It is weird. Tolkien hated the "machine", and yet, the only way to get a Tolkien-accurate Tolkien adaptation in any form is the machine now, because the humans are messing it up beyond belief. (Yes, I know THESE images are not JUST AI, but most of the Tolkien-related images I've seen in the last 1-2 years, have been made with AI, speaks volumes. Especially if you consider that there were video games, card games, and a billion dollar TV show.... Imagine the stuff we could have if the propaganda industry was actually the entertainment industry.
That's right. I don't like the purely AI generated images as the often look too masculine for my taste. Elrond will most likely be based on Hugo Weaving which is horrible- not at all my kind of elvish...
@@AlexSonicsMusicTo be fair, male elves are supposed to look masculine. Not rugged, but masculine none the less. According to Christopher Tolkien, his father hated the idea of pretty boy elves and was furious when they were portrayed as such. I love Hugo Weawing as Elrond, but here's a tipp none the less - AI will only make Elrond look like him, if you actually name Elrond in the prompt. If you only describe what Elrond in the books looks like (or your mental image of him), the result will most likely not look like Weawing.
