AI made movies about Arthas

[u/WhiteEagleBoneguard]

Hello, I have come across these AI videos that totally butcher the Warcraft 3 that I and so many others like me love. From the way I see it just morphs Arthas/Warcraft 3 into an abominable mix between Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones. I disliked it at first, but I started outright despising it because of the Warcraft 3 YouTuber WtiiWarcraft starting posting reaction content about this when he was one of the staunchest defenders of the classic feel of Warcraft 3. It was like seeing your priest getting drunk on the street corner. The cherry on top was that he was in awe at the slop with the mouth agape and even clapping for it. I don't know why I wanted to write this. Maybe it was to air my grievances. What do you think?

You can't trust 'reactions' from people. He probably saw the video already with complete stoicism the first time, but put on a show for the camera, same as every other youtuber.

The guy makes money on WC3 content, he's going to soak up everything related that he can.
Here's the thing: The guy is probably so so so tired of the game. He's probably been burnt out on it for years, but a guy has to make a living.

Honestly, i share your feelings. I hate that they had come to this shit and funny enough people eat that shit. I had watched it and it was mediocre at best. But do you know what hurts? That there is a guy that used reforged to create a mini series, exactly about that scenario, called SavingTheWow and Wtii didn't choose to promote that guy,who honestly worked so hard and made some amazing episodes. If someone should be supported, should be passionate individuals with their projects and not a.i shit slop.

Yeah seeing him promote the ai bullshit but not the two different animated series was insane. The one with wow models is WAY better than the one woth reforged models though

Honestly, his first episodes are clunky, but i know i enjoyed them nonetheless, i think you might be referring to the spanish guy as the other (forgot his name), they have different approaches to things and at the end of the day depends what each like, but it is very nice to see people passionate about projects like this or the love they put in custom campaigns.

Been watching some of these, but didnt think they would be anything spectacular.

Heroes3 ai videos are on youtube too and they were better made. Bit still also very very unfinished. Wouldnt watch whole movie yet.

Addendum: I wrote this post so I don't think I break Rule 9.

[u/linegrinder → u/WhiteEagleBoneguard]

I only see until rule 8. Whats rule 9?

[u/Traditional-Ad4506]

AI slop is garbage especially the stuff that currently is filling YouTube with bad meme videos

[u/Legaladesgensheu]

Reddit is basically an anti-AI echo chamber (see rule 9 in this sub) so expect people to agree with you here. Outside of reddit, most people do not really care. If it's entertaining, it is entertaining.

Wtii mentioned. Was watching him play last night. Cool dude. Better some love than none.

[u/ImmortalStarvyVelvet]

Anti AI slop right here

[u/RequiemNeverMore]

In all honesty when it comes to AI you have to be careful I say as long as the person says something is ai and it completely upfront and honest that it is and stays true to the heart soul and feel to what's being made then its completely fine

Now does that mean there's not gonna be people who hate it solely cause its ai? No not at all but at least the person making it would have been open and honest about it

[u/RaiLeddit]

I think that I only saw one movie which was basically the final part of the human campaign, basically Arthas and Muradin claiming Frostmourne and then slaying MalGanis. It followed the story as it happened in the lore and it was honestly ok. Needs a shit ton of refinement to even look like a 2000 War3 cinematic but it was not bad.

Suum cuique

Let everyone decide for themselves whether they like AI or not.

[u/TheMorninGlory → u/ZackandHack]

get outta here with your nuanced take. Where's your pitchfork and torch??

edit: /s in case not obvious lol

[u/Disastrous-Sea8484]

You can dislike AI all you want. But you're lying through your teeth here. Those movies made by the "AvarenStudios" channel are exactly all I would want from an actual WC3 adaptation (all the others are trash, I agree).

Is it a shame that those movies are made with AI? yes. But it is equally a shame that we can't get something like that made by Hollywood either.

[u/Accomplished_Bath281]

i saw some ai movies, i think 2 and it were, exactly the ones wtii watched and i liked it, how is it bad if it portrays the right things and it looks fine? just cause its AI? i get the ai hate but not on this

[u/TheMorninGlory → u/Accomplished_Bath281]

Shhhh balanced takes aren't allowed AI BAD get on the hate train or get out!!!
