>kicks off the modern AI horror genre
What did you think of Ex Machina? Do you like the modern batch of AI horror movies that seems to be really blowing up right now? Favorites in the subgenre? Least favorites?
>>
>>221987051
ive had this on my "must watch" list for forever, is it any good?
>>
>>221987122
Its mid in every sense. It has some interesting scenes but you know exactly where its going to go right from the beginning. There are no real surprises. You can guess everything before it happens. All the reveals make you go "yeah, figures..."
>>
>>221987122
I loved it. It's one of those movies that I find so good I don't want to watch it too often because I don't want it to get old/boring.
>>
>>221987170
>it's mid because it didn't subvert my expectations
go be a fag somewhere else, you fag
>>
>>221987122
it's only known for a dance scene
>>
>>221987051
Not bad.
In my view, the concept is a more grounded version of terminator.
>>
>>221987051
>>221987122
i enjoyed it. effects are good. story is gripping. naked robot titties. good ending

it was good
>>
>>221987205
You are thinking of M3gan although that one could wind up getting a CU.
>>
>>221987051
Boring film school project tier movie, but the scenes with the robo slut and beta male were alright
>>
>>221987051
This unremarkable movie didn’t kick off shit, there has been AI horror in every decade for the last 60 years
>>
>>221987395
no ex machina also has a dance scene
>>
>>221987551
But M3gan is the one known for the dance scene.

I expected it to subert my expectations like modern millennial slop, but instead it subverted my expections by not subverting them and it turned out to be an alright film that I enjoyed. And yes I would fuck the robots.
>>
>>221987195
That's not the same as a predictable plot anon.
If the weak pervert man ended the movie dominating the innocent robot waifu and he got everything he ever want then it'd be subverting expectations for the sake of it.
If from frame one of the house you can guess exactly how the plot will play out and it does in as straight forward manner as you could tell the story you get a Ex Machina.
>>
typical indie slop with a whore trying to carry a film with her tits, her acting is bad, script and dialog are bad. concepts are interesting and unique, but very forced and cliche

its like 7/10 movie that gets overrated by plebs
>>
>>221987122
i'd never call it one of my favourite movies but i can enjoy watching it anytime. it starts a little slow
>>
>>221987470
Yes but we are talking about the modern AI horror subgenre. Ex Machina does seem to be the start of that.
>>
This subgenre is really blowing up.
>>
>>221987051
it's not really a "genre" so much as it is several movies just copying this exact one verbatim

I have seen it called AI Concept subgenre. I think that term is pretty good.
>>
>>221989437
No one is saying there is not a dance scene in Ex Machina. But to say it is the modern AI subgenre movie remembered for its dancing is ridiculous. That is M3gan.
>>
>>221989202
It's at least a subgenre.
>>
>>221989437
>haha he’s dancing
americans would literally clap if they saw an ape spinning they’re like children
>>
>>221990223
Maybe but not necessarily.
>>
>>221989618
Yep.
>>
>>221987681
>indie slop
nigga how is something produced by Universal "indie"?
>>
>>221987607
>Hasn't been here long enough to remember how we had an immortal ex machina thread with the dance scene posted every single time

west world was the real kino that was too much of a truth nuke for them to even keep on hbo max

ex machina and companions were pretty entertaining tho
>>
>>221992359
>>221992394
Fuck off. Or else.
>>
>>221992429
When it comes to Westworld's rating it is a firm C.
>>
>>221987122
yes
>>
>>221987470
Conceptually the movie kicked off the new genre.
>>
>>221988127
What specific thing does Ex Machina do that other previous AI stories didn't?
I like the movie and think it is well made, but I am not sure I would say it broke new ground.
>>
It's a conservative masterpiece. The main character is a representation of how Northern Europeans see females and how stupid and vulnerable they are to manipulation.
>>
>>221993744
It is not necessarily new ground but it reignited the AI horror genre.
