K-Pop Demon Hunters was recommended to me but I am very disappointed. The movie starts and the first thing I see is what looks like AI generated visuals touched up by humans.

This might be my new favorite Sony Pictures Animation movie ever!!!!!!!!!!! KPop Demon Hunters excels from start to finish in every facet, including its animation, music, characters, and story. Sony is definitely showing us, "how it's done, done, done".
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 296 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post).
