Although A.I.-generated vids like these are still in their infancy (and weirdly-creepy due to their limitations), I really liked the ‘retro’ stylings and effort put into these couple of short examples. And the overall colour-grading also makes me yearn for a big-budget, live-action sci-fi or fantasy done with a similar 50’s look overall. Which reminds me, I must have a re-watch of ‘Forbidden Planet’ again for it’s wonderful, now ‘old-school’ production design and settings.

Check out some of the other neat examples over there, such as ‘Dune’ and ‘The Matrix’ amongst others - https://www.youtube.com/@abandonedfilms/videos
