Is…is the crossbow for the snakes?

The Michael Douglas movie where he holds McDonald’s workers at gunpoint until they make him a breakfast sandwich five minutes after they stopped serving breakfast?

daaaad, you promised you’d stay off the fediverse!

The entire industry composites final shots with Nuke. Every damn studio in VFX is training or has trained its compositirs to use CopyCat, the Foundry’s generative AI roto/paint tool. So like… this is a lie.
