"But they've gotten other episodes wrong!" I'm not denying that Death Battle has made incorrect verdicts before and since. Hell, I've had my fair share of disagreeing with them. But that's just the inherent nature of powerscaling in general.

Lowkey Death Battle. Everytime I've seen someone shit on that show, they ALWAYS bring up Gaara VS Toph as this gotcha card of them being frauds even though: a) The crew have since gone on record saying they no longer agree with their original verdict b) GaaraToph is over a decade old now

So, It's official, Isekai Showdown has a pre-alpha build. A bunch of us spent today poking around and looking over the proof of concept and messing around with the system in-client. I'm so excited to show you all more and get more into the meat of the development and I'm really proud of the team!!

GDT's reddit AMA spitting fire www.reddit.com/r/movies/com...

reddit comment:

Hello! Did you intend the ending of Pan’s labyrinth to be real or in Ofelia’s mind?

Guillermo Del Toro's reply:

My interpretation, and it's exclusively mine, is that it's real.

Because there's two things. One is what people call “The Shining Question.” The Shining Question is, Who opens the door for Jack to get out of the fridge? And Ofelia is in an attic with a guard outside her door, and she draws the door with the magic chalk, and she shows up in the labyrinth. So, the only way she could have gone into the labyrinth is the magic chalk. And the flower is real at the end. The flower that blooms in the dead tree. And the reason I think it’s real is because—and this is why I'm in favor of the human factor in art—I think that art does transform the world. You know?

Think about it for a second. One of the goals, with all this movement, is to make you believe that art is vulgar. That art is nothing special, and anybody can do art. That is like me telling you that I'm faster at running than Usain Bolt but I “run” in my motorcycle. Well, that's not the same. That’s not the same at all.

Art is important, and they want you to believe it isn't. It's part of the idea of control. The goal is not to have artificial intelligence. The goal is to foster natural stupidity. The goal is to foster you not looking for answers, and to trust yourself entirely to an engine. Look at the way we are dipping our toes into these things. We are starting to ask the machine, Is this true? For now, there's a correlation between reality and what the answers of the machine are. For now. But soon, we won't even investigate further. We will be told it's true. And if the machine is in the hands of somebody who should not be trusted, then your reality has been completely and utterly fucked. Because your intelligence ends at the question. You don't seek the answer. It's given to you.

Q: You recently mentioned that AI creates 'semi-compelling screensavers' and that you'd 'rather die' than use it. As a filmmaker who relies heavily on practical effects and creature design, what do you think is the biggest thing lost when a computer generates an image instead of a human hand?

GDT:

The three quarters of the process that gave you the chance to think of the idea that people don't think about without that process. Meaning, AI can get you to the middle really fast, but there's a dialectic with the process that gets you to that top 10%. I'll give you an example with the Pale Man.

We sculpted it as an old man, with a face. And then I said, Let's take out the face. This happened because I saw a photo of a manta ray and the poster for Don Coscarelli’s Phantasm. That combination, which happened at two different times during a week or a month, are not permutations that are chemically part of an equation. They are alchemy. And then I said, Take out the face, and then I said, Let's put the eyes on the hands. This triangulation happens because I spent a month or two months living with the idea of this creature. And it's not linear.

AI is like a super-fast engine that makes semi-sentient permutations of things that are already done. Creation is things that have never been done. Coming to exist.

And the second thing is the loss of the apprenticeship that one has as an artist. You're never a master; you're always an apprentice. This is a kinship I have with, for example, Chris Nolan. When he showed me The Odyssey, there’s a scene when Matt Damon is floating in the stormy ocean and I asked him—because we were talking about practical effects, and how great it is and that we both always use a maquette or a model—and I asked him, How did you do it? He said, “We put him in a storm in the ocean.”

And you're gonna find that 30% of a great image occurs accidentally. You know, either a drop of water hits the lens, or the camera shakes. I remember when in 1993, '94, Jim…

On a sidenote, I'm surprised no one's talking about how the Metroid Suit doesn't have the arm cannon like it did in Dread. We got a brief glimpse of it in gameplay, so I'm curious to see what that will entail.

Samus' Metroid Suit. Notice the lack of an arm cannon on her right arm.

Same Metroid Suit, this time without the bright neon background.

GAME DROID @gamedroid2000.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

I've said it before, but the biggest problem Command's story has imo is this massive "have your cake and eat it too" mentality. The game beats you over the head that Fox is in the wrong, yet it also frames Krystal as the ridiculously bitter ex who is willing to compromise her morals to ruin Fox.

Just tried out the demo for Wild Blue Skies, and... Yeah, I see why people are calling a derivative Star Fox clone. The gameplay does feel like a worse copy of SF64 and the level design felt lackluster. Given what I've heard/seen from reviews, I can't see myself getting the full game.
