All those millions Netflix and Scorsese spent on this cutting edge technology and it gets upstaged by a guy on YouTube?

Look up the word "deepfake" and try to understand its meaning, and get back to us.
Idiocy is no excuse for offensiveness.

😂 Frank Sheeran did look more like John Goodman than De Niro.

This guy doesn’t have access to the original footage so he’s starting with the already de-aged Deniro. Not really a direct comparison.

Couldn’t the special fx wizards working on the film also start with the same de-aged De Niro, R5? Who told them to stop?

I imagine Scorsese told them to stop.

Could you imagine if the deepfake De Niro is what we actually saw in the movie? I would’ve been floored. Instead that blurry bullshit distracted me the whole time.

The Netflix version doesn't even look like DeNiro. The Deepfake version does.

Admit this clip is impressive. However, what everyone said originally would still obtain: De Niro's even younger face would sit even more awkwardly on his more restrictive body movements.
All that said, the clip makes me want to see the film again.

That’s because they made a mistake of using De Niro’s old creaky bones. They should’ve used a young body double and put De Niro’s de-aged and deepfaked face onto him.

There are a bunch of deepfake samples on youtube.
They definitely look better than the terrible CGI versions.

Well why don’t the movie studios use it?

I've wondered this myself.
It seems like movie studios don't want to open that can of worms for some reason. Most folks believe that deepfakes, AI learning, and hardware tech will have progressed sufficiently within the next 3-5 years to make it possible to create entire movies starring what looks like Marilyn Monroe and other dead celebrities. It creates all sort of legal, copyright, and licensing nightmares.
Also, I can imagine the vain celebrities DEMANDING that their entire performance use deepfakes to de-age them. Can you imagine a Streisand acting opposite some thirty-something actor, but being de-aged?
That said, I'd give anything for a deepfake version of Carrie Fisher if they promised to do right by Princess Leia.

The deepfake Carrie Fisher is way better than the one they used in the movie. Maybe they didn't have the deep fake technology just a few years ago.
