(PS: I’ve decided to start naming all our episodes as though Wes Anderson were cataloging them)

I know we’ve been a bit sporadic lately, boys and girls. Apologies all around. There’s a myriad of things we could suggest that stood in the way but the reality is we do this for fun so we do it when we can. And believe me, childrens, this was a fun episode. We had a bit of a snag in how we put things together. But we overcame it and still put out a moderately well manufactured podcast that we hope you will enjoy. I’m pretty sure we talked about movies and probably some other entertaining things you’ll all share with loved ones around a cozy fire this evening. So put on your listening ears and enjoy Ron and Adam discussing topics that have been recorded and provided to you.

(0:00:05) - Podcast Tangents (21 Minutes)

We kick off the show by talking about the evolution of AI and the consequences of it going wrong. We discuss Dudezy, a podcast where AI controls the show, and Will Sasso and Chad Colchin's mission to control it. We then move on to the AI dilemma, a talk by the people who created the Social Dilemma. We bring up the statistic that 50% of AI researchers believe there's a 10% or greater chance that humans go extinct from our inability to control AI. We also talk about the potential for AI to create its own version of Jurassic Park, but instead of preserving humans, it would be a park where they are extinct.

(0:20:54) - James Gunn and DC's Future (8 Minutes)

Christopher and Bobcat get some rest before heading to the library. There, they discover an ancient book that holds the secret to lifting the hotel's curse. With a determined look, the two set out to break the curse and save the day. Later that night, they perform a ridiculous yet endearing ritual, breaking the curse and bringing peace to the hotel. In the morning, they wake up to find their attorney waiting in their suite to inform them that the inheritance is theirs. We wrap up the chapter with a funny prank and celebrity impression.

We also consider the potential of remakes, such as a modern take on Back to the Future, and the challenge of finding actors who can replace the originals.

Well hello there Cinemaster adjacent fans and welcome back to another relaxed episode of our spinoff podcast, Box Office Tangents. Today the Rental King and that fella from the North will be taking on a very topical tangent, AI. It’s a big topic so this may be Ron and Adam’s first bite of this particular take with more to come in the future. Is it a tool that could revitalize Hollywood? Is it the end of the world as we know it. Or maybe it’s just a way to make everyone look like they were in a cartoon version of Lord of the Rings. Whatever AI’s ultimate purpose is, our Cinemasters are going to give you their two cents. So snuggle up with your favorite build-a-bear and grab a soft pair of aloe infused comfy socks and enjoy a steaming mug of today’s Box Office Tangents
