Everywhere online now, every movie, every home video, has been passed through so many filters that people don’t look human any more. Nobody has any lines in their face, their teeth are florescent white, their eyes are filled in and have no veins. Nobody ever looks tired, or natural. Add to the mix the fact that everyone is getting lip implants to look like a blowfish, and I’m just tired of it. I miss seeing real human beings.

    I’m more confused to what era of film do you consider ppl looked real. We’ve been touching up actors to look less natural since Shakespeare

      Yeah but we weren’t very good at it until digital filters. In really old movies they make the close ups of women slightly blurry.

      People still looked human as late as the 90’s, even though they look like extraordinary people. Movies from the 70’s and early 80’s look completely different.

      Edit: I think they didn’t really start with the AI filters until idk, 10 years ago?

      One example is, look at all the men considered “muscular” they actually had body fat.
