So all those fake review quotes from… Megalopolis The actors who pulled the trailer last week were apparently ai after all. Not only that, but the person who was in charge of the trailer materials, Eddie Egan, was removed from the film's marketing team.
That's all according Deadlinewhich reported on Friday that the artificial intelligence of the whole affair was confirmed in an investigation after the fact. Neither Egan nor Megalopolis Lionsgate studio intended to falsify the quotes, which purported to be critical notes from contemporary reviews of Megalopolis Past films by director Francis Ford Coppola.
According to some of the quotes in the trailer, critics had said that… The Godfather a “sloppy, self-indulgent film,” while Apocalypse Now It was “an epic piece of trash.” But as Vulture noted When the fakery of the quotes was first reported, the actual reviews to which the quotes were attributed not only did not say those things, but were often written in praise of the films.
