LORD OF BOOTY posted:It's definitely interesting but... it's 50 episodes long and 50 episodes of that kind of bleakness is an absolute loving slog to get through. The ending is also kind of a wet fart that comes completely out of left field and doesn't really make a ton of sense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ipr-wS5iBv0

I miss how over the top old anime voice overs were simply because they were trying to fit words to the lip movements. If character's lips are moving, we need to put words there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2Q6AwrGUkQ Japanese version lines: "Wow, spooky case! They got us looking for vampires now!" "Actually, the vampires of legend were tragic creatures. Eternally young, but forever craving human blood."

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Oh my loving god I know right? I thought whoever originally mentioned that scene was kidding Angel Cop is interesting. Remember that Asian guy who said, during the whole whitewashing debate with ScarJo, that you can't strip out the Japanese-ness from Ghost In The Shell because it's integral to the plot, even though there's almost nothing Japan about the original GITS manga, which is why it's an universal hit? That's Angel Cop. It lauds the greatness of Japan, especially it's technology and economy, but came out right about the time the Japanese bubble collapse. And it's brutal actioner but to most anime fans, it's that anime where they changed the dialogue because the last episode veers into anti-Semitism, revealing the overall plot is the Jews of trying to destroy Japan through "leftist" terrorism. The localization team, with it's Jewish translator, changed this to wholly Americans, which matched with the original manga's plot, but you can find on Youtube the scene with the original dialogue (which was translated by the same translator) matched with the English language version .

Sinners Sandwich posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kIe6UZHSXw It's hard to tell whether the film is leaning toward being earnest or sarcastic about its whole premise. Like the stuff in that trailer is a 50/50 split of the two, and I think it works a lot better when it's just sorta owning its silliness than when it's trying to undermine it by pointing out how silly the idea of power rangers, and all the trappings that come with them, are. I never thought I'd say this about a Power Rangers movie but there's honestly a good movie buried somewhere in there, but god knows if that movie will be what eventually comes out.

So Diesel has like Seagal levels of self regard and character protection happening, right? That always results in lovely movies. Still love Steven Seagal's tantrum on the set of Executive Decision.

I'm super excited for the power rangers movie because I am a mid to late twenties year old male and I loving grew up on that poo poo What excites me the most is that we get actual giant mecha fights in broad daylight instead of your usual dark rainy occluded environments

In almost any other circumstance I'd be super excited for at least the idea of a big budget hollywood take on a sentai show. I have fond Power Rangers memories and I still like giant robots, but man, this isn't doing it for me. I dunno, it seems to be the usual adaptation thing of they're too ashamed of not being taken seriously so they have to edge it up to keep face or something. That said though, I'd still throw my hat in the ring for a Kamen Rider take. It can't be worse than the US TV series at least.

The edgy stuff was kept out of that new trailer but the older one seemed more like that with a lovely school life and Rita attacking Trini in her home saying she's killer power rangers before while choking her

Outside of the obvious nostalgia, what keeps interesting me about the Power Rangers movie is that they seem to want to convey that having powers like they do is loving awesome. You're suddenly and majorly jacked, you've got a robot dinosaur, and techno/magical armor. Plus, when Bryan Cranston Face tells you not to use them for personal gain, you know that such a warning is best heeded.
