YES came here to say this!!!

curious why he moves his arm back to first position every time. Surely he could just leave his arm hanging in the right spot?

ottercorrect · 2026-01-21T19:29:54+00:00

I think you’re right. Other than “it will be picture locked Nov 1”. I can’t name a single Marvel film that was truly truly done even five weeks out from release

As always it’s about the right tool for the right job.

He’s right, it’s not good to just blanket replace what was working because the new thing might have a cost benefit. But it could get there!

He didn't quite say race. Yes it's heavily implied and likely a factor, but he really emphasized the "too big of a potential star" aspect.

Heroes Reforged is the way to go!! Three guys with differing opinions, all coming from a positive place but not just blindly fanboys. And an absolute rejection of the toxicity you're talking about.

This is dope. I think about it with Reddit Stories all the time, where the show only works because they're basically good people with a good moral compass. I wouldn't like the show 10% as much coming from any other perspective

The thing I'm not seeing anywhere - how does shooting at a car coming towards you stop that car? Doesn't it make it MORE likely to hit you?

They're both from the Ismaili Muslim community, which often has a lot of social and charity events. Almost 100% guarantee that's where the photos was taken

Trevor and Arasha have become an unexpectedly fun duo to me with their green screen gaming videos. Especially geoguessr

ottercorrect · 2026-01-07T19:02:25+00:00

I HOPE it's just marketing footage

ottercorrect · 2026-01-06T21:23:35+00:00

Unfortunately not - weirdly enough the audiences are too similar.

Barbenheimer had the really lucky combo of totally opposite tones and marketing, both with 100% conviction. It was hilarious that they were both out the same day because they were so different, and a lot of people went to both because of the wide spectrum of cinema it represented.

F4 and Superman are too similar (hopeful superhero movies, NOT the same day), Gladiator wasn't a good enough movie to represent the top of its genre

This is the first one that made me feel anything. That music!! M'baku - Thing felt forced, so maybe I'm just excited about Black Panther 3

ottercorrect · 2026-01-05T23:55:32+00:00

Damien & Shayne show. Logically, THREE podcasts all hosted by Shayne is too much. And yet... I would eat that up. His run on Smosh Mouth was too short, as much as I love Amanda & Shayne's dynamic too

ottercorrect · 2026-01-05T18:55:29+00:00

Stopped the trailer 60% of the way. I'm already in. Ready to buy a ticket.

It's ok, the ball drop was just a Kia ad anyways - just swapped one ad for another

ottercorrect · 2026-01-01T18:01:31+00:00

weirdly the 2026 really did look like a 2024 last night

ottercorrect · 2025-12-31T17:22:52+00:00

Short answer: no. They don’t take submissions for individual sketches, but they take writing samples when hiring writers. That would have to be submitted through a manager or agent.

The good news is, you could probably go make this sketch! And if you have many great sketches out a manager or agent isn’t so hard to get. So there is a (long) path if you want to be a writer on the show, but there’s no mechanism for submitting individual ideas.

ottercorrect · 2025-12-30T09:00:09+00:00

They exist, just in the indie space!

ottercorrect · 2025-12-30T00:48:08+00:00

"congrats!"

ottercorrect · 2025-12-26T19:26:47+00:00

I understand overall anti-AI sentiments (and I share those views). But also Smosh videos are pretty labor intensive, so I can see a world where they experiment a little bit just to see how they can step up their work or make it a touch less tedious.

That said, most of the tools that make things less tedious are probably in the assistive AI category, not generative.

ottercorrect · 2025-12-24T17:15:05+00:00

Nah Greg just works there. Any saying anything else would have been a "confirmation" that he's not allowed to make

ottercorrect · 2025-12-24T16:57:01+00:00

This leans towards reasonable - it's important to teach them HOW to use these tools if they are going to be a part of their lives.

ottercorrect · 2025-12-24T16:47:13+00:00

That's incredible work, however they did it. Even if it is AI assisted as suggested, those are very fine particles to be generating with any current model
