Think about the difference between drawing and photography.
Dragonball Z has iconic design and visuals.
They have made how many live action attempts?
The ones I have seen are beyond horrible. They lack some esoteric quality that the drawings embody. The hair alone I don't think can ever be done with real hair.
Simpsons. Street Fighter. Even Batman. There's some decent live action Batman shyt but the Batman from TAS universe is more iconic than any of the live ones.
Photography has not and cannot replace that artistic design element
The actual human production is the "drawing" in this analogy. Versus the AI movie which can be made with the press of a button.
The latest Top Gun joint. I can't remember being that excited during a movie in forever. It was because they were filming real people inside real military jets. A "blooper" where the jet changed trajectory and the actor bumped his head is in the final cut. Totally unplanned but adds that visceral realness that makes you cringe.
AI will be used to make whole movies which will be "perfect", but I guarantee you we will still value practical effects and live performances. We will probably get a real movie a few times a year which will be seen as the fine dining of media among a sea of fast food media.
