AMC Opts Out of Screening AI Short Film After Online Backlash

AMC Theatres decided not to screen the winning AI-generated short “Thanksgiving Day” from Frame Forward’s AI film festival as part of its third-party pre-show, after online backlash over AI content in cinemas. The screening was arranged by Screenvision Media (which handles pre-show content for multiple chains); AMC said it was not involved in creating the content and has informed Screenvision that AMC locations will not participate. It remains unclear whether other theater chains will follow suit.

He laments the loss of character-driven films, outlines the discipline of lighting and planning, and notes how Team Deakins and outreach work aim to demystify the industry for newcomers while acknowledging a changing future for film.

Unveiling Tom Cruise's Controversial Movie Contract Clause Amid SAG-AFTRA Strike

Tom Cruise reportedly has a secret clause in all of his film contracts that prohibits the use of his likeness for merchandise, which is why his face is not seen on video game covers or merch. This clause has been in place for years, predating the current SAG-AFTRA strike. The strike has been fighting against the use of AI in film, and while Cruise has lobbied for SAG-AFTRA's concerns to be heard, his unique contract clause has sparked a debate on social media. Some applaud Cruise for protecting his likeness, while others criticize his connections to Scientology.
