some, like the Russo Brothers who used it to alter voices in their film The Electric State, are exploring its potential. Others, like Guillermo del Toro, are strongly opposed – he reportedly said he’d rather stop working than use A.I., even stating, ‘I’d rather die.’ The case of Tilly Norwood, an attempt to introduce an A.I. actress, also highlights the controversy.

45 Years Later, Everyone Remembers the Wrong Thing About Star Wars’ Best Movie

I think what really sticks with people about The Empire Strikes Back is that incredible twist at the end – it completely blew my mind when I first saw it, revealing a shocking connection between the hero and the villain! Everyone knows it now, of course, and it really changed how stories were told in movies. Even today, it’s still considered the best Star Wars film and a perfect example of that exciting New Hollywood era. But beyond that initial shock, it’s amazing how much of an impact the film had and continues to have – that’s a huge part of why it’s still so beloved. It’s easy to get caught up in that reveal, though. I often think people forget just how much the movie did for science fiction and for the entire Star Wars saga as a whole.

The Rookie’s Original Pilot: The Unseen Romance That Almost Was

After the show found its footing, the developing relationship between Tim and Lucy became a central focus.

Timothy Olyphant Is the Western Genre’s Modern Clint Eastwood Replacement

When Deadwood first aired, the Western genre felt outdated. The traditional Western hero – tough, silent, and legendary – seemed impossible in a more cynical and self-aware era. However, David Milch created a different kind of Wild West: a messy, brutal place where the first attempts at civilization were taking shape. The show centers on Seth Bullock, played by Timothy Olyphant, a man trying to establish order in a lawless world. Olyphant’s performance gives a raw edge to Eastwood’s famously restrained characters. Bullock isn’t a mythical gunslinger; he’s a man struggling to control his own violent impulses.

10 Years Later, This ‘Star Wars’ Character Is Still Disappointing

The Star Wars sequel trilogy holds a significant place in the franchise and brought many compelling new characters to life. Following The Force Awakens, viewers were equally captivated by these new faces – both heroes and villains – as they were by the original characters. However, one particularly promising character, Finn, didn’t receive the attention he deserved. He represents perhaps the biggest missed potential of the entire trilogy. This isn’t a reflection on John Boyega’s excellent performance; rather, the writing and promotion of the character fell short of what he could have been.
