Likely many other, I’ve been grossed out by some of the shit getting churned out with generative ai. But it’s also made me notice some of the existing things that give me the same feeling.
Poorly translated stuff, as often seen on cheap Chinese imports, has the same uncanny valley awkwardness. It sounds like English, but it isn’t what an actual human who spoke English would say. And if we want to talk about an algorithm that’s gone rogue and is destroying the world while trying to fulfill some arbitary metrics, there’s always late-stage capitalism…
Anyone else notice things like this?
I know what you mean, but I still can’t tell the difference between The Ninja Force, Ninja The Protector, Full Metal Ninja, and Ninja Terminator.
Those movies were produced en masse with little to no regard to copyright, contracts with actors or global quality and that pretty much fits the definition of slop.
Aside from the so-bad-they’re-good ninja scenes (always a pleasure to see a ninja turning into a wooden stick in a park), I just find those movies boring.
I think you’re talking about those like bootleg ones that were hastily assembled pieces of shit from stolen Run Run Shaw films, etc
Right?
I was talking about movies made by Godfrey Ho in the 80s
