And the factory replicating the robot only because it had a physical model isn't my idea, its in the episode itself where we are shown the laser scanning the mouser and only then they can be replicated. Even if we assume that a blueprint is enough and the Technodrome could do the job, it still needs someone in the operators seat, and Krang's "hands", while enough to untie a Knot, are clearly still not enough to operate all that heavy machinery.

I was thinking of a feasible way of actually making this project a reality. With how fast AI is becoming better and faster in perhaps only a couple of years we'd be able to get AI to copy the voice of actors and just have the AI say the lines. I think it's the only way of making this project actually happen.

In 10 years AI will be so advanced that not only we could use it to make new shows but we could also force it to watch them

I see a lot of people here talking about the buying of the FW cartoon and why hasn't Viacom done it or thought to do it or some such, but... who says it's even up for sale? Honestly, LionsGate has got it pretty good having the distribution rights for it, so I doubt they're in any hurry to sell it off. And you can't forcibly buy something that's not for sale.

Well, I guess this could be a strange new chapter in the ownership of the show.
https://twitter.com/tmntnft It seems we are entering into the NFT era: https://medium.com/@tmntnft/official...t-a125370a95b4 [Originally posted March 31, 2022] Quote:

From what I understand about this, some guy in France has gotten the rights to the show or at least the the first 130 episodes, because his company was involved with the show's production. And because of some loophole, this allows him to turn the show into NFTs without approval from Paramount.
Yeah, this seems really stupid. |

I'm surprised they didn't just call them TMNfTs.

I was a little amused that it appears the official statement made a typo in identifying "Fred Wolf Film" rather than "Films" (assuming that is still the studio's legal name).
FYI, the official statement exists because of this Twitter exchange: Spoiler:

What I think is being alleged here is that because Paramount does not own the Fred Wolf show in particular, the company that does has the rights to do something new with it, in this particular case it is NFTs. However, Paramount was able to make those crossovers with the 2012 show on their own, which makes the notion that this other company can just make the NFTs seem sketchy. Not to mention that the whole concept of NFTs is itself sketchy. If they do in fact have the rights to create further derivatives of the FW show, why not make another season or specials instead of this dubious thing? Assuming there is nothing illegal going on here, I guess the reason they went for NFTs instead of something more traditional is because NFTs did not exist back when the show was still in production and is thus a right that did not transfer to Mirage upon cancellation, a weird loophole in the copyright but that's just a guess.
Regardless, it's NFTs, they're basically a scam that hasn't been legislated against yet. It's the the sketchier little brother of the already somewhat questionable art market. |

I just hope they don't end up making reproductions of animation cels and flooding the market to the point where it becomes hard to distinguish real from repros.

There's nothing sketchy about NFTs, I'll research into this to see if it's real and if it is I'll definitely buy some TMNT NFTs, let's see what I can get my hands on.
Edit: checked it out and project seems to be legit and yeah it's definitely some loophole they're using but it's legit. Definitely getting a few, depending on their price, i think they'll be expensive. Last edited by sdp; 04-04-2022 at 01:01 PM. |
