Just stop after the train scene. It was a decent matrix sequel until they started trying to be a matrix sequel.

Looks great! Just waiting for ANYTHING to update so they’ll support SDXL, I know ComfyUI supports it now but I can wait a bit.

Even Denuvo cracked games can’t be compared because AFAIK the latest cracks don’t remove Denuvo, they just emulate it.

After refining to 2048px with img2img I usually send it to extras and upscale to 4096px with 4x-UltraSharp but for the most natural looking result I will just scale the 2048px image up in photoshop and then overlay the UltraSharp output somewhere between 40-70% opacity. But then it also depends on the style of the image, for some images that I really want to look their best I’ll do both UltraSharp and R-ESRGAN-x4+_anime_6B and then mask out the areas I find to look best between the two in order to get the fewest artifacts. Maximum sharpness isn’t always the best, some mild blur and even film grain/noise can do a lot to make an image look really natural and beautiful.

I was late to the party on Captain Marvel and was expecting to hate it but came away decently satisfied with it and I think it’s in large part due to the cinematography. It wasn’t anything mind blowing but I was surprised to see a more indie-like aesthetically pleasing feel to a lot of the shots in it.
