Hi guys, I am looking for feedback on this hands on tutorial (which follows the tutorials on tensorflow.org - Text classification): https://rhyme.com/c/classification-of-movie-reviews-with-tensorflow/10365?source=reddit
The hands on part means that the learner gets a Virtual Machine for free where Jupyter Notebook and Tensorflow are pre-installed and they can simply follow along the tutorials and try out code all from within their browsers.
Any feedback on accuracy, delivery and pacing would be much appreciated!!
That's also why we needed backstory and motives for Snoke, an explanation for how the lightsaber that once belonged to Anakin Skywalker was recovered after being dropped into the atmosphere of a gas giant, some history for the Knights of Ren, etc. to be explained within the films themselves so that moviegoers wouldn't be confused by this mess.
Adaptations are double edged swords. If they are done well, they can be an enjoyable experience as well as bring new people into the fandom as is the case with the warhammer novels and video games. If done poorly they can leave a bad taste in the mouth of many as is the case with the last season of Game of Thrones. This is because many things have to be added, changed, or outright cut from the original source material to make the adaption "work" according to the creator making the adaptation. Sometimes multiple creators make multiple adaptions of a piece of fiction like Batman and Judge Dredd, both of whom had different takes on the source material.

Judge Dredd (1995) had a more comedic, b movie tone, but was more accurate to the comics in costume design and extras and did align with the more comedic aspects of the comic. The Dredd (2012) movie had a more gritty, yet more near future setting to it with the more streamlined costume, but Karl Urban never removed his helmet like in the comic

In the case of batman movies let's compare Batman and Robin's (1997) vs the Dark Knight Rises (2012) depictions of Bane. Again like before, the 90's version had a more comedic tone while the 2010's version had a more gritty realism to it but the 90's version did incorporate Venom as a part of the character while the later version had him be more about strength and intellect.
This comes back to 40k, which has had grimdark lore, but also comedic and/or satirical elements to the franchise. The main question is what would you like to see cut, added, or changed in any 40k adaption while taking into concerns like budget, audience size, costume design, etc. Would you like a campy b-movie orc kill fest? Or a more a more serious sci-fi story that challenges what is humanity about the primarchs and the other human civilizations like the Olamic Quietude, Interex, and Diasporex?
It may have some similarities with the movie Serenity (2005). Not 100% sure on that final sword fight thing, but pretty sure, and on one scene, the protagonist goes inside one of those hot-air balloons and finds out there's a really old man that watches everything

I think this movie was from the 2000s or the 90's. There would be scenes where the main characters would repeatedly tell the elephants to run (either from helicopters or from poachers). The main character was this blonde girl or woman, but I'm not precisely sure of her personality disposition.
For most of the film, touching the elephants was considered taboo but there was a significant scene where one of the poachers gently stroked the elephant, presumably because he had a change of heart.
But those are all the details I know. Every time I searched on google I would struggle to find results: Usually something like "A Far Off Place", "Whispers: An Elephant Tale" or various elephant documentaries, but not the movie I was looking for.
Currently mine would be called "My So Called Imaginary Life" where I practice conversations for situations I'll never find myself in all alone in between being witty on the internet and showering after masturbating.
Alright
So we all know that the NBA is a soap opera, but let's shift for a second and pretend that the script is real, and it's for a television series or feature length film.
So in order to keep viewers happy, get the writing Emmys/Oscars, be heralded as a visionary, what would be the best way for the story to go?
In my mind, it begins with who we think is the main character. On one hand, Zion is the easy pick: the most hyped prospect in god knows how long coming into a historically non-basketball city that just lost its franchise star. He's the heir-apparent to the league.
On the other hand, choosing RJ as our protagonist could be interesting as well. It's very much a Mozart v. Salieri Amadeus-style story. He was the projected number one pick going into college, only to be dwarfed by the presence of his teammate.
So there's our decision. I'll list some ideas I've had, but feel free to sound off in the comments.
ZION AS THE MAIN CHARACTER
Win: This is, to me, the least interesting option of all of them. There's no subverted expectations here. Zion wins as people project him to. Boring. We knew this was coming. In my mind, the only way to redeem this would be to have Zion have a bad game, only to be bailed out by his teammates. Could set up an arc where people start to doubt his talents, and praise his teammates over him. Could serve as a crash back to reality.
Loss: Zion losing would be interesting, especially if RJ goes off. A bigger slam back down to earth. He begins to doubt his own talents, his teammates start to resent him if he begins to play hero ball. Allows us to set up RJ as an anti-hero/villain.
RJ AS THE MAIN CHARACTER
Win: This is my favorite of the four options, but only in a specific situation: The Knicks win but Zion goes OFF. In this scenario, the Knicks and RJ escape by the skin of their teeth, barely containing the monster that is Zion. Especially if RJ has a bad game, and is bailed out by his teammates, he starts to bond with them and we can start to learn each of their individual talents.
Loss: It's inevitable, but it's the classic. Even if Zion doesn't go crazy, it's the loss we expect. Our tragic hero just can't catch a break. Even if he scores 30/10/10, all that Zion needs to do is have a monster dunk for the media to move on from RJ's statline. It also sets the tone for the rest of the season, as the Knicks are going to be losing A LOT more for the next 12 episodes or whatever.
So what do you guys
