    1. > “I don’t say this disparagingly — how could I? This movie went on to make millions of dollars. But I look at a movie like ‘F1’ and I’m like, ‘F1’ was made by AI,” she said with a laugh at the Colorado event. “Wasn’t it? I mean, the structure was exactly the structure that you would learn in school. The actors say the lines exactly the way it would be written if a computer was writing exactly what would be the right thing for that time. And they were able to dominate the technology to make something big and beautiful and potentially where a lot of the information comes from other places.”

    2. F1 is very well made but definitely feels like ‘Movie: The Movie’ for pretty much the whole runtime

      That Netflix movie War Machine with the Reacher actor gave me this same exact impression

      Have certainly felt that way from many movies in the last year or so…That was not one of them.

    5. Even though i think it was shot well, and i enjoyed the f1 racing theme, i don’t get the hype. It felt very…. sterile, she’s right.

      i feel like most sports movies are pretty generic, safe bets are hollywoods favorite

    7. We used to have a word for this called “formulaic” which was a thing before computers and AI

    8. So it looks like she will never star in any movie by F1 director Joseph Kosinsky anytime soon.

      Not a fan of racing movies but I do know the race scenes in this movie were all genuine F1 races and the actors scenes were also real using modified F2 cars, definitely not AI🤷‍♀️

      I liked this movie because I have a sim racing rig so racing movies are fun for me. That said, at some point I was definitely watching for the entertainment of the races themselves, but the story itself had already started to bore me. If I wasn’t into racing, I think I would have quit part way through.

      The whole thing was basically just a commercial for F1, so I’m not surprised it felt like it was pooped out by a corporate marketing team

    12. I mean you could honestly say the same for Maverick and Oblivion, and I say that as a huge Maverick fan

    13. what do you think they were really doing in area 51 before hollywood died? **A.W.E.S.O.M.-O 4000 KNOWS**

      It absolutely wasn’t, they spent years putting cameras on cars during an actual race.

    15. Sucked, no matter what. Definitely wasn’t because Apple wasn’t pushing it hard enough.

    16. That final speech by Pitt was pretty cringe to me. Way too drawn out and the way it was portrayed seemed just too hokey and glorified that brought me out of the moment.

      That movie was insanely boring and predictable. The old washed up renegade changes his ways to prove to the younger bright-eyed hopeful that racing is their true love. Coolest thing about the movie is the actors playing make believe got paid to drive F1 cars. Good for them, terrible for the audience.

      It was laughably a collection of competition movie tropes that never once allowed me to believe they were actual human characters in the film.

    19. Jodie. You’re entire True Detective experience felt like AI to me. Horribly written and the dialogue was such a bore.

    20. That’s pretty insulting and not something you should just say about a movie especially when your in the industry

    21. Unlikely_Suspect_757 on

      I couldn’t finish this movie. It was like watching all the cutscenes from a racing games story mode

    22. I don’t if I would say the scripts are written by AI but it would not surprise me if we found out writers hired to churn these out at a fast pace rely heavily on AI to help them write them.

      It’s more than just being formulaic now.
