It is not a widely known movie, but there is a 1950s style World of Warcraft movie one which I thought was really well done. Perfectly captured both the feel and style of Warcraft and the 1950s schlok fantasy feel.

Here it is. I would have watched the shit out of this as a kid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvImHQAW0Fw

that one was good - i did laugh at the orc strumming on his sword around the fire though. Hilarious

The voice over tone was spot on for that period. There are going to be more and more of these aren't there. I wonder how these will look once the AI models are drawing on the more numerous AI generated content?

yeah - i was wondering about that as well. Feedback loop of garbage in garbage out once there is more AI generated than base material to draw on.

It's amazing technology. Makes my 35 year effort to make movies and cartoons just a bit pointless now. So I've embraced it and made a Dave Vs The monsters movie trailer. https://youtu.be/Wg_zgZbJTDk?si=hlqsMymaeeZJAaYO
