Future generations might believe some of these Seedance 2.0 videos – unearthed from a long-buried flash drive – represent the state of the art in mid-20th- and early-21st-century cinema. Perhaps they won't notice the odd movements, lack of blinking, stilted dialogue, and fixation on hand-to-hand combat.
I hope that's not the case, but if you consider how actual film is decaying at an alarming rate and that digital content is nothing more than stored, everlasting bits and bytes, this scenario isn't quite so far-fetched. That, of course, would be a calamity.
