Rules for Movies & TV Discussion

  1. Any discussion of Disney properties should contain a (cw: imperialism) tag. If your post isn't tagged appropriately it will be removed.

  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

  3. On Star Trek Sunday only posts discussing how we might achieve space communism are permitted. Non-Star Trek related content will be removed and you will be temporarily banned until the following Sunday.

Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.

Honestly shocked to discover this was not an Israeli production.

Two British-Indian brothers in the UK, it seems like.

Who funded it?

Edit. Apparently they spent $2. I figured they at least spent $50K if not $100K.

according to the press they've put out it only cost $2k to make

Heh. I figured they at least spent $50K if not $100K.

Does it need funding if it's LLM-slop?

Pretty sure he's British-Iranian? This appears to be one of them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashkan_Kooshanejad

Interestingly someone attempted to remove something from this wiki yesterday. This section:

He is the CEO and co-founder of Oorbit Inc. Oorbit raises $5M from Mark Cuban, Deadmau5 and more for metaverse and one of the founders of Auxuman Inc. Citation: https://venturebeat.com/2022/03/17/oorbit-raises-5m-from-mark-cuban-deadmau5-and-more-for-metaverse-platform

The article this cites is gone, deleted by the original website. Very strange.

I have dug this up: https://www.gunder.com/en/news-insights/client-news/oorbit-raises-5m-series-seed-financing

Gunderson Dettmer represented London-based client Oorbit, an emerging metaverse technology startup, in its $5 million Series Seed financing co-led by HOF Capital, Mark Cuban, and PIXELYNX, a company launched by international DJ Deadmau5. Oorbit’s platform enables users to experience high-quality interactive media, events, marketplaces, games and other metaverse content from its partners.

In the announcement of the transaction, Co-founder and CEO of Oorbit Ash Koosha said, “Oorbit is demystifying the major technologies that will play the biggest role in the growth of Web3 and the metaverse; blockchain, cloud streaming, NFTs, fintech and more. We are combining the best parts of these complex technologies to enable episodic entertainment that is not just incredible but also approachable, for all audiences. This round of funding will support growth and platform expansion.”
