They were just as annoying before the AI slop too, when people made shitty “fan” trailers masquerading as legit using cut footage from other real films.

Ok fair point. My real issue is with fake trailers, AI generated or not.

Same goes for news. If you try to look up some more obscure news almost all of the results are some AI garbage that makes no sense.

What was interesting about them was always the casting they thought up. Like, I saw a Dracula one staring AI Keanu Reeves and Elizabeth Olson. What sort of casting is that? A teenage boy who has only seen John Wick and Marvel movies thought that up. They probably never even knew Keanu was in the Bram Stoker’s Dracula and dojng a Dracula movie would make no sense for him.

Looking at you Screen Culture and your AI-generated thumbnails.
