Ultimately to me the casting matters less than getting Susumu Hirasawa back for the soundtrack.

Viridiant posted:Man some of you have a very different read on Berserk than I do. Through all the dark, awful stuff that's happened it's seemed to me there's always been an undercurrent of hope and I'm fairly sure that the note it'll end on is a hopeful one. That's my read on it. It has a solid feeling of "never give up" too that is quite fulfilling.

Not as huge as Grunbeld or Zodd. You're gonna need a lot of tall, musclar people for Berserk in general.

I was gonna say, I think Tom Hardy works. He did a p good job making Bane look intimidating in TDK and Bane is always potrayed to be a huuuge mofo. Gotta have compromises at least.

Yeah people like Schwarzenegger and The Rock and rarities. Albeit Guts's physique is fairly grounded compared to other Seinin protagonists.

Honestly Guts just needs to be huge so the Dragon Slayer can be comic-accurate and not look ridiculous.

Bautista is 50. Tom Hardy is 41. I get that Guts has a bit of premature aging going on, but still.

It'll also have to be made of like really light plastic because lol at anyone actually swinging around an unbalanced 100 pound mass of metal.

WARNING HUGE  EFFORT POST INCOMINGGood soup! posted:Did you pass the fight between Boscogn and Guts because lmao forever at that utterly pointless and hilarious change they made to the ending of it I actually didn't mind this change that much. Compromises had to be made and maybe at that point the studio already knew they weren't going past the Golden Age arc, so cutting off Zodd's scene wouldn't be as big as a deal if you didn't have to later reincorporate him respecting Guts. It was silly yeah, because the whole flag-jutsu took just as much amount of time as Zodd throwing his sword. Around the end of movie 2 I realised what was off with the movies to me. Having watched the 97 anime and reading the manga so recently I didn't notice it at first since I knew these characters, their past and their motivations. But when Guts was leaving the Band of the Hawk and Casca was conflicted over who to side with I started thinking "...but why???" Why does movieCasca care about wether movieGuts stays or leaves? In the manga and 97 anime Casca opens up to Guts after they fall to the river and tells him why he joined Griffith and how she feels about him yet understands she could never be with him. Then the Bonfire of Dreams is the breaking point where Casca realizes Guts is not just a rabid dog like she thought he was and the way she sees him starts to change. As it was pointed out by someone else, this moment WAS a huge deal for Casca Josuke Higashikata posted:How it looked to us The dancing scene that precedes Guts' departure, while wholesome (because GDI Guts deserves at least a moment of happines in one reality), ends up cementing Casca's feelings for Griffith even more than being used as an opportunity to connect with Guts. So by the point of the 3rd movie when they both have sex, while the scenery and the way it's portrayed is beautiful, the romance just isn't there. It ended up feeling like they both had too much going on in their heads so screw it, we might die tomorrow, let's gently caress. Granted, that was also probably what was going on in the manga/97 anime too, but there was also the emotional part. Guts opening up to Casca and revealing his past to her, and Casca comforting him. And then following this line of thought lead me to realize that I also didn't care that much about movieGuts since his past is reduced to a 30 second shaking cam seizure inducing flashback trip and never adressed again. His slowly warming up to the band of the Hawk is also heavily toned down. Same goes for Casca and her past, her feelings towards Griffith and her jealousy of Princess Charlotte. As I was watching the movies I liked them because I already knew this story, and I respected and loved the sense of grandeur the studio tried to give them with the battles, the scenery and the music. But for someone whose first experience with Berserk is just the movies, they move too fast from plot beat to plot beat without taking the time to let you know or care about the characters. I think that if each movie had 20 more minutes all these issues could have probably been fixed. To summarise the movies looked nice and you can tell a huge effort went to them (unlike the 2016/17 piece of crap)but it lacks the heart that makes Berserk what it is.

I mean, they were playing with animation the team seems to have been not as skilled with but had the capacity to really go the distance with in theory, unlike 97 where limited animation was utilized all the time so we need to have story carry that weight-load the actual drawings just couldn't half the time. If the loving JoJo team and really good directors got involved, 3D berserk wouldn't be an issue.

Berserk is not currently scheduled for May 24th issue of Young Animal so sadly, it might be another hiatus (even if only a shorter one) after this issue. It's monthly so it's not likely to be on the one a fortnight from now, especially with Golden Week.

Very good long effort post. Everything between the splash in the river and the bonfire establishes the next hundred chapters. Guts identifies his true character and Casca hers. At that point, what we've known has been acknowledged: Griffith stands between them. (Go back and compare 97, the movies, and the manga: Cave, 100 man battle, bonfire.) Their later reconciliation happens because Griffith has been removed from the picture. Certainly Casca wishes to save him, but her understanding of Griffith has changed. Guts finds the same and, thinking of him as a friend, wants to save him as well. Now, what will the next reconciliation be? Casca returns, Griffith has shown his true colors and Guts his.
