I love that series of cartoons!

There's enough truth in that to give me a headache ...... [tinfoil] ;/

Am I the only one that hates these robopolitical videos?
I agree with the points they try to make but I hate the format.
-
No, you are not the only one. I find them very annoying, and have yet to watch one completely through. And that is despite generally agreeing with the message.

Someone should put actual threads from DU into these videos. That might actually be entertaining.

The robovoice annoys me, if there was a transcript I'd be much happier with that.

The robovideos is a neat concept--anyone can cook one up with out much skill--but it's annoying how it's becoming popular. That website, for example, could be done with 2 actors and commodity video hardware. Videocameras are practically free nowadays. But instead of actually producing a video, they do the text-to-video thing. BECAUSE the text-to-video technology is available, it will be used, and that's what annoys me; people don't have value judgement. It's kind of how I like synthesizer technology in principle, but it annoys me when people use synthesizer technology when they would otherwise have made 'real' music, it's just the synthesizer software is 'easier'--a judgement which springs from the false notion that it is somehow equivalent to the real thing. That's the depressing flip side of new technology...society lacks the value to keep it confined where it really belongs.

"Oh, no! Why?" ;/

Yeah, that's the sad part, I know too many people who think like the woman in the video.

This is the first time I've seen one of the robovideos, so it doesn't turn me off. When I see one made by liberals, I'm sure it will.

Why bother with live-action? The acting would be just as wooden.

With voice actors being cheaper than crackwhores, there's really no excuse. :laugh:

Unless you've actually had to work with voice actors before....easier to get a good performance from a crack whore than a voice actor....and you're contractually obligated to pay a voice actor..... :facepalm:

I loved it, who cares if it's a robovoice, the message is what counts.

none of these can com close to the ones on red eye. ;)
oh, and. "Charlie, we're going to candy mountain." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsGYh8AacgY) :laugh:
